    Tracey P.

    Cherry Inn has been our "go-to" Chinese take out joint for as far back as I can remember. It's a family run business, and owner Yen always has a warm smile and handshake at the ready for customers. The restaurant is small and usually crowded, particularly on weekends. Just entering can be a challenge at peak times with people waiting to be seated and others retrieving their take out orders. In spite of the chaos one meets at the entrance, the staff is quick to seat you. Tables are very closely nestled together so if it's intimate dinner conversation you want, this isn't the place for you. Service is quick and efficient. Dishes arrive hot and in quick succession. The food is generally very good, both eat in and take out, but sometimes suffers from a lack of consistency. For example, I've had excellent Ginger Beef there, but I've also had it where it's been tough and chewy. Overall though, I've been hard-pressed to find Chinese food that I like better, particularly close to home.

    While the food is great here - they recently cut the size of of the main dishes by cleverly changing the packaging - you now get a little less then you use to get - keep this in mind. Still great quality though!

    The food quality and taste has really gone downhill. Very bland. Will not re-order from here again.

    I've been ordering from here for 30 years! Best takeout ever. They'll even make their food without MSG if you request it.

    Chicken ball tastes like flour and spring roll taste like flour and been sprout. Safeway makes better spring rolls than that

A friend invited me to this restaurant. He explained that they have serious, authentic Szechwan fare, but would choose things that even a lao wai like myself could enjoy. Not gonna lie, there was some _heat_, but the flavours were more than worth it. I was probably the only pale guy in the place, which is often a good sign for a Chinese restaurant. The place was very busy, but the staff was incredibly thoughtful. The service was excellent and the food arrived rapidly. I shouldn't say "food". It was a Feast. Everything was cooked to perfection and simply delicious. My only warning (apart from listen to them when they say, "spicy") is that it is authentic. Some dishes will have the bones in. Some might have elements that you're not supposed to eat. Just like many European dishes don't intend for you to eat the whole cloves or peppercorns. If you don't have a native guide, just let the staff know. Judging from my own experiences, they'll treat you right.

    Yesterday I was quite happy so I decided to order dishes from this restaurant using uber eat. Then…read moreI was disappointed. The portions were small and did not taste very well. I have never been to this restaurant. So the good news is I don't need to go to this restaurant any more. Compared to other restaurants like Chili house, T pot, this restaurant is just "let's forget about it".

Silver Dragon offers a unique experience having some dishes not carried in the united States. And the prices were cheap. Everything is moving fast too especially with a group the knows what they want. I think it made it confusing to the cart ladies trying to listen to everyone speaking at the same time but they provided correct answers. Everything was well done and presented. We got shrimp and pork shumai, pork buns, baked pork buns, egg custards, short ribs, etc. All in all we picked up about 20 dishes. That came to about $200 Canadian dollars, about $137 American dollars. With prices like that the thought of moving to Canada is real. However, the cold winter snow prevents me entertaining that thought at length.

    Yelpers need to step it up in Calgary. Only 171 reviews when Google has almost 2,400 reviews?…read more Silver Dragon was the most reviewed and highest rated dim sum restaurants in Calgary. I'm not sure why. The siu mai was mushy. The har gow was okay. The beef rice noodle roll was tasteless. My wife didn't like it. The tofu skin roll (sin jook goon) was not very good either. We only ordered 4 dishes because what we ordered was not good. We didn't want to order anything else. The worst dimsum place in the San Gabriel Valley is better than this place. Not a fan of this place. They might be better for dinner? Non dimsum? Service was better than the food.

Ok so the food is super cheap.. BUT ALSO, THE FOOD WAS ACTUALLY IMPRESSIVE TOO???? NOT TOO OILY, NOT TOO SALTY, GOOD AMOUNT OF SPICY HEAT, fried food actually crunchy. I really appreciated all of the above. I know the food probably isn't healthy still, but I hate when restaurant food has a puddle of oil. The noodles were a bit stuck together because of the lack of oil. Maybe this is why the squid was so crunchy too? The guy serving us in the front said his mom was cooking in the back. She's like she really cares about her customers and making sure they eat a bit more healthy, and of course, tasty food. Each dish had a good mix of veg and meat. They are NOT stingy on meat or veg. We also got the mapo tofu and it was better than t&t. Again, another thing I liked was how the mapo tofu sauce wasn't loaded with starch. In fact, I don't think there was any (along with any sugar) because the sauce was all watery in texture. Flavour and spice was perfect. Something unique about it was that it had a bunch of green peas. I know some people don't like peas. Lol. Overall, this place is genuinely good which is surprising given the insanely low prices. The staff is really nice and chill. I highly reccomend this place for takeout if you're looking for something low-key at home. Ps. There's no seating inside. This is purely a Chinese takeout joint. They have chairs inside if you're waiting for your food.
