Great Chinese food restaurant with friendly service.
Highly recommend Ginger beef, I have been ordering from them from 5 years ago and the quality hasn't changed, just so good

As a first-time customer, I was genuinely looking forward to trying the lemon chicken, but unfortunately, the experience left me incredibly disappointed.
The chicken was extremely dry — almost to the point where it felt like chewing through cardboard. The breading was overcooked, overly crunchy, and crumbled off the meat almost immediately. It lacked the moisture and cohesion you’d expect from a freshly made dish. Rather than a crisp, flavorful coating, it was just brittle and separated from the chicken in large chunks.
Visually, the dish looked rough and thrown together, which was already a red flag. But the taste and texture confirmed it: this was not fresh, not well-prepared, and certainly not enjoyable.
From the bottom of my heart, I cannot recommend this restaurant based on this experience. It’s disappointing to pay for a meal that feels like it was rushed and not cared for. I truly hope they take this kind of feedback seriously and make improvements, because first impressions matter — and this one was a miss.

Extremely disappointed the restaurant has removed Beef Orange Delight from their menu. Very sad.
still amazing food made with love. you can never be wrong choosing them in a sea of too many restaurants anomaly. they are guaranteed to exist close to me, honor, and glory restored to ancient Chinese Star Royaulty.

This is the best ginger beef I’ve ever had — crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. I really love ginger beef, and Pink Pearl absolutely nailed it! I also ordered the salt and pepper chicken and chicken fried rice. Everything was hot, fresh, and super tasty.
Pink Pearl offers free delivery within 3.5 km, which is very convenient. The portions were generous, and the food traveled well.

Amazing ...I've been coming here for years and it is the best in Calgary by far. Nothing to look at but don't judge a book by its cover...the steady flow of take out is crazy...we eat in and enjoy the quiet...;)

We brought our mom here for an early Mother’s Day supper and was very impressed with the food. It was so good. The best I have had in a long time. I highly recommend this place. The building could use a little renovations and cleaning.

We ordered Palace Style Eggplant, General’s Chicken and Grilled Pork Dumplings for two of us. The portions are quite generous, and the dishes taste sooo good. The chicken was crispy and the flavor of sauce made my mouth watering! I think it’s better to dine in rather than taking out or delivering, to keep the deep fried stuffs crispy. Besides, the service was pretty good as well, all the staff were welcoming and hospitable.

First: This place has a tiny dining room. We were staying in a nearby hotel, and there were only 3 of us, so FYI if you have a large party and need to dine in, you may want to give the staff a call.
That said, this place was so warm and accommodating! They especially took great care of our 6 year old, even after he managed to break a bowl by dropping it accidentally.
On top of the superb service, the food was so good! I was craving exactly what they had on the menu, and even the new things we tried were very good. Portions are large, so keep that in mind while ordering! (Still grateful they warned us while we were going crazy ordering. We would have had piles of food left over if we had gone with more than one entree!)
Highly recommend the Palace Chicken, Fried Wontons, Wor Wonton Soup and Young Chow Fried Rice. So delicious and filling!

This Chinese Restaurant is the best food I have ever had. Wonderful service, delivery and food quality 👌
Stopped in for a quick lunch with a couple of buddies. The sign said it’s been around since 1989. The place was pretty empty given it was lunch time - one other table.
Ordered Cantonese Fried Skinny Noodles, Grilled Pork Dumplings & Fried Rice. The portions were healthy but I would trade taste for volume any day. The noodles were crispy but the sauce was a bit salty and bland. The grilled dumplings were a bit heavy & doughy and looked more deep fried than pan fried.
Overall not horrible but not my favorite. There are plenty of nearby Chinese food places that would top this place without looking too hard.

DO NOT ORDER FROM HERE! We did off of UberEats, and they ripped us off .
Paid over $21 for garlic shrimp with broccoli, got a tray of 90% vegetable with a handful of shrimps placed on top. Absolutely shameless and pathetic portioning. The sauce doesn't even taste that good. Cantonese fried noodles were blatantly old. Somehow, this place managed to get noodles mushy, sloppy, overcooked AND dry and undercooked at the same time? Again, it doesn't taste good. It tastes off. Could only manage to eat some wonton soup, which still has no flavor.
I understand that restaurants tend to skimp out with online orders to save money, but this is just downright insulting. Have no idea how this place has a good rating. I wish I could give a zero. Gross, old scam slop. Would rather go hungry than order here again.
