Each year, we ask our readers to weigh in on the best restaurants in Calgary with an online voting ballot. Here are the winners and runners-up for Best Restaurants in Calgary’s N.E. Suburbs

The Nepali dumplings come in vegetarian, mutton, paneer or chicken options and are a must-try dish here. The menu also features dishes like leg of lamb, Himalayan butter chicken and traditional Nepali thali.
