Gold Bistro Chinese - Calgary, Alberta

I picked up a dinner for two. The manager was very friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere was typical of a Chinese restaurant. The food came out quickly and was hot and fresh. Unfortunately, the food quality was mediocre, and the quantity was quite small in comparison to other Chinese ... food establishments. The buffet looked good, and I heard a couple of people make positive comments about it, but the takeout was disappointing. Read more

Good food , great atmosphere & outstanding service. Will definitely visit again ❤️😋🍜

I went to this restaurant called Gold Bistro Chinese Restaurant in Southeast Calgary (Mindapore). It was a real hidden gem of a restaurant where you really wouldn't expect to have such fresh Asian cuisine. Such friendly owners and also regulars who were patting the back of the chef and also ... the owner. Alan immediately greeted us upon entering the restaurant brought us to our table and told us to continue eating and to please enjoy. While he was tending to all the business of the day, he was also ensuring the quality of the food was to be not looked over. While the selection was intimate, they focused extremely on fresh preparedness, quality ingredients, and enhanced delivery of foods, meaning, every time the pans of food were getting low they would actually take the entire pan back in to refill it entirely with fresh vegetables, seafood, cuts of delicately, prepared meats and fresh veggies. I would have to encourage anyone who loves to dine on freshly prepared Asian cuisine to check out and visit gold Bistro Chinese restaurant in southeast Calgary. They offer the best service and they do offer fresh high quality foods at a fantastic value. Read more

Decided to give this place one last shot. First time I ordered takeout here it was not that great. Second time we went into eat for the buffet at 7 pm. Every tray was empty. Was told sorry but they didn’t want to be stuck with left overs when ... they closed at 9:30. I couldn’t believe it why even be open. The whole restaurant was like what the hell is going on in here? So I decided to give them one more go for some take out on Christmas Eve, figured three strikes and your out. The vegetable was ok but mushy. The fried rice was mush and nothing in it, it tasted awful. Like it was rotting. Lastly the ginger beef was dry no sauce at all? Was plain. Should had a sweet ginger sauce? Must have forgot to put it on. That was their last chance lots of other Chinese food stops in areas. I only ate the vegetables and I got a stomach ache. Read more

Chose this place by Googling “Asian Buffet near me” and found this great little place in south Calgary! Very friendly greeting and an explanation that as it was 7 pm if any of the buffet options were missing or running low just to let them know and it would ... be made up fresh with an intent to not waste food. Options were great: sweet & sour pork, shrimp and broccoli, skinny and fat noodles, stir fry rice, delicious ginger beef 😋, hot & sour soup, wonton soup, salt & pepper squid, chicken and mushrooms, dumplings, sauces, mixed veggies, and more, dessert bar and ice cream selection. The restaurant was spacious, clean bathroom, speedy water refills and lots of people were thanking the staff for a wonderful meal. All positive and priced sensibly 👍 we will aim to go again. Read more
