Absolutely fine Chinese takeaway. I’ve been using the chef for a year now and have had perfectly good quality food with nothing to complain about. It seems to be incredibly low rated given competency of the food. If I felt the food was substandard I would say something, but in my experience, this is a very solid Chinese takeaway. Upvoting to 5 stars for balance. Reality - this is a solid 4. Don’t be afraid to order from here

I have been going to Mr Cheff for many years. It is hands down my favourite Chinese take away. I have never been disapointed with the food. The service is fast and always polite and they are always happy to accomodate my partners special request.

Good local takeaway cooked with fresh ingredients and cooked to order... Does get busy at peak times so prepare to wait (or pop over to the local shops after placing your order to buy a bottle of wine to go with the food)... My usual go to & favourite dishes on the menu are the dumplings and prawn toasts along with the fried Singapore fried rice/vermicelli noodles... Definitely one of the good Chinese takeaways in Tunbridge Wells...

I ordered salt and pepper squid also soup and chilli oil the food wasn't bad but the chilli oil I put into my soup as I love this tasted horrible . Basically I think they made themselves with old scanky oil. I smelt It was honestly vile I just ate that ! I brought back they wasn't apologetic I told them to taste a bit he said yes it's chilli oil it was in a jug open on the side he made himself . I feel dog rough now my stomach is really not feeling good,the woman was rude just gave my £1 back and said that's all we have .Im going to report them to environmental health nasty nasty I never write reviews but this is one I cannot shut up about.

Absolutely disgusting food! Spent £60 here and it was all stone cold, hairs in the rice and gave me a gut ache ! Phoned them and they wouldn’t even give us our money back even if we brought it all back out the bin (as they suggested us to do) they still wouldn’t fully refund and they hung up on the phone. DO NOT BUY FROM HERE

Paid £60.00 for our food tonight and not only was it barely warm but there was also a hair in the food. When I rang to complain, I was asked what colour was the hair and how long was it!!! They asked me to bring back the food, but we had put it in the bin. They kept saying bring it back even from the bin. Safe to say, we won’t be back

My family and now my partner & I have been loyal customers of Mister Chef for years and after today I will never go near them again. I ordered three dishes and they were all inconsistent temperatures and I have serious food hygiene concerns. The chicken satay was in warm sauce, when biting into the dish it was warm on the outside and stone cold inside. Noodles & crispy beef the exact same, one bite warm and the next cold. I called to ask for my money back and was met with zero customer service by the lady on the phone, she called me a liar, she said because I had eaten some of the dish I could not get a refund, she refused to admit any fault and even picked up a different phone call TWICE whilst on the phone to me. She sent the manager to my house to ‘assess what refund’ we were allowed, he came and called me a liar, he said he had delivered to 100 people today and I was the only one to complain. I tried to calmly explain to him that they are a great restaurant but it wasn’t good enough tonight so I wanted my money back and he was SO rude. He shoved the money back in my hand and told me to never order with them again, to which I asked if he was honestly joking and he said he didn’t want customers like me. Shortly after eating the food my partner is feeling really unwell and is going to be sick. Luckily I feel ok so far, once I had one bite of the chicken and it was cold inside I spat it out. The entire experience has left me feeling uneasy and upset that I’ve been spoken to the way I have. I would NEVER order from this company again and I strongly think the council should look into this company because I do not think they have high standards and are making people unwell.

Very disappointed. Have been loyal customers for years. Slowly seen a decline in value and service. Placed an order this evening , really been looking forward to a Chinese meal. Paid nearly £40 for two and I initially thought something had been missed as so little. Portions were tiny not like they used to be. Full of onion and pepper to fill the dish up. Hardly any meat at all. The woman on the phone was very inpatient. When delivered not hot at all. Won’t be going there again. Ever!!! Can anyone recommend a good Chinese locally please??

Given the heighten COVID 19 issues that we are having, this is very worrying and I would suggest that the council's food hygiene team review their star ratings.

Ordered a Chinese from here as a last minute thing as our usual Chinese was closed. The lady on the phone was quick to take our order and was even faster putting it down. Never even asked for my name! She just said come in 10 mins. Got there in that time, guess it was a quiet day as she got my order out and recapped it back to me. Paid by card, what other way is there now?!? Food was nice and hot when we got home. Plenty of sweet and sour sauce with the chicken balls but found them to be quite greasy and a lot of batter. Apart from that we have no complaints. Would use them again but prefer our usual.

Firstly they got my order wrong. I asked for Chicken Sweet and Sour chicken balls, and they sent me Prawn. I am very allergic to shellfish and it a good thing I checked before biting into them. When I phoned up to say you sent me the wrong item, and they said I was a lair. Clearly I wouldn't order prawns if I'm allergic, and they refused to do anything unless I paid again. The food that did come was bland and boring. Will never order from them again.

Quite simply a big old disappointment, will never be ordering from there again. After the incorrect food was delivered the ignorant woman on the phone would not listen to any complaints insisting that it was not her fault and therefore not her problem. If the food was nice then the poor customer service could be excused but unfortunately nothing about the experience was enjoyable. Plenty of better Chinese restaurants in Tunbridge Wells which we made the mistake of not ordering from.

Ordered food for take away this evening for a family and friend get together, providing for 5 people.The food turned up late (after an HOUR), and half the food was cold upon arrival. We were already fairly disappointed with the service...ONLY then to find that the order was a diabolical catastrophe. 3 of our dishes were missing, along with 2 of the dishes which DID arrive being completely wrong!!!! We were very upset with the service, only then to be rudely shut down by the colleague behind the desk. She said we had to pay for our correct and original items to be delivered, and refused to listen to our valid points. ABSOLUTELY DISGRACEFUL customer service and won’t be returning ever again. DO NOT ORDER FROM ME. Shambles.
