T.Pot China Bistro

One of the best dimsums in the city.

I will never understand how this restaurant has a 3.7 rating. It is one of the best Chinese restaurants in Calgary. We have been going for years and have never had a bad meal.

I highly recommend the green beans and the golden sand shrimp. (Shrimp deep fried in batter made from salt egg yolk)

I don’t recommend the lobster in cream sauce. It was $80 and covered in a bland gelatinous cream.

Great food that starts coming out from the kitchen fairly quickly. Noisy, bustling restaurant.

I ordered a Hong Kong Milk Tea.

However, very disappointed:

1. The tea is not smooth
2. The tea is lack of flavour
3. The evaporated milk is not enough

I hated it the workers were super rude and I threw up I would ate a garbage can instead the milk shakes took a hour to arrive at our table and it was just slush in a cup I hated it don’t recommend and I was unsatisfied with the food, and I cannot understand a single word they were saying don’t recommend

Bistro and hk cafe combined in one. The menu is fairly large so lots of things to read and choose from. After looking through a bit ordered the food and then quickly got it. Ordered the laksa and the pork and chicken with tomato and cream sauce baked on top of pasta. The sauce chicken and pork tasted pretty good but I think it would have been better with the baked rice option. The soup laksa also tasted pretty good. The meal also had tea to drink which was pretty tasty. Overall pretty solid experience.

We went with Asian friends and I think that's a must if you go here. I don't speak Cantonese or Mandarin. Dim Sum was great👍👍

Avoid this restaurant at all costs. The service was terrible—once our order was taken, we couldn’t get help from anyone. Staff had no idea how to assist with ordering and communication was nearly impossible due to the language barrier.

What shocked me most was the hygiene: staff wore the same gloves the entire time, handling dirty plates, trash, and then clean dishes and cutlery without changing them once. This is a serious health concern.

I normally tip 20% or more, but this is the first time I’ve ever told a manager I wouldn’t be tipping—and explained exactly why. He was polite and said he understood, but the experience was beyond salvageable.

I will never return and strongly urge others to stay away if you’re looking for a clean, professional, and enjoyable dining experience.

One of the better dim sum offerings in the city, service can be a disaster though
