Canton Low Restaurant — Restaurant in El Segundo

First time here.we had their lunch specials. Comes with a choice of an excellent Egg Drop soup or an equally excellent Hot and Sour soup. The special also comes with a fresh Egg Roll and Wonton and a deceptively good dressed lettuce salad. You also get a choice of Fried or Steamed Rice.

Obviously with the ratings this place has gotten. I won't b...

Price is reasonable, service is prompt and servers are actually nice and attentive. Problem is the food is just not that great. Been here 3 times for lunch and always ordered the lunch specials. Nothing wrong with the portions, but the food is just greasy. The stir fried meat's flour coating (standard Chinese cooking technique) is just too thick, so you often get really mushy meat. For the fried meats like sweet and sour or Orange chicken, I feel the coating is often either drenched in the sauce for too long or under fried...again soggy coating instead of a...
