24 Best Chinese Restaurants near Canton

“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.“

“Went to PF Chang’s this evening to celebrate our daughter’s birthday, I must say the food was excellent and our waiter Angel was the most experienced waiter I have had in some quite time. Thank you for an enjoyable and memorable evening.“

“I travel 30 minutes to Tan Wong because it’s the best Chinese food. The staff are so friendly and the prices reflect the quality of the food while still being affordable. I went in today to pick up an order with my newborn and the staff went beyond what they needed and carried my food out to the car for me!

I’ve also dined in her before and the atmosphere is very serene and staff were very diligent.“

“Great food and excellent service“

“We are lucky enough to live only 10 mins away but if we did not I would be driving here anyways. The best Chinese food in the area for sure, why others gave low scores I have no idea. Owners are always so pleasant when we come for take out, and it is super fast. If you have not tried them you should.“

“Friday night,and the place is busy. General Tso's was really spicy but tasty, Beef with Broccoli nice and tender, egg drop&wonton soup was good, egg rolls crispy and fresh. Shrimp toast was tasty but a bit overdone. We've been coming here for over 20 years and it's consistently good. Don't forget their house made mustard!“

“During my vacation, I had the pleasure of enjoying some great East Coast Chinese food. The spare ribs were thick yet delicious, and my sister opted for the General Tso’s chicken, which she really liked. Personally, I preferred the ribs. We also shared some egg rolls that were delightful. Overall, it was a satisfying dining experience.“

“Excellent. Never disappoints ❤️“

“Ask anyone in Bristol whether in person or on various social media pages, they’ll say Sun Fat Chinese is one of the best in the area. By the looks of it, at any given day..it’s always busy, so it’s by far the most popular Chinese restaurant in the area…I won’t say the best.
Quick Note - Pretty much all the Chinese restaurants in this area all charge the same and the meals are the same..look at the menu, select food, pay and wait for it. The ones up here also give you a choice of egg roll or soup to go with your lunch order..that’s not just here, but ALL of the restaurants here in the Bristol/Plainville area.
Food - I’ve been here on a couple of times and have tried various items from the pepper steak to the chicken and broccoli to the sesame chicken. It’s all your standard Chinese food restaurant..I don’t see where it is that far ahead of all the rest. Sesame Chicken was good…but not fantastic. You get a heaping portion of it but a ton of rice as well. The egg roll is sometimes soft, other times hard enough to go through a brick wall.
Parking - It’s in the strip mall next to Subway in the MarketEdge/Price Chopper on Farmington Ave/Route 6/72.
I’m giving it 4* total for a couple reasons…first being, no..I didn’t do a phone order..I never do on anything, it’s always as a walk-in. Got there at 2:55, went to order the lunch and was told “it ends at 3.”…I know, it’s not 3pm yet..I’m not one to argue so I said it is whatever and just give me the regular portion then…so because of that and the egg roll being rock hard, I’d give it on a 1-5…3.8-4.1“

“My son and I are new to the area and we have tried several other Asian restaurants in the area and we were extremely disappointed with all of them! Until we found The Asian Bistro. From the person who took my order to the quality of the food they are ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!!!! I have never been more satisfied with a take out restaurant and I would highly recommend them to anyone!!! This has to be the #1 place for Asian food from their appetizers to their Ramen dishes they are amazing and if you haven’t tried them you absolutely should!!!“

“I’ve been looking for a decent Chinese delivery place in Bristol for a while and took a chance here today, and I’m glad I did! By far some of the best Chinese food Ive had in a very long time! Literally from the first bite I knew I was coming here to review. It reminds me of my family’s old favorite spot by the same name in West Hartford and brought back some nostalgia. Will be ordering from here again and again.“

“The Bristol area is fortunate to have this very inexpensive Chinese restaurant! The Lee Po family has worked ceaselessly for decades and continues serving the community through the pandemic providing a variety of dishes made with fresh ingredients. Good food and reasonable prices to feed a family !“

“I actually ordered there by accident. I meant to go to the Tasties in West Hartford. After driving an extra 15 minutes to get there and an extra 15 minutes to get home, I was pleasantly surprised by the look of the food, the taste of the food, and how it was packaged. I will return. I will drive the extra 15 minutes. The food was great. The portions were big I got general Taos, chicken, boneless ribs, and pork fried rice. It was all very good..“

“The sushi is great! We have had the food a number of times as take out, this was the first time eating in the restaurant. The food was very good and the presentation was beautiful.“
