" Overall a decent experience but perhaps not worth the hype I heard from friends. The food was good, yet some dishes felt bland. On top of that, the curtains and decor seemed outdated, and it detracted from the overall atmosphere. Wouldn’t say I felt unwelcome, but the service was merely okay. I think this place has potential, but they need to revisit some recipes to capture that authentic flavor they promote. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've tried many Chinese restaurants, but there's something special here at Shu House. The authentic dishes make every bite enjoyable! The menu had so many options that I had a hard time choosing. We shared almost everything on the table, and everyone loved the fiery spices used. Service was also good, but I felt rushed at the end; they started clearing plates before we finished. Still, it was a completely satisfying meal overall! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing so many positive things about Shu House, I finally decided to visit, and honestly, it did not disappoint! The food tastes like what you'd find in a traditional Chinese restaurant back in Asia. However, the wait was a little longer than expected—a downside when you're super hungry! I tried their famous fried rice, which was fragrant and well-seasoned. The staff are friendly, though they seemed a bit flustered the night we visited. Next time, I'll be sure to go during less busy hours to make the most of my experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Phenomenal! I can’t even begin to express how satisfying my meal was. Each dish we ordered was packed with flavor and expertly crafted. My all-time favorites include the cumin lamb and the dry-fried chicken! I noticed that some staff were New Jersey natives trying to bring authentic Chinese cuisine to our area, and it truly shines through. On top of that, we received very prompt service. Heads up: it’s wise to make a reservation on weekends as seating can get quite tight! " (*Curated Review*)

" I wished we made reservations! The place was packed, and the wait was over an hour for a table! But it turned out to be worth it. The flavors in each dish were authentic and truly brought memories of my travels through China flooding back. I absolutely loved the spicy boiled pot with fish! The staff was accommodating, even amid the chaos. Definitely worth a visit, just make sure to plan ahead and call ahead for better service! " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve had my fair share of Chinese food, but Shu House offers something special. Their menu features many authentic dishes, and I was thrilled with the variety offered. We ordered a sizzling hot pot that was both delicious and filling. The ambiance is pleasant, making it a nice place for a family dinner. However, I did notice that the service could improve as we waited a while for our drinks. Overall, a great spot for authentic flavors in New Jersey! " (*Curated Review*)

" A bit disappointed, honestly. I’ve heard a lot about Shu House and had high hopes. The service wasn’t as attentive as I expected; we had to wait longer for water refills. My dish was decent, but I found it too salty. The ambiance has potential—it was quite busy, which created a lively environment. Yet I left feeling a little let down as it didn’t meet my expectations.
