Don's Dining in Grande Prairie

Friendly, but not really a dine in place. Boxes on tables, eat from takeout boxes. Food was ok, but nothing amazing.

Rude behaviour by one of the employee

Poor service nd rude behavior by Chinese guy who wears glasses nd working at reception. Comment by skip driver

Frustrating you cant create a combination dinner of what you like. Instead forced to choose from their choices with no substitutions.

So friendly. Great food

Got sick from eating it sub par Chinese food.

One of the GOLIATHS of GP along withs Wallys and Golden Star. IMO they are all the best in there own ways. Can never go wrong!

Great tasting food

Tried out Dons for the first time. Staff was very friendly Food was great and prepared in a timely fashion. Will be ordering there again Food : 5/5 |

Hot fresh and fast I loved every bite

We called for take out and Hubby did not pronounce chow mein right. She corrected him in a very condescending manner. We could do the same bc of her accent its sometimes hard to understand. But we dont. Because were all humans and English is not our first language. Ours is Dutch and German. So were all not perfect. Last time we ordered there.

order food got sick called always excuices will never from this place again calling health board

Waited 1.5 hours past expected pick-up time. Only to sit and watch Skip the Dishes drivers walk in and out in-front of cash paying customers that had driven to the restaurant to pick up their orders. Clearly not respecting the time of those customers not ordering off that app or threw their on-line ordering system. Another customer complained about having to wait after having ordered an hour before on-line their order came out before customers that had ordered at 2pm that afternoon and had been told a 6pm pick-up time. The order wasnt ready until 7:30pm.

About 80 % batter 20 % meat . Just terrible. They even batter store bought egg rolls.lol . What a joke. There sweet and sour pork is also store bought and fatty . I figured give these guys a chance , never again , especially for the price! . Shame shame .

Not bad, nothing spectacular but they are consistent.

Not the best tasting food but it was eatable.

This place has the best Chinese food in GP!!! it tastes so close to Mah s Chinese food. Don s Chinese is full of flavour the portions are large and the price is fantastic. The staff is friendly and accommodating Try Don s you won t regret it. I know we didn t and it is our new favourite. We have just moved back to town and are very happy to have discovered this little Gem of a place!

The food was good and vegetables were fresh. Delivery was fast. Best Chinese we ve had in GP.

Really great prices for the portion sizes. Plus the food always tastes amazing! Been going here since I was a kid

Great food and hospitality, its an older facility, no coffee, or juices, pop and water only for drinking.

In my opinion, the best and most affordable Chinese food in Grande Prairie. Always a happy with the quality taste, generous portions and value for the money!

Honey garlic ribs are to do die for the chicken balls and lemon chicken are amazing. I enjoy every time even if I order off of skip

Tried Dons tonight, after being disappointed by almost every other Chinese food place in town. We were pleasantly surprised by how good it was. The beef and broccoli was a bit lacking in the beef department but the veggies were very good. Ginger beef was perfect, sweet and sour pork was excellent, and the chicken chow mein was great! Will definitely be ordering from here again.

Brought food, felt like ten minutes after I ordered!! As requested too, so good!!

This is the best Chinese food in town. So and so much food, the price wasnt bad either. They also delivered to Clairmont, and it was still hot.

Best Chinese food in town

Always fast. Always fresh. Priced appropriately. Go.

Best Chinese food in town. Love the wonton soup!

None compare! :-)

Was a skip the dishes order and no complaints

Ginger Beef wonton soup and chicken fried rice was excellent. Amazing taste and service for only$7.98 Best meal in GP

Enjoyed a delicious lunch at Dons Its been awhile since we last ate there. The Buttermilk Shrimp was ummm ummm good. A delicate white semi sweet sauce with lots of shrimp and some vegetables over noodles. Chicken with black bean sauce was delicious, it could have had more chicken and less vegetables, but it was good. Well gladly return.

Got the dry ribs and war wonton soup at 9pm on Tuesday, the soup was slimy and the dry ribs were battered bones there wasnt even enough dried out meat on them to notice with the grizzly pieces and batter, and they tasted like dirty oil. I would not recommend these items for the price and the quality very disappointed.

