50 Best Chinese Restaurants in Calgary

“Sssoooo good. Expect to wait a while for your meal, because everything is prepared fresh. The restaurant is very small, so keep that in mind for dine-in. The flavour of the food was really incredible though. I left 2 hours ago and I already want to go back!!“

“I had the spicy pork cubes clay pot. Under the top is a yummy omelette and it comes with a side of kimchi. Actually, I even got a refill on the kimchi. The sauce was suuuper balanced and the cherry on the top with this dish is to scrape out the crunchy rice crust at the bottom of the dish. Absolutely worth a trip.“

“Awesome deal for good vegan Chinese food. My daughter and I enjoyed the $13.50 lunch with curried noodles. It came with spring rolls and jasmine tea. There were multiple varieties of veggie meats yum“

“I’ve tried many Chinese food places in calgary and this place has to be one of my favourites.
The ginger beef and sweet and sour kitchen were nice and crispy but yet still very saucy. The vegetables had lots of brocolli which I love. Everything tasted amazing.
The portion sizes are excellent for a meal for two. Both had dinner and have some leftovers for tomorrow.
This is my new go to restaurant. Highly recommend.“

“I as well as my family have been dining and having delivery from Bills new location in Calgary for many years. The food for dinner for 2–excellent— added an extra entree with the deep fried shrimp . It was so delicious and so good. We recommend them highly.“

“Dim sum connoisseur from Toronto - highly recommend for both locals and especially visitors coming off a flight. Located close by the airport and along the route to get on the highway to get to Banff, this restaurant is a must visit. Seafood was outstanding and when in cowboy country, don't forget to order the famous ginger beef.“

“We come to this restaurant quite often and always have a great experience. They specialize in Northeastern Chinese cuisine, and the food is consistently authentic and full of flavor. Portions are very generous, and the prices are very reasonable for the quality and quantity you get.

One thing that makes this place unique is the thoughtful inspiration behind some of the dishes. There’s a subtle sense of meaning and creativity in how certain items are presented, which adds a special touch while still staying true to traditional flavors.

Everything we’ve tried has been delicious, comforting, and clearly made with care. It’s one of our go-to spots whenever we’re craving hearty, satisfying Chinese food with a bit of uniqueness.“

“We came from Montana to try Dengs. We were not disappointed. So good!!!“

“This was a great experience. Good food at a good price and service with a smile. What more could you ask for?

It's rare to have a lunch special on a Saturday amd this automatically puts Brothers on my list of go to places when I need a nice me at a reasonable price on the weekend. Big thumbs up from and we will be back! 👍“

“delicious fresh noodles!“

“Great food, friendly staff, Sam and his family have done a great job for 30 years, always our go to for Chinese cuisine“

“We dined at the West Edmonton Mall location. We all loved it! Our meals were amazing, so full of flavour and the noodles were outstanding! The green tea Passion fruit drink complimented the meal perfectly. Please, please, please open a location in Vancouver, BC.“

“This place feels like home... if home to you is a compact room full of what most may consider mystery meat and a lingering smell of sesame and chili oil. The Chinese burger was such a succulent treat. Do not go digging into one if youre not ready for some weight in your gut... but good weight. Other than that I tried both the pork and beef bao and I must say I was thoroughly impressed. I plan to visit again soon just to see the toothy grin on that kind lady's face.“

“My first time dining experience here was truly exceptional! I came in for late night dinner with my mom. It was around 10:30PM. Staffs were very welcoming from the moment we walked in. Our server was friendly and anticipated our needs before we even had to ask. She even filled our bowls with wonton soup. We also requested if we could swap the ginger beef for sweet and sour pork from that dinner-for-two meal, and without any hesitation she granted our request. Food was really good and we finished the whole meal! Will definitely come back 💯

*I gave 3 stars for the atmosphere because the diners in the table next to us were so loud and my mom could barely hear me talking lol but it was fine“

