Jiangsu, China Food Guide: 10 Chinese food Must-Eat Restaurants & Street Food Stalls in Suzhou

August 24, 2020 Major Galusha

Reviews on Chinese food in Suzhou, Jiangsu, China. Suzhou is a major city on the lower Yangtze known for its canals, bridges, pagodas, and beautiful gardens.  These gardens were built and owned by wealthy families and emperors hundreds of years ago, and make for a pleasant place to wander during nice weather. Suzhou is also a major center for silk production and manufacturing, and a tour of a silk factory here provides an interesting and educational glimpse of this Chinese textile industry. Suzhou is designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Zhonghongxing Noodle Restaurant (Guanqian Street)

Reviewed By Sjakie S

It's located on the corner of an intersection. Went here because of LP. We both had noodle soup, one with eel and shrimp and the other eel paste with crab. It was fine, lots of noodle, but don't expect anything fancy. Price was too high imo.

Went on recommendation. Fancy and grand restaurant but service is poor. Had hard time trying to get attention of server staff. Some popular dishes were not available and we had to make do with second choices.Food was normal and not outstanding. Or at least nothing to entice me back.

第一次来万荟轩,就被他们正宗的苏帮菜和服务惊艳到了苏帮菜品很精致,摆盘好看,同时采用新鲜、时令、健康的食材,从而口感也是非常好,服务员上菜的节奏也把控得很不错:上菜速度不会太慢,否则我们也着急,也不会太快,否则我们就会来不及吃。所以非常感谢万荟轩每个人的用心,让我和朋友在闲暇之余,有这么一个美好的一天,这里的苏帮菜就像我们儿时的一份记忆,令人难以割舍……

WanLi Restaurant (Renaissance Suzhou Hotel)

Wan Li Restaurant is an up-market Chinese restaurant offering the finest classical Cantonese cuisine and Huaiyang cuisine in the greater Suzhou area.

Reviewed By Janos K

As the Chinese restaurant in the Renaissance hotel, it is appropriately elegant.Service is good, the menu extensive and English is understood.Yet, in a town with superb restaurants, Wan Li was a disappointment. The dishes we ordered were rather uninspired, and lacked flavor. Prices are high for Suzhou: you get a nice cup of tea for $10.-.

Great food options, excellent service, cheap beer... what more could you ask for? A wonderful introduction to hot pot for those who might not have experienced it before. The noodle guy was great too.

There's a reason this place is one of the top restaurants in Suzhou. It's almost worth a day trip from Shanghai just to get some of YaBa's fried dumplings. They are crispy on the bottom and filled with amazingly delicious hot pork and broth. There's no English signage or menu and the staff doesn't speak English, but don't let that deter you. Pull up a photo of the front entrance/sign (there are plenty on TripAdvisor) so you can recognize it. Ordering is easy - show them a photo or just point to one of the dozens of plates of dumplings all around you. The friendly staff helped us figure out where to take our receipt. Seriously do not miss this place, especially if you're already planning on stopping through Suzhou. After a 3 month trip all throughout China, we're still craving YaBa's fried dumplings.

YangYang Dumpling

Reviewed By Rose C

Service was slow, and the waitresses seemed uninterested in serving three foreigners, compared to a party of about 5 Chinese. However, once we gained attention, the order was delivered promptly and with a smile. We ordered dumplings, spring rolls and broccoli and all were tasty and hot. We also had chrysanthemum tea which was delicious. Total cost was about $A20 - excellent value.
