Their soy steamed beef is to die for! The dishes are really tasty though the prices of some dishes are a bit pricey for its serving. Overall, su zhou is a great restaurant hidden in the noisy and bust streets of ermita.

There are tons of great Chinese joints for good and authentic food, but they’re not all clean, comfy, affordable, customer-friendly, and open 24-hours.
Su Zhou is a great place to enjoy budget-friendly and tasty authentic Chinese cuisine any time of the day. Their seafood is fresh, and the broth for their noodle soups is delicious. Will definitely drop by again to try other dishes.
This is unlike the usual chinese food you know like Dimsum. This is Su Zhou style of chinese food. And I love almost all of their dishes. My all time favorites are Pan fried Xiao Long Pao and vegetable fried rice. Aside from the food, the place is clean and simple. Moreover, there is a parking lot nearby so no need to worry.
Always Order A1 xiao long bao , C1 mustard rice and G1 soyed beef, The best combo for this chinese resto! Ultimate soul food for a foody, XLB are not as good DTF but fills the late night cravings since its open 24hours.
We always go back to this place whenever we miss their xiao long bao and kuchay dumplings. Their foods are cheap but very tasty. Once you get to taste their kuchay and xiao long bao dipped in black vinegar with ginger, I assure you, you will be back for another experience. Their taiwan beef noodle is also something you should try coz its authentic and very much a signature dish of su zhou. Its 4 stars only because of the ambiance and parking can be difficult, but it is somehow don't pose as a hindrance for us whenever we crave for their food.

One of the best xiao long baos i've ever had in the metro. The food are very filling and quite cheap too!
I was told by a friend that they have really good veggie rice. But that's for another time. I need excuses to come back 😂
1 star short because the ambiance isn't very welcoming. The staff look tired/ overworked

SPECIAL REMARKS:
I've usually frequented Su Zhou during my high school days before they even moved to their bigger and current location in Malate. Since its now located under Red Planet Hotel Building, street parking isn't accessible anymore and you would have to visit the nearest parking lot paying P50.00 for the 3 hour minimum.
Regardless, Su Zhou for me is still the best Philippine restaurant serving authentic Taiwanese cuisine, even better than Shilin, Mey Lin and the pre-acquired Tien Ma combined. I love the flavor and spiciness of their beef noodle broth (although its most likely full of MSG) but its my go to remedy for the occasional sniffles. Their Xiao Long Bao is still one of the Top 10 in the country. Large, juicy, flavorful and economically priced little art pieces that bursts in your mouth. Skip the Steamed Cuchay Dumplings since its quite a bit bland and order something else like their Fried Rice or Fried Noodles.
One of the best xiao long baos I've tasted ❤❤ me and my bf always go here or do a takeout here when we have xiao long bao cravings. we also like the C14 (noodles with beef).
foods were great ... kuchay dumplings is my favorite ...place is relxing and staffs are very accomodating... been here many times ans these place is been known by many known personalities among public personalities known on T.V. and movies.... more power Su Zhou ...
Definitely our go-to dimsum place. Their xiao long baos are to die for. I'm also a fan of their kutchay dumplings (just make sure your friends aren't allergic to grass!)
