    (4/26/25 Update): I came here with my family who had a party room reserved for a birthday party. The room was nicely decorated and had a private bathrrom. There was big screen tv and karaoke setup. That was about it for the positives. Most of us showed up around 6:30pm on a Saturday night. The parking lot was pretty empty in front of Canton House. I looked over into the parking lot of Gohan Buffet and it was super packed vs Canton. We got the Family Dinner ($600) which feeds up to 10 people. We got 2 of them because we had around 20 people. The dinner comes with 10 dishes. 1. FISH MAW CRAB MEAT SEAFOOD SOUP 2. HONG KONG STYLE TWIN LIVE LOBSTERS 3. FOUR SEASONS APPETIZER PLATTER 4. WALNUT SHRIMP WITH FRESH FRUIT 5. STEAK CUBES & ASPARAGUS STIR FRY 6. LIVE DUNGENESS CRAB STIR FRY IN TAMARIND 7. PEKING DUCK WITH LOTUS BUNS (2 WAYS) 8. PAN FRIED CHILEAN SEA BASS WITH SOY 9. SNOW PEA LEAVES IN GOGI BERRY STOCK 10. GOLD & SILVER SEAFOOD FRIED RICE We had the crab soup first which had 0 flavor and I didn't even taste or see any crab inside. It was not good. The Hong Kong Style Lobster was a small portion and I barely got to eat any. 4 seasons appetizer was okay but just mainly fried stuff. Steak cubes were super small and I only had one. The walnut shrimp dish tasted like the honey shrimp from the low budget Chinese buffets. Dungeness crab was nicely decorated but didn't taste good. Peking duck wasn't bad but the portion was too small. It didn't help people in my party was grabbing big portions and being selfish. The sea bass was very good and I loved the crunchy ness to it. The snow peas dish was not very desirable as I had no clue what was inside. The fried rice was garbage as I tasted better fried rice from Panda Express. It had tiny shrimp bits like from low budget shrimp pieces from Krogers. Let's get to the table service part. One of the females had a real nasty attitude and didn't seem like they were too happy to be here. We finished eating and ate our cake. We wanted to have alittle fun with the karaoke but apparently the staff members kept coming in to "check" on us every 5 minutes. They weren't there to check on us as it felt like they were trying to rush us out so they can clean up. One employee even had the nerve to say, isn't it getting dark out? I was highly insulted by this. Affer spending approximately over $1700 at Canton House, I expected alittle more nicer hospitality. And from looking at their regular dining area, which maybe had only 4-5 tables with customers seat. They can use our business as the food here sucks. Affer the 5th time of employees coming to "check" on us, we all got tired and decided to leave. I do not recommend this place as the food and customer service just stinks here. I will definitely not giving them any of my hard earned money on the future. The dim sum as I remembered wasn't the best but I gave them a chance and still gave them a decent review. The value for the food is horrible. But I didn't hold anything back this time as they have been opened for a very long time.

    I had so much high expectations for Canton House. We went here for dinner. They also offered dimsum at all hours but it takes bit longer to make. We ordered family style dinner including steamed sea bass, peking duck 2 courses, wonton soup, salt egg yolk shrimp, salted egg yolk spare ribs, yeah we love salted egg yolk stuff haha, and snow pea with crabmeats, panfried noodles, and stir fry steak in red wine sauce. Everything was salty except the steamed sea bass and the duck. I have no idea what the chef was smoking. But everything was so salty we basically have to get extra white rice to go with everything.

    It's pretty busy, and I'm not sure if it's because of the holiday season or if they get this much business normally for their dim sum. It's a big space that fits many people, so it's good for families. They even have private rooms if that's preferable for bigger groups. We were a group of 7, and someone had arrived earlier to start our wait for a table. By the time we were seated, we were asked and served tea pretty quickly and could start ordering food. For the most part, we did get food from the carts and only ordered a beef chow fun, which was pretty good though heavy on the onion for some. The dim sum was ok. Steamed items like ha gao and siu mai were as expected. It would be strange, and bad, if they messed up on either of them. The lo mai fan (sticky rice) and beef tripe were pretty good as well. The chicken feet was bright red and alright in flavor. It was a little sweet, and I would've liked a stronger black bean taste and some spice. From there, the rest of their dim sum offerings that we got weren't great. All their fried items were cold. Makes sense because the carts make their rounds, but we weren't pleased with other items being cold like lo bak go (turnip cake). If you want to try dim sum, it's not a bad experience to have it here, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. I may get same or better if I tried somewhere else. It was very interesting to see bubble tea being pushed in the carts though. Not worth getting a drink you can't specify to your liking.

