Where to Eat in Flushing’s Chinatown

"Regional food from the Shaxian district of the Fujian Province is a rare find in NYC, and the growing Shaxian Snacks chainlet is the place to get it. This simply designed spot in the once-vibrant corridor of Union Street welcomes lots of regulars who come for well-executed dishes at affordable prices. The miniature Shaxian wontons are a must-get. With long slippery drapes of wrapper, they look like tiny ghosts swimming in a light and savory peanut broth. The beef soup features thin slices of beef, al dente carrots and a clean, light broth of white and ginger. The soy bean paste noodles are heaping with minced pork and cucumbers." - Caroline Shin

Walked in randomly for a snack. I got the Beef Brisket Soup and it was delicious. The meat was tender and noodles were perfect.

No one really spoke english, so if you’re looking for a good authentic chinese food place in queens, come here. We were lucky to have a teenage boy who spoke both languages, so it worked out great and even though they didnt speak much english we communicated well enough for the waiter to tell us roughly what each dish was. It was delicious. and it was a good deal for the amount of food you get compared to other places. My favorite dishe was the wonton soup which was really good and my family got a lot of other dishes and they were all really good.

Small shop on Union street that I highly recommend trying! We ordered: Fried wontons 5/5 Super light and crispy! Peanut butter noodle 3/5 Smelled delicious, but the peanut butter flavor was very light. Hot and sour noodles with beef 4/5 A good flavor combo and the noodles were super chewy. Braised pork with rice 5/5 Loved this! Best braised pork rice I've tried in flushing. The soup that came with it was also a nice suprise.

So many delicious dishes to choose from. They are all so tasty and the best part is that it’s so damn cheap. If you want something cheap ans lots of choices to choose from, you can consider this place.

I really liked this place. It had all of my core values in place for when I usually go for a meal- good pricing, good portion size, and reasonably healthy. Food reminds me of the type you cook at home, not a lot of oil or salt or sugar, which is a huge pro because I think most restaurants overdo it on those things and make it unhealthy to eat out. Authentic home cooked food. Chicken combo for 11 dollars, also good wontons.

Stopped in to try some food and support a local business. I got one of the spicy noodle soup dishes. Overall it was pretty good, nice spice to it. I need feel that the dish was a little greasy or oily for my taste but still very good. The value was pretty good as well, not expensive at all. I would definitely recommend giving this place a try. I'll certainly be back to try some of the other dishes.

The spicy beef noodle soup had super dried out beef, definitely not the same as the picture I showed the waitress. The soup was also bland, basically just water and hot oil. The wontons in peanut sauce was over cooked so it basically melted all together. The only average thing was the Shaxian Dumplings. There’s so much more tastier 小吃 in flushing, will not be coming back.

Ordered the brisket over rice to go. Food came fast and the sauce was decent. Wasn't spicy and had solid flavor.

Big meaty noodle dish (pretty mild - I'll ask for spice next time) good meat to noodle ratio and $8 to boot

This review is solely about the shaxian wonton, which for a lot of people might not know, shaxian wonton has its own different texture that's a little bouncy texture like meat balls but also very small and when you boils it expands, it's the way they make the purée meat inside. Grew up an hour away from sha xian, this is NOT authentic sha xian flavor at all. The wonton is just like the regular one and the fillings are also small. I didn't try the other food on the menu so I wouldn't give a all negative reviews.

Delicious and healthy! Mad love it! You can never find anywhere else for this kind of rice noodles with beef in Flushing! Highly recommend!

Wayyyy under the radar on Yelp. If you know Sha Xian snacks, you know this is the spot. Locals and insiders only.

We ordered takeout two years ago when we first arrived in NYC since they were one of the few Chinese restaurants that still open and deliver food past 10 pm. Today we tried it again, and now it's safe to say that they are really one of a kind, offering delicious home-made comfort food which originated from Fujian. Sha Xian is a hole-in-the-wall that runs under the radar but is definitely worth a try.

I came in for lunch and got Shaxian noodles with soy bean paste. Delicious! I was in a hurry and had to make a quick decision...there were so many other options that looked good. I want to try their soups and casseroles next.

Very flavorful sour and hot beef noodle soup. Big portion and tasty ingredients would recommend to try!
