Dog food. Is better. Tastes like week old desiccated animal carcass. I'm pretty sure this isn't edible. Place should be closed down. read more

We ordered take out from Dragon Gate twice this week, it was that good. Thank you for the delicious food!

Good food, warm and tasty. This is our go to for Chinese! Never been disappointed with the Ginger beef, and the salt and pepper squid.

If you like fried, you'll love it! But if you try to get just regular (leaner) cooked meat, not sure what to order but I didn't get what I expected and what I usually order at other places (with the same names on the menu.) Salt and pepper shrimps were fresh but again covered with batter. Garlic spare ribs were also deep friend and covered in the thickest batter. On top of that, they gave us one fortune cookie...not 2, at least? It's not like I need those anyways but that just show how cheap they might be. That's why I have my got to for Chinese food and I might stop trying some new places. I won't be back here anytime soon. read more

Dragon Gate Restaurant - a tray of food and a container of chicken - Chinese Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

We were visiting Calgary (from Texas) and stayed across the street and searched Yelp for a Chinese Food restaurant. Fate hooked us up with a great place. I rated Dragon Gate 5 stars because the dishes we ordered were excellent, both in taste and portions. We ordered beef with green beans with black bean sauce and also a chicken chow mein plate. The beef and chicken were very tender. The waitress, Jennifer, was OUTSTANDING. She was very helpful in helping us decide what we wanted and even suggested we buy different entrees because their portions were large enough to share. She was right. Prices are very reasonable,too. The restaurant is clean and pleasant but it is a little off-set from the street and easy to pass by. I suggest that you concentrate and also take a large appetite with you when you go. Dragon Gate will not disappoint you. read more

Dragon Gate Restaurant - Dragon Gate Restaurant is between the ODEON and MAD ROSE PUB buildings. 33 Ave. SW & 20 St. SW - Chinese Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

The food is not the same as in the past, possibly new cool. Either way the beef and broccoli came with carrots? And the daughter who has been there for over twenty years said they always have beef and broccoli with carrots, that to me is not my experience in fact I would call that beef and mixed vegetables. To this end, don't order here as they are obviously tying to cut costs and quality is now suffering and portion size, we ordered dinner for 3 and it was not worth the price as hardly any beef with broccoli and the rice was stale and hard gummy tasting. Will stick to silver dragon despite the fact that they are expensive but as the saying goes you pay for what you get. read more

Possibly the worst Chinese food we have ever had. We ordered some ginger beef. It was a disaster. Ginger beef being a Calgary creation should be a success in all Calgary restaurants This place actually managed to mess it up. It was overly hard, full of sauce, and missing the beef. We had other dishes as well. We left our food on the table, unfortunately we just couldn't take another bite. The pork had the "Freezer burn taste", and the veggies were overly cooked. The staff were talking loud as well. They were sitting at a table conversing, and just made it hard to "Think". We did not enjoy this place at all. For a nice neighborhood and being the only Chinese restaurant in the area we expected more. read more

Dragon Gate Restaurant - Entrance - Chinese Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

That's for the food, but a 4star for its cleanliness, good service and high end furniture! Looks like walking into the emperor's palace with its redwood, nicely carved tables & chairs...is def pricey. A handful of tables, even offer a lunch buffet for $8.95 fr 11am - 2pm. Parking can be tight during busy hours but just hate that ramp entering/leaving, not for those low sports cars, i scraped my rental car front bumper... asked for their specialty dish, and beef broccoli was ok, pretty good value, enough for 2 meals. read more

I ordered Wonton soup, moo shu pork and singapore noodles. I would compare it to mall food...maybe worse. The owner greeted me at the door, she is so hyper you feel rushed. It's not a comfortable welcoming. The wonton soup was the worst I've had in Calgary; a bouillon cube broth with ok wontons and a handful of peas thrown in - really disappointing. The singapore noodle was a heap of rice noodles tossed with too much curry powder and not blended enough so it was powdery and dry with not enough veggies. The Moo shu pork was a nice assortment of veggies but the pork tasted funny and was mixed in a sticky salty sauce - commercially prepared . I make better chinese food at home. Nothing seemed homemade and there is no love in this food. But you get what you pay for as prices are not high. I'd rather pay more for a bit of quality. read more

