Literally the worst. So dry, bland, cold and inedible which says a lot from us. Do not take deer from them! Waste of money and still hungry!

Once again, Tse did not disappoint me with the authentic Chinese foods and excellent service. The whole family absolutely enjoyed the experience of dining in Tse.

Rarely am i so impressed. This family run chinese in forest hill is a cut above in terms of service snd food quality. Fresh, thoughtful and skilled cooking in the kitchen with thr most friendly snd helpful front of house i dont think ive had such a great chinese restaurant experience for years. Too often the spring rolls are factory made and stodgy but the moment our starter came and they were fresh, light, homemade and tatsy i knew we were in for a treat. Thanks for all your hard work team, well be back snd recommending to others

We booked our usual pre xmas get together with family and close friends at TSE's. Yesterday was amazing. Fantastic food and service as usual. We always look forward to visiting there every year. A very friendly, cosy atmosphere as usual. I would not go anywhere else and highly recommend this lovely restaurant.

Tse's is by far the best Chinese restaurant in London. The staff are very friendly, the service is excellent and the food is absolutely amazing. Oh and the prices won't break the bank either.

We've been dining at this quaint restaurant for a number of years now. The quality and varied dishes never fail to impress. The staff are very attentive and willing to please. We'll keep on coming here as long as Tse's is still in business. Highly recommended.

Been eating in Tse's for couple of years and it's as good as any Chinese restuarnt I've been to. Warm, friendly, family run place. Unusual items on the menu, such as waxi ribs which are delicious, and high quality old favourites. I'll be going back!

Sweet and sour chicken was very hard. Refried hard. 8 year olds are major food critics. Chicken balls 10/10. Rice 10/10. Starters 10/10 (remember from restaurant sit down) Overall, highly recommended.

The crispy lamb smelled awful and the sauce with it tasted and looked completely wrong. Squid batter was hard and too deep and the other dishes were just bland. No idea why anybody rates this place when Fu House is just round the corner and is SO much better!

One of the main dishes delivered was incorrect (we received 2 x rice instead of a rice and a main), the restaurant was pretty unhelpful about this. refused to refund, offered to deliver it "next time" but I explained there wouldn't be a next time, so we had to accept the main dish an hour later than the rest of the meal. They insisted the wrong dish was returned. The meal as a whole was pretty much ruined. I was Offered a single can of coke as an apology. Food was fresh but lacking in taste.

Prawn crackers, egg fried rice, sweet and sour prawns, Ho Fun noodles beef and black bean sauce - Aubergines - all beautifully cooked, nice and warm without too much oil or salt. Would recommend a collection rather than a delivery. Very nice Manager too. well done.

I am so disappointed with the food I received from Tse's this evening. The won ton soup was ok but the salt and pepper spare ribs were not at all good. They were dry and overcooked and I'd hazard a guess that they were possibly a reheated batch, certainly not freshly cooked. Not nice at all. The crispy aromatic duck was not much better, again very dry and I found I was spitting out little bits of bone. I have had food from Tse's before and it's been fine but this time it was very poor quality. It was bad enough for me to say I will not order from them again. Delivery was on time but maybe that's because they don't get many orders! Just awful.

I usually enjoy a takeaway from this restaurant. However on this occasion there were a few things I was not happy with. TSE being one of the more expensive Chinese in the locality should provide a better size food portion. I was given 4 ribs in a container with hardly any meat. Unfortunately I don’t eat bone. The special fried rice was not only bland but cold. The squid portion was so small it was rattling around in the container. TSE you need to be a bit more generous to your costumers considering your prices. I won’t be ordering in the near future. Valerie.

Terrible service. Arrived 20 mins late and then no sauce for duck pancakes. When I called to ask them to deliver it staff member kept arguing that it was there even though I checked multiple times. Initially refused to deliver then said it would take 30 minutes which was too late as I was going to work (and takeaway is only 10 mins away).

I live in east London and work in south, I really recommend their vegetarian options, I have also ordered their ribs for my friends and they where fresh and good size portion.

The food was over 45 minutes late and just warm. I called the restaurant when the food was 15 minutes late and was told I couldn’t expect food to be delivered on time! I was told that the food was still in the restaurant and that there was no one to deliver it. I contacted Just Eat and they called them. I waited but nothing. I rang the restaurant a second time and they said that the head chef was delivering the food, which he did, some time later. My wife is pregnant and we had three hungry children. Not acceptable.

