Restaurants in Canton

“I was having my car serviced at Davidson and walked across the street and had the most AMAZING BLT on a Himalayan Salt Bagel!!! The people were so friendly and patient!!”

“Little Oak Cafe is a fantastic spot with delicious food, excellent service, and a friendly staff. The clean, cozy atmosphere is enhanced by unique decorations, making dining in a pleasant experience. They also offer convenient takeout service, and the coffee is both great and reasonably priced. It's quickly become a favorite, and it's sure to be yours too!”

“Dirk & Co prepared an outstanding menu for my wife’s birthday party- we had 18 people and everyone commented how great the food and tastes were- a few said they were not fans of Thai cuisine before they tried the Green Papayas food… and even they came away big fans! Big home run in every regard! Thanks, we’ll be back”

“I ordered the BAHAMA MAMA SHRIMP TACOS and I couldn’t believe how good they were. Great food, great staff and the owner was excellent on communicating about the wait for our table. I would definitely go out of my way and go back to this restaurant.”

“it was my first time and I thoroughly enjoyed breakfast!”

“Amazing food highly recommend!!”

“Skyler is fantastic!!! Everytime I come in he gives me OUTSTANDING service!! He literally is the reason I keep eating French Fries!!!! You have a treasure in Skyler!!”

“We recently moved to Connecticut about 3 months ago and have tried over a handful of different pizza restaurants but none of them comes close to this one. My husband loves their wings and their pizzas never ever disappoint.”

“Great outdoor patio ! Excellent food! Shrimp cocktail was fresh , great cocktail sauce .”

“‼️Really delicious food, I'd call it excellent! If you enjoy sushi, this is the place to go. Sometimes on the weekends the parking lot is packed full, so if you enjoy their food, it may be better to simply call ahead. However, there are a few inaccuracies on their this Facebook website. First their current hours are posted as "always open", of couse this cannot be true in the least bit. Listed on the Mizu 21 Restaurant website as of August 16, 2025 it says: Address: 21 Albany Turnpike (Rt.44) Canton, CT 06019 Tel: 860-352-8533 Business Hours Mon: 11:30 am~9:30 pm Tue: 11:30 am~9:30 pm Wed: 11:30 am~9:30 pm Thurs: 11:30 am~9:30 pm Fri: 1:30 am~10:30 pm Sat: 11:30 am~10:30 pm Sun: 11:30 am~9:30 pm”

“It's a must visit. Even if you think that you don't like moonshine. Why not try. It's a deep family owned and operated business. They've been there since the start and still going. Very nice people. And willing to take you around and show you the property. Also has great atmosphere.”

“Very reasonable price on the food, will definitely return!”

“Absolutely love this place!! Haven’t been in years but had the pleasure of treating my boyfriend to lunch today! He loved it!! Mackenzie was amazing and the whole experience was lovely!!”

“The places you find!! We had a few mintues to kill after a 5k and were hungry. We checked out The Bagel Deli. It was awesome. The strawberry cream cheese had giant peices of strawberries. We also ordered the Cardiac breakfast sandwich, it was fantastic. Both the dudes working were cool as well. If you are near Canton CT this little place is worth your time”

“Had the scrimp po boy and it was delicious.”

“I went into Giv for the first time this morning to pick up some whole bean coffee, have an Americano, and experience a proper cafe/roaster for the first time. The staff were incredibly friendly and really seemed to be enjoying the work that they were doing, which made the whole atmosphere super welcoming. I ordered an Americano which was incredible, and looking around definitely gave me confidence that the other drinks were equally good. They have a good selection of whole coffee beans and I really appreciated that they had some pour over gear from Hario (Switch and V60 kits, plus filters). Being able to pick those up locally and support a local business rather than Amazon is a huge plus. 10/10, I hope to become a regular there.”

“We had Ben and Jerry's Catering CT come as a surprise for my niece's graduation party and it was a massive hit! Our server was wonderful! The ice cream was delicious and the toppings were perfect and plentiful. We've had ice cream trucks in the past and this blew them out of the water! I highly recommend! 5 stars!”