Dry ribs were nasty made us sick with food poisoning I was throwing up for a hour after I ate it. It used to be a good place to go not anymore.

Completely wasting customers time and patience fulfilling skip orders sending out a half dozen orders in front of cash paying customers that physically drove to the restaurant waiting over 1.5 hrs for 2 combo dishes. 20 year customer lost due to complete lack of respect towards 20 year customers all for few extra bucks on slip the dishes. Don t waste your time with this place, it s filthy and has terrible service.

The guy who took my order and process my payment doesnt value Customer Service at all. What a shame that this business has a lot of good reviews. Food is not too bad but could be better. They also charge $3 for a packet of hot sauce. Very disappointed!

I am so glad this place was recommended to me! Some of the best ginger beef that I have had in a long time! The price was decent for how much food we got too. I will definitely order from here again.

Probably the best Chinese food in town now that Mahs is closed. Like any Chinese restaurant, its overflowing with newspapers, kids toys and take out boxes stacked on the tables. But the food is delicious and their takeout is always ready when they say it will be.

Best food in town

Quiet place to get some great food, love the deep fried shrimp and the deep fried cream cheese wontons

Best chicken chop suey in gp

When I ordered take out it was busy. My food was ready in 20 minutes as promised. Great tasting and good sized portions. I plan to go back in the future.

It was nice and quiet and very cool

I always order from them. me and wifes favorite until yesterday. I placed an order for pick up. and I always like to order extra chilli. since they put so less chilli sauce I demanded for extra chilli like 2-3. and was disappointed to get charge $6 for just a chili sauce. calledto double confirm but seems like nobody care. the lady I spoke to said (sorry its not my problem since I wasnt working yesterday). this is what I get to hear. they should inform the guest before charging for chili sauce.

Man this place has sure gone downhill, make sure your rice doesnt have maggots in it. My brother cant even stomach any Chinese food place after he pulled a maggot out of his rice order. Traumatic.

Service was excellent food also excellent

Awesome food for firsttimer ..I WILL BE BACK

Worst Chinese food ever.

My favourite Chinese food in town! So delicious, everything always seems fresh when we bring it home, and my goodness the spicy ginger beef is to die for.

Great food! Large portions

Most excellent food

The food is good, the only issue is getting them to answer the phone and have them being polite about it.

Still really great chinese food despite the wait time and greasy-spoon interior. Food speaks volumes.

I loved their authenticity of food

Best Chinese food in GP! Very flavourful, always fresh and friendly service everytime we pick up! We absolutely love the ginger beef, chicken chow mein, chicken balls and chicken fried rice!!

Just got our food and dug right in and let me tell ya it s delicious!! I haven t had Chinese food this good in awhile! I am very impressed! The lady on the phone that took my order was amazing too! Thank you Dons dining!

I really enjoy Dons Dining, I have been going there for many years. My favorite dish at Chinese food restaurants is Shanghai Noodles, theirs is quite good.

I have ordered twice from Don s. Combo A is my husband s favorite! Good portion, delicious and authentic food!!! My favorite is Beef Chop Suey and Special Chop Suey. Definitely worth it!!!!!!

Order took over an hour frome the time I placed...was told 45 min...waited an additional 25 minutes at restaurant

Exceptional ginger beef, great value, delicious food

super fast service, and probably the best Chinese Ive eaten in grande prairie, absolutely amazing! and the staff is so incredibly friendly! highly recommend!

Best Chinese food I ve had in GP yet!!

love ordering from dons best place for to get Chinese Food in town

Love the combination dinners!

Very good nice and fresh probably one of the best Chinese restaurants in grande prairie

Food is wonderful

First and last time I try this place . Didnt deserve one star even.

Good is excellent. Wait time on a holiday was super long (1.5 hrs) but absolutely worth it.

Good food, cheerful staff, good service.

Its the best one I ve ever eaten

Loved their food! Especially the wonton soup. Im sad weve moved away and wont order from there anymore.

Customer service was terrible, we were lied to and didnt even end up getting to eat any of the food. (Long story) We phoned to try and clear it up and were hung up on twice. Wouldnt recommend. Of course I cant really comment on the food.