“Food was outstanding. Fresh, tasty, great variety. Will definitely return soon.“

“Good people, good food lots of fun when we all get together for dinner“

“It was small, but in the way a mom and pop shop is. The servers were sweet and attentive, but not hovering. The food… how do I even begin? Only twice in my life have I had food so amazing that I cried, and this was the second one. I was so happy. Everything was fresh and perfect. The dishes were huge, the pudding was amazing. I will be going back. I’m so excited to eat the leftovers. If the staff are reading this: I love you so so so much please stay in business forever.“

“My first time here and tried about 8 different dishes for a family gathering last minute and the food was all perfect great flavor and good sized portions and the gentlemen that took my order was very kind and the service was right on time. Will definitely be back!!“

“What a wonderful restaurant. The food is the best weve had in years! One of the last few authentic restaurants left in the area where you feel like youre stepping back in time. Service is great and they have amazing gluten free options and generous portions. We loved the gf lemon chicken. You wouldnt know it was gf. This is one of the best kept secrets in Calgary for chinese food!!“

“Currently on a road trip across Canada. We've stopped at many different places but this restaurant is by far the best food we've had so far. It was my first ordering ginger beef, and I gotta say, I'm in love. Fantastic service, food, and atmosphere. 10/10 would hit a road trip just for this spot. If you're ever in town, definitely check this place out.“

“Absolutely delicious hot and fresh.“

“Excellent lunch buffet. Food is fresh, hot and delicious.“

“We came from Montana to try Dengs. We were not disappointed. So good!!!“

“My family has long adored this joint and I realized this past visit, that I have never written about it.

First off, it has the rolling carts. You know how food just tastes better outside? Dim sum tastes amazing off rolling carts, right?

You walk in to walls papered with copious amounts of photo’s showing a hodgepodge of celebs and people who have sampled the food. Fun!

The variety is great. The servers are pro’s! I have always found everyone very kind, especially considering how many people they are servicing (competently). We have never lacked for water or tea and always gotten the dishes we were craving.

Sometimes the squid is more tender than others or the doughnuts more crispy, but it is good every time. Their other menu items like pea shoots in garlic are also lovely accompaniments.

Go early on weekends so you can get a parking spot in the mall lot and avoid the long line up. There is an elevator for those who find stairs an issue.

There is also a store that sells frozen dim sum to take home in the same mall and an Asian bakery if you are so inclined.“

“Had dinner here for my wife's birthday. We have been before but it has been years. We were not disappointed. The service, food and especially the prices are beyond compare. The portions are so generous we took home what we could not eat and have enough for at least one more meal for the two of us. So good!!!“

“Excellent lunch buffet for a reasonable price ($11.50pp). The squid was cooked to perfection to the point I ate it like candy. All hot and delicious!!“

“It was my mother’s birthday and she turned 91, I called a restaurant and they would not deliver. So I found John Wong’s and they were so pleasant on the phone, they said they delivered and the food came right on time. The food was great. It tasted good, it was hot. And my mom and I enjoyed it immensely! Thank you! We will be sure to ordered again! Highly recommended!“

“I have been visiting this restaurant for more than 5 years, and it has never disappointed me. The food is always delicious, the service is excellent, and the atmosphere is amazing. I highly recommend Sizzling Rice to anyone looking for great Chinese food in Calgary.“

“The food here is very authentic ，definitely a great spot for anyone who loves Sichuan cuisine! The owner is also very friendly and gives great recommendations. 😄
The only thing I wasn’t too used to was that the staff spoke very directly, but I think that’s just their straightforward personality 😂“

“This is our go to Chinese food delivery place. My husband has been looking for a good place that also makes chicken wings and this is the spot. Great wings, love the sweet and sour chicken with pineapple. They have great ginger beef and fried rice as well. Easy website to order from and prompt delivery with a nice guy.“

“An outstanding restaurant for anyone seeking authentic Chinese cuisine. Every dish is rich in flavor, expertly prepared, and true to its roots. The menu offers an excellent selection of traditional favorites, all served with generous portions and remarkable consistency.

