We happened to end up at this place during their "happy hour". Being from the Bay we wanted to get some chinese food. We happened to arrive during their "happy hour" so we got some "linner" prices. Hubs ordered the house special tossed noodle. He liked it cuz he felt it was authentic. He liked the fried garlic that added an extra kick. I had the bbq roast duck noodle soup cuz I was wanting some comfort food. I was impressed with the roast duck that was not fatty and the little bit of onion helped accent the flavor of the soup. Hubs especially the duck sauce which he thought was strong but once you get used to it he said it brought out the flavor of the duck. The service and ambiance was your typical chinese restaurant. Nothing great, nothing bad, nothing to be expected. I would definitely come back if I was in the area and craving chinese food. read more

We've been going to Sun's now for over two decades, and although the interior decor has changed, the quality of the food hasn't. My go-to dish is the Japanese-style boneless chicken udon, but this time I tried the chili beef flank in noodle soup, and it was great. Service is prompt and efficient, always. read more

Sun's BBQ Restaurant - a large pile of meat - Chinese Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

I eat at Sun's an average of twice a week, mostly for the BBQ, and have been doing so for over 25 years. What more can I say than that. I would give 5 stars if the soft drinks were not ridiculously priced. As far as the food, the roast duck, soya sauce and queen chicken are always prepared to perfection and under $20.00 for a decent sized meal. Sometimes my rice comes cold but that they correct swiftly. read more

Good Cantonese BBQ! This restaurant is inside a Chinese Mall in Chinatown, there are a few shops on the second floor mainly travel agent and other offices, on the ground floor is the restaurant and also an Asian Market. Food is HK Style, fast and no nonsense, during busy hours eg: Lunch & Dinner, you will have to share tables if you come by yourself or just the two of you! If you are lucky that may be quite a pleasant experience to chat with another patron. Service also is no nonsense and straight forward don't expect any pleasantries! Just eat and go kinda attitude, food is good tho very solid Cantonese fare good for large parties, portions are huge so everything is designed to be shared! They also take credit cards! read more

It is a pretty good place to eat at during the weekdays. There are a lot of people that do go there during the weekend and the parking lot is pretty small. Service was good, although they do run around a lot. During the weekdays it is pretty quiet, but since a lot of families and friends meet here, it can get quite loud. Otherwise food was good! read more

We came here twice on our trip. The chashu is really good here. It was super tender and not super fatty. Their roasted duck was also SOOO tender too. Their meats are delicious. I personally didn't like their basil chicken due to the numbing sensation. I never had that happen before and so I was just shocked from the spices. Everything else was pretty good and I enjoyed the food. They do pretty good Chinese food here. read more

I heard this place has good wonton noodle and congee. I wanted to give it a try. I found the noodle average. Wontons are slight above average as they do have a large shrimp. Congees are average. We also ordered seafood noodle and pork chop rice. Seafood noodle does have lots of seafood. I have to say though, the portion is slightly smaller than I thought. The service is slow. It is very hard to get any waitress or waiter attention. read more

My husband and I went with two other couples on a Saturday night to Sun's BBQ after visiting Kananaskis Nordic Spa. We felt quite limited for where we could eat late in Calgary as we did not arrive back until after 10 pm. For late night eats, Sun's BBQ is perfect as it's open until 2 am on Saturday nights. The food was delicious! If you're a lover of Chinese food like myself, you will not be disappointed. They do some of the classic greasy Chinese dishes such as the beef ho fan with bean sprouts and they do it very well. As well, one of my favorite dishes growing up was the crispy chicken with prawn chips and again it was extremely well done. Prices are pretty standard ranging from 14 dollars to 20 dollars per dish or so but since everything is shareable, you can get a variety of dishes, with rice and tea as your sides and your group can have a good selection of food. Also the tobiko fried rice was amazing; I highly recommend this dish. You can also never go wrong with the sweet and sour ribs with pineapple. This is delicious little Chinese restaurant; pretty good prices and well done food overall. I will be coming back when I'm in Calgary next! read more

