“The dumplings and wontons tastes exactly the same as most FJ places I grew up eating in Flushing and Brooklyn with one spot in Brooklyn being significantly better, and the peanut noodles again tastes the same but had a nice chew but again there's a place in Flushing that is the same way. The only stand out for me was the beef soup, the quality of it was above most places.”

“Just my opinion, but I think the panfried dumplings at Shu Jiao Fu Zhou are noticeably better than King Dumplings; they have a crispier wrapper and more generous filling. Pricing-wise they're a little more expensive, but worth it imo”

“Shu Jiao Fu Zhou in Chinatown is the spot. Paper thin wrappers, juicy pork and chive filling, and six dumplings for three bucks-ish. I've been going for years and it's never missed.”

“I also feel like that's why Shu Jiao Fu Zhou is "good" because they mostly make boiled dumplings and it's more consistent and doesn't go bad as fast as pan fried dumplings.”

“But the worst part we’re the bugs. So many of them crawling around on the walls and floor. I can only imagine what the kitchen was like. Lost my appetite and we left. So, so bad and I don’t get the hype.”

“The pork and chive dumplings is what really puts this spot on the map of good eats. Light and tasty. The peanut butter noodles really lack flavor compared to how my fuzhounese friends make it, it's a 5/10.”

“Ugh that wonton soup is just so silky. Great NY Noodletown doesn’t hold a candle to Shu Jiao and Shu Jiao is the place that deserves the Michelin star”

“Definitely for the Pork and Chives Fried Dumplings (the steamed ones are all fine too, but the fried ones are where they excel). The peanut noodles are decent too, albeit a bit one-note if you don't add hot sauce.”
H3
“The wonton are also like really thin wrappers around a sad, flavorless pea-sized core of filling. Dumplings were good though”

“the peanut noodles were one of the best dishes i have had on this trip. the dumplings were equally as good. 9.4”
