What User likes about Shanghai Express:
Since moving to our new spacious apartment, we have found our new favorite dining spot. We used to frequent Drachenwok, but in our opinion, this place is even better. View all feedback. What User doesn't like about Shanghai Express:
The food was not good and the recipes have changed since the new owners took over. They need to bring back the old recipes. I went at 5:15 pm and the restaurant was empty, which should have been a red flag. I was not satisfied with my experience. View all feedback.
