Shanghai Express
Shanghai Express is a casual Chinese takeout spot known for its vegetable-based dishes like Hunan vegetables and vegetable lo mein. Portions are generous and prices reasonable, making it a solid choice for affordable quick bites. However, recent reports indicate all sauces contain chicken broth, eliminating genuine vegan options despite a vegetarian menu presence.
