Best Chinese Takeaway in East Dulwich area?

Recommended Posts

I can highly recommend Tse's in Forest Hill, a long established restaurant (at least 15 years) that also do delivery or take away. Once you try their food you probably won't need to try anywhere else. I always know what to expect in taste and quality. I have also dined in the restaurant and everything, food, service, atmosphere is excellent. Noticed many regulars who were very obviously well known to the waiting staff.

Thanks Jah, anything particular you'd recommend having from there? I tried it a while back and didn't particularly rate it, but will definitely give it another go.

We like Home in Lewisham too. Some more interesting dishes, so my husband can eat his beloved tripe, and easier to order than Wuli Wuli as it's online. We and others have had the occasional late delivery from them but overall really decent.

Ooh, Home looks interesting - will try that one when I've got a bit of time to spare waiting.


Tse's is nice - better for eat in that delivery in my experience (good crispy duck too). Run by a nice family and agree there's always lots of regulars in there.

Good Luck was a brilliant take away.. certainly the best in E.D. but has been closed for many years


Hong Hong on Grove Vale is probably one of the best locally and my favourite.


Caf? Noodles Food un-predictable. Closes early at 10.30.. Very friendly staff.


Mr Liu is expensive and food is not that good. Sweeet gloopy. Staff indifferent.


Oriental Star .. average food. Cheap. Friendly staff.

EE House all the way (it is near the old Harvester in Dulwich). It used to be good and is now taken over by new management and after a couple of quick blips is even better now! Tried Magic Wok and i would say it is alot better! Seems quite competitive too.

Will try them next time then, but don't think I have a menu ....

I just wanted to thank those who recommended the Magic Wok. We tried them for a change and had really delicious food, including aubergine stuffed with prawns which is one of my favourites and hard to find. To top it all, to our astonishment, they returned shortly after delivery to say they thought the scallop content of one dish was too low, and they wanted to refund us ?2. Top people.

Tried magic wok last night. It was a nice change from the norm. Tried the aubergine prawn dish as recommended above. Very authentic tasting, a cross between aubergine and prawn toast. Wouldn't have it all the time but nice to try something new. My overwhelming feeling of the food was it tasted nice and fresh and tasty and I will definitely order from them again (even if they did deliver at 6pm instead of 7 as requested).

    • But all those examples sell a wide variety of things,  and mostly they are well spread out along Lordship Lane. These two shops both sell one very specific thing, albeit in different flavours, and are just across the road from each other. I don't think you can compare the distribution of shops in Roman times to the distribution of shops in Lordship Lane in the twenty first century. Well, you can, but it doesn't feel very appropriate. Haa anybody asked the first shop how they feel? Are they happy about the "healthy competition" ?
    • ED is included in the 17 August closure set (or just possibly 15 August, depending on which part of the page you trust more) listed at https://metro.co.uk/2025/07/25/full-list-25-poundland-stores-confirmed-close-august-23753048/. Here incidentally are some snippets from their annual reports, at https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/02495645/filing-history. 2022: " during the period we opened 41 stores and closed 43 loss-making/under-performing stores.  At the period-end we were trading from 821 stores in the UK, IoM and ROI. ... "We renogotiated 82 leases in the year, saving on average 45% versus the prior lease agreement..." 2023: "We also continued to improve our market footprint through sourcing better store locations, opening 53 and closing 51 stores during the year." 2024:  "The ex-Wilco stores acquired in the prior year have formed a core part of this strategy to expand our store network.  We favour quality over quantity and during the period we opened 84 stores and closed 71 loss-making/under-performing ones."
    • Ha! After I posted this, I thought of lots more examples. Screwfix and the hardware store? Mrs Robinson and Jumping Bean? Chemists, plant shops, hairdressers...  the list goes on... it's good to have healthy competition  Ooooh! Two cheese shops
    • You've got a point.  Thinking Leyland and Screwfix too but this felt different.