    **November 3, 2024** I dined at Canton House Restaurant and Event Hall, which is fairly new and under the same ownership as the original Canton House on Buford Highway. Located in Duluth, it offers ample parking. The restaurant is spacious, featuring modern decor that's both stylish and inviting. I was seated quickly since I arrived right when they opened, but the food carts started coming out slowly. We ordered a variety of traditional dishes: shrimp shu mai, shrimp dumplings, chicken feet, shrimp rice rolls, and shrimp paste rolls with crab claw. The shrimp shu mai had a tender wrapper but lacked the flavor punch I expected. The shrimp dumplings were delicate, with good flavor. The chicken feet were cooked well and taste good. The shrimp rice rolls were soft and slightly chewy, but again, they didn't quite reach the level of the original location. Finally, the shrimp paste rolls in crab claw were kinda soft rather than crispy. Overall, the food was just okay. The service was good, and I must say, the restaurant itself is stunning and very clean.

    Canton House hosted our group holiday party. Beautiful banquet hall and restaurant with high tech audio visual equipment to make any party extra special. Best of all, Peter snd Kam were so attentive and caring to make sure we had a great experience! Service was on point. Peter helped create a varied menu for our group that everyone seemed to enjoy very much. The food looked great and was good, but overall not as good as their Buford Hwy location. Still very enjoyable, especially the seafood soup, honey walnut Shrimp, and fried sole with ginger scallion.

    Short version: Canton House serves good dim sum in Duluth. It's worth visiting. I'd be happy to come back here. That said, I think the dim sum at Royal China is better, but your experience could be different. Long version: This review is for Canton House's second location on Pleasant Hill Road in Duluth, "Canton House Restaurant & Event Hall." It opened in May 2024. Canton House's original location is on Buford Highway in Chamblee. The business started in 1994. It's family owned and operated. For those unfamiliar, Canton House has been a staple for dim sum and Chinese (Cantonese) food in metro Atlanta for decades. The Buford Highway location has been popular among the local Asian community and beyond for a long time. Canton House is known not only for its food, but also as a wedding/event venue. I went to a wedding reception at Canton House Chamblee in 2014. It was really cramped. Canton House Duluth is completely different. It's a lot bigger and much nicer. They won't have that problem here. Canton House joined Happy Valley and Royal China as Chinese and dim sum restaurants from the Buford Highway area to: (1) open in and/or relocate to Gwinnett County and (2) expand into bigger spaces designed for handling large events. Canton House Duluth is a lot like Royal China in both its large size and grandiose appearance. Think fancy, shiny hotel ballrooms with high ceilings, ornate chandeliers, banquet-style seating (lots of round tables with Lazy Susans), formally-dressed servers, and elegant style and decor. This location has a totally different look and feel than Chamblee, which is more like a traditional Chinese restaurant. During our visit, dim sum prices were as follows: Small plates: $4.75 each Medium plates: $5.75 each Large plates: $6.00, $8.00, or $9.00 each We showed up around 1:30pm on a Sunday and all the push carts were still out. I've observed peak dim sum hours in metro Atlanta to be around 11:00am to 1:00pm on weekends. We stayed until about 3:00pm. By that time, some of the carts had disappeared. However, many items could still be requested. We were seated immediately upon arrival. There was no wait like I'd seen in pictures online. In fact, the huge dining room was over half empty. The atmosphere would've been better if it was busier. We were swarmed with carts and served right away. Good service. Below is a list of what five of us got. Numbers in parenthesis indicate number of pieces per plate. Numbers preceded by an 'x' indicate number of plates. * Congee with century egg, green onion, and youtiao (deep-fried wheat flour dough) x5 - served into bowls and finished tableside * Egg tarts (2) * Steamed barbecue pork buns (cha siu bao) (2) * Baked barbecue pork buns (2) * Baked egg custard buns (2) * Mango stuffed mochi (3) * Coconut stuffed mochi (3) * Beef tripe (reticulum, omasum) * Beef tripe "soup" - served tableside into a bowl with all sorts of beef offal * Shrimp dumplings (har gow) (4) * Chicken dumplings (shumai) (4) * Pork and shrimp dumplings (shumai) (4) * Lotus leaf rice * Steamed pork spare ribs with douchi (fermented and salted black soybeans) x2 * Beef short ribs * Pork pot stickers (dumplings) (3) * Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce * Turnip cake (3) - pudding made with mix of shredded white radish, dried shrimp, Chinese sausage and mushroom; steamed, sliced, and pan-fried * Taro dumplings (2) - deep-fried dumplings with mashed taro, diced mushrooms, shrimp, and pork * Steamed rice noodle rolls with beef (3) - they also had shrimp * Non-spicy chicken feet * Spicy chicken feet * Egg white and milk pudding x2 Overall, we found the dim sum to be sufficiently fresh and tasty. The only item we wouldn't get again is the mango stuffed mochi. While the consistency of the mochi was good, the flavor wasn't appetizing. I think the filling was mango puree. On the other hand, the coconut mochi, filled with coconut cream, was quite yummy. Everyone enjoyed the congee. My favorite items were the egg tarts, steamed and baked barbecue pork buns, beef tripe (not the "soup," but the smaller version), pork spare ribs, beef short ribs, and steamed rice noodle rolls with beef. I also liked the egg white and milk pudding. My wife's favorites were the pork pot stickers, turnip cake, and taro dumplings. The beef tripe "soup" was unique and not bad. It was filled with so many different organs that not even the staff could tell me what everything was. The lotus leaf rice and chicken feet, generally two of my favorite dim sum items, were just OK. The lotus leaf rice was too dense and sticky (perhaps it sat out too long) and the chicken feet were a bit on the chewy side. I didn't see douhua -- soft tofu served with sweet ginger syrup. Side note: This shopping center, Pleasant Hill Square, has changed a lot. Gone are big-box stores Staples, JCPenney, Old Navy, Toys"R"Us, and Barnes & Noble. In are Canton House, Kang's Kitchen, Gohan AYCE Buffet, The Juicy Crab, and Yuki Asian Fusion.

