We came here for lunch yesterday and decided to do the dim sum instead of their lunch buffet. They have a large list of dim sum items. We tried the shrimp and corn dumpling (delicious where the corn compliments the shrimp dumpling with sweetness), bean curd with soup (meat filling was not too fatty), curry cuttlefish (this was average), rice crepe with beef tendon (very delicious with good cuts of meat and mushrooms), and sticky rice with abalone (lean meat and good filling but a little too much rice). The prices are around $6 per dish but I was surprised by the quality as these were better than the buffet items. I would recommend giving this place a try.
Had a craving for Chinese and this place is close to the Costco where I was shopping. Lunch buffet was busy- mostly asians, so that's a good sign. They have buffet tables and a dim sum table. Got there at 11am, so the food was fresh. All the stations were properly labeled. I enjoyed the various noodle dishes, the fried rice, the spicy chicken and the beef curry. Unfortunately, the ginger beef was disappointing and the French fries were undercooked. There was sushi, but I was too full to try any. Several ice cream options, but not much else for dessert. A variety of fresh fruit would have hit the spot. At $15.99, it seems a little expensive, but might be well worth it if you can eat at least 3 or 4 plates. Pop is only $2.50 and they offer free refills.
This spot has seem a number of resturant. Eastern Treasures is updated chinese resturant. It has some nice touches ie chandelier in the dining room... clean bathrooms albeit no change table. A few wierd additions ie mounted tv... some guys asked gor the sports channel. The buffett is $16... has dim sum in the line up with regular chinese dishes ... few sushi pieces fruit .. jello.. chinese jello and a range of ice cream flavors
All I can say is that the value is well worth the price. I usually go to Forbidden City, or Central Grand, but this place has earned a new spot in my heart. The food is GOOD. The steamed buns are nice as the filling and the bun tastes good. Service is prompt and friendly. Environment is great! Food comes hot and steaming (as it should). I will definitely be returning soon. I highly recommend this place if you enjoy Forbidden City and Central Grand.
- 0.5 for having no tofu in sugar cane syrup. ;-D
(Also because the sticky rice in lotus leaf was only lightly seasoned.)
Had a family dinner here and food wasn't too bad. It's not the best in Calgary or even top 10 chinese foods. But if you are looking something close to the NE that can fit large groups. This place might suit you. I forgot to take a few pictures but there is no flavour for the hot and sour soup. Don't order it! The lobster in cream is pretty good 4/5. Parking duck 3/5 the veggies seem to be good 4/5.
This is my most favorite Chinese restaurant. The new renovation is so gorgeous. The food and service always make me feel satisfied! I strongly recommend this restaurant to you!
This is one of the better Chinese restaurants in the NE area. We went on a Saturday evening at 5:30 and the restaurant was busy so reservations are recommended. You have a choice of the dinner buffet or ordering off the menu. I was with family and we decided on the Peking duck 3 course that came with the duck, soup and fried rice, a snow pea shoot dish and the eggplant clay pot. The duck was moist and juicy and presented nicely. We did order extra wraps which was $5 extra. The veggies were flavourful and fresh and we loved the salted fish in the eggplant dish. The service was also good and prices are reasonable.
I took my friend here for the lunch buffet for her birthday. Everything was surprisingly delicious! The salt and pepper squid was tasty and tender the way it should be. The basa fillets were cooked to perfection. Very nice bonus to have dim sum items and sushi items included with the buffet. We were both very impressed that buffet food was so delicious!
This is my second time coming here. I came for the dimsum and it proved to be worthwhile. The selection was stronger than most place I've been to locally thus far, and the food came out fast and fresh. We ordered fifteen dishes, yes fifteen, and as per usual when eating Chinese, take home is inevitable.
The location itself is very well renovated inside with a clean atmosphere and well lit environment. The outside isn't very pretty with the huge "Buffet" sign but it didn't impact negatively our eating experience. It does make this place hard to miss for the community.
This location appeased the two pinnacles of a good dimsum spot, fast service, and fresh food.
Water Chestnut Cake: fluffy, and delightful. Not too sweet, and the water chestnut crunch was awesome.
Pork Dumpling : can't go wrong here.
Steamed Chicken Feet: though I didn't try any of it, the others at our table devoured this quickly.
Spareribs: delicious.
Sticky Rice on Leaf : well, this is always a heavy item, but taking it home for round 2 always works.
Taro Pastry: a little on the thick side, couldn't take more than half of one piece.
Egg Yolk Bun: also a take home item for when you get hungry on round 2.
who am i kidding, there was a lot of items.....
Overall, this place rates high on this visit for me.
Great selection and friendly service. I like that they offer dim sum on the Buffett. Food is average but good for western style Chinese. Staff was prompt with taking plates and monitoring the Buffett.
