We have been loyal customers for many, many years. The food has always remained the same. Excellent tasting and value. I love their wonton soup, and the sweet and sour pork is pretty darn good aswell. I have never eaten here and had a bad experience. Keep up the great work. And, thank you for all the years of excellent food and service.

Hong Chou Inn was highly recommended to me by several people. I ordered a combo and Wor Wonton soup. This is seriously THE BEST Chinese food that I have had in such a long time. The Wontons were PERFECT!! The broth was amazing!!! The ginger beef, beef and veggies, cashew chicken and chicken fried rice were to die for!! Flavor was on point 10/10 I'll be back, regularly.

Not the prettiest dining room in the city to be sure but the food and the price are hard to beat! Was a little apprehensive with the appearance of the restaurant but the ginger beef was the best I’ve had in a long time

I go here every time I want Chinese I go here because the wonton soup is the best and I always get the Hong Kong chow main the best. Thanks Patti

Food is pretty awesome especially the 14 dollar budget for a decent portion... would definitely return when I'm in Calgary again

Excellent service and the food is wonderful, very large portions. Great value! All of the above still applies, however I was disappointed with the breaded shrimp I ordered last night, the shrimp still had their tails on and I ate one not realizing it and notice while I was chewing. They are breaded so I didn't see it. I just think the tails should have been removed.
