Bobby Chao's Restaurant Reviews
The food is ok. The service is ok. It is a Chinese restaurant with traditional Chinese seatings but not that big. I think this place would be ideal for a table of older people who lives nearby and likes Chinese food.
Food are generally too sweet. Otherwise, it's okay.
Best Chinese food in calgary. Recommended to is by a friend

Bobby Chao's Restaurant offers authentic dim sum and Cantonese cuisine, with stir-fried dishes cooked to perfection with "wok hei." The restaurant has a large menu with a variety of options, including BBQ meats, which are a nice addition. The staff is generally friendly and attentive, although some recent reviews have noted issues with service. The food remains tasty, featuring dishes like duck, BBQ pork, shrimp fried noodle, garlic mixed vegetables, sweet and sour pork, and salt pepper squid. Non-vegetarians will enjoy the duck, pork, and shrimp dishes, while hot tea and steamed green tea buns make satisfying desserts. However, some dishes like sweet and sour pork can be bland, and vegetarian options may be limited, so care should be taken to ensure dishes are meat-free.
While many loyal customers have enjoyed the restaurant for years, there have been complaints about service quality, including the need to ask for menus and reordering at the front desk. Some customers have also experienced issues with takeout, such as the lack of utensils. Despite these ups and downs, the restaurant maintains a reasonable price point of $28 per person for a meal that includes dim sum, a dessert, and drinks. Recent experiences suggest that the restaurant may be facing challenges, but it remains a local option for those seeking dim sum and Cantonese cuisine.