Sun's BBQ Restaurant - Very unprofessional - Chinese Near Me - Calgary, Alberta

It had been a long time since we ventured out for Chinese food with the kids and honestly did not know where to go. So I came to Yelp (of course) and searched up places to go. Sun's was one that stood out on our side of town and off we went. Although after reading the reviews we were a little concerned about the service since several reviews point out service was not great. We arrived between 4:30-5pm. The lunch crowd was clearing out so we got a table by the window. So far so good. Menus and tea came right away. Big menu, lots of choices. We ordered four dishes based on what we thought the kids would like, so simple: house friend rice, sweet and sour pork, ginger beef and black bean chicken hotpot. There was a male server we flagged down a few times and he was really good. Our food came relatively quickly and steaming hot. The kids loved it all, I was so impressed at how much they ate. It was delicious. The only downside to our experience was at least 3-4 pieces of the shrimp in the house friend rice had not been de-veined. Since we all know what that black line is (yuck), my husband spotted and removed those shrimp quickly. We flagged over the waitress for our bill and took the leftovers home which we enjoyed the next day. We came with low service and high food expectations and since we came at a good time before the dinner rush, we weren't overly disappointed in the service. read more

There are multiple occasions where I drive by this place without thinking anything of it. Jaime, Christine and I had a late girls night and it was time to head home. On the way, I was really wanting to stop by somewhere but didn't say anything when mind reader Christine mentioned she was hungry for a snack. Immediately I smiled and told her I was thinking the exact same thing. We yelped a bit and pondered what we wanted to eat when she mentioned Sun's. She said they had late hours and decent Chinese food for late dining. SURE, I said. Sun's BBQ is just off Centre street, they have their own parking lot but boy at this late hour it was pretty packed. Walking towards the door I noticed little kids coming out with their parents. It reminded me of late night eats in Hong Kong, LOUD, fast paced, chaotic but cool....doesn't matter what time in the AM it is, there's always people having some good eats and laughing. We were quickly greeted and offered tea. Christine and I decided to go for some sweet 'n' sour pork with pineapple and mayonnaise and we ordered a large order of rice because who doesn't like smothering the rice in the sweet and sour sauce?! Anyway, it didn't take long for the order to come and it was just what we wanted. Crispy, greasy, fatty....perfect! I enjoyed the diced onions and peppers, it gave the dish nice crunch. The sweet and sour pork also had a drizzle of mayo on top which we both agreed was unnecessary and could do without. The portion of rice was large (as ordered), and it was nice and fluffy. Overall, this place is definitely the place to be if you are craving some decent late night Chinese food whether it's one of those drunken nights or that late tummy growling night....they offer a whole ton of food! Give them a try!! read more

I spent my formative years in Malaysia, so I have an affinity for places that have the look, feel, and flavor of places I frequented during that time. Sun's BBQ is one of these. Sun's is a very casual, and always very busy, annex of a popular Asian grocery store. It's one of those confusing Asian places that has a number of different menus, some in English, some in Cantonese (Mandarin?), and some bilingual. In addition, there are a number of specials advertised on various table placards and wall posters. The food is mainly Chinese, with various dishes from other Asian cultures (though I suspect the authenticity of the non-Chinese dishes). There's a bustling, frantic energy to this place, and I fully expected the food to be hastily prepared and presented. I also expected at least one of our orders to be mistaken. Happily, however, none of this was the case. Everything was fresh, nicely plated, and delicious. I need to come back here a few more times to sample the breadth of the menu(s), but so far everything I've had has been excellent. read more

This is one of my favourite Chinese restaurants in Calgary. The atmosphere here is very casual and quite typical for a Chinese restaurant. The restaurant is spacious and can easily fit large groups of 8 to 10 people. The service here is pretty good relative to most Chinese restaurants - I've never had anyone slam a dish on the table here. There are an abundant amount of waitresses here, so service is pretty quick. During prime meal hours this restaurant gets quite busy, so if you plan to go here for lunch it is probably best to show up a bit earlier. I am not sure if you can make reservations here, but I have never had to. The food here is reasonably priced and the serving portions are huge; I always have a lot of trouble finishing the food I order here. Depending on the portion size that you get, the average prices range from under $10 and from $10 to $20. I go here specifically when I am craving hot and sour soup. Most places that serve this dish tend to do a very sloppy job of it (either they make it to vinegary, or they don't have enough ingredients in it). Sun's does a phenomenal of making it; the flavour is perfect and there's an abundant amount of ingredients that they use (IE. mushrooms, BBQ meat, bamboo, etc.). In addition to hot and sour soup, I like to get the "yin yang" dish. I am actually not sure what its called, but it is a seafood rice dish with half of the rice covered in a white cream sauce and the other half in a red tomato sauce. This and the soup are one of my favourite dishes and they are cooked quite well here. read more

