This is really good Chinese food. We got the braised eggplant, beef with fresh vegetables and chicken, shitake mushrooms & snow peas. They said we had to wait awhile but the food came fairly fast. Excellent service. I will definitely come again.

We stopped in to try Canton Canton, and at first glance, the restaurant looked very clean and had a fun, interesting menu. We went in as a party of five around 5:00 p.m. and noticed there were only two other people dining inside. However, we...Read More

I like classic American Chinese dishes, with fresh snappy vegetables and crispy fried food. When I just want well made comfort food Canton is my place.

Just ordered dinner for my family for first time. Will definitely be back. Food was all fresh & tasty! And it wasn’t oily like another Petaluma Chinese restaurant that used to be a favorite of ours. The lemon chicken & orange chicken are both breaded...Read More

Best Chinese in town. Family owned. Owner cooks, wife serves. House Special garlic eggplant is delicious. I'm a long time customer and note many other regulars- a sign of good food.

Best Szechuan chicken, hot and sour soup, and pork fried rice. This is my typical order (which i have tried at 4 other Chinese food restaurants in the past year) and my boyfriend and I agree that all 3 items are superior at Canton. We...Read More

It was okay. The chef definitely has more refined Chinese cooking style than most around town. The menu is rather limited, however and overall the dishes we ordered were good. I googled dim sum and they advertised dimsum, but I didn't see...Read More

10/27/2023, @ 1:30PM, sister and I visit at Canton, ordered orange chicken and fried rice for my sister and Mongolian beef and fried rice lunch specials which came with wonton soup for myself and it was "EXCELLENT" taste and food quality which we haven't had this good Chinese food in long time. Most of all, we enjoyed today's lunch so much and everything were above par. Rate for today's visit; Average Rate 4-Stars Food Quality ----------5 Stars Food Tastes-----------5 Stars (Excellent) Service-------------------5 Stars (waitress) Ambience---------------3 Stars Parking-------------------5 Stars (located in shopping center, plenty of parking plus one disabled parking space front of a restaurant). Restroom---------------1-star (hallway is too dark, couldn't find mens room). 11/28/2023 @ 12:30PM, since last visit we've eaten at Canton every other week but taste have declined. One before last, ordered sweet and sour pork and had no vinegar flavor in sweet and sour pork. ??? Today's order Mongolian beef and tasted way too sweet (tasted like dumped half a cup of sugar while cooking ?) could not believe the taste ??? Even fried rice tasted different from other days. Did they have someone else preparing a cooking instead of owner/chef ??? So for now it's 2-out, so try one more visit and see !!! Rate for today's visit; Average Rate 2-Stars Food Quality ---------- 3-Stars Food Taste ------------ 1-Star Service ------------------ 5-Stars Recommendations, hit-and-miss. 12/21/2023 @ 1:00PM, sister and I visited for for lunch hoping owner/chef would be cooking but I can tell just by looking it was prepared by trainee cook. Order Mongolian beef (over cooked in lower temperature) with fried rice (soggy) and wonton soup (soup broth is not hot enough). Especially Mongolian beef should taste spicy not sweet (due to cooking in low temperature). Hope owner/chef would do the cooking and hire a new apprentice cook. Rate for today's visit; Food Quality ------------2-Stars Food Taste --------------1-Star Service---------------------3-Stars Recommendations, hit-and-miss.

All of the food was great except for the Mongolian beef which surprised me. It tasted burnt, like they cooked the beef in a pan that had charred food in it which completely took away from all of the dish’s good flavor. Bummed but will...Read More

Fantastic fresh and tasty food. Not bland or watered down like some places. Very friendly people. I love the Mixed Vegetable Chow Mein with Hong Style noodles (they are crispy)!
