Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often return for great value and generous portions, with several saying they have ordered for years because the prices let them eat often without overspending. Close behind is speed, with food arriving fast and extra hot, and a few call it fresh and tasty. One singles out the mixed meat fried rice for plenty of meat and light seasoning. Another praises the vegan options while suggesting a double check that dishes come without egg or dairy. Staff are described as friendly and willing to alter an order, and several call it the best takeaway in Catford and South East London. A minority are sharply critical. One found the food dry, salty and soggy, and said the person answering the phone was rude. Another received beef with ginger and spring onions with regular onions swapped in and only a single piece of ginger, found the spring roll greasy, and was told on complaining that the missing spring onions were a menu typo.

“This is the best Chinese in South East London. The staff are extremely friendly and considerate. They can alter your order to your liking. Very generous portions for more than reasonable price. If your not eating at China Express then your not satisfied.”
