Tofu East Asian CanteenB+
5 Westow St, London SE19 3RY
· South Asian restaurant, Asian restaurant
· Crystal Palace
Warm, speedy neighborhood Chinese with pan-Asian touches, generous portions, and very fair prices; dine-in shines while delivery is inconsistent.
Our take
Tofu East Asian Canteen delivers solid neighborhood dining through exceptional service attentiveness and remarkable speed, with strong food quality and generous portions that justify its loyal local following. However, inconsistent execution between dine-in and delivery and cramped seating prevent a higher grade—the best experience requires eating in-house at this compact Crystal Palace spot.
One caveat: Delivery and takeaway can be delayed or arrive bland/greasy during rush hours
