| - Given the love it or hate it reviews here, I was hesitant to try this place, even though it's only a few blocks from my house. One night, I was just too tired and craving chinese food, so a friend and I stopped in.
The place is nothing to look at from the outside, but it's clean and has easy in / easy out parking. The food is good. Nothing was greasy, overcooked or overbreaded. Even the kung pow chicken was done correctly, with fresh chicken, not frozen chicken nuggets in a bottled sauce. This was lightly fried with lots of crisp veggies. The lo mein was good. The egg rolls were light, although heavier than a spring roll, which is to be expected. The food came out quickly and was a good size portion for the money.
Been back a couple of times now, and I can safely say that Red Shrimp is my go-to chinese place, especially for take out.
