Canton City Restaurant — Restaurant in Vernal

I was craving orange chicken. Real orange chicken. I took a chance here at Canton City and...kapow! Or should I say Kung Pao!! Simply the best Chinese meal I've had in my life hiding right here in Vernal. I started with the egg drop soup -- perfection in a little bowl. Next, the pot stickers appetizer. Sadly I inhaled and enjoyed these so fast I failed to take a photo. In my defense I skipped breakfast and was too busy for lunch, so I was starving. These are fresh made, and the dipping sauce was, well, after my first bite I expected Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker to explode onto the scene! Authentically, amazingly, divinely delicious. Next I ordered the orange chicken dinner! This was accompanied by fresh chicken chow mein with all kinds of vegetables, a fresh egg roll, a breaded shrimp, and fresh ham fried rice. A celebration of flavors. In. Every. Single. Bite. No seriously. I must add on a huge kudos to the proprietors for be willing to serve iced tea... With Chinese tea! Why is this so difficult? I don't know, but this too is a thing I always ask for and never find. And here it is, the perfect exclamation point to a superb meal. So if you find yourself craving Chinese, get your pot stickers in here. Now! You won't be...

We ordered from the dinner special menu and had an appetizer of potstickers. The potstickers were absolutely delicious with a savory dipping sauce. They were perfectly fried! The entree comes with soup. I had egg drop and my boyfriend had the sweet and sour. Both were good, but my egg drop was a little too thick. So I did not read very well, the dinner special also comes with a heaping serving of lo mein and ham fried rice, as well as a small spring roll. So much food! I had shrimp and vegetables and the boyfriend had orange chicken. Mine was incredibly bland. There was zero flavor to the white sauce. Both the lo mein and the fried rice had no flavor either. The orange chicken was delightful. I feel bad because I can tell the ingredients were fresh and the textures were on point… just no flavor. Like some garlic, five spice, or even some msg to enhance would be great. I wish I could remember our server, he was a young gentleman and he was fantastic!

So like, eat here… the food is middling at best, but not terrible by any rate. Just put some...

The worst Chinese food I've ever tried to eat. My wife had the sweet and sour chicken and I had the po po platter so we could both share. The shrimp was so hard I couldn't eat it, plus it was awful. The crab rangoons were hard and chewy, not crisp and tasty. Meat skewers had good taste if you like beef jerky. What was supposed to be egg rolls were actually spring rolls that tasted freezer burned with nothing but cabbage inside. The chicken wings were small and overcooked. Everything was store bought crap that they couldn't even cook correctly. My wife's orang chicken was hard, and mostly breading. The rice with ham was tasteless. Our server asked twice how was everything. I told him "terrible ", and he just walked away. Also, I asked for duck sauce to try to help the taste, and he said they don't have duck sauce. Will never,...
