The worst Chinese food in town. I ordered the Mongolian beef, and it was 90% onions. I've had Mongolian beef many times before, but this was a major letdown. Other dishes, like the chicken chow mein, were also undercooked. Definitely won't be going back.
Had Canton tonight and wow! It was absolutely fantastic! Huge portions, steaming hot, fresh and so tasty! Best Chinese food I had in a long time!

Canton Restaurant offers a mix of Chinese dishes with varying degrees of quality. The food is fresh, delicious, and served piping hot, with generous portions that many find satisfying. Customers have described it as a hidden gem in St. John’s and the best Chinese restaurant in the city, with some saying it’s their favorite place around. The service is often praised, with friendly and attentive staff. However, the restaurant's interior could use an update, and take-out remains a popular option, offering good food and value. Although the dining room has been closed, it may reopen soon, and diners should be prepared for a possible wait when dining in. The quality of the food and service is exceptionally excellent, making it well worth the visit. Some combo dishes are better priced here than at most other places in the city, and the food is always very fresh and tasty. Many customers recommend upgrading to the noodles for an even better experience.