After months of searching for a "good" Chinese restaurant, me and my partner came across this hidden gem whilst visiting Forest Hill. Ever since, we have been regulars at Tses. Whenever we visit, we are always offered the same table, fast service and good quality food. The menu offers a good selection of classic dishes, however, nothing too exciting, and also a buffet option. The food is average priced but the quality is amazing. The combo meals are always great value for money and the portions are just right! The restaurant itself is clean, quiet and embellished with an authentic Chinese decor. Each time we've visited the restaurant, it has been very quiet ( I've never seen more than 4 tables ). The restaurant plays calm background music and has a waterfall/ pond in the entrance area which adds to the overall relaxed vibe. Overall, an amazing hidden eatery and very recommended!

Food arrived late, when I answered the door to the driver he just asked me to sign for the food, no hello or apologies for the late delivery. I also phoned the restaurant regarding where my food was and was just told my food is on its way. Bare in mind I've used this restaurant many times in person and they are usually very good. Via online their service is lacking. What I ordered didn't appear to be the same quality as other Chinese I also order from.

The food was 45 minutes late, and when it arrived was awful. The hot and sour soup tasted gone off or something. Worst noodles we’ve ever had - literally no flavour and mushy.

so they delivered the wrong kind of soup so when I called them they told me that there was a waiting time as they only had one driver, she also admitted to knowing about the mistake in my order and asked me if I would like them to redeliver my food today or next time. After waiting an extra 40 minutes for them to deliver my food, I was told that I needed to give back the wrong order if I wanted the new food. I proceeded to explain that one was in the bin as I had already begun eating it before I realised the mistake. I was then told to take the packaging out of the bin if I wanted my food as the restaurant wanted to the packaging. After arguing for 15 minutes, I was finally given my food. I was completely outraged at the service.

Tried it for the first and probably the last time today. All I wanted was a bowl of soup, which when it came arguably wasn't bad. Was told that I should have to take it away. Despite the fact that there were maybe two people sitting in the entire restaurant which on a Sunday lunch time I dare say speaks for itself. So fine, I sit and wait for twenty minutes as I was hungry. Go to leave and had to point out that the server was trying to charge me more than was listed on the menu.

Living locally, I have ordered from, and even dined in, at Tse's for a few years now! The food was always good, tasty, fresh and it's the only place I would eat at when I was pregnant!! However, I was really disappointed with my last order because Tse's food portions have reduced incredibly and the same food I used to order was not enough for us. It was the tiniest crispy duck with pancakes portion I've ever seen and my children did not get enough. I usually order beef with black Bean sauce or something, but we always order crispy duck for the children. It was not enough. I almost rang in to say they've mixed my order up, but remembered the driver had my receipt with the instructions on so knew they didn't mix it up! Less food, higher price :(

I ordered 2 hours before my chosen delivery time yesterday. The order was 25 minutes late. The pancake rolls were lacking in flavour although still enjoyable, perhaps seasoning? My curry was like water and not enjoyable and lacking in flavour. Overall I was disappointed as normally it’s great food. Perhaps they have a new chef. I will now think twice about ordering again which is a shame as was the better takeaway in my area.

Ordered sliced pork belly with garlic sauce and sea spicy eggplant. Sliced pork belly: Poor knife skills. Inconsistent thickness with pork slices skin attached together; fat and lean meat separated Bad garlic sauce. The Chinese name of garlic sauce is ‘garlic mud’ but the garlic here is chopped not blended. Tastes sweet and just slightly salty. Need to add light soy sauce myself to balance the flavor Eggplant: Tastes too sour and sweet. Amount of vinegar overwhelms the saltiness and ‘sea’ flavor which meant to be produced by dried salty fish or any seafood flavor. Poor knife skills. Green onion not chopped well The only authentic thing in this meal is my plain rice. Good communication and service. Added garlic white meat and fish-flavored eggplant Garlic white meat: Inferior sword skills. The thickness of the white meat varies, the skin between the white meat is not cut properly, and the fat and lean meat are separated. The minced garlic turns into granulated garlic. Too sweet and not too salty. You need to add some light soy sauce yourself to neutralize the sweetness. Fish flavored eggplant: Too sweet and sour. Add too much vinegar and sugar to mask the fishy and salty taste. In addition, the technique of chopping onions needs to be improved. White rice is fine Service quality is average
