Default Cooking shrimp?

Our favorite stir fry was shrimp with mixed vegetables from a local Chinese restaurant. The shrimp were fantastic! Large and very delicious and the sauce was wonderful (it was a white sauce). The shrimp were firm yet kind of soft - I don't really know how to describe them - but they were definitely not rubbery. Since we're now leery of the sauce because of carbs I have tried to make my own shrimp stir fry. But, I just cannot get the shrimp or the sauce even close to the quality of the restaurant's. I tried buying high quality shrimp and being careful not to overcook them and have tried various sauces, but was very disappointed with the results. Anyone have any ideas? I have such a craving for that great stir fry. Thanks for any help you can give me.
