Canton Restaurant, Scotts Valley — Restaurant in Scotts Valley

My friend and I recently had an amazing experience ordering from Canton of Scotts Valley. We are vegetarians and whenever we order food we request that there be no oyster sauce or eggs in our food and what we usually get is something watery and bland, unfortunately. On Monday we tried Canton restaurant and wow, was it was a surprise! They were friendly and happy to accomodate our dietary request. I ordered the Mongolian tofu and my friend ordered the mixed vegetables in garlic sauce ...and the sauces were so rich and flavorful We were so amazed and raved about the meal as we ate! You see, I was raised in New York where Chinese food is so delectable. I have tried so many restaurants in California and none come even close to the flavors that I reminisce. I thought it was because I have been requesting no oyster sauce. However, Canton restaurant can make food flavorful without that ingredient and I am thrilled beyond belief. I actually went back the next day and ordered the same Mongolian tofu because I had no leftovers and I already missed that flavor! This is now going to be our go-to place for yummy food. Now i know why everyone raves...

Excellent food. We were very impressed. All the vegetables were very fresh and abundant. The Wor Wonton soup was full of nice large chunks of nice vegetables (not overcooked) and meat and wontons, of course. The soup was served in two containers, one for the broth and the other for the meat/wontons/veggies/ but I see that they did this to keep the veggies other stuff from getting over-cooked in the broth during the journey home. They were all absolutely delicious when we got home (the sliced carrots not turned to mush).

The Cantonese Fried rice was full of stuff as well, and not just the usual frozen peas and carrot mix sprinkled into the fried rice. There was tons of fresh egg and pork and chicken, all shredded and not just the usual small cubed chunks. Usually when we get fried rice, there's more rice than other things; that's not the case here. We live in SLV and haven't eaten Chinese food in a long time because we haven't been impressed with the fresh veggies on anything local. We are happy to stumble across this gem of Scott's Valley. Thank you! We will definitely be...

I never write reviews, so you gotta know this is special! I was searching for Chinese food near me and this restaurant was on the list. I am VERY picky about my Chinese food, so I decided to look at some of the reviews. I saw that people wrote about the food being great, which is what I was looking for. But some were saying that the service was not so great and I didn’t find that to be the case at all! The young person at the counter was very attentive and polite, and made recommendations of their favorites when asked. They were super sweet actually! And the food indeed was amazing. I absolutely recommend this little hole in the wall! The orange chicken was tender and delicious. And the pork fried rice is the best I’ve had in a very long time. The one and only suggestion that I would make is to add more gravy to the egg foo young. I will most...
