Silver Inn Restaurant

I am a big ginger beef fan and I always wonder what it was like from the original place. It was already on my places to go for this reason 🤣 It was fairly quiet tonight and I would not have had to make reservations, but I wasn't going to chance🤷‍♀️, I looked up some Google reviews and the menu beforehand so we knew exactly what to order: Ginger beef(of course), fried pork dumplings, beef with broccoli and chicken fried rice. And the fried pork dumplings definitely stole the show as they were our number one pick, so much flavor with some soy and chilli oil..so good, ginger beef was the most tender I have tried and very good, also the beef with broccoli was also so delicious, beef was tender and the broccoli cooked just right. The chicken fried rice was just there as filler🤣 and they have decent sized portions as well. I would definitely suggest checking them out while you can😁..also have to say the service was impeccable 👌 my water glass never went below half and always filled with ice cold water👏

Finally got around to trying the home of ginger beef. Was not disappointed at all. I would have to say they have the best batter - deep fried Chinese food that i have tried so far. I will firstly admit that there spicy squid is now my favorite beating out my old go to (golden moon) the squid was fried in a crisp fresh tasting batter and seasoned just right. The ginger beef was fried just right with a tangy yet mildly spicy sauce drizzled over it, very good. Also worth mentioning there take on Wor wonton. Using a beef broth really changes things, it was quite good, decent won tons too. I will for sure be going back in the future

Awesome place! The ginger beef was perfect! The service was great and the food was even better! Very sad that they are closing.

A Calgary landmark! Home of Ginger Beef but also so many other great things to eat. My kids loved the sizzling rice and the toffeed fruit for dessert.

Had a very nice birthday dinner here. Interior is a little dated and tvs are a distraction. Food was hot and great. They really do have excellent ginger beef.

The Silver Inn is our favourite Chinese restaurant in all of Calgary. This is where ginger beef was invented, and it is still #1. Service is always great, food comes out fast and is delicious and large portions. Pricier than your typical Chinese fare, but you get what you pay for.

The food amazing. This is the home of Calgary's famous ginger beef. Needless to say you must get this here. On top of all that the staff is great. This will be a regular stop for me whenever I am in Calgary.

Very fast, attentive, and friendly service. They never let my water glass level get below two thirds haha! Plus, they make AMAZING Wonton soup and dumplings. Thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere and food, and will definitely visit again!