    I dined at Canton House on Sunday, November 3, 2024 shortly after they opened. I was impressed by the overall aesthetics and size of the restaurant upon walking through the grandiose lobby area. Everything looked so clean and shiny. There was the large main dining area where I was seated, but there were also smaller private dining rooms available for private events if anyone is looking for a place to host any event (parties, wedding receptions, anniversaries, etc). The lighting however is all white LEDs, which made the restaurant feel like a hospital or school. The dim sum was pretty good. The carts did take a while to come out because I was seated within a couple minutes after opening. But all the staple dim sum dishes that I expected did come out. As far as taste and overall presentation goes, I think they were better than the first location. I would expect the food quality to be better because of how new this restaurant is. The shrimp dumplings and fried shrimp balls were my favorites and tasted fresh and well-seasoned. Everything from the steam cart tasted good. I think the service was nice, but could be more attentive. It took a while for waters to get refilled and to get the check and pay. However, I did appreciate how the hostess spread everyone out across the large dining space so it didn't feel like we were all in one space. Overall, this is such a big improvement to the first Canton House in terms of dim sum quality and dining experience. But in comparison to Royal China, I think Canton House is slightly inferior in terms of the ambience and dim sum options.

    Ah yes! Dim sum and then some. For Georgia, this isn't a bad spot for dim sum and it's all day! The food was actually pretty delicious. We ordered tons dim sum dishes none of them disappointed. Only thing I'd say is the sesame balls were a bit too hard or crunchy but it still tasted delicious nonetheless. If I'm in town again, This is one spot I'd try again. Service was really good! They tended to us despite how busy they were.This place is great for small or large parties. At the time we went there was a wedding going on. It was still a good time. Till then, let's eat!

