Dagu Rice Noodle Calgary

Having moved to Calgary from China, I am always looking for spots with authentic food and this place did not disappoint! Came in for some hot noodles and tea on a -25°C day out and was the perfect meal for warming up.I had the noodles with fresh shrimps, tossed cucumber in garlic sauce and deep-fried pumpkin pancake with red bean paste. The service was great and they bring the food out super quickly, with the soup in a hot bowl that you pour the noodles into yourself! My only complaint was that the soup was a little bland, but I asked for a spicy sauce and they came with one that made the soup taste more like 酸辣湯 (Chinese hot and sour soup), which was great! Would definitely go back to try more off the menu.

Visited here during the stampede. Excellent service and amazing food. I had no experience how to order but the waiter was very friendly and patient. Love the noodle as well. I wish I have places like this back home (Tennessee)

Didn't like my soup. Ingredients were very random, despite ordering a beef soup there was seafood and pepperoni slices in it... was not expecting this. Pepperoni overwhelmed the broth flavour and not in a good way. The staff was very nice though and it was a nice clean establishment, I just didn't like my food.

Tried this new place out and i thought it was pretty decent. Unfortunately it just takes awhile to get your food and hence the 3 stars (came before11:30 and food did not arrive until 12:30).Tried the signature rice soup with braised bone pork & the sour/spicy rice noodle soup with pulled pork. Both are good dishes.Interesting experience. You get a hot pot (comes boiling) and you put the noodles + ingredients into the bowl.

What a pleasant experience! I went with 3 other friends, and we all enjoyed the meal.We ordered 2 appetizers and 2 rice noodles. Everything was delicious.Lively environment with great music taste.The only limitation was no washroom, so it was inconvenient.

I was craving a bowl of steaming, soupy noodles on a chilly Friday evening. Having passed by this place multiple times before, I decided to finally give it a try. To my surprise, the restaurant was completely empty. The noodle pricing was reasonable, especially the fact it comes with one free re-fill of noodles.I wanted something spicy so I opted for the Mala pork slice noodles. They had 3 different spice levels and I decided to be daring and choose the “spiciest” level. Sadly, it wasn’t very spicy at all (there was barely any numbing feeling from the mala flavour and the broth was quite bland). The noodles were chewy and well-cooked though!I also ordered a side dish of beef slice/tripe with chilli sauce. It was part of their “recommended dish,” which I did enjoy.Service was prompt but it wasn’t great. It was my first time there and it would’ve been a better experience if they were a bit more welcoming. The server came by once at the end of my dining for a water refill and asked if I wanted refill of noodles. They never came by once to ask how the food was. Both servers were on their phones the entire time.Overall, very mediocre experience. Likely will not be returning.

Got the braised beef and pork in bone noodle. I thought this place was like taiwanese noodles but it was more like a combination of the individual hotpot bowls and korean pork bone soup.It was difficult to eat with all the meat stuck on the bone. The taste was alright but not amazing. I know they offer free noodle refills though which is nice. Some of the other menu items looked interesting so I would want to try those next time.We also got the chicken wings which was very good and is the reason why Im giving a four star instead of three.The atmosphere was not too bad. Kind of felt more like a fast food restaurant from the feel of it.Update: I came back again and tried their original pork rice noodle and liked it a lot more than the pork bone soup I had before. They give you all the ingredients to add into the bowl yourself so it is kind of fun.

It's okay, the place is very clean and the tables are very small , better suited for a lunch crowd. You get your basic soup selection with your choice of add-ons, which is a bit high at 3 dollars extra. They serve their soups in those same Korean stone bowls that come out really hot (children beware) , and the noodles on the side . The menu was a bit hard to navigate, so we just went with the recommended". I do agree with the other reviews
