Canton Restaurant, Scotts Valley

EAT HERE! this place is clean, the staff is SO friendly, the prices are great, the portions are huge AND the food is incredible. The best Chinese food anywhere near Santa cruz. Ive never had a bad bite here. I promise you will not regret it! What are you still doing reading this review? Get over to canton!

This is American style Chinese on the less bold side. The food was fresh and portions were good.

Good quality food, good taste.

Dinner was delicious and the food was toooo! The hot and sour soup was delicious, as well as the potstickers. We had 3 different meals that were largely portioned and flavorful and cooked perfectly!

Best food ever! I can order it spicier and it will be perfect. Beautifully decorated and always very clean. Happy place with smiling customers. Perfect cook on their chicken.

Love the cream cheese won tons here, always quick service and delicious food. I highly recommend!

The food was ok and the portions were large. There was only one soup for the appetizer and no one at our table liked it.

A completely mediocre restaurant both atmosphere and food with just the right portion size but the server was kind. A little pricey as well for lunch specials. Don't think I will be going to any Canton restaurant.

Excellent food. We were very impressed. All the vegetables were very fresh and abundant. The Wor Wonton soup was full of nice large chunks of nice vegetables (not overcooked) and meat and wontons, of course. The soup was served in two containers, one for the broth and the other for the meat/wontons/veggies/ but I see that they did this to keep the veggies other stuff from getting over-cooked in the broth during the journey home. They were all absolutely delicious when we got home (the sliced carrots not turned to mush).

The Cantonese Fried rice was full of stuff as well, and not just the usual frozen peas and carrot mix sprinkled into the fried rice. There was tons of fresh egg and pork and chicken, all shredded and not just the usual small cubed chunks. Usually when we get fried rice, there's more rice than other things; that's not the case here. We live in SLV and haven't eaten Chinese food in a long time because we haven't been impressed with the fresh veggies on anything local. We are happy to stumble across this gem of Scott's Valley. Thank you! We will definitely be coming by again!

Got takeout here since my regular place is closed on Sundays. The food was tasty enough, but the dishes’ preparation was not what I expected.

The wonton soup was served in two containers- one just broth, the other all the solid components. Generous portion but odd to me. The Mongolian beef had no green onions and the beef wasn’t crispy, the addition of mushrooms and zucchini didn’t help. The eggplant dish was too soupy. The potstickers were good and well prepared.

I’m unlikely to return unless I just have to have Chinese on a Sunday.

Chicken salad. 2nd time ordered. Both times NO crispy noodles, NO wontons, NO peanuts, NO sesame seeds like it's described on the menu. They were not ashamed to sell it to me anyway knowing that I would not notice until I opened the box that it was nothing but lettuce and chicken with slivers of carrots. Pitiful.

I never write reviews, so you gotta know this is special! I was searching for Chinese food near me and this restaurant was on the list. I am VERY picky about my Chinese food, so I decided to look at some of the reviews. I saw that people wrote about the food being great, which is what I was looking for. But some were saying that the service was not so great and I didn’t find that to be the case at all! The young person at the counter was very attentive and polite, and made recommendations of their favorites when asked. They were super sweet actually! And the food indeed was amazing. I absolutely recommend this little hole in the wall! The orange chicken was tender and delicious. And the pork fried rice is the best I’ve had in a very long time. The one and only suggestion that I would make is to add more gravy to the egg foo young. I will most definitely be back!

Cute little restaurant, great food! Perfect option if travelling with non-veg friends or family - there is something for everyone! If getting the dinner combo, you can sub out the soup (contains egg) for a sesame ball if you mention that you are vegan?friendly staff

Don't pay in cash! I paid in cash, rather than by credit card, and the lady stole $16. I calculated it by subtracting the total, tax, and 20% tip from the $100 bill, and the returned money was short.
