We love Spicy Hut, we heard that the owners are retiring, we visited again for one more time before they close.

Food was great, potion was large as always. Their menu is huge, there are so many items to choose from, I cannot believe they cook everything in the kitchen!

I want to say thank you to the owners and wish you the best for your retirement!

I don’t know why it’s taken me two decades to write a review for this place! This is bar none the best Chinese food you can find in Calgary. Simply cannot be beat in terms of flavours and quality. Definitely is a hole in the wall, so don’t expect anything fancy when you get in. The service is friendly and fast, but the real highlight is the food. My wife and I have been dining here At least once every couple months for the past 18 years. Not once have we been anything but extremely satisfied. The food comes out ridiculously quickly (honestly sometimes within 5 to 10 minutes) and is always fresh (No heat lamp buffet in this place). Our favourite dishes are a crispy chow mein hot plate, and crispy chicken.

This is absolutely our favourite restaurant and I can’t recommend it enough. Give it a try and you won’t be disappointed!

One of those cozy family-run establishments that are hard to come by these days, Spicy Hut doesn't look like it has much to offer upon first glance but that's how you know the food's going to be good.

The reviews weren't kidding when they said this place makes the best dumplings ever because I seriously could not get enough of them, especially with that chilli oil on the side. Also enjoyed their pad thai, veg fried rice and beef mussuman curry although it's definitely not spicy the way they advertised it.

To top it off, I was surprised to see the OG fortune cookies they gave us which tasted just as good as I remember from my childhood (petition to have all restaurants start selling them again pls thank you).

Overall, the bill came to $70 which felt expensive at first but after seeing the amount of quantity we received, I realized one dish is made to share between at least two people so it was worth it considering the amount of leftovers. Will definitely be back for more dumplings!

What happened?? I've been going to this place for over 20 years and it's always been amazing with great value. I was super disappointed that my favorite dish masamun beef was awful in my order. The beef used to be velveted and incredibly tender. My order had beef so tough that you could barely put your fork in it. The potatoes in the dish were also quite large and tough but not as tough as the beef.

However, the crispy chicken was still quite good but default spice level that we got would probably overwhelm someone who doesn't deal with heat well.

Since I've been going back to this restaurant for so long, I'd probably give it another shot but I'm so disappointed my favorite dish is a fraction of the quality it used to be.

Their flavours are unique and positively addictive! If you like Chinese or Thai food, you owe it to yourself to eat here. Generous portions, always fresh and top quality ingredients -- you won't believe the size or number of the prawns in your meal :). Oh, and I almost forgot to mention the hands-down best Hot and Sour Soup in Calgary -- probably anywhere.

Friendly folks, family-run hidden gem. Once you eat here, you'll find it hard to go anywhere else. We've been driving across town, as often as possible, for many years now -- absolutely nothing compares to the food and service at Spicy Hut.

This is a great chinese thai food restaurant,
Thai stuffed wings was the best & recommended, sweet & sour pork bit sour but still ok, quick fried sliced duck with green onions very tasty with thin sliced with wok style, grilled pork dumpling the inside meat smell really good and delicious but the skin was too thick, maybe bit thinner will be perfect.
Service was fast and also they have parking at the side of the restaurant.
Pad thai also recommends.
Reasonable price recommend for family.

The food here is delicious! I would have to say it's some of the best Chinese food I have ever experienced. The atmosphere is nice, clean, and all in all great! I would highly recommend to go here!

We got a flyer in our mail so thought we would try it out. I had heard good things. The red curry here is awesome. We had it with the coconut rice. Despite the “spicy” in the name, you can get everything without spice.

I like that they have free delivery within 3km and you get free things if you order over a certain amount. We ordered over $40 and got some really yummy chicken fried rice.

Here is the flyer with the promos.
