    two takeout containers of food on a table
    Carla C.

    2 Plates - Fried Rice, Orange Chicken, Sesame Chicken - Mixed Vegetables, Kung Pao Chicken, Bejing Beef Easy to find via Google Maps. It was 8PM and we needed food - fast. Friend recommended this place as it has a drive-through lane so it should be extra fast. Went through the drive-through and ordered. They only had 1 order of sesame chicken available which was tolerable as I wanted to try different foods anyway. After ordering + paying we were told to park in front of the restaurant even though there was no one else in line. Took them a good 12 min to compile our order and bring it out. I do appreciate they brought it out to me in my nice warm car. Unfortunately, upon delivery they said they ran out of fried rice so they subbed in white rice. I was disappointed as I would Much prefer fried to white but it wasn't like I paid more for the fried rice anyway. Then the food had to tolerate a 40min drive home. Was still luke warm upon arrival and held up well considering the long drive. The broccoli was in Huge chunks which made it hard to eat BUT it was still crisp and not soggy so I do appreciate that. Kung Pao Chicken and Bejing Beef tasted and looked exactly the same so not sure which was which (or even if I got both!). A bit spicy but very tolerable even for my weak palate. It was really hard to distinguish between the Orange Chicken and Sesame Chicken too. Can't even say which one I liked more but I could at least tell there were 2 different kinds. Fortune cookies were included at no cost so that was a nice treat. Overall, it is what I would expect from any fast food/mall Chinese food restaurant but slightly faster as long as you're not too fussy if they don't have what you originally wanted.

    This is the third time I have gone thru the drive thru at the Panda Express in West Edmonton. Every single time, I have to wait in front of the store because they never have some item I ordered. Today it was vegetables. I didn't want rice or chow mien. I wanted vegetables as my side. I ordered mushroom chicken, (two pieces of mushrooms) and the angus beef which is a premium item and they charge extra for the beef. In any event, I had to wait for 6 minutes this time at 5:30 pm. Supper time! 10,000 cars leaving Edmonton for outlying communities and they are unprepared. The last time I ordered a medium entry of mushroom chicken that I had to wait for and went into the store after 10 minutes of waiting. That was at lunch time. Let's say I'm not impressed with the management of this store.

    Orange chicken, Shanghai beef, mixed vegetables and chow mein. $10.50 all in.

    This is my go to for Chinese food. The entrees are very flavourful and many to choose from. Everything is usually well stocked during lunch hour and if not they will make it fresh for you. The staff are really polite and friendly. The price is great for the portion size you get. The only thing I wish they would do is add some flavour or salt to there mixed vegetables. They can get bland and a little dry.

I can see this being Very busy if Rogers event center had an event. Place was 20% full Monday at 6PM. The decor is very unique and lovely. We tried the buffet which is on daily. The server brings over wonton soup to start before you head to the buffet. It was great. Overall the buffet was fine. Very fresh and hot but also pretty normal. Nothing stood out as spectacular. The shrimp was very well cooked. The green onion cakes as well were great. The spring rolls were very empty of filling. The chicken dumplings were great. Fried rice and noodles were fine. Lots of breaded meats or well sauced meats. You get a very fresh donut at the end - which was very tasty. Overall a good Chinese food buffet.

