    Beef Fried Rice

    I hate to give up this little gem of a restaurant. But i think the food here is excellent. I highly recommend it. I can't pinpoint any one thing about it. But the quality and taste is there.

    Debris in and around takeout container seems like this was in storage and just got it without cleaning it.

    I don't know about yall and maybe i should give these guys the benefit of the doubt but i doubt these boxes are supposed to look this dirty. Please look before dining out at this place, unless all boxes look like this which i doubt it.

    The food is super great tasting, great flavor and perfect texture. The servers are very helpful and friendly. The place is a little bit run down but still nice.

    fried shrimp

    We came at 830 pm Busy as always; nothing new. Got seated and served drinks quickly. Was told food was going to take awhile to cook. Dad got his food first which was delicious and I got mine 15 minutes after which was fine. Dad ordered the wrong combo but he very much enjoyed the gravy and that Pattie The only thing that does bother me is the amount of tables that are dirty and stay dirty . It just makes the environment feel like unsanitary

    Spicy Fish (Serrano chiles) with soft noodles and fried rice.

    Canton's is always a great place to visit at lunchtime. Have been visiting Canton's for years. My favorite dishes are the Spicy Fish and the Spicy Pork Chop. The service is always excellent and such a great relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommend.

    My Wife and I ate at the Canton Restaurant at 419 East Main Street in Visalia, California today, December 14, 2024 and our waiter was Gary Zheng. My wife had the Egg Foo Young and I had the Mandarin Chicken which came with Pork Fried Rice and Egg Flower Soup. The service was great, as Mr. Zheng was very helpful and accommodating. I would highly recommend this restaurant for anyone who enjoys Chinese cuisine.

    Mongolian Beef Lunch Special
    Albert M.

    This place is like a 1980's time capsule. Qingdao Beer calendar on the wall? Check. Table older than your grandpa? Check. Paper placemats with Chinese zodiac? Check. The Chinese name of the restaurant is way more interesting, 羊城, the City of Rams. Around 900BC, the city of Canton had a famine. The gods gifted the people 5 good luck rams that brought 3000 years of prosperity to Canton. Ok, enough history lessons. The waiters are fast and emotionless, which is typical of old school Cantonese restaurants. I turned on my charm and the waitress finally smiled . I ordered the first thing on their lunch special, Mongolian Beef . It is one of the most famous and least authentic Chinese dish. Like magic, the egg drop soup appeared instantly on the table. Who need small talk when your waitress has super power speed. Very nice soup for a cold winter day. Then the main dish came so fast I barely swallowed my last bit of soup. Why do people love old school Chinese restaurants? It is the value. The dish is huge, a full serving of fried rice, a full serving of chow mein, and a generous portion of beef. Honestly in any other restaurant it can be sold as 3 separate dishes. The beef was sweet, tangy, with mild spice (Cantonese people are lightweight when it comes to spicy food), with delightful white onions, carrots. Shameful, guilty pleaser for sure. The fried rice even have bits of bbq pork in it. When the bill came, it is $13 tax included. I ate until I burst and I only finish half of the food. If you want a quick, hearty, delicious Chinese fix, this is the place for you!

    The food was very reminiscent and comforting of Chinese American food in many other mom and pop restaurants. The service was prompt and attentive.

    #2 combo & Shrimp With Honey Walnut
    Adriana L.

    Food was very delicious! I was extremely impressed with the speed of getting everything out to our table. We went in for the honey walnut shrimp and was definitely impressed. We also got a #2 combo. Definitely Recommend! The place would definitely benefits from some TLC.

    Chinese Kitchen - Fried Shrimp and Pot Stickers

    On a recent trip to Visalia, we got the craving for Chinese food and after searching Yelp we…read morediscovered Chinese Kitchen was one of our best local options. The target customer demographic in this area isn't generally Asian, so we tempered our expectations before dining here. We were impressed by the extensive menu offerings and after some deliberation, we settled on the Dinner for Two which started with a Won Ton Soup and fried shrimp and pot stickers as appetizers. The entree included sizzling rice wor bar, Peking pork and pork fried rice (we substituted for pork chow mein). The restaurant was very traditional in closing the meal out with fortune cookies. Our favorite due to its flavor was the Peking pork, and we also enjoyed the fried shrimp, pot stickers and sizzling rice wor bar. The only misses were the Won Ton Soup (we felt the flavor of the broth was not quite right) and the pork chow mein (it arrived lukewarm and lacking in flavor but it was an improvement after dousing it in chili sauce). Chinese Kitchen doesn't appear to be located in the best neighborhood, but it is easy to tell that this establishment has been around for quite some time. The best part of our dining experience was the service. Our greeter and server welcomed us, took our order and checked in on us multiple times. We also had the opportunity to chat with the owner and she is very welcoming and helpful. If you're in Visalia and have a craving for Chinese cuisine, Chinese Kitchen is as good an option as any!

    The Chinese Kitchen is a favorite of ours. The food is fresh and tasty. The service is excellent!…read more The owner Kit always welcoming with a smile. She makes you feel like family

But my friends who recommended it they've came but only for the drinks on the Lum Lums side. Hong Kong is the the food side apparently. So I ordered the Shrimp Fu Yung. I got stir fried shrimp with veggies over a clump of breaded onion. The shrimp was over cooked veggies were fine. The breaded onion seemed like it might have been reheated from a previous unused dish. If it wasn't for the gravy it wouldn't have rehydrated. Wasn't this an Egg Foo Yung dish, instead it was a clump of breaded onions. That's how bad it was. This place was busy but don't know why. The other people I was with ordered lemon chicken, orange chicken, fried rice, fried plain wontons, sweet and sour chicken. They all seem to enjoy it. They received a lot of food. But a lot was taken home as leftovers. My friends are also non-Asian and not a big foodie like me. So take that however you want. It's sad when businesses close but to make a highly traditional dish like egg foo yung terrible, that is a sign.