Stopped here to pick up half BQ Duck and a pound of BQ Pork . The meat was very fresh and very tasty. Tastes so great when you buy fresh and make rice at home to eat with it . Any leftovers , it makes awesome fried rice ! We will have to come try dining in at this restaurant soon . read more

Don't be fooled by the prices on the menu - the portion sizes you get here are ginormous and worth every penny. Honestly I think this might be the best chinese food I've had in Canada or in the United States - that's really saying something as most chinese food for me is either good but not memorable or bad to the point of being compared to an americanized chinese place :D. Strongly recommend the beef flat noodle (one of the cheaper items on the menu and can easily feed 2-3 people). Lots of noodles, tender beef and bean sprouts. I personally also like the deep fried chicken (comes with shrimp crackers). Our crackers were a bit stale but the chicken is supremely juicy and tender, with crisp flavorful skin. Dip in a little of the salt mixture and you're good to go (note: it's potent). You get a cup of sugar water (tong sui) at the end of your meal too for a light way to end what would be likely a food coma inducing meal based on how much you eat. Note: they charge you for rice. :(. Go with a large group so you can sample the menu! read more

After a horrible day, I stopped to grab a bite with a friend. The both of us were wiped out and starving, so we were happy to get a nice comfy booth to sink into. I was surprised to see that the menu was all asian noodle dishes, mainly soups. The benefit was that everything was pretty inexpensive, but the downfall was that I was craving protein like no one's business. Luckily they also had a lunch menu that had some pretty interesting dishes. My friend settled on a chicken soup, and I got crispy noodles with beef in special sauce as the lunch special. I was pleasantly surprised to get a drink with that, so I grabbed some warm soy which I developed a weird fetish for when I was in Asia. I was definitely a happy camper. Our server was pretty sweet, and he definitely made sure we were comfortable and all set up. Our dishes came and they were HUGE. My noodles in sauce were awesome, although I found the beef a little overwhelming. My friend's soup was alright, but she ended up helping me finish off my dish and taking hers to go. Finally, we grabbed some of the restaurant's BBQ pork to go. It was a great deal, and it is some of the best pork that I've had in Calgary. I was definitely impressed, so the next time I'm craving noodles or sweet and succulent BBQ pork, I'll be back. read more

Sun Chiu Kee is definitely a place I've gone back time and time again. I love their salt and pepper egg plant - if you love egg plant, you want to order this dish; it might make you love egg plant even more! Sometimes there's a long wait, but that really depends what time you get there. You have to beat out all the regulars that go there haha. If you've got a small group of friends, its fun here. Hot pot or just any of their meat dishes are great to share. Two last words: lychee slurpee. read more

If you have a hankering for steaming hot congee (Chinese rice porridge) and Chinese barbecue meats (duck, royal chicken, soy chicken, roast pig (siu yook), barbecued pork(char siu)), you've come to the right place. The good: they have an extensive menu and have always been able to deliver flavourful, fresh, piping hot food. My favourites include the BBQ combos (duck, soy chicken noodle soup), rice crepe wrapped Chinese donut, wonton/dumpling in tossed noodles, beef and rice noodles, congee and Singapore fried rice noodles. I couldn't say the same for the drinks, since we've always had Chinese tea or ice water with our meals. The bad: this is a typical Hong Kong style cafe with good food and bad service. Today there was a huge lineup in front of the barbecue meats counter and no-one was there to greet us as we walked into the restaurant (so I just found a table and sat down). It's a lot of hard work trying to flag down a server; they always seem to be looking the other direction. Also, the garnishes on each dish may not be the same as you had before--e.g. their beef congee usually comes garnished with green onions, but one time it came with crushed peanuts on top. Our son was extremely disappointed, since he has a peanut allergy. The ugly: the bathrooms are disgusting (which is why I try not to go to bathrooms in Chinese restaurants) and the parking lot is a nightmare (to drive into and to drive out). Especially on a weekend, street parking would be a safer option. read more

