SHU Express

"The food is very good; especially the Dumplings. The person in the cashier didn't let us dine in when we went to the restaurant 45 minutes before the closing time."

"I’m happy SHU came to Avon! Now we don’t have to go all the way to West Hartford. This is Szechuan Chinese food which is much different from the typical American Chinese food. It’s a little more expensive, but the quality is worth it and it’s so good. It has an authentic taste to it. I highly recommend the dan dan mei and chengdu dumplings - ours were cooked through. If you like a lot of sauce and spicy + savory food, you’ll like SHU!"

"We had the kung pao chicken bc we're basic but it was delicious. Just the right amount of peppercorns. The fried rice was flavorful and I personally loved the wontons. The broth they are served in is so flavorful but light. Highly recommend! Also the staff was so kind and gentle :)"

"Tried this place because the wife loves Shu in West Hartford, got some Dan Dan Noodles and Chengdu Dumplings. Noodles were ok, dumplings were definitely un/undercooked pork. Already ate 3 of them before discovering they were raw so praying I don't get sick."

"Some acquaintances recommended SHU in West Hartford for really good authentic Chinese food. When I looked them up, I was surprised to see that they have recently opened up an express location in Avon that carries just the most popular options. This saves me a lot of time in traffic as I don’t have to go over the mountain to get authentic Chinese food. There are a lot of things on their menu that I still have to try, but so far I highly recommend their Kung Pao Chicken, Fish Filet in Hot and Spicy Bowl, and their dumplings and wontons. Their lunch specials are also really good, I like the fish filet in sauce and the Kung Pao Chicken specials so far. The twice cooked chicken was not bad, but they have better stuff on their menu in my opinion. Also be warned that the Chong Qing chicken is loaded with hot chili peppers. Definitely give them a try, today will be my 5th day in a row ordering from them."
