Restaurant Salón Cantón — Restaurant in Bogota, Capital District

Simplemente increíble. / Simply incredible. English at the bottom.

Perdón, no tome fotos, estaba demasiado ocupado comiendo.

Fui con amigos y pedimos el plato de degustación, todo estaba absolutamente delicioso.

Pollo Szechuan: delicioso, suave y jugoso. El sabor a Szechuan era notorio, el picante bajo entonces para personas que no comen mucho picante.

Lomo estilo Mongol: tan suave que casi se derretía en la boca. De sabor suave con prominencia a hoisin.

Chuletas con Sal y Pimienta: absolutamente deliciosas y suaves. Más picantes que el pollo estilo Szechuan.

Langostinos en Salsa Blanca: una explosión de sabor y crocancia. Me comería 100.

Arroz Cantones: delicioso, de sabor intenso pero no abrumador. Perfecto para acompañar los demás sabores del plato de degustación.

También pedimos un Chop Suey de Carne que también estaba delicioso. Los vegetales crocantes y la carne suave.

10/10 volveré muchas veces más.

simply incredible.

sorry, I took no pictures, I was too busy eating.

I went with friends and we ordered the tasting plate, everything was absolutely delicious.

szechuan chicken - delicious, soft and juicy. The Szechuan flavor was noticeable, the spiciness low then for people who don't eat much spiciness.

Mongolian style tenderloin: so soft it almost melted in your mouth. Mild flavor with prominence of hoisin.

Salt and Pepper Chops - absolutely delicious and soft. Spicier than Szechuan style chicken.

Prawns in White Sauce: an explosion of flavor and crispness. I would eat 100.

Cantonese rice: delicious, with an intense flavor but not overwhelming. Perfect to accompany the other flavors of the tasting plate.

We also ordered a Beef Chop Suey which was also delicious. Crispy vegetables and soft meat.

10/10 I will be back...

I chose this restaurant with good google reviews and ordered the shrimp fried rice via Rappi.

The taste was very average and the quantity was very much like other Chinese restaurants, but the amount of shrimp was very small compared to other restaurants. Overall, I don't think the food was worth the price.

And I usually don't write reviews, but what made me write this time is the taste of MSG that remains in my mouth long after eating, I know that MSG is an essential part of Chinese food, but it is...

Not good food. Not authentic at all. Not even authentic for international Chinese food. The shrimp were ok but sweet with a thick white sauce covering. The rice noodles were ok but seasoned differently than I would expect Cantonese food to be seasoned. The outside of the empanadas were typically colombian, a thick dough heavily fried and greasy. The mapo Tofu was a soup and mostly meat with small tofu cubes in a salty beef broth. It wasn't what i...