LOVE the chicken chow mein and spicy ginger beef!!

Dons Dining is the best Chinese Food in Grande Prairie. Ive been going there for years and I enjoy it every time.

Wow we order over $100 worth of food and it all came in small bowl size dishes and the containers are only half full IT IS NOT WORTH THE MONEY ...NEVER ORDERING FROM AGAIN

Best Cantonese chow mein in town!

I had the chicken chow mein, chicken balls, dry ribs and chicken fried rice tonight. I have tried Dons Dining, Hong Kong House and Eastside Kitchen. This place had the most flavor, and that smokey flavor in the chow mein Ive been looking for in the chicken fried rice. Still continuing down the list of places but this is my top so far.

Very nice lady served me. Food was great. I understand why my friends go there

Good food, decent prices. Ginger beef has an unexpected but not unwelcome kick to it

Girlfriend and I ordered for the first time, by door dash. Arrived in about 25 mins. Food was hot. Got a combo plate each, both consisted of Deep Fried cream cheese wonton - Good, chicken balls - Good Chicken fried rice - Was more like onions, chicken and rice. - Mediocre Dry ribs- more batter, bone than rib Chicken chow mein- was good but almost dry. Would reccomend for someone looking for a cheaper meal - I dont know if it was an off day for them - just my opinion on it. Girlfriend said it was okay. I may not order again. TL;DR - Good Quantity, Good Price, Quality could use improvement.

Ive had food poisoning twice from here and can no longer stomach the taste of their food.

Great food

One of the best Chinese places in town for sure. Super friendly lady on the phone and till for pick up. Highly recommend when choosing Chinese!

Best Chinese food we have ever had Very friendly staff and good value for our dollar

The food was okay

If u like food poisoning this may be the place for u!!! I was gagging and holding back puking and they still expected me to pay SMH

Perty good

Good food. Good prices. Would not eat in again as took her 30 min to brung us drinks. 1 water and three cans of pop.

Good food, highly recommend for takeout. Atmosphere is lacking for dine in experience, and a little crowded. Staff are very friendly.

I love the food, but the service and place looks like a dump! Clean it up! Even the bathroom is disgusting! The cook came out from the back and his attire was filthy dirty! Tip: dont send the cook up front. Clean up your place!

Great food and service

It was small to start , when we entered there was a kid watching tv out front, but nobody came out to ask anything we found a menu when we called someone out to order they were very unwelcoming , we got pur stuff got home a d found out that not only was it not very good they messed up our order aswell

Fantastic food and amazing people :) highly recommend

Best Chinese food in Grande Prairie. Friendly service.

Our go to restaurant for Chinese food.

We have eaten here in the past, but not for a while. Ordered delivery, came quickly. The food was not what I remember and absolutely terrible. The chicken balls and shrimp were 80% greasy batter, so greasy that there is literal puddles of oil in the bottom of the container. The ribs and ginger beef were dry and deep fried to oblivion, with one rib it was just a deep fried bone covered in batter. The noodles and rice were bland, with hardly any chicken in either. I called to let them know there were issues and the woman was incredibly unhelpful when I told her we couldnt even eat it due to the grease. Said I dont know what you want me to do

Ordered take-out and were very happy. Very accommodating for Gluten Free & MSG Free. And the food was very good especially for the price. Will definitely be ordering from here again.

Don doesnt even own it anymore.

Good food, good portions,

Prices unbeatable

Pros: Fresh food, tastes great, standard western Chinese so you know what you will get, positive waitress, reasonably fast service, comfortable atmosphere. Cons: STANDARD WESTERN CHINESE so its lacking some originality and feels in-authentic. It also seems to be a thing in GP that waitresses DONT BRING YOU THE BILL, one has to pay at the counter, I think GP restaurants can do better.

Every Chinese place in GP has certain dishes that are the best in GP. Dons is the best for: Wonton soup - the meatballs are huge and the broth tastes great Pork Fried rice I cant speak for all their dishes but what Ive had is good.

My wife and I have been a few times in the last 6 months, it was always good. The last time we had the spicy Singapore noodles and dons dining shrimp, both dishes were very good, but together they were both excellent! We would also recommend the ginger beef.

