A little context: after breaking down in front of his restaurant, the owner saw my friend and myself looking at my flat tire trying to assess the situation. He saw us and without hesitation offered to help. Knowing a flat isn’t the easiest thing to fix without a compressor, he and his friend said don’t worry we have a compressor. Not only that they had every tool needed to fill the tire, and figure out where the leak was.
After exclaiming my gratitude I told him my next Asian food experience would be at his restaurant. He said he expected no such compensation but I felt after saving me a hundred plus dollar tow bill, darn right I’d keep my word.

This same day I ordered from Clay Pot for take out. After looking at the online menu, and being very hungry by the stresses of the day, I ordered some unique dishes that looked very enchanting.
The Mango spring rolls, beef spring rolls, salt and pepper chicken, and Mala (spicy) roasted beef with hand made noodles.
Each dish was so unique and perfect; different- in fact more than any Asian restaurant I’ve ever tried here in Calgary.

Outstanding service, atmosphere and absolutely beautiful inside- modern and full of people who all seemed to be enthusiastic and lively; put simply having
As great an experience as I was about to have.

I have no other way to express my thanks and appreciation to the owner, except that he went wayyyy above and beyond, and THAT is something so rare in todays hectic rat race, that it helped restore some much needed confidence in an otherwise indifferent world.
Do yourself a flavour and check this place out. The menu is unlike anything I’ve experienced at other restaurants. And it won’t be my last visit.
Thank you Clay Pot for everything.
I’ll be back again, and that is a promise.
Best 5 stars in a very long time.

Ordered on a whim after getting home late from work, and I will definitely order again! You can't go wrong and it's good value for portion size.

An all around great restaurant for delicious Chinese Clay Pot! Choose any of their clay pot rice dishes and you'll be sure to love the rice, meat, veggies, and especially the crispy rice crust at the bottom! This is a big, open restaurant that is decorated in an unconventional (but nice) way for chinese restaurants. The staff are friendly and the seating area is comfortable and cool. Food comes at a decent pace with reasonable prices and a decent amount of parking space just outside. Come check this place out! I highly recommend it

Hidden gem that should be more noticed.

I had the Chicken and Mushroom and it was cooked perfectly with rice being crispy and the chicken being tender.
Spice and seasoning was nicely balanced as well.
The service from Sam Yun (I'm pretty sure I spelt her name wrong ) was really good as well and a pleasant surprise from big chains. Restaurants that pride themselves on customer service should take notes.

Overall a thoroughly enjoyable experience and I wish them continued success.

Enjoying this place every time we visit. My kids have yet to find something they don't like to scarf down. Don't miss the Cantonese Sausage and Cured Pork Belly clay pot rice, it's such homey goodness, and that rice is so perfectly crisp at the edge of the bowl.

We visited Calgary and stumbled across this restaurant that had clay pot rice. The food was delicious! Highly recommend the chicken and mushroom clay pot rice and the stewed beef brisket with chu hou sauce. The server was lovely, she was very welcoming and friendly. Overall great place to try!

One of the few Asian spots open late, and everything was fantastic! Our party ordered two of the chicken clay pot dishes, in addition to the Hong Kong noodles and a spicy beef noodle bowl. My family is pretty particular about Chinese cuisine, but even we were surprised by how good it was. The food was served promptly, and everything was hot and delicious, with the appropriate spice level. As a note, the taste is much closer to mainland food than your standard Americanized Chinese fare.

We received exceptional service from Beverley, who even went so far as to show us how to prep some of the food. She was very personable, entertaining us with many different stories. Beverley made the experience all the better, and was incredibly kind hearted and friendly.

The venue was good as well. I didn't take any pictures, but you can reference other reviews to see what it looks like. As we were nearing the end of our trip (and our budget), I was actually a tad bit concerned I had picked a place that was going to be a bit too pricey, but that was not the case at all. The pricing is very competitive, and I've seen other places with inferior food, service, and venue quality charge more.

It's not quite in the heart of Calgary, but give it a try even if you have to take public transportation! Would absolutely recommend.

I would order the BBQ pork again. It was good. The rest was decent. Curry beef was a little bland

We’ll be returning for sure!

Kid-friendliness: The restaurant is super kid-friendly! They have special utensils and kids chairs, plus a gaming machine. And my kid loved the lollipop he got at checkout!
