Canton Kitchen (Dadeland) — Restaurant in South Miami

When I was younger my family would eat at the Canton in Coral Gables often. Now that I'm older I pick up Chinese from this location for my family often. I have tried many Chinese restaurants from New York to Miami and always end up comparing to Canton whether I want to or not. I get the feeling they know Chinese food is easy and restaurants are abundant so they make sure they have consistently good flavor and ingredients. I usually take out. I have eaten inside a few times and what I can say is that the inside is quaint and quiet but I've never known the service to be bad. Many locals will swing by and eat outside.

The small details in the food is what keeps me coming back. i.e. the slices of red cooked pork in the wonton soup, the generous portions in their dishes, down to the size of the rice grain in their fried rice. You won't be blown away by Canton thats just not what it is. It isn't a dim sum spot or a fancy gourmet but it is a place you can eat at all the time and be satisfied and that to me is what...

Very disappointed with the Harry and the staff. I been going there for more than 20 years. I was working late, look at the internet for the hours it close on Thursday and it said closes @ 12 A.M. it was 10:30 pm. I got there @ 10:40 pm and they had a paper sign saying they close at 11:00 pm I just wanted a special fried rice and wonton soup to go. As I got out of the car they were putting the outside table in, one of the staff ran inside and lock the door and told me they are close. It was 10:44 pm. I said ok went next door to pine crest bakery and order. Went I came out the door was open and there was a customer that order online picking his food. I went in and saw Harry telling customer that it was going to take a while cause they were making his soup. I told Harry what I wanted and he said next time. So I walk out. I think they could have done that simple order within minutes. While cooking for the other customer. I see they don’t value the customers. So for that reason they lost an...

I ordered the jumbo ham fried rice and the honey chicken the total of my bill was $35 and some change! When I got home to eat the CHICKEN WAS HARD AND AWFUL until my kids or husband wouldn't eat it! I called the next day of course because they were closed when I got home this little lady took me through the 3rd degree about CHICKEN like I'm trying to pull a fast one on her for $17.25 all I wanted was more chicken but after she told me I should've brought it back and asking what time did I eat it! And no this the shocker she told me when I come to get the chicken I need to eat it in front of her like I'm a CHILD GETTING SCOLDED! So when I gets to the restaurant with my receipt she's puts my money on the counter like I'm a nobody! And before I walked out I told her o I'm gonna write a review her excact words were YEA YEA OK! This WOMAN IS RUDE AND VERY DISRESPECTFUL! Never again will I eat in this...
