The food here is amazing. Has a limited menu but that also means those few dishes are likely to be better. Had the black chicken herbal soup and turtle soup, both were fragrant and aromatic. The herbal taste is just nice and not over the top. The chicken meat was tender and fall off the bone. Also had ommelette with preserved vegetables and their jade tofu. Both were equally amazing and especially paired with the chilli they provide. Lastly had the yam rice and it was delicious as well. The drinks are put in a hard plastic cup with a lid, we had chrysanthemum and lime juice. Overall, very good meal and would definitely return to try again when I'm in the area

Tan Ser Seng Herbal Soup may be famous for their turtle soup, but did you know their chicken soups are just as worth trying? Rich, herbal and slow-cooked to perfection, each bowl delivers comfort and nourishment in every sip.

Here’s what we had:

🍲 Collagen Fish Maw Soup
Good for the skin and body. The base is actually turtle soup, but there’s no turtle meat—just fish maw and a silky, rich broth

🍲 Ginseng Black Chicken Soup
A classic combination of tender black chicken and ginseng. Light, nourishing and packed with health benefits like boosting blood circulation and digestion.

🍲 Cordyceps White Chicken Soup
This one is clean and refreshing but still packed with herbal goodness. Cordyceps are great for improving lung function, immunity and overall energy.

🍤 Handmade Prawn Roll
Crispy, juicy and a great side dish to pair with the soups.

Service highlight: The staff were friendly and helpful, even going the extra mile to shelter diners with umbrellas when it started to rain.

If you’re craving something hearty and nourishing, this spot’s chicken soups are worth checking out—even if you’re skipping the turtle.

This restaurant is truly a must go if you are a herbal soup lover! We dropped by during dinner on a weekday and it was packed.

We had both chicken soups, tofu and prawn rolls for sides paired with fragrant yam rice and drinks. We really enjoyed the soup and the chicken portion was huge too. Overall, the soup, dishes and service were good. We will come back for more!

I didn know it came with fried egg floss so i top up an additional portion. I added fish roe which add up to $9. I love that they use chinese cabbage which is more sweet rather than random vege. The sliced fish was tender and portion was generous too. I was hoping the soup have more umami but it didn. The soup could have been more too but it might be bc i added more stuff. It is still a good bowl of fish soup.

First time here during a rainy day and man I must say the soup really slaps! It’s really different from any kind of kopitiam herbal soup you can get and definitely the best that I have tasted so far. They are very generous with the meat and the platter too. Highly recommend to drop by. Also very easy to find parking!

Great local cuisine to have with awesome food quality. Arrived a little over 7pm and the place was packed, still managed to get seats right away. Their chicken soups do run out quickly so be early! They do provide takeaway services too. There is a open space parking lot right outside the restaurant but gets filled up pretty quickly from 6.30pm onwards.

Had both chicken soups, definitely recommended. Both soup has a different taste to it! Will also recommend the sides, especially the prawn roll, you cannot miss it. The yam rice was awesome to go well with everything! Wholesome dinner to have with family and friends.

螃蟹不大，但是肉很结实，鲜甜，中锅两个人吃，加两个配菜，加个小凉菜，差不多。
中辣，可以接受，味道香。下饭。

Recently, I was craving for some herbal soups and I must say, it was a thoroughly satisfying experience after trying out Tan Ser Seng herbal soup. Here's my take on the dishes I ordered:
Drinks:
I started with the Ginseng Chrysanthemum Tea, and surprisingly the tea was not diluted, which is often a common issue elsewhere. You can clearly taste the ginseng's earthy tones and the chrysanthemum's floral fragrance. It felt fresh and authentic definitely worth ordering and highly recommended.
Sides:
The Prawn Roll stood out for its size and quality. It was generously portioned, lacked any oily smell, and the ingredients inside tasted fresh. In my opinion, it was better than most zhi char stalls in Singapore. A great choice if you're looking for something savory and not overly greasy.
Soups:
I tried three different soups: the Cordyceps Chicken, the Ginseng Black Chicken , and the Fish Maw Soup. All of them exceeded expectations.
- The Fish Maw Soup was clean-tasting, with no fishy or oily smell from the fish maw, which is often a concern for this dish.
- Both the Cordyceps Chicken and the Ginseng Black Chicken Soup had rich, deep herbal flavors that showcased the quality of the ingredients used. They were hearty and comforting, perfect for a rainy day.
I paired the soups with Yam Rice, which was fragrant, filled with yam and mushroom bits, and surprisingly not oily. The flavor of the rice complemented the soups perfectly, and it was far better than what I’ve experienced at other soup stalls, where the rice is often bland or overly greasy.
The meal was not just delicious but also comforting and nourishing. It’s the kind of food that warms you up, both physically and emotionally—especially on a rainy day. I would definitely return for more, particularly for the herbal soups and that amazing yam rice. Highly recommended!

🔥 Who’s up for a hearty, sizzling feast? TANYU’s Grilled Fish with Seven Ingredients (毛雪旺烤鱼) featuring Qingjiang Fish (清江鱼) is the perfect dish to share with friends or just treat yourself to something seriously delicious. 🐟✨

This dish is a flavor bomb! Think tender, grilled fish swimming in a rich, bubbling broth loaded with beef and seven awesome ingredients: potato, black fungus, kelp, luncheon meat, beef tripe, winter melon, and bean sprout. Every bite is packed with bold flavors and textures. 🍲

Add some toppings:
🌱 Spinach for a fresh touch
🎋 Bamboo shoots for that nice crunch
🍄 Golden mushrooms for an earthy vibe
🍢 Grilled XL Squid – smoky, tender, and oh-so-good
🥣 Traditional beancurd – soft and silky

went for dinner ytd and ordered ginseng chicken soup and the famous turtle soup! Honestly haven’t tried turtle before so was a bit taken aback but when I tried it ytd, was pleasantly surprised that the meat tasted a lot like chicken but even more tender, do try if you’ve always wondered how turtle tasted like.

I think the sides like the egg and tofu were decently priced and tasted great! The in house chilli sauce was really good as well, make it a point to dip it with all the food ahahaha

One amazing thing to note is that the soups are refillable with the turtle soup being able to be refilled once only!

Tan Ser Seng’s ginseng black chicken exuded a comforting, herbal aroma, with tender meat steeped in a rich, earthy broth. The double-boiled turtle soup was impeccably balanced, offering a silky texture and deep, umami flavors that showcased traditional craftsmanship. Give it a try!
