" I went to Chef Tan recently and had high expectations, but I was left a bit disappointed. While the dumplings were decent, the lo mein lacked flavor and was certainly not what I hoped for. It was good to see that they had a varied menu, but next time I will focus on dishes that received better reviews. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a mixed experience at Chef Tan. The spicy chicken I ordered was tasty, but the vegetable dishes I tried were more average and lacked seasoning. The service was friendly but a tad slow. It might be worth another visit to explore more of their menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really hoping for a positive experience, but sadly, the food did not meet expectations. The sweet and sour chicken was overly sweet and not very authentic at all. The staff was pleasant, but I won't be back for their cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)