Love the Chinese barbecue meats! Best in town! I usually order take out or go there for lunch / afternoon tea. When the place is busy, u need to get numbers for lining up to get a table; sometimes u don't, just walk inside and tell them how many people. I think it's confusing for people who do not know the language. The service is up and down; it depends on who is helping your table. The managers are all pretty nice; but it seems the customers are invisible for some of the staffs! But so far this is the only place the cashier listen to my instruction to pack my order. When I order take out, my ECO friendly husband feels very guilty that we waste so many one time use things. So we decided to do something to limit the waste. So everytime we order take out, we will tell them not to give us setting (plastic spoon, chopsticks..) and sauces that we do not need. And especially the napkins!!! they are always wet after absorbing the heat and steam from the food. Today I went there and ordered something from the afternoon tea special menu, and told the cashier (Ming is the name shows on the receipt) not to give me sugar and setting. When I was home, I found out she really remembered what I said!!!! Very good! coz other places always repeat what I say (do not need setting!) but still give me everything! read more

THE best place in Calgary for roast duck! My friend told me about this place a few years ago and we always stop by for lunch now whenever we're in town. You can either eat in restaurant-style or pick up your meats like you would at the butcher shop, easy peasy. They also have roast and barbecue pork, not just duck. Our usual order is the BBQ #1 combo with the roast duck. Huge portions, so make sure you bring your appetite! The skin on the duck is crispy so it's got some slight crunch to it, and it tastes sooo good dunked in plum sauce. The combo is served with a huge helping of white rice, Chinese greens and a bowl of hot soup. We tried the cream corn soup too but it was really watery, not thick like it should be. We also tried the shrimp-stuffed tofu, which wasn't bad overall but could have used more shrimp meat. I think we'll just stick to the roast duck here from now on, you can never go wrong with it! read more

This is the place i always get my bbq pork and bbq duck take out. Tonight decided to come here instead of cooking. I have been craving some congee so I order the lean pork and thousand year old egg congee. This is always my go to when I'm sick or just wants something to warm me up. It came in a hot bubbling clay pot. Flavourful and not too salt which was nice. We always order shanghai noodles and garlic & Onion beef in oyster sauce on hot plate. The noodles where saucy and seasoned well with lots of toppings. The beef hot plate came out sizzling and the beef was super tender. There was lots of onions and garlic and peppers. There was whole cloves of garlic in there, woah they could have chopped it up more. We left super full and happy. Look forward to next time. read more

Delicious BBQ items and great comfort Chinese food. The roast duck was juicy and flavorful. The bbq pork perfectly balanced sweet, savory, and char.

They also have pretty good lunch and late night specials. read more

Sun's BBQ is an authentic Chinese cafe ... and even an adventurous eater like me treads lightly through this menu. From pig's ears, to duck necks, to chicken feet ... all of it! I like the Wor Wonton Soup Hot Pot with a side of Salt and Pepper Tofu. (...Comfort food...) The restaurant is always packed and service is brisk. Bonus: Every once and a while you might get seated by the live crab tank. So, you know ... a little dinner entertainment! read more

This place is AMAZING! Beware: the parking at this plaza is awful. Sometimes I dread going there because of the parking. It has different menus during the day and evening.

fish ball & fish cake taste bland and doughy, worse than anything that you can buy from T&T or Korean foodmart.

