"Tanyu Express Box Hill has quickly become my favorite spot for a quick and satisfying meal in the area. Although it was my first time ordering here the food came hot, fresh, and full of flavor. The menu has a great range of options, but the standout for me is how well they balance spice and seasoning. Everything tastes authentic without being overpowering. The packaging keeps everything intact even for takeaway, which is a big plus. What really sets this place apart is the staff. Even when it’s busy, they’re fast, polite, and genuinely helpful. They handled a small mix-up with my order without any fuss and made sure it was fixed right away. That kind of service makes a difference. Location-wise it’s super convenient in Box Hill, so it’s perfectfoe late night dinners. If you’re into bold, satisfying Asian food without the long wait or high price tag, you’ll love it here. 100% recommend and I’ll definitely be back. :)"

"This dish is very delicious and rich in flavor. The pot is full of fresh ingredients such as fish, green chili peppers, cabbage, and tofu, all cooking together in a hot and spicy broth. The bright colors make the food look very appetizing. The steam rising from the pot shows that it is freshly cooked and served hot. The soup appears oily and flavorful, which is typical for many Chinese spicy dishes. The fish pieces look tender and well-cooked. Overall, this meal seems perfect for sharing with friends or family, especially for people who enjoy spicy and warm food on a cool day."

"We’ve had the grilled fish here many times and tried several different flavours, and it has never disappointed us. The fish is always freshly prepared when you order, which really makes a difference in the taste and texture. Every visit has been consistently good. Definitely worth trying if you’re a fan of grilled fish."

"Really enjoyed my meal at Tan Yu! The grilled fish came out sizzling and smelled amazing. The fish was beautifully flaky and absorbed the savoury broth without being too salty. A medium portion was more than enough for two of us. The add-ons were fresh and matched the fish perfectly. The restaurant has a fun, modern vibe, and the staff were super attentive and friendly from start to finish. Overall, a great dining experience. Can’t wait to return!"

Definitely a great spot in Box Hill for authentic Sichuan-style grilled fish — will be back again!"

"Grilled fish restaurant in Melbourne. The fish was perfectly cooked—crispy on the outside and tender inside—with rich, flavorful seasoning. The side dishes complemented the main dish well, especially the fresh vegetables and spicy sauce. The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, making it a good spot for friends to gather. Service was friendly and efficient, with staff attentive to our needs. Prices were reasonable considering the quality and portion size. Overall, it was a satisfying meal, and I would definitely return to try other flavors on the menu."
