Sweet Mango is a generic Asian food restaurant that serves a huge variety of Vietnamese and Thai food.  I've been here a couple of times and am yet to be disappointed.  I wouldn't go out and say that their Vietnamese or their Thai food is extremely…More »

Vietnamese subs are so delicious and Nhon Hoa is one such beacon of hope on Whyte Ave that serves up a variety of subs, along with soups and side orders.

What I like best about Nhon Hoa is the extremely local aspect of it.  It's like a small little…More »

Well - simply put... it's got great food at great prices.  The food is extremely fresh, from what I've experienced.  I've been to several expensive sushi places and can make out very little difference between those places and Furusato.  

I love the…More »

Although I'm not a big dim sum guy, I do appreciate the preparation and execution involved with dim sum.  Cha For Tea palace has the strangest name (why are they telling us that tea is called cha in Chinese?), but they serve up a full variety of dim…More »

A chinese restaurant that has a lot of chinese patrons has to be good!  And yes it was.  Golden Rice Bowl is a pretty big dim sum restaurant with ample seating capacity and a several kinds of dim sums, as expected.  From what I could tell, it seems…More »

The sublime taste of truly fresh salmon sashimi dipped in soy sauce and wasabi is a great experience that I yearn for on a daily basis.  At kyoto, I can say this once more .. the sashimi is decent.  It's certainly not the best I've had .. but it's so…More »

Padmanadi is such a nice vegetarian restaurant!  I thoroughly enjoyed the food here.  The focus of the menu is very Asian with food from China, Thailand, Indonesia and perhaps others, giving it a sort of eclectic feel to Asian cuisine.  The…More »

Been here a few times and thought I should write a review.   I like several things about Steel Wheels.  For starters, when you enter this place, you think you're in a shack-like restaurant in an Asian country!  Weird, random graffiti, really bad…More »

Kabuki is a recently opened sushi place near the Garneau Theatre.  It's proximity to the UofA campus makes it an ideal destination for people to come here for a lunch or dinner-after-theatre type experience.

Although I like the ambience and the menu,…More »

Are you the one who always ruins sushi lovers' company by saying you don't like/eat sushi?  Well ... Maki Maki seems to be the right solution!  They serve a lot of sushi here but also have a surprisingly long list of Vietnamese and Japanese entreés…More »

Buddy's is an old school family-style Chinese restaurant.  Yummy food, possibly authentic - maybe not, but delicious, nonetheless.  They have a huge variety of options and are very affordable with massive serving sizes.

Three of us went here the…More »

I find Tokyo Noodle to be sort of average.  Their sushi is okay, almost like sushi that you'd pick up in a take out place or from Superstore or something.  

They have a small but decent list of Noodle options but as noted by others, it's nothing out…More »
