Heritage souphouse in Singapore. I used to drink the herbal soups here many many years ago when I lived nearby. Recently I came back to eat here with my daughter and the soups are as good as I remember. Enjoyed the ginseng black chicken soup and cordyceps chicken soup! Very generous with their herbs here and great herbal fragrance. Recommend!
service was pretty good, with good vibes from the staff! the staff took the effort to seat us at a spot that was more cooling, and also told us about the complimentary ice cream 😋 they were also enthusiastic in sharing with us about the ingredients they used in their cooking.
we had the Ginseng Black Chicken Soup and Cordyceps Chicken Soup, both soups tasted amazing, and I could tell that the broth was cooked for hours. chicken was so soft and cooked so well that I enjoyed every bite. herbs in both soups were PACKED.
for the sides, we had the signature jade tofu and aged preserved radish omelette. both were cooked well and i especially enjoyed the jade tofu. will definitely be one of the places i would return to!
Absolutely loved our dining experience at Tan Ser Seng Herbal Soup! We ordered their famous turtle soup and herbal chicken soup—both were incredibly flavorful, rich, and nourishing. You can really taste the effort and quality in every bowl.
We also tried three of their recommended side dishes, and each one was delicious and well-prepared. Perfect accompaniments to the soups!
As a bonus, they offer free-flow ice cream, which was such a fun and refreshing treat to end the meal.
Authentic herbal soup to nourish our body. Complete it with delicious yam rice, handmade prawn roll, signature Jade tofu. Food taste just right, not salty nor sweet. Best healthy meal for the day.
ordered the chicken soup (1 white, 1 black), and very much enjoyed both. the soups were rich and flavourful, with a strong herbal kick. they rly didn't skimp on the herbs haha. also tried 2 sides, the omelette with cai po and jade tofu. as someone who doesnt especially like tofu, I was pleasantly surprised with how the tofu dish turned out. i also believe the waiter said the raddish and tofus were all made in house.
the service was fast and pleasant, was nice to see that the employees actually seemed like they enjoyed working there, which is rare to see. oh and also, they had free icecream! would go back again to try their other soups
I had a wonderful dining experience at Tan Ser Seng Herbal Restaurant! This place is a true gem for anyone who appreciates traditional Chinese herbal cuisine, especially their signature herbal turtle soup and chicken soup. The flavors are rich, authentic, and deeply nourishing—clearly made with care and high-quality ingredients.
The staff were warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable, taking the time to explain the health benefits of each dish. The ambiance of the restaurant is calm and comforting, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a hearty, wholesome meal.
Whether you’re a regular lover of herbal soups or trying it for the first time, I highly recommend this place. It’s clear they’ve preserved a long-standing tradition and serve each bowl with pride. I’ll definitely be returning soon!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Surprisingly large crowd at the restaurant - seems like there were many regulars. First time trying this soup restaurant, although we did not order the Turtle soup - still a great restaurant for other soup choices as well. Chicken soup and black chicken soup were thick, strong-tasting and had many ingredients inside - chicken was tender. Prawn balls were delicious - a must-buy in this restaurant. Tofu is their signature dish, which we also enjoyed (but not as much as the prawn balls!). Yam rice was super fragrant and definitely hits the spot! Chilli wasn't the spicy kind, but the slight zestiness to it does bring out the flavors of the dishes. Paired with chrysanthemum tea, which really surprised me on how authentic it tastes, very nicely brewed.
The ginseng chicken soup was very flavourful and chicken was super tender. 10/10 recommended
Stopped by the restaurant for an incredibly nourishing and comforting dinner. The Cordyceps Chicken Soup was silky, rich, and infused with a generous amount of tender chicken pieces that paired wonderfully with their chilli sauce. I also recommend complementing it with the Prawn Roll and Yam Rice. Altogether, the meal felt like a culinary deep exhale 😮💨🤍.
I've had their soups a few times now and I really love the strong fragrant aroma of the herbs they use! It really smells sooooo good. Highly rec their Ginseng Black Chicken Soup and Cordyceps Chicken Soup!! Also the prawn rolls were bigger than I expected and were super yummy 😋 The staff were very friendly too and I enjoyed my time there with my family.
Had the Ginseng Black Chicken Soup, it was so aromatic, rich but not overwhelming, balanced with the right strength of herbal taste, which in my opinion, very suitable for all ages. Chicken tigh was absolutely lovely and tender, fell right off the bones.
Shared with my friend, their popular side dishes, the Jade Toufu and Handmade Prawn Rolls. The tofu, crusty on the surface, while soft and silky on the inside. Furthermore, a layer of minced spinach on top for enhanced taste which I loved it and found it unique. The prawn rolls came with great flavours and texture, not dry and oily like many F&Bs do, instead they were juicy and flavours locked in each bite beautifully.
Unlike many soup outlets where I got thirsty after consuming them which required me to drink plenty of water, for Tan Ser Seng soup, not only I found their soup truly nourishing instead, enjoying it did not make me thirsty at all. In fact, the drink I ordered was not touched until I finished the meal.
The service staffs were friendly, quick to action. Despite a full house on a busy Friday lunch hour, our order came within 10 minutes of ordering. Totally impressive. My friend who was first time there, was so happy with the food and service, that he even tabao back for his mum.
Wholesome hearty soup to warm the heart! I visited this place with a friend on a rainy day and their chicken soup was absolutely just what we needed!
Fragrant, flavourful and just delicious 😋
I highly suggest trying their black chicken soup if you like a nuttier and rich taste to your broth as the lotus root tends to provide that thickness to it.
But if you're into a lighter and still extremely flavourful broth, i highly recommend the white chicken soup with cordyceps 😋 they are both very delicious and perfect for a hearty soupy meal ❤️
We may have went a little overboard and tried all their side dishes but it was SOOO worth it!!
My favourites are definitely the tofu and Ngoh Hiang and an absolute MUST to order!!
The tofu has a crispy exterior, melt-in-your-mouth interior and in the perfect bite-size to enjoy a full bite! It's also not just ur typical tofu as it has some vege to amp up the flavours and add a little bit of their sauce on the side? That additional bit of tang to help you never get sick of it 🤤
The Ngoh Hiang is wrapped FULL to the brim and perfectly fried. It has a crispy exterior with a soulful interior, dip it in the sweet sauce and BOOM burst of flavour 😋
Special mention to the fried egg with cai poh too! Bit of salty + bit of sweet and the nice chewy texture is just 👌 They were also extremely generous with the cai poh servings to make sure you get an even taste of everything.
We ordered so much we couldn't finish but they helped us pack everything nicely so we could enjoy it all after as well 😋 (Even my mum loved it!) Will definitely come back again for more next time!
It's definitely not as convenient when it's raining but if you have a car or don't mind travelling for good food, I 100% recommend trying their food yourselves!
Also, loved their homemade drinks and complimentary ice cream after the meal. Was so extremely satisfied 😋👌
