The only criticism is it is soooo far from where I live. Besides that beautiful buffet.

There is a wide variety of cuisines available, from Asian to Western, fast food, and more. The buffet area offers a diverse selection of seafood, chicken, beef, vegetables, pasta, noodles, pizza, lasagna, fruit, and dessert. The best part is that 95% of the food is halal. The dining time is a bit limited at 1 hour and 50 minutes, but I still plan to come back again in a few months. The location is convenient, with plenty of parking available. The restaurant is spacious enough to accommodate large functions or gatherings. The staff are friendly, although I did not interact with them much.

You know what it 's like when you know you don 't want to cook at home and wanna go out, but just aren 't quite sure what it is you want. When I feel that way the answer is usually a local buffet. Visited the Highlands Hotel on two occasions in May for special occasions including to celebrate my dad 's birthday and was not disappointed. Huge variety for the price and I absolutely love the king prawns (unlike Kitchen Workshop in Crown where you have to pay extra), the divine lemon pepper calamari rings (I must have gone back at least four times for these), and so much more. Large dessert bar as well and just adore the variety of puddings and pavlova. The variety of food is so much better than Kitchen Workshop Crown, although you have to pay extra for drinks at the bar at the Highlands. Another small downfall is the dining window of roughly two and a half hours for each sitting you have to leave by the end of your designated session as well as the 'hot ' food occasionally becoming cold. Otherwise, love this buffet restaurant and will continue going back. Oh and almost forgot to mention that they have pokies at the Highlands, for those so inclined.
