About Canaan Cafe

Canaan Cafe offers a variety of tasty dishes, including the flavorful beef noodle soup with generous beef chunks and perfectly cooked noodles. The green onion pancakes and veggie fried rice are also popular choices, with many customers praising the onion pancakes and garlic string beans as fantastic. The restaurant is a Taiwanese/Chinese fusion spot, which works surprisingly well. While the stinky tofu may not be for everyone, as some find its smell and taste overwhelming, the Canaan special pork chops are decent, and the salt n pepper pork chops are recommended. Customers have enjoyed dishes like spicy wontons, fish fillet, filet mignon cubes, and the dim sum, which are all praised for their flavor and quality. The staff is very nice and attentive, always ready to assist with any questions. The place is clean yet small, so getting there early on weekends is advised to avoid a wait. Canaan Cafe also offers amazing lunch combos that include a main, rice, and a drink starting at $15. The location is in a small strip mall that does not face the main road, so it’s important to keep an eye out for the sign. There is a parking lot right in front, but it is somewhat limited. The cafe has a loyal base of regulars and consistently delivers good food, with a new location expected to open in the peninsula center in Palos Verdes by the end of 2025.