The food is always great. The staff are also super friendly and accommodating to dietary restrictions, recommending specific items or modifying menu items to suit your needs. My partner has celiac disease and the owner/ manager is always very accommodating and helpful. Make sure she knows your situation and she will do her best to recommend items for you. Of course there is always a risk of cross contamination, but my partner has never had a reaction from eating here. This is our favourite gluten aware Chinese restaurant in Calgary. read more

Lunch Buffet after 1pm...1 star. WARNING...do NOT come here after 1pm! The food is just simply awful. The only edible items were the stir-fried vegetables and noodles. Everything else was just rock hard and stale. I've ordered take out here many times and the food has been pretty decent...being the only Chinese restaurant in the area, I would consider it a blessing. It's average at best, but it's better than nothing. There are a lot of hits and misses, but with such an extensive menu you'll likely find plenty of dishes to enjoy. Having never tried their lunch buffet, I thought I'd I give it a go. And for only $9.40 including GST, it's hard to beat. But man, was I sorely disappointed! This is by far the smallest buffet I've ever seen. The whole food area is smaller than my office desk! There are 9 food trays the size of those you'd find in a gelato ice cream shop, and the food stand is no bigger than a hot dog push cart. Next to the food stand is a table for plates, soup bowls (but I didn't see any soup) and sauce trays, as well as, about 3 different kinds of dipping sauces. I guess in this case, you really do get what you pay for. But despite the limited number of items, they all looked quite appetizing (except for the stir-fried noodles, which is as plain as it gets being simply cooked in soy sauce...not much different from your typical Chinese food court offering). Then again, now a days, Chinese food courts have come a long way and are really just as good as your average Chinese restaurant. Anyway, in addition to the stir-fried noodles, there was sweet and sour pork, egg rolls, deep fried wings and spare ribs, fried rice, salt and pepper calamari, stir-fried vegetables and fried pot stickers. There's another dish but I can't seem to remember it. Everything tasted as it should; even the calamari was surprisingly top notch in flavor. But the real let down was how hard all the protein items had become. I don't know if it was the time I came to dine or the warming lamps, or both, but the calamari and spare ribs had the consistency of cardboard. Even the sweet and sour sauce couldn't save the pork. This was quite sad cause they were all seasoned well. I hate returning to the scene of the crime, but I feel I must prove my theory correct and put the blame on my ill timed lunch visit. True, there's no excuse for leaving out stale food but this IS a buffet, after all, and not fine dining...so buyer beware. I shall return tomorrow promptly at 11am and then update my review accordingly. read more

Just some pretty darn good Chinese food. Staff is super nice and food was really good. Huge portions for leftovers!!

Great decor, food and service. The two waitresses assisting my table were incredibly sweet. The ginger beef, chow mien, fried rice and spring rolls were delicious and a great value for a table of four. The restaurant was also very well organized and clean, with a peaceful setting. read more

This is about as good as it gets for Chinese food in Calgary, at least outside of the downtown area. Their dumplings are to die for, I tell ya. And the buffet is pretty reasonably priced and has a wide variety of items. They never screw anything up and they are pretty fast. I also recommend the sizzling rice (not the shrimp one!). I think this place compares well with Bill's Peking House for being a Chinese place that is surprisingly good outside of the downtown area. Also, the prices aren't terrible. I don't know how long that will last because anyone who goes here will probably ending up being a repeat customer. read more

This is a gem in Marda Loop. We ordered there a few weeks ago on a Saturday night and it was delicious. Our food was ready for pickup within 15 minutes, and was steaming hot and fresh. The ginger beef was crunchy and had just the right amount of sauce. The rice was tender, noodles fresh! Honestly sooo good. My only complaint was that I tried to order there again about a week ago and they didn't answer both times I called. This is some of the best chinese I've had in awhile :) read more

Best Chinese food ever, and great friendly service. I've been coming here for over 6 years and is consistently great food.

I quit eating Chinese food until I found this place. Everything I've tried is good and the lemon chicken is perfect.

Wow, just not a great place for Chinese food. Greasy, super garlicky and super salty. Cold pre frozen dumplings added to a warmish War Won Ton soup broth. Cold chicken added to overly brown flavoured chicken fried rice and super crispy syrupy Ginger fried beef. ( oh wait, there was NO beef or meat of any kind in this dish, only dough). Service was slow - restaurant was not busy but they were very busy with their takeout clients rather than the people who showed up. There are so many other average places that beat this place hands down. read more
