Silver Dragon Restaurant (Calgary) has a rating of 4.1 out of 5 based on over 2280 reviews on Google

We were in Calgary for a week, exploring some of the top-reviewed restaurants the city has to offer. Sadly, Silver Dragon was a major letdown. We ordered the Silver Dragon Special Crispy Chicken expecting something flavorful and well-executed. Instead, we were served what looked and tasted like plain deep-fried chicken — absolutely drenched in grease, with zero seasoning or flavor. It was literally just oily chicken topped with a few shrimp crackers. No effort, no care, no taste. Worst part was waiting 30+ minutes to receive this item, and there were only 4 other people in the restaurant during the time we went.

第一次來,亦是最後一次,真心不會有下次 一向鍾意飲茶,但第一次去一間性價比咁低嘅茶樓,5個人食,一致結論是不會有下次,更加唔想比貼士,當然最後都有比少少 ‍ ️ 先說服務,一開始叫極都冇人過來落單,一坐低唔係問你飲咩茶,係比5杯冰水你,到你話要茶,侍應有點黑面,我地心諗茶樓唔係飲茶咩 菜式來到,先唔講價錢貴,因為諗住如果好食,貴都算,點知5樣餸都唔合格,唔夠熱、冇火喉、冇鍋氣(我地唔係食家,只是基本顧客要求)食物細碟又唔脆唔新鮮,仲要賣相唔得,完全上唔到檯,冇色香味 侍應過來三次問菜式是否OK,真係唔知點講真話,又成日過來拎起茶壺睇吓仲有冇茶,其實好騷擾,如果冇茶自會搵侍應。而一食完侍應即過來清檯及出單叫你埋單,其實當時係5:00pm左右冇咩人,點解要催人走咁 埋單盛惠$78,原來有茶錢,每位$0.5,雖然真係好平,但我地去過好多間茶樓,即使係唐人街,都未試過收茶錢,侍應不斷say sorry話係老闆要收,其實唔洗say sorry,都唔關佢事,我地都係問吓啫,我地一行5人食完係一肚氣及好失望,回家煮福麵原來最好味❤️ 雖然大家食得唔開心,但又冇話後悔嘅,因為今次唔來,可能下次唔知都會來,真係點都要中伏一次,同埋難得大家意見一致,能夠有共鳴

We really enjoyed our dim sum at the Silver Dragon. Both the food and service were very good.

I wouldn’t even give this food to a dog on the street. To start, our servers took maybe 30 minutes to even give us a menu after we asked someone for it who clearly forgot to give us menus. After asking someone else, our party of 5 was given 2 menus. After they took our order, this quality of food took 45 minutes to get to us. It was the most bland food I’ve ever had and I think the sauce in the chow mein was actually gravy. This isn’t a poutine?! In summary, for this place, you don’t simply pay for this public toilet discharge quality of food with your money but also with your time and any joy/excitement you may have had for your day. So if that’s something you’re interested in then this place is perfect for you. I visit many restaurants and hardly ever leave reviews but my moral conscious can’t let anyone unknowingly expose themselves to this food that curses you the moment it touches your tongue

Came here for dinner with a party of five. Chinese eateries were limited in the area, so we were glad to find this one—and overall, it was an above-average experience. It was a busy Monday evening, and while service was slightly slow, the staff informed us in advance, which helped manage expectations. The menu was extensive, and our waitress offered helpful recommendations. We ordered the roast duck, kai lan with beef, tofu with vegetables, and salted prawns. The highlight was definitely the prawns—fresh, flavorful, and conveniently deshelled, which was a pleasant bonus. Portions were generous, though we found the food slightly on the saltier side. There was also a reasonable selection of alcoholic beverages to complement the meal. A solid option for Chinese food in the area.

旅行の団体客が多い中華料理店 味は微妙な感じですが麻婆豆腐だけは美味しかった 箱が大きすぎて少人数の利用やプライベートでにはむかないと思いますし 中華にこだわりがある人は他の店を探した方がいいと思います

A great spot for foreigners to enjoy Chinese cuisine, warmly welcomed by friendly staff. It’s mostly foreigners and locals dining here, with no Chinese customers in sight. The portions are smaller than expected, so you’ll need to order a few dishes, and the prices are a bit on the higher side. However, I highly recommend the ginger beef—it’s absolutely delicious! Also, every dim sum dish here is fantastic. I’ve been here twice: once with friends and once with family. Both times, I was very satisfied. The ginger beef is a must-try!
