Ordered the kung pao chicken lunch special and was super impressed by the portion and price! My entree came with a side of soup so I got the hot and sour soup and it was very good. The king pao chicken was also very good and had a nice flavor. read more

It was Chinese New Year and I thought that I could squeeze in a nice lite afternoon snack between appointments so I abruptly chose Shu Shu Asian Cuisine which turned out to be an unfortunate mistake After entering, one goes straight ahead to order. Normally, I peruse the menu before going to a new establishment but unfortunately, I did not this time. First thing that caught my eye was the Singapore Noodle so I ordered that and added beef, for my protein, a cup of Wonton Soup and 2 shrimp Spring Rolls. I was given a number and waited at my table for my order. I thoroughly enjoyed the Wonton soup. The Shrimp Spring Rolls were overloaded with veggies and the shrimp were barely noticeable. I was terribly disappointed with the Singapore Noodle bowl. I was expecting the wide rice noodle and not the vermicelli style. It was also very dry. I tried stirring everything with hopes of there would be some sauce on the bottom of the bowl but nothing so I was offered a bowl of hot chicken broth to mix in with my Singapore Noodle bowl but that did not give any relief to those dry noodles. Whenever I rate a venue with 3 stars, I make an effort to return to give them another chance and I have seen some things on the menu that may help to change my rating. read more

If you're worried about iodine deficiency, don't worry -- this place has you covered. The food was so salty it could probably season the whole ocean. As for the tea... I ordered jasmine and green tea, but it turned into a fun guessing game because both tasted exactly the same: hot water. And I mean just hot water What happeNed to you Shu Shu's I took a friend there (her first time) for lunch and I am so embarrassed. The flavors were off. My wonton soup had raw spinach, raw green onions, and the wonton wrapper just a tad bit undercooked. Good location. it's local and the water was free ... the 2 read more

We went here on a Saturday night. It was almost 9pm so we were the only ones at the restaurant. They have a decent variety of dishes - vegetarian included so everyone in our group had something to order. Portion sizes for noodles and fried rice were huge! Entire with fried/white rice on the side were more than enough for a person. Overall, food was good, the place was clean and the service was pleasant. No complaints. If you're looking for an alternative to Panda Express, this is the place to go to. read more

Always delicious. The kids meal is a great portion and price. The crab wontons are also yummy!

Tried the Kung Pao chicken dish with white rice for lunch. Tasty, good, but not knock it out of the park great! Still, I wouldn't discourage you from trying it because they do give you a very decent portion size for lunch and, based on the crowd size in the restaurant, the food offerings must be pretty decent. Also got egg drop soup with the meal and it was ok but I've had tastier EDS at other local places. I did like their menu choices, lots to choose from. I only wish there was a bit more veggies in the King Pao read more

This is a great little order to go or even dine in casual cook to order Chinese spot. Basically you order your base (lots of vegan options) and add a protein if desired. Tonight we had Singapore noodles (added chicken) and fried rice with added shrimp. Side of chicken eggrolls. Service is quick and portions are large. The noodles were gluten free. Quick meal but feels and tastes fresh, healthy, and clean. Large open seating area with an airy modern vibe. read more

This unassuming Asian restaurant was a pleasant surprise! My friend did not want to go here because the name meant something else in another language but she joined me under protest. I think the name means Uncle in Chinese. This is an order at the counter restaurant. Kristi was working front of house. She helped my vegetarian friend decide on her choices, patiently explaining the dishes, answering all questions and making suggestions. The lunch specials run until 2:30 everyday...choice of appetizer and entree. My friend ordered the Serrano Black Bean entree with tofu and substituted some vegetables plus egg drop soup. I had the Black Bean entree with chicken plus hot and sour soup. Both entrees were generously tasty portions. I viewed a few other plates which also looked delicious. I will definitely be back for more! Reminder - Make sure to tip when ordering or at the table as some refrain from doing so at counter order restaurants. Kristi happily took our order, brought our food, checked on us, bussed our plates and cleaned up afterwards. read more

The eggrolls looked and tasted homemade. They were not the skinny ones with mushy insides you get at cheap places. I was happy with the flavor of the lettuce wraps and the amount given for the low price. The extra sides of rice were substantial. Restaurant was clean and so were bathrooms. You could easily take your lunch to-go with items conveniently organized and out ready. read more

Near-complete upgrade/redecoration of the interior, which I didn't notice on Tuesday when I dashed in to grab my pickup order. I'm back because - local, neighborhood AND my Ahi Tuna Salad from Tuesday was *amazing*! The service was as cheerful and quick as ever. The few menu changes I notice are improvements: choice of protein on every entree, the addition of an Ahi Tuna entree. The prices don't seem to have changed (!). Improvements all around, with no change in ownership. Yippee Skippy! read more

