You can choose up to 3 different soup base which is perfect because my husband likes it super spicy, my mom likes it bland and I was still able to order their popular tomato base broth. The food is a la carte with lots of options to choose from. It's a great family meal and perfect for a cold winter day. (Even though we went on a hot summer day. :) Parking is not fun though. My suggestion is to park near the liquor store (old Blockbuster) and walk to restaurant as it's attached to a condo building with very limited parking. Prices vary pending on how much your party eats. We averaged to pay $30 per person. However, in general I really enjoyed it. A fun night out and will be back!

They serve a special type of beef hot pot called ChaoShan Hot Pot (潮汕火鍋) - every part of beef are carefully sliced to allow eaters to enjoy each part of the beef to its fullest. I was at the restaurant during weekday mid afternoon. It was a bit quiet as we are recovering through COVID. The servers are very enthusiastic and have great knowledge about their beef. I ordered a combo to start as it provides me with sample platter of all common beef cuts. The services were very quick. Within minutes, I am served with a clear beef bone soup for hot pot, vegetables, beef balls, tendon, and different cuts of beef in hot pot slices. The cut mainly consists of sirloin, flank, cheek, shank, chuck, rump, and tongue. I can assure you, every bite takes you to a whole new adventure! Starting from the flank, this is the piece where one side is fat and the other is the meat layer. But don't let the layer of fat hold you back, the flavour is smooth yet the soft texture of beef is present. Next is the cheek, this is a prized piece with a soft tender chew, which makes it my favourite piece. The shank consist of two parts- fore shank and hind shank. They are both as good, but I personally prefer the hind shank because it has a softer texture than the fore shank. The chuck has three parts - chuck, chuck rib, and chuck flap. The texture of chuck flap and chuck might have a bit of a chew due to the tendon, but the way it is sliced thinly makes it a delightful cut to enjoy. There are other cuts of beef which I wont explain and will leave it for you to discover. This is a decent portion and a great opportunity for you to try all the different cuts. I highly recommend this place to others. It might be a bit pricey as all dishes are a la carte or combo. But the fact that their beef are fresh daily and never frozen. They maintain the quality standard of meat and you will likely get addicted to it. At least I am!

I never realized I already made a review 2 years ago. However, here is another one. This place is…read moredelicious and absolutely deserves the positive reviews. They source Alberta beef, and the ordering layout is very well done. We ordered the meal for two (which is honestly plenty for four people), and the presentation of the beef on a cow-shaped plate was unique and fun. They also taught us how to cook the beef properly for hot pot, which made a big difference; something I'll now remember to do when I go elsewhere. We chose the beef bone and satay broth, and both were very good. Service was excellent. I love it when servers are honest about portion sizes. She told us that the meal for two would be enough for four people and warned us only to order the meal for four if we were super hungry. That's rare, since most restaurants won't stop you from over-ordering, and I really appreciated it. This is by far my favourite hot pot spot in Calgary. Definitely recommend this place!

The interior of the restaurant has seen better days and they will be undergoing a major renovation from September 21st to 2025. The owner, Jay, was pleasant and attentive. He brought us a plate of complimentary spring rolls with sweet chili sauce. They were piping hot and super crunchy! Our family ordered three personal hot pots to warm us up on a cool autumn afternoon: spicy miso soup with lamb; Tom Yum soup with seafood; kimchi soup with beef. Our soups arrived in a timely fashion on top of individual burners (this was my first time seeing pink gel used as fuel) and they were intensely flavourful. My lamb was tender and the fish cakes, crab sticks, tofu, enoki/brown mushrooms, suey choy, and konjac vermicelli were deliciously satisfying and comforting. As usual, the boys and I had a taste of all three soup bases, and we decided that we liked them all! Just one thing of note: the soup tends to thicken halfway through your meal, so you might need to add a bit of hot water. We will certainly be back!

This restaurant in Calgary's Chinatown was highly recommended by a family member, and they were…read moreabsolutely right. We had been eating overly heavy dinners over the past few days, so we decided to be relatively gentle with our order this time. Here is a breakdown of what we tried: Xiao Long Bao (小籠包 - Soup Dumplings): This is my daughter's favorite, so we ordered two baskets for her. They were executed beautifully. They were well-steamed on a clean sheet, and thankfully, there was no grayish blood seeping out of the meat. The wrapper (麵 皮) was right on the spot--not too hard or soft, not too thick or thin, and it didn't have that rubbery "chewing gum" or mushy "play dough" texture you get at lesser places. The pork filling tasted clean with no funky pork smell. Very nice. Beef and Tendon Noodle Soup: This was just okay, but to be fair, I don't expect a flawless bowl of beef noodle soup from a restaurant that doesn't strictly specialize in it (especially at a Dim Sum-focused spot). The broth was a bit plain and served lukewarm. The tendon, however, was well-cooked and well-marinated with a pleasant taste; it was a bit on the firmer side, which didn't bother me. The noodles were on the softer, sparser side rather than dense and chewy. I personally prefer a firmer noodle, but again, I can't complain too much given the venue. Spicy Tofu and Preserved Egg (麻辣皮蛋豆腐): I really liked this dish. The tofu had a fantastic, fresh soy taste, the preserved egg was delicious, and the chili oil and soy sauce dressing was perfectly balanced. If you are wondering what these "black eggs" are and feel a bit hesitant or concerned about trying them, I highly recommend giving them a shot here. This dish will easily fix those concerns! Overall, it was a great meal. I will definitely return, and next time we have the appetite, I'll dive deeper into the dishes they truly specialize in.

Chinatown is very small maybe only a couple blocks and you'll be able to walk through it all. Went to Regency palace situated upstairs inside a mall. We ticked off what we wanted and food came very fast, it was already made and put inside a cart that had steam to keep it from getting cold. Most dishes were a miss or very underwhelming, but the best dishes were their deep fried squid and taro puff. I have to say Calgary version of deep fried squid is the best compared to Toronto's. It had a light crispy batter like tempura and their taro puff was stuffed with real mashed taro and minced pork. Super delicious. Everything else was meh or flavour was off. Staff is very nice, washroom was located in a scary section where the lights were off. My sister and I were scared to go in, so we got my younger brother to escort us there.
