Calgary doesn't have the best Chinese food offerings but this one is pretty decent relative to the competition available. it's a super busy restaurant so make reservations for dinner and prepare to wait a bit for dim sum.
They are known for their xiao long bao Shanghai pork dumplings where there's soup inside along with the pork. The key to this dish is a really savoury and flavourful soup and a melt in your mouth pork filling inside. The soup was good and the dumpling skin was pretty good but the pork ball was more stiff then I expected. Stilll good but not great.
We ordered the ginger beef dish only because the restaurant is named after that dish! It was too sweet for my tastes but then again I don't normally order ginger beef for that reason. The lemon chicken was disappointing - lemon sauce was too sweet and the batter chicken had no flavour.
For this place, stick with the more Cantonese style dishes - their seafood is exceptional. The halibut and a seafood medley dish with gai lan was really good. The peking duck was on par with most places I've dined at.
Place is packed with patrons, service is prompt and restaurant is clean.
