  • "A nice restaurant with good staff, the menu is extensive."

  • "I booked my reservation about weeks ahead I guess. But on the exact day, i decided to call the restaurant to move it 30 mins later and added more people as our plans that day changed. We got into the place 30 mins late of my booked time, so when I approached the waitress she said she already gave away our seats. So i was disappointed.Because of that my guests had ti wait 30mins to ger seated. I understand that it was busy that night, but I believe I deserved being informed atleast or asked before they gave the seats away.. But overall, my friends who I invited for my birthday was happy with the food. Thanks!"

  • "I was impressed with the food and how each plate had their own flavors. So unlike many Chinese restaurants, where it seems the cooks tend to use the same spices regardless of what the dish is. We had the highly recommended pork belly but I found that although the flavor of the sauce was great, the actual pork was just deep fried bacon and scant. The silver noodles, stir fried vegetables and the 3 flavor ribs were fantastic, as was the daily soup we ordered which was a curry soup. Flavors are wonderful and very individual per dish. It was a pretty busy night, so service was slow, so it wouldn't be fair to comment. They held their own. I would very much recommend this restaurant and I definitely will be going back again."

  • "Firstly, I didn't think the restaurant would be in a strip mall so we were a little over-dressed for date-night. There were only two mediocre choices of wine, so we chose none. Our satay app was very dry and hard, overcooked, but the sauce was flavourful. Our shrimp dish was delicious though. Our meat dish was also tender and flavourful, but there was gristle in every bite, so it needed dissecting before you put it in your mouth. I found that tedious after a couple of mouthfuls. Overall, the meal was OK but I wouldn't go back."

  • "6 of us returned to East Restaurant for our monthly supper. We were there about 2 years ago and both times, the food was outstanding. The Butter Oat Chicken and Silver Noodles were absolutely divine."

  • "All the dishes we tried were super tasty and were every interesting (especially the 3 flavor ribs!). Highly recommended if you want to add some variety to your asian food selection"

  • "Love the decor of East and the food is sooo good. Love the different flavour profile of their Chinese food and the high quality of ingredients. We need to go back often to try different dishes as some are so good that we want to order them every time."

  • "The butter shrimp was the best dish we ordered. Also the ribs 3 ways was very tender and flavorful. Really recommend these dishes. Have to go back to try more of the other goodies."

  • "It's about time we had a restaurant in north Edmonton that cares about quality. We have more than enough chain restaurants and casual eateries to choose from, and until now, the Chinese food scene was mediocre. I was really impressed with the food at East. Even the simple dishes that are on every Chinese menu, such as the wonton soup, were executed well."

  • "Advertised as Asian Fusion, but nothing fusion about it. Ordered: Indian Roti (doughy), Seared Beef (the worst dish: tough beef, no flavor, beef is not seasoned - just topped with some sweet bean sauce), Beef Rendang (OK if you call it curry beef, but definitely not traditional Rendang which is usually "dry" in that the sauce is all absorbed into the beef though long cooking), Fried Crispy Sweet & Sour Pork Belly (second worst dish - too sweet sauce on pieces of unknown deep fried stuff - might as well be just fried dough because I could not taste any pork), and Hokkian Noodle (OK dish, nothing special). Service is quite good, but that does not make up for the food. Will not go back."

  • "We met friends for a casual dinner and to meet their new 7-week old baby girl. This was the perfect venue. Between the amazing food (we couldn't stop tasting it even after filling up) and the staff's willingness to help us with the baby (change table, privacy for breast-feeding, and helping up warm up her formula when she was still hungry) we were amazed. New parents, able to relax in a restaurant for a couple hours and actually eat without bothering anyone? Miracle! We will definitely be coming back, baby or not :)"

  • "We met here for a girlfriend lunch and everyone enjoyed themselves. The staff were patient and very accommodating. The food was great. They make a fantastic ginger tea - definitely not from a tea bag. Yum."

  • "Food was very good. An interesting twist on Asian flavors. A bit noisy, but it was a Saturday night... Would return to try more menu items! Many others looked good......."

  • "I may have gotten the wrong menu choices but I didn't like this experience. The appetizer spring rolls were good but the battered pork belly was too sweet. It was like eating bacon cookies. The pumpkin and condensed milk was okay but not too appetizing."