We've been going here for awhile and never had that bad of service, until today. My husband and I went for lunch. I ordered their BBQ duck noodles and he ordered off their tea time menu, fried ho fan with beef. Mine came right away, his NEVER CAME! We wait nearly 45 mins for his dish. We've inquired with the servers at least 4 times to see where his dish is. They all said it's coming, it got to the point where it never did and we gave up. We got up and paid for my BBQ Duck Noodles, and left. We will not be going back here anytime soon. I would also say that this is a common issue with them where sometimes you have to ask the server where the food is after an unusually long period of time. But they use to check the back and get back to you and your food will be out. This time, after inquiring 4-5 times.... it just never came. This is the first time I had to walk out of a restaurant after waiting way too long for food. Don't be surprised if you have to do the same. read more

Food is mediocre. Some food taste okay while others taste like crap. Nothing special and some dishes are very small in portion. Not very clean either. A couple of the bowls still have food stuck in them and the waitress clearly saw it and still decided to give it to us. Bathroom is also dirty and there's only one. Service is absolutely terrible. Waitress had an attitude and talks back to you making snide comments. She gave us two teapots of water instead of tea and when we told her about it she cut us off and spoke in an annoyed tone telling us to check the other teapot. It wasn't until we had to physically show her did she replace it. Ordered stuff and it was forgotten. Some of the dishes came late and I mean like 1 hour late. Asked the employees there and they all rudely replied they're making it. Asked for cups of water and it never came. They also overcharged/incorrectly charged me. In short, don't come here as food isn't very good, service is crap, not very clean. There are plenty of other options in Calgary. read more

This is our go to spot when we want a casual quick chinese meal. This is a hong kong style cafe. Do not go here if you are looking for lots of service. They'll take you to a table; give you a menu. When you are ready to order, you will most likely have to wave someone down. The food will come when its ready and if you need anything you will have to wave for a server. Everyone comes here for the food and not the service. We like to go later at night because they have the menus with special items. Some of our favourite dishes are the squash with black olives (its got chilis), congee, hot and sour soup, thai style ho fan and beef with enoki. read more

This is a typical Hong Kong style cafe. If you look up the definition of cafe it generally says something to the effect that it is a restaurant serving various beverages and light meals. Light meals don't apply to the type of fare here, the portions are generous and generally involve carbs like rice and noodles with meat and maybe some vegetables. Chinese food Hong Kong style means that it will include dishes that have been "asianized". You will have forms of spaghetti that you will never taste in any other type of restaurant together with the usual fast-food noodle shop fare that is barbecued pork, roast pork and roast duck served over rice, over noodles or with soup & noodles. You will also get rice dishes with tomato sauce that you won't find in any other type of Chinese restaurant. The menu will include popular Thai dishes as well as dishes from other Chinese regions such as Fukkien, Chiu Chow and other areas. In typical Hong Kong fashion, if it's popular and tasty and will sell ,they'll include it in the menu. I love the roast pork here, one of the best in the city in my opinion, lean and yet the skin is crisp perfection. Tea is automatically served in plastic tumblers (very common in Asia) and it will be hot so don't grab and gulp if you're thirsty and risk scalding your throat and tongue. Cheap eats and fairly fast is the norm. Service is typical "tell me what you want and if we have it you'll get it, if not, too bad." Don't expect to chit-chat or exchange pleasantries with the wait-staff. Decent food for a decent price. read more

Great place to get something to eat any time of day. Asian food of course, but a lot of selection for any body to enjoy. I have to say their bar b q meats are great in flavour and tender. Awesome soya sauce chicken, I highly recommend and I have eaten a lot of soya sauce in my lifetime so you must try. You will not be disappointed. Do not expect first class service here, but they are quite prompt and will do what they can, they mostly are quite busy. Must try if you are a calgary native. Will become a go to anytime you have a late night hunger. read more

If you're used to Chinese restaurants then it's fantastic, but otherwise the atmosphere can be quite loud and messy (especially the washroom!) and service would be considered bad. We arrived later around 9PM and it was only starting to pick up. Apparently they open until 1AM. We were visiting Calgary and came to Sun's in place of Tai Pan and we were happy to have done so as the food was beyond our expectations. We all agreed that this place might have been the best meal we've had during our entire trip. We were seated quickly and food arrived fairly quickly. We were sitting closer to the kitchen so we never had a problem with our tea being left without a refill. The service was meehhh but not terrible. And my Aunt and Mom spoke Canto so that may have helped. Pricing was decent. They charge for rice but each bowl is massive and can be shared between two people. If you enjoy the smokey-wok flavour type of Asian food (and on the saltier side) then this is the place for you. Food has to be exceptional if service is meehhh! read more
