Shanghai Express - Georgetown

This place is really nice and comfortable. Great food, very tasty and freshly made. Sarah took care of us tonight and she was amazing with her service and smile.

I found the food to be bland and tasteless, one note. Appetizer shrimp something so mushy, horrible mouth feel. I will not be going back and after reading about the hair, I can 't even finish my food.. hair is the simplest to remedy. I paid $27 something, gross. I 'll order pizza for delivery for $27 :⁠ '⁠

I have been going to this restaurant for 20 years and always had good service and good food. Maybe today was an off day I D K. I went in about 1:15 PM on a Friday, was seated quickly. Hardly any customers in the restaurant. Maybe someone at one table. Anyway I was in somewhat of a rush as I only had about 30 minutes for lunch. When I went in there were several employees standing around. After sitting at a table for about 5 minutes and watching 2 employees start bussing the only two dirty tables, I ask if they had any wait staff or servers. I got a blank stare, and a “someone will be with you in a moment”. By that time I felt as if I would be pushing it too close to my 30 minute window for lunch. It is sad as this place used to be too notch when Leo was there most times running the place. I told Devon about it on my way out, but did not have time to stay and eat and try to make it work. Moral of the story, give yourself plenty of time to eat there, even when they are not busy at all. I may give it another try in the future, but today they get a failing grade.

This is the very first Chinese food restaurant that has been as close to what I grew up loving. The food was great, service was awesome and my food was served so quickly. I was particularly impressed with the egg rolls. I lived in CA most of my life so these were exactly like I remembered from home. It's a small part of a great meal, but it made my experience so much better. It's refreshing to see a Texas restaurant with such great tasting food. Thanks for taking me back to real comfort food just like when I was a kid!

Sadly they were closed when we drove from libertyhill to try them out. Google said they were open, standard times say they are open, even the posted sign claiming July 11 they will be closed didn't talk about them being closed. I guess call em before you head over!