Very random story how we ended up here for dinner, but let's just say that it involved a booked up bowling alley and a random route. We've driven by Shu Shu's so many times, and at least know we can say that we know what's what. We were pretty much the only ones in there when we arrived though there were some people hanging around to get take-out. Several tables were dirty and we saw a couple workers just sitting on their phones, so not the best first impression. You order at the counter and they bring the dishes out to you; there's bottled beer if you want some booze. We started with the wonton soup and were shocked by how good it was. Seriously--a rich broth with tender wantons and some fresh scallions and celery in there as well. Aaaannd that will be our only form of praise. The shrimp fried rice was awful--super funky taste to what was undoubtedly something frozen and zero flavor. The serrano black bean vegetable dish with tofu was better, though, and we liked that it was indeed spicy. Our daughter's chicken and broccoli was edible but not particularly appetizing. Rice was fine. Listen, the folks are nice and the food was passable, but we're kind of shocked that this place--with the amount of real estate it entails and must cost--has survived the Burnet boom. Three stars, out of pity. read more

STYLE: Order at the counter, delivered to your table. PROS: (1) Tasty food, good presentation. (This was for dine-in.) (2) Lots of vegan options on the menu, clearly marked. (Though one the ingredients for one of the vegan options was eggs...) (3) Brown rice option. Rare, and appreciated. CONS: (1) Unsustainable packaging for takeout. Black plastic (the most toxic kind) and Styrofoam. Many places we frequent have switched to compostable / plant-based packaging. Not here. (2) Standard tip for counter service is 10%, but the *minimum* option on the payment screen was 15%. Yes, I know I can change it, that's not the point. For counter service, the choices should be 10, 15, 20. I will upgrade my review by one star for each of these problems they fix. read more

The food was good for the price point. People were friendly behind the counter. My only critique is if there is egg in a dish especially fried rice don't call it vegan call it vegetarian. The menu states that some of the fried rice is vegan but it has egg in it and the egg is not an egg substitute it's actually an egg from a chicken. The menu should be changed because words matter. But besides that the food is good. read more

I really like this place. Lunch special includes soup and rice choice. good portions. Reasonably priced. Even though I go here a lot, I really only get a few of the selections because I like them so much. Anything sauteed is great, haven't had luck with breaded items like General Tsos. One thing I like is that the dishes will be different every time. To me this means that they are making it by hand and not with a mix or out of a can. The hot and sour soup is different every time. my favorite dish is the Teriyaki Chicken, which isn't really what it sounds like...I would call it Tender Honey Chicken or something like that, really good! anyway, I recommend it. The staff is always very nice as well. read more

brought me out dry noodles even after I asked for extra sauce. even after I asked them to please again bring out extra sauce they do but then try to say I have to pay for it. I gave them 30$ and now they have lost my service forever over I'm sure .50 cents of sauce. read more

I got the kung pao chicken with brown rice. It was okay. It wasn't spicy to me, and it isn't as flavorful as I would like. The general Tso chicken isn't crispy. The wonton barely had in cream inside. I think overall, the food wasn't for me. I think other people might like this place or the other dishes. The good part was that the price was good for the portions. read more

Shu Shu's Asian Cuisine - Sesame chicken with fried rice and 1/2 Crab Wontons lunch special - Asian Fusion Near Me - Austin, Texas

My husband and I love ordering from here when we want something quick, easy, good, and nutritious. For the most part we have it delivered but we did go in person one time. It is nicely decorated, clean, and obvious that a good amount of money was spent in decor. The cashier that day had a vibrant personality and was very nice and helpful. I always order the Serrano plate which is the perfect amount of spice coupled with a black bean sauce. A great combination - because I loveeee spicy food. One time I ordered it with the fried rice which was great! But now I get it with just plain white race so it doesn't take away from the flavors of the Serrano plate. My husband always gets the crab rangoons and at least 3 bowls of the wonton soup. Flavoring and preparation is consistent and this will always be a restaurant on our rotation. read more

Everything was fantastic and plentiful. We genuinely enjoyed all of the food. Fresh, tasty, spicy, and served super fast. The staff was helpful. Ok, get it? We really enjoyed it. read more

Went for a quick lunch on 12-19-23 around noon. Very helpful service and quick. I ordered the shrimp Lomein and egg drop soup. The egg drop soup was never served so I can't comment on that. I was refunded. The Lomein was very al dente for me and not as flavorful as other places that are close by and comparable in price (Din Ho and China Family). It's great for a quick lunch but not the best. Also the Lomein is not available as part of the lunch special. read more

This restaurant gave me a bout of food poisoning that put me in the hospital for four days. We had ordered takeout from this restaurant several times because the food is OK and fairly inexpensive. But the last time we visited this place, I ordered the rare Ahi tuna, and I started to get sick as I was eating my dinner. I ended up in the hospital with severe colitis. A month later, I was back in the hospital with a heart block that required the placement of a pacemaker, as a result of an infection of my heart likely associated with the severe food poisoning. I know this is a small business just trying to make ends meet in a tough economy but there is no excuse for poor food safety. I will never eat here again, and as a consequence of this experience, I will never eat raw meat or fish again. read more

Fresh and the best egg rolls I've ever had! This may be the best place to eat Chinese in Austin.

