I use eco templates and stitch.
I keep the templates in app/templates
In express, I app.use("app/templates") and res.render("foo", data)
Stitch pre-compiles everything in app to javascript functions,
including eco templates
In the client, I template = require("templates/foo"); template(data)
You could do the same with requireJS, but I'm quite fond of stitch's simplicity.
The whole setup is quite simple and works. Obviously, I can't make use
of express features such as partial in my templates. I share helper
functions in a similar manner (they're at app/helpers, so
require("helpers") in the client and
app.helpers(require("app/helpers")) in Express).