What makes this place truly stand out is the exceptional value—high-quality food, generous servings, and very reasonable prices. The ingredients taste fresh, the flavors are authentic, and the service is efficient and welcoming.

A hidden gem for lovers of genuine Chinese food. Delicious, satisfying, and always worth a visit.“

“Asian Bistro is our choice for great Asian foods. An extensive menu allows lots of choice, and my wife and I have enjoyed each and every dinner we have ordered. Service is great and pricing is reasonable. The premises are clean and comfortable. We highly recommend the Asian Bistro.“

“特色炒飯超好吃 价錢合理 份量超大份 值得推薦,“

“This is an old-school Cantonese Noodle House restaurant. There isn't anything flashy about this restaurant. The wok-hey was awesome, especially for their noodle and fried rice dishes. The staff were very hardworking and courteous. Prices and portions were excellent. The restaurant was drab and could be cleaner.“

“We loved it! Authentic Chinese food in Calgary’s Chinatown. We are so glad we decided to eat here. The sweet and sour pork was amazing; crispy, tender, with a sauce that is perfectly balanced in flavor. Each dish was beautifully presented. Fast, attentive service made the entire experience even better. We’ll definitely be coming back here again!“

“We flew in from out of province, and on our way to our destination we wanted to get food because we were hungry. Two of us got combos- fried rice, sweet n sour pork, deep fried shrimp; fried rice with beef n broccoli, chicken balls. We also got hot and sour soup, spring rolls and Singapore noodles with pork. It was raining, so we waited in the car. The owner- brought out the food to us! This was very nice as we did not expect her to do so. We ate our food when we reached our destination. Everything was DELICIOUS! Everything was fresh and tasty.“

“Great family run business, great music jams on Sunday and cheap beer. What's not to love.“

“We're so lucky this restaurant is so close to us!! The variety of food, simply how good it is, it's wonderful. They have dishes I can order for my western family, but an abundance of majorly tasty Sichuan dishes too that pack a punch of flavor. 10/10“

“I ordered delivery, so I can't comment on the atmosphere.

The food was AMAZING!!! It was delivered so fast, hot and fresh. The portions were extremely generous. And the gentleman who delivered the order was so friendly and delightful. I highly recommend Bamboo Gardens!“

“It’s a great place for hot pot!
lots of choices to mix and match your own personal pot. The table seats 6 and lots of room for the dishes and meat. Meat is nicely sized and cut, presentation is awesome on the plate.

On the menu it’s listed that they have a two hour limit (maybe on busy days) we had ours on a Sunday and we stayed longer.

We appreciate the ingredient rack as it is maintained at 4 Deg C and regularly restocked by workers. Servers come regularly to check your table if you needed refills and table clearing.

We like the ice tea, not too sweet yet it’s tasty.

One thing though is the cup / plastic tumblers are stacked wet on the serving tray at the plate, spice, water and chopsticks bar. We dried it with paper towel before using, management needs to look into this practice, not presentable and unhygienic.

We really like that you can customize your dipping sauce with their various choices and ingredients, you are able to mix and match it, I think this is great!

I didn’t see lots of choices for noodles, they only have udon on the ingredients rack.

I also noticed that there are no other choices for fish balls. Personally I like to try different kinds of fish balls.

They have main broths to choose from which is great!

Definitely would be going back with family and friends!

Highly recommended!“

“Best Vietnamese soup I’ve had in a long time. Real Vietnamese flavour, Made with love . Ordered the veggie with tofu, my sister ordered the chicken rice soup noodle. Broths are so full of flavour, veggies were so fresh , and of course had a spring roll! Yum. Run by family, we spoke with owner Nha, so lovely and kind, what a life story! Thank you Nha 🩷Highly recommend“