    There are legendary restaurants in Edmonton and then there's The Lingnan. Open since 1947 (that's…read more78 years!!!) you would be hard pressed to find an Edmontonian that doesn't have some sort of relationship with this famed Chinese restaurant, its food, or the family who runs it. Speaking of the Quons, they have become celebrities in their own right especially after their family was featured in a season of the TV series The Family Restaurant in 2009 followed by The Quon Dynasty in 2011. The matriarch of the family, Amy Quon, is well known for her warm and friendly demeanor and the way that she takes time to visit with guests. The Lingnan was the first Chinese restaurant in Edmonton and most people would likely tell you that it remains the best. VUE Weekly named The Lingnan the #1 Best Chinese 2018. The Edmonton Journal has voted them Best/Favourite Chinese Restaurant 2020, 2021, 2022, and 2023. And EDify Magazine awarded them the Best Chinese Restaurant 2023 title. The list of accolades is long and with good reason. I have personally eaten at The Lingnan many times over the years and I have always appreciated their quality and consistency. I decided to pay them a visit on a recent Sunday evening to revisit this Chinese institution. Located in Central McDougall right behind Rogers Place, the restaurant's tall vertical signage and red and yellow paint cannot be mistaken. They've also got a really cool mural painted on the side of the building. The interior is impressive, expansive, and ornate. Entering the restaurant you'll first be greeted by a life-size bronze statue of a Chinese warrior. Next you'll marvel at their large (and very clean!) aquarium stocked with giant goldfish. The space will take your breath away and there is certainly no where else like it in the city. Every inch is beautifully decorated and the colours of red and gold create the palette. Intricate Chinese lanterns hang from the ceiling. The tiling, the art, and the gilded accents stretch as far as the eye can see. There are at least three different dining rooms and many of these areas can be sectioned off to create even more spaces. Each table is covered with a white table cloth and servers in traditional Chinese clothing hurry about the room. A reservation is highly recommended because even on a Sunday night every single table was occupied and there was a lineup of people waiting to be seated. The Lingnan's patrons are loyal, many of them having spent their entire lives eating meals at the restaurant. A feast for the eyes, simply dining at The Lingnan is an experience in itself. Once seated and settled it was difficult to ignore the flurry of activity all around. Happy customers enjoying their meals, the aroma of delicious plates of food passing by, and the gorgeous jade-coloured ceiling with a dragon in the center of it. Looking for a beverage to match the atmosphere, a warm cup of Chinese Jasmine Tea would've been a wonderful choice. However, I ventured to the cocktail menu for something a bit more special. The China Moon (Soho Lychee, Hipnotiq, Blue Curacao, pineapple - $10.00) caught my attention. A beautiful green-hued beverage to match the ceiling overhead! I appreciated the list of custom cocktails, created to suit the restaurant. Seemingly a modern addition, these drinks elevate the dining experience by complimenting the food and overall ambiance. I loved this sweet, easy-drinking beverage and the flavours of lychee and pineapple were a delight. It's very chic to be sitting with a China Moon in hand. Like any good Chinese restaurant, take-out is a major component of the business. However, another more recent update has been the addition of a buffet. For the exceedingly reasonable price of $31 (every day of the week) you can feast upon some of The Lingnan's most popular dishes. I have enjoyed the buffet on several occasions in the past but on this particular visit I was interested in sampling some of the restaurants more upscale and unique dishes. But first let's take a moment for the Dry Spicy Chicken. An entire blog could be written about this dish alone. In fact, this chicken used to have its own restaurant. A true staple Edmontonian dish and affectionately nicknamed "crack chicken," we all mourn the loss of Chicken for Lunch. Operating out of the Rice Howard Place food court (lunchtime on weekdays only) and run by Amy Quon herself, this place used to attract immense lineups. Why? I mean, they did sell a variety of items but everyone was there for the addictive Hot and Dry chicken. Amy always treated everyone like they were someone special and she still does. With Chicken for Lunch gone, all is not lost because this famous chicken is still on the menu at The Lingnan! Available in both appetizer and entree sizes, I could not imagine visiting the restaurant without ordering it. On this visit I went for the Appetizer Dry Spicy Chicken ("Amy's Chicken." Breast meat strips lightly battered and stir fried with our home made chili oil

Huge change from the dark paint and warehouse styling from the previous AYCE sushi place. They have divided the space nicely including a large private room. It also helps that YEG's notorious Boyle St Co-op, formerly next door, has been raised to the ground, thus moving the hardcore zombies a few blocks north. You can actually park your vehicle safely in their free lot now, for up to 2 hours. Security is watching and even checks in with you when you park. As for the food, in my experience it's all been great! The menu is a funny combo of different cuisines, definitely befitting the name "bistro". There are a variety of asian dishes (Chinese, Japanese, Thai), HK-style foods and very traditional western cuisine like beef bourguignon. That one intrigues me, super old school and looks really good. There are also some set menus that come with drinks. It's one of the few places I feel spoiled for interesting selection, hard to make a choice. Chinatown Dining Week has brought me back here three times in as many weeks, got hooked by the beef and sour veg steamed in a lotus wrap. This visit my husband got the gyukatsu set, which was really good if you can live with slightly sweet Glico-style curry. The omurice was perfect. Their katsu particularly is really, really good, better than your average schnitzel, and much cheaper! Have been back a few times and even brought the extended family. There's something for everyone! Everything we've tried has been tasty, fresh and a generous portion. Previously we tried the bistro premium fried rice which had scallops and tobiko, delicious. My food-restricted niece tried the crispy shrimp appy, which were really tasty and more like prawn-size. Not sure she got many back after offering to share with the table. Ah Chinatown. Been coming here my whole life but always get the side-eye, usually from the owner, until ordering. The experience wouldn't be the same without it.

The chicken casserole was flavourful, just a lot of bones. The beef was very soft and tender. The sweet and sour pork chops had a thick tangy sauce but good that it had a light batter around the meat, which kept the meat moist. The chicken is the typical dish you can get at most Chinese restaurants. It was interesting that it actually sat in a soy sauce base. The ginger sauce is missing the typical green onions. However, it was seasoned quite well. I didn't take a picture of dessert though. It was red bean with glutinous rice sweet soup. I actually quite enjoyed it. Overall: 3.5/5. It's an ok place to try if you are in the area. It's has free parking. Just be vigilent with the bowls and utensils.