    I came by with my family on a Monday afternoon having low expectations and not expecting cart service thinking we'd have to order by menu because like I said... it was a Monday afternoon. However, we were excited to see upon walking in that they did still have carts going around with dim sum! We were immediately seated at a table with plenty of space for our family. A high chair was promptly set up for my son, and when one of the employees saw me struggling to figure out the straps, he came over and assisted me in addition to giving me a child's plate and utensils without me even having to request it. He also asked if I'd like a child's water cup, which I declined because we already brought a sippy cup. This is not the service I'm typically used to getting dining out with a small toddler. As soon as we sat down, carts were immediately brought to our table, and we had food instantly. Honestly, it was so fast that the food was already on the table while I was figuring out the high chair. They were so attentive to the pace we were eating that every time we were low or out, carts would appear again. They gave us menus as well without us having to ask in case we wanted to order anything extra. I'm guessing because it was a Monday afternoon, what was on the carts was limited. I've never been to this new location before, but my husband had gone with friends the day prior (Sunday brunch- the true time to go for dim sum), and he told me they did have more options then. This was no surprise to me, and I have no complaints though because it's what I expected coming on a Monday afternoon. Whenever there wasn't something on the cart, I'd ask by showing a picture, and they'd tell me they would get it for me. They would cook several and add it to the carts, and before putting those dishes on the cart, they brought it to us personally first and asked how many we'd like of each. I was very impressed with the service and attentiveness. Taste and price are comparable to the other local dim sum places. But for this good of service, I'd likely frequent here as opposed to somewhere else from now on! Also, my photos are unimpressive because I got so caught up in eating and enjoying my food that I kept forgetting to take photos first. It was a nice cozy dining room area, and on the opposite side was the much bigger room probably used when the restaurant is busier and during weddings/events. It looks like a beautiful, spacious spot for a wedding reception and I'm interested to see/eat at a wedding here hopefully one day!

    Awesome banquet dinner. The restaurant is fairly new. Everything was clean bright and looking good. Restrooms were immaculately cleaned now for the food. It was your typical banquet dinner in which we ordered 12 courses so it was two hours of straight eating. We had soup, duck, beef, lobster, vegetables, fried rice, shrimp, calamari, and dessert. Every course was really, really good. The calamari was a little bit below par. The pieces were a bit small and fried a little bit too much. However, the rest of the food was exceptionally good. The stand out is the Peking duck that is just simply awesome. The meat was cooked with preserved veggies, which is not prepared in a way that I've had before before but it worked really well. The flavor so it just simply awesome And was just an explosion in your mouth of flavor. Well done the dessert was quite unique. It was mango pudding with tapioca. What a great way to finish the meal although the banquet took about two hours to eat all the courses. I was really happy and could've even ate more if I really pushed myself Loved every course.

    Beautiful Interior

    Beautiful Chinese banquet restaurant - this place is designed to host parties, wedding receptions, or a nice meal out with the family. The service was excellent! A common problem is running out of space on the lazy susan to put dishes, but the servers were attentive to gradually transferring dishes to smaller plates to make more space. The servers were also super helpful when it came to packing our food to-go. The food itself was decent - coming from Houston my Chinese food standards are just really high, but for what you can find in Atlanta, it is very solid! Not sure how the pricing is though - considering the interior I'd think it is a bit pricey. Would rec if you need a nice location to get solid Chinese food.

    Best BBQ is a Cantonese food stall located inside Great Wall Supermarket. They sell favorites like…read moreroast pork and duck as well as dim sum. Out of all the food stalls in the food court, this one was the most popular when I went. It was pretty lively in the back corner, which is where this place is located. I thought the service was fine. The workers are there to get work done, not to perform outstanding customer service. I got the Crispy Pork on Rice! I love getting this meal at these Cantonese/Chinese places. I found the pork belly to be really tasty. There was a nice marinade over the skin and meat, plus the skin was pretty crispy even when some of the pieces got a little too moist inside the container. I thought there was a generous portion of the crispy pork in my meal. There were some mustard greens in the rice plate which added nice variation in taste. I also got a small cup of complementary soup on the side which I did not try but it did smell good. Overall, I think that my meal was pretty good. I would probably come back if I am ever inside the Great Wall Supermarket.

    Terribly mismanaged and horribly operated. Look, the food is good, but your service should make you…read moreshameful. I placed my order at 4:00pm as it said on the receipt. They first attempted to give me part of my order to dine-in, even though I mentioned to-go. The person trying to hand me the partial order attempted to blame me for not mentioning to-go, then her co-worker who took the order stepped in and said it's to go. After some back and forth between the two of them, they went ahead and gave my partial order to someone else and had that order prepped to-go. Fine and dandy. What time do you think I finally got my order? Remember, it was placed at 4:00pm. Lo and behold, they call me up at 4:56pm. Not only that, they called me up to someone else's order. I know this because I chimed in and said it's been an hour. The order taker replied that it's only been a few minutes. I presented him the receipt. He reads it and says, "Oh." Then he tells the lady to switch the bags because mine wasn't the one they tried to hand me. No apology. No, "Thank you for your patience." Nothing whatsoever besides an, "Oh." Food is good. Seating and ambiance is in a torn down, desperately in need of remodeling, Chinese grocery store. So to your oh, I say hell no. Ain't worth the disrespect and certainly my time.

