“I love Canton Restaurant. The food is delicious and the service is great!👍“

“The food is super delicious!“

“They are the best Chinese restaurant in town. Very friendly staff and amazing cook. We had some rockfish freshly caught and they did an amazing job preparing them to 3 different delicious meals including tofu fish soup, spicy fish filet in chili oil, and steamed fish. The price is very seasonable. The cook even came out to us to communicate the flavor preferences which made us feel welcomed and valued. Overall 10 star experience we recommend any fishermen to take their catch here and be surprised how good they can taste!“

“Staff was welcoming food was good especially the sesame seed chicken 😋😋 chicken wings a little over cooked but still good“

“Went to this place by chance. Love the food, generous portions. Had the family meal #3. Very reasonable prices. The only downside was the service. It was slow. Took too long to take our order. Had to ask for our water glasses to be refilled. Despite the service, will go back“

“Great food for a very reasonable price. I had the compound chicken and it was delicious.“

“My friend and I got the cream cheese wontons, Mongolian beef, and General Tso's chicken. Everything was cooked perfectly and the flavor was delightful. Usually with deep fried chicken at Chinese restaurants, it's hit or miss, but I think they did an excellent job. I would recommend this place.“

“We decided to venture out from our usual noodle spot to Chloe's Kitchen and weren't disappointed! The Spicy Beef Noodle Soup was delicious, with a flavorful, savory broth and tender shank meat. Would prefer a bit spicier though, or some Szechuan peppercorn. We also tried the vegetable dumplings in chili oil, which were also very tasty! Only downside is the price is pretty steep ($18 noodles, $13 dumplings) compared to noodle and dumpling places in SF ($13-$15 noodles, $7-$10 dumplings). Kind of takes the fun out of dumplings when they are so pricey.“

“I don't really care for the e-ordering and payment platform they utilize. If you're more traditional, cash paying customer this place is not for you. It will not work.
However, I must admit, service was very fast. Your order and it's at your table in 3 to 4 minutes. Furthermore, every dish was delicious. Every single one.
This location has changed ownership two or three times in the last 10 years. This is by far the best one yet, and it shows with the lines outside the door for tables.“

“Had one item from the lunch special, General Tao's Tofu, which I highly recommend. The other dish was Snow Peas, Broccoli and Blsck Mushrooms (one of my favorites) which was nicely cooked (not over cooked) but could have benefitted from a little tastier sauce. However we mixed the two dishes together and loved it. Portions are generous and easily shared by two or three! Service was outstanding. We sat on the patio and we're handed menus within moments. Order was taken within minutes of arrival and the young lady who took our order was great about helping us "veganize" a vegetarian dish. Food was delivered piping hot in less than 10 minutes. I'd have no problem returning for lunch. The patio area means well-behaved and leashed dogs may accompany their humans. I do wish they had more vegan items available (like Daiya, Gardein etc.). Nevertheless, the lunch special is a bargain.“

“Came in because I was craving phô.. I have to say I was disappointed with the flavor of it so I would not order that particular plate again.. however, their spork spring rolls are really good. I just wish their peanut sauce was a bit thicker... the salt & pepper wings def were the hit of the night. I would go back and order more wings if my stomach could handle it, lol... overall, I had a good experience there, and the staff was friendly.“

“Absolutely the best noodles and soup I've had and probably best restaurant period. Everyone in my friend group adored it. Everything from the soup, to the chow mein to the curry and the wings was delicious. My bubble tea was great also. If you're in town you gotta stop by at Betty “
