Tins Super Kitchen Chinese Take-Away in Colchester

Friendly staff, reasonable priced, was thinking all the boxes ticked until I ate the food itself. It wasn't horrible but it wasn't great either. Just about edible. Food just had no taste at all, chicken balls were very plain, I had to add salt to them to make them some what enjoyable. The curry sauce was OK, spicy but not much taste either.

Got a meal for one and a chow main, was not nice. Will not be going again. Alot of batter on chicken balls, should be called batter balls with hint'o chicken

Have always found Tins to offer good tasty food, love there curries, chow mien etc, always quick to deliver and always hot in temperature, can’t fault the food as have used Tins for many years 20 plus.

First time I’ve tried this Chinese & have to say, I have no complaints - the meat in my chop suey was cooked really nicely, the food was not greasy unlike some. The whole meal was a delicious treat! The fortune cookie 🥠 was a nice touch too 😊

Always good especially when you visit regularly as we do and have worked your way round the menu. The dishes with batter are just a bit doughy without that it would be 5 stars. The special prawns with 5 spice and chilli is to die for. The beef chow me in is the best we've ever had.

After doing a dayshift I went to this Chinese takeaway and brought myself Sweet-and-sour chicken in batter, When I got home I open the packet and started to eat not realising the sweet-and-sour sauce was watery and it was disgusting however I was very shocked that the chicken in butter four pieces of chicken was raw This was unbelievable I had to throw the whole lot away and it also did not taste normal it had a strange taste to it I was not happy with the service and I don’t think I would ever go there again to buy food. I can also inform you all that the staff there is not very friendly it’s very disappointed and I think they need more customer care training.

Staff are nice but a little concerning to see them wearing outdoor clothes in the kitchen. Not sure if its legal for a child to be taking orders, but I assume he is part of the family and he was really good at it. Food wise i was a little disappointed in the chow mein, to many onions and bits of gristle from the chicken knuckle, I suppose the bonus is that it came from a real chicken. Sweet and Sour balls were OK but the large pancake rolls lacked flavour and mainly consisted of been sprouts, more meat and prawns please. I found the portion size of the chow mein quite small. Overall a little disappointing.

BEST CHINESE AROUND, NO DOUBT ABOUT THAT!!!!!The food was perfect, best quality possible.The price is very cheap, and their workers are polite.Delivery time is quick, around an hour time.Would definitely recommend to everyone, even people who hate Chinese food!

Tin's is a takeaway at which I have eaten from for a good few years and never been disappointed. The price is fair for what you get, the menu is long so plenty to choose from. Fine dining it isn't, but I have no problem picking up the occasional takeaway from Tin's.

I have regularly been getting food here for years and have always been happy. I have recommended it to friends who have always been impressed with the food.The pricing is excellent given the portion size and content.The menu has the standard items you'd expect for a takeaway but the specials have a couple of surprises eg. S3 Hot and Sour King Prawns - I have never found this dish anywhere else and it's delicious.Delivery within 5miles is good - usually between 20 and 40mins.Another reviewer commented on the food being greasy - in my experience the food has been a little greasy a couple of times but these are exceptions.In brief - Good portions, good pricing, great taste. I love this place.
