Tim's Bistro in Southampton

I can only say good things about this restaurant.Food is excellent, service is excellent.The chef and his staff are the best.You must try the restaurant if you looking for a place where you can have good food.The place is very cosy.But book in advance because the Bistro is always fully booked.Can't wait to be back.

What a find. Fresh fish rules here. Delightful salmon crayfish avocado starter, and mains were fish specials off the board. Fish cooked perfectly, simple flavours, good ingredients and really good value for @£15 for a main.Lots of other stuff on offer on the menu which I'll get round to I'm sure but I'll keep tucking into the fish for now!Lovely staff looked after us very well.

An amazing little restaurant with a lovely atmosphere, lovely friendly staff, very attentive and food to die for. Couldn't believe the price for the quality of the food and they certainly don't stint on the quantity. Can't tell you what the pudding are like because I had no room for one. You MUST book, all tables were reserved. Photos represent 2 starters and 2 mains.

I don't think I've ever had a Surf n' Turf this good, the meat came out sizzling on a pan! Exceptional service and A class food. All very fast as well considering the level of care that goes into it. However the one downside is they do not include a gratuity or option to tip via card; if this is fixed in future I definitely think its worth 5 stars.

We had a breakfast at Tim’s Bistro, they design beautiful restaurant with warm atmosphere. I ordered Eggs Florentine and my partner ordered small breakfast. The egg was cooked good but the spinach was raw. The taste and colour of hollandaise sauce wasn’t good at all. Small breakfast was good except the beans.

Went here as a group of 6 to celebrate a birthday. Small place, but tables were well spaced and staff were friendly and attentive throughout our meal, despite the tables all being full. Good choice of food between the menu and specials board. One of our groups mains were delayed, staff were very apologetic and this was taken off our bill without even complaining, which was appreciated. Everyone really enjoyed their meal and the flavours and portion sizes were great value for money. The chef and owner Tim and his apprentice came round at the end of our meal to check everything was OK, it was a nice touch. Nice to see a little business like this doing well, they clearly care about their customers. I'm sure we'll be back! Definitely worth a visit if you are contemplating it.

Excellent service and food. The place has a very welcoming atmosphere and when we left the chef himself came to thank us.Recommended 100%.If you love seafood, that's the place to go, with plenty of catch of the day on the daily specials. My wife loved, only down for me as a beef lover was just one option for steak, which was superb with peppercorn sauce, by the way.

Wonderful experience! The staff was truly welcoming and smiling, and the atmosphere is very relaxing. Huge starters (we had the camembert and duck confit), followed by very tasty mains (ribeye steak and bacon, chicken & chorizo risotto). We struggled to manage a chocolate tart dessert. The hospitality was outstanding, and we are definitely going back. Highly recommended.p.s the steak came with a nut free pesto on the salad, and as a person with a nut allergy, this is appreciated beyond words!

Excellent food and top notch service. Made for an enjoyable evening. Chef Tim even found time to come out from the kitchen to say hello.

Low key, personable, short but attractive range of options, with a good balance of seafood. Some V choices too. Service attentive. Food was...wholesome! For starters I had the (large) scallops with lardons, main the pancetta wrapped baked monkfish. Dessert was the chilled creme brulée. A nice glass of pinot to accompany, and paid a fair price for a throughly enjoyable meal. Fellow diners were quiet couples or friends. Pleasant and highly recommended.
