Tim Bo Chinese Restaurant

Arrived here as second choice by accident. Previously known as San Choi but has been operating under new owners since about November 2016. Very welcoming greeting, comfortable furniture and decor. Waiters attentive and freely offer suggestions without pressure for the specials, which, believe me, are really good. Despite minimal noise dampening decorations, the level was surprisingly acceptable. Two of us had Peking Duck and Abalone for Entree and one had Tiger Prawns with XO sauce while my companion had a Medium rare steak with a magnificent sauce. Both were exceptional and the staff frequently supplied fresh plates and finger bowl as well as napkins to clean up our mess which we invariably...

arrived for lunch. offered water or chinese tea (not complimentary), 2 staff only hovered until we ordered. food came out individually and was still cold. some sent back to be reheated it was so cold. seasonal vegetables was about 1 kg of cold broccoli, undercooked, 2 bits of carrot ring and 1/2 can of chinese corn. supposed king prawns were very tiny. most meals (8 on table) were very underpar. even rice was too cold. considering they were bringing the meals out 1 at a time there was no reason not to be piping hot. on the bill we were charged for 4 chinese tea as they kept filling the teapot even though not asked to do so, and kept filling cups and water even when we said no. wine list only...

Called in for lunch with two business associates.The moment we sat down we were offered chinese tea and even though only one of us ordered it, all three of us were served the tea, which annoyed me as I don't like it at all.We ordered Peking Duck for an entre and it was acceptable, without being anything special, it probably needed a little more sauce.For a main course we shared a combination seafood with oyster sauce and a side dish of special fried rice. The was precious little seafood and a lot of vegetables.The two scallops appeared to be punched out stingray wings and not genuine scallops and the calamari and prawns were hard to find.The meal was just average.The service was adequate but...

We found this quite a welcoming place, headed up by the boss who is quite a character. The interesting menu features some dishes which depart from the usual Chinese restaurant fare and that makes Tim Bo interesting. Try the addictive crispy fish skins before your meal and consider the clams in shell in XO sauce. The food is fresh, servings quite generous and service is attentive. The place is both fully licensed and BYO. Good for a leisurely lunch and a laugh (if you want one). Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch

Visited Tim Bo mid- week and was surprised to see how full it was - always a good sign. The decor and presentation was very pleasing , the service was prompt and efficient. We went with the spring rolls and steamed dim sims for entree , which were both excellent. Then the crispy skin chicken and Singapore noodle to share - again top notch. Unfortunately we did not have dessert - the servings are on the generous side ! Would definitely eat here again.

Recently we took our visitors from Tasmania there for dinner. Recently changed hands with minor renovations. Service was fast and friendly. Typical Cantonese cuisine, tasty and flavoursome. Much improved on the old San Choi. Recommended

Enjoyed our meal. San Choi now was delicious (I had duck) vegetarian sprig rolls also delicious. Mains were slightly bigger than we anticipated but delicious. Good food, good staff, a little pricey but not over the top. Will be back

The renovations have been completed and the new menu has been tweaked. It may take some time to adjust if you were familiar with the old establishment. Reserviere jetzt einen Tisch