We have eaten here twice now (once we got delivery and once we ate it there) and both times were great. Crab wontons are a must-order, as are the chicken egg rolls. The wonton soup is very flavorful and garnished to taste fresh. Their portion sizes are good and we haven't tried a dish here yet that we didn't like. We also noticed that everyone working when we ate at the restaurant was very friendly. The restaurant was also very clean inside. It's now our go-to Chinese! We've tried a few others in the area and Shu Shu is by far the best! read more

This is my family's "go-to" take out Chinese Restaurant. They don't deliver to our neighborhood, but we don't mind driving for good food. We always buy enough for a couple of meals as well. We have tried all of the dishes and we like them all. I recommend a large Hot & Sour soup. It is the best I have tried in town. Also, the Spring Rolls with Peanut sauce rocks the taste buds as well. That said, I highly recommend this Chinese restaurant. read more

If I could rate the staff I would give 5 stars. But I have to deduct points for everything else. Here's my point deduction. .5 for not having ice in the machine .5 for the tea tasting sour .5 for the Dr Pepper being flat .5 for bringing my extra sauce late I will add one point for the crab wontons. Those things were amazing!!!!!!! Now the food was not tasty to me. I'm sorry. My coworker damn near licked his plate. It wasn't flavorful as I expected. We didn't check reviews before we came. It was spare of the moment as he needed to drop his car off next door for repairs. So since my coworker licked his plate and we go to lunch together a lot and tend to agree on the food. Maybe my taste buds were having a bad day. IDK! I may go back again if I'm in the area but it won't be my first choice. It was very clean and as stated before the staff were so nice and friendly. They apologized sincerely for bringing me my extra sauce late. They did get busy during the lunch hour. I understand. I waited until later to write this review because my coworker insisted I take the food as leftovers. I had to work late and so the leftovers came in handy as I was hungry. And no. The food was still the same. Not so good. read more

We have dined with Shu Shu's several times and found it passible, nothing exceptional, but worth another try. We arrived at 11:50 am on a Sunday. We walked passed the flashing red sign that said "OPEN". Just as my wife entered the door, (I'm still a few feet outside) we were "greeted" with a load, rude scolding, "we're not open yet." I just checked and yes, Yelp has their opening hours at 11:00 am on Sunday. Maybe he should try, "welcome, please come in, we are not open yet, but I will help you as soon as possible." I have never written a review like this, but this young man is not doing his business any favors. read more

The hot and sour soup is more sour than spicy hot. We ordered the Serrano black bean chicken and it was good. The fried dumplings were good, but I had to remind them that we ordered them. Overall, I'm glad that we tried it, but I doubt that we will come back for seconds. read more

Shu Shu's is a great, quick service Chinese American restaurant! My boyfriend and I typically come here for lunch which includes a special of entree and choice of soup/egg roll/or crab rangoons. The general tso's chicken here is the best in town and we also get the Singapore noodles with shrimp. We like that their Singapore noodles don't have curry powder so it's a great tasty stir fry! read more

This is a classic American Chinese takeout joint. Cheap prices, fried and saucy items, fortune cookies etc. I can't say I loved their general Tso's sauce compared to others I've had which is why I deducted a star, but their beef and broccoli was nice and I liked that you can upgrade your items to come with friend rice or saucy noodles and upgrade to combine different proteins. Overall a good place for the price. read more

Alright. As an Asian, half Chinese man, I should stereotypically not like this food. Mainly because it's more comparable to Panda Express, rather than an authentic Chinese restaurant (I eat at Panda Express sometimes, so what?). However, if you're into Americanized Chinese food, Shu Shu's is the place to go. We went during work hours and our Lunch Special consisted of Sesame Chicken and Sweet and Sour Chicken which both came with rice, soup, and an egg roll for under 8 bucks each. Very good price. But the thing that took it to the next level was that it was actually really good, and very generously portioned. If you're in the area and looking for a quick bite, at a cheap cost, with an expectation of quality Americanish-Asiany food, Shu Shu's is the place to visit. (Better than Bamboo Bistro and Szechuan House up the road if you were considering those options). read more