Superb food big portion s

Really tasted Chinese food! I loved fry rice , fry beef with vegetables!

Best chinese food in town, we go there at least twise a weak

Expensive and low quality

I just ate there and I was very unhappy with their food. Their dry ribs barely had any meat, it was mostly fat Their Choy Main was burned, it smelled so bad. They had no juice! She never asked how the food was. Went to bathroom, garbage was stuffed full and it was only 12:30pm. All in all horrible experience. Lost me as a customer.

Love this place

Really good food! Best Shanghai noodles. Good job staff

Good place to eat

Always great food

Good price and awesome taste. Definitely eating here again.

This is the best Chineese food i have ever had. Its not super greasy like most. I highly reccomend it.

Top two Chinese restaurant in town. Egg roll is handmade and huge! S&S pork is crispy and so is the chow mein. Portion sizes are good. Probably my favourite in town. Not greasy and good pricing. For the best taste dine in, otherwise like all food when you take it to go, it softens up and isnt quite the same.

Excellent service perfect pricing and excellent portioning and great taste

Its unfortunate that I had to give them 1 star because what I just ate doesnt deserve any stars. This USED to be the absolute BEST chinese food in all of Alberta. Without Don being in the kitchen, the new owners are now selling dog food. As an unsatisfied customer, I chose to not turn a blind eye and say something to the owners in hopes of a refund. Even a percentage would have been something. Nope... They didnt even want to make things right in any shape or form. Zero Worst food, worst service and the last $$$ I will spend there.

We received excellent service in this restaurant. Overall, the food was tasty and our tummies were satisfied. My kids loved the sweet and sour pork dish and the beef Wonton Soup was the best of all.

Been waitting my food for 1and half hours . The total price $52 + $6 delivery Paid with cash $60 Delivery man asking how much you want the change back ????? Im looking at him like what ???? did he dont know math ?? They said delivery was free if we order $45 . Bad exsperience. The rice is hard and cold . The food that I order coming wrong. Well done . I will never order at this restaurant ever again . Thanks to know . waste my time .

Love this place been coming here for years since I was little best ginger beef in town

I think its the best Chinese food in GP. Love it!

Very authentic Chinese cooking

Great food!

Best won ton soup in grande prairie! special wor won ton soup is even better.

Where to start. The chicken balls were doughy and under cooked. The chicken chop suey was just sprouts and onions ( weak flavor). The ginger chicken was by far the worst, soggy/chewy/stringy. The sauce was poured over the top of it leaving the rest of the chicken un sauced and yet still soggy (terrible batter choice). The chow main was actually good tho so that deserved at least one star.

Small western Chinese restaurant. Best Chinese in Grande Prairie!

Our first time trying out their food. The noodles were burnt. The meat was fatty. The rice had a weird bland taste to it. Everything so incredibly salty. The portions were large enough and the ginger beef was pretty good. Overall, the worst Chinese food in Grande Prairie.

BEST FOOD IN GRANDE PRAIRIE..... I RECOMMEND EVERYONE TO TRY CANTONESE CHOW MEIN LOADED WITH MEAT AND VEGGIES AND CRISPY EGG NOODLE UNDER ... THE BEST SWEET AND SOUR PORK IN TOWN

I had dinner with my friends last week, I would say the food and service are great, Sweet&sour pork and ginger beef are extremely good here. I found that this Chinese restaurants price are lower that other places but it offers the same quality food. Great place and you do not want to miss.

Best Chinese food in town for sure.

My husband and me had a dinner at this Chinese restaurant, it was really good services the waitres gave us excellent customer services. We enjoyed the meal, we had real Chinese food in this restaurant. It is one of the best restaurant in Grande Prairie. We love it.

Everytime we ate there the food tasted burnt. The food was salty and lacking flavor. Low end dining we wont go back.

I have had multiple positive experiences, the food is good and a few items are exceptional. Normally have my food delivered in 30 minutes.

Its not authentic Chinese cuisine, but thats expected in Grande Prairie. At best, its like home-cooked Chinese food, which isnt restaurant quality.