“We love Bahres and Vicki!!! The only liquor store that my husband and I go to anymore because of quality customer service, good selection and it’s so close! ❤️”

“Tried the taco flavored at Ledyard's festival yesterday. Absolutely loved it and great size portion. Looking forward for a chance to try the other flavors!”

“Incredible and authentic food. Servers and owner are welcoming and truly amazing people!”

“We felt the food and atmosphere were great, definitely a bit more of a fancy place than we normally go to. A bit pricey but the food was very good. My only issue and the biggest reason we most likely will not be going back is they do not have or offer a kids menu and were not very accommodating to kids. I understand it’s fancier place to eat but I was very unprepared when I had my son with me not knowing they did not have a kids menu. He ended up eating French fries for dinner and I had to go home to make him something else.”

“Very good food, vibe and service!”

“November 2024 - Looking for a new Chinese place, we chose the Chinatown Restaurant in Canton. Checking out the online menu, some details were left out about some of the items, so I called before a family member picked up our takeout.

Very helpful, it sounded like the Chef himself as he was busy cooking, he told me they only had one dumpling, not a choice of vegetable or pork. They put both together. He also said the House Lo Mein consisted of shrimp, chicken and pork.

Our takeaways were as follows:
The egg roll and shrimp roll had the same crispy wrapping and were both good. The spring rolls were not to our family member's liking as they had what all of the Chinese places around us currently have which is a paste of some kind in the center. I will have to try these myself to see what they mean.

The wonton soup was very good. The right temperature, wonton dough not too dense, filling was pure and the broth was flavorful.
Their dumplings were also cooked expertly, but one family member found the combination unsatisfying as there wasn't either enough meat or vegetables to their liking. The rest of us enjoyed them, though I realize if you're a vegetarian you cannot get dumplings here as in other restaurants where they make both.

Mains: The winner was General Tso's chicken. I never order it, but so many people do and it always seems like a winner overall. The serving was plentiful, the chicken was tender with a soft coating and a little broccoli on the side, which is common with this dish.

The beef and broccoli also had tender meat, a good sauce and was a good portion size. The only negative was the broccoli stalks were too long and undercooked. A large container of well cooked white rice came to share with this meal and the Tso's chicken.

The House Lo Mein did not look anything to me like what I would get in California, but even after so many years back home in CT, I'm still adjusting to these differences. What looked like a container of brown noodles with a little bit of addons, I asked, is this mine? Yes, was the response as everyone was happy to run off with theirs. Fortunately, it tasted better than it looked presentation wise. Still, I could only have two servings before giving the other half away for someone else's lunch the next day.

Our favorite thing we all agreed they did the best with this order, was their House Fried Rice with an added egg. Perfectly made with shrimp, chicken, pork, the egg and some fresh peas.

Plenty of fortune cookies were included in the bag, along with chopsticks and a variety of sauces. They do have indoor seating. Maybe six tables? The owners are very polite and accommodating. Open six days a week basically 11Am - 10Pm. Closed Mondays and most holidays. Plenty of parking as they are within a small shopping plaza.”

“We came here on a warm spring day after lunch nearby. The store was very cute and clean. It was a little confusing at first on where to enter to order; there were two aisles leading to the counter. There were a few tables inside and outside. The service provided by the employee was friendly and quick.

I had the churro ice cream on a waffle cone; omg, that was so good and tasted like cinnamon toast crunch cereal in milk (as the employee had described). My toddler had the marshmallow sky ice cream, which had marshmallow and chocolate chip cookie dough; he loved it of course. The prices were steep but it was worth it. We ate our ice creams outside on their patio. I really enjoyed my visit and will be back on another cheat day!”

“I went to this location tonight, before heading to Sundown and I was impressed. Im used to the Hartford Dunkins where they mess up your order and decide to give you what they think you should have vs what you request and pay for. My tea was made perfectly how, I wanted it. I will be back when I go back to sundown. The lady at the window was nice too! Thanks Dunkin on Albany Tnpk :) the little things in life that make and dont break good moments are meant to be shared and rejoiced.”
