SHU Express is a restaurant that serves authentic Chinese Szechuan cuisine, with locations in West Hartford and Fairfield. The menu includes dishes that are different from typical Chinese takeout options.
Two reviewers enjoyed the Chengdu Dumplings, which are steamed pork dumplings served with a special garlic sauce that is sweet, spicy, and in hot chili oil. The dumplings were highly praised for their delicious flavors.
For the entree, one reviewer ordered the crispy chicken in spicy garlic sauce, which was served with the sauce in a separate container to prevent the chicken from becoming soggy. However, the sauce was described as just "okay" and not very spicy. The other reviewer did not mention their entree.
Other menu items that were mentioned as desired for future visits included Dan Dan noodles, Seven Flavors Wonton, Spicy Cumin Beef, and Chong Qing chicken.
The prices at SHU Express are higher than other Chinese spots, but the reviewers found the unique and delicious flavors to be worth it. The reviewer who came with no expectations was particularly impressed, stating that the food reminded them of what happiness felt like and that the ingredients, texture, flavors, and temperature were all on point. Overall, SHU Express is a recommended spot for those looking for non-typical Chinese dishes with high-quality ingredients.