    Haven't been here in over 7 years. Our last visit was before they moved up to Duluth. We used to…read morelike this place for dim sum. Today we decided to give this place a try. We came for dim sum lunch. The decor at this new place (new to us) was opulent with oversize chandeliers, huge dining hall as if it's meant for a massive Chinese wedding type of dining hall. Dim sum came in carts and as soon as they brought our tea, the cart race to reach us began and we were bombarded with eager aunties offering their plates. We were overwhelmed by the variety. Overall we think they were better than expected as we were reminded their reviews weren't good when they first moved here.

    I've been here a few times over the years, and we quite like this place due to its location: it's…read moreright next to a Costco. Outside of that, the dim sum is good. There are some differences to how menu items are made/taste from when I first had it, so I feel as though the chef has most likely changed. It's both good and bad because the menu items with taro aren't quite as nice as before, but other things are either the same or better like the Beef Ho Fun for example. The chicken feet have changed too, but both were good. All the classic items are still basically the same. I liked the pan fried chives dumplings and beef cheung fun here. I can't speak for dinner or how it is on the weekdays, but it's quite busy over the weekends, which is expected for dim sum. It's a large space too, but once it's busy, you'll have to take a number and wait for a table. There's some seating along the side of the entrance to wait, but it may still take awhile. Usually, only one person really has to go and take a number, so if possible, one person should strive to get there earlier.

We started with the flower tea, amazing choice! Sweet and warming, nicely aromatic. Perfect start. Then the dim sum carts rolled in and we chowed down. DISHES I ORDERED - Siu Mai: Not the best I've had. Quite oily on the outside, but the flavor isn't bad. It does...taste like siu mai. It's just nothing spectacular - Chinese Broccoli: A classic! Very good - Beef Chow Fun: A very chewy and bouncy home made flat noodle dish. Savory, salty, and flavorful! Good amount of tender beef too. - Shrimp Balls: Crispy and fried on the outside, yummy, with good big shrimp ball. Yummy classic sweet and sour sauce too. Delicious - Egg Rolls: Good, not too oily, a normal egg roll - Spare ribs: Possibly my favorite dish! Tender, not too chewy, good savory sweet flavor. -- Overall, it's not bad but it's nothing to write home about. My favorite item was probably the spare ribs. The rest were standard in my opinion. However, service is fast since it is dimsum, so perfect to eat when hungry! Also great ambiance for big group parties or hangouts!

    My partner and I stopped by Ming's BBQ at 9:10 PM, about 50 minutes before closing, and still had a…read morereally pleasant experience. There were only 3 other tables enjoying their dinner besides us. We ordered two waters and a plate with roasted pork and honey BBQ pork over rice with bok choy. The menu didn't list a price for the combo, so we asked the server/cashier beforehand, and he let us know it would be $14.95 after tax, which we appreciated. The food came out in about 10-15 minutes, fresh and hot. The roasted pork and honey BBQ pork were both tender, flavorful, and perfectly balanced -- not overly salty, not too fatty, just really well-prepared. The honey BBQ pork had a slightly caramelized glaze with a smoky sweetness, while the roasted pork had a nice savory depth and crispy edges. The bok choy was fresh and cooked just right, adding a nice crunch and balance to the plate. The rice soaked up all the juices really well and tied everything together. Even coming in later at night, the service was straightforward and efficient, and the quality of the food definitely stood out. Solid portion size, comforting meal, and definitely worth coming back for if you're craving classic Cantonese-style BBQ. My partner rated it a 4.5/5, and I'd definitely return to try more from the menu.

    Came here on a weekday and it was quite well patronized. Ordered a dine in of soy sauce chicken and…read moreroast pork belly with oyster sauce veg, they gave us daily soup and we ordered a bowl of rice. The soy chicken was actually quite nice the flavor was mild, could be more fragrant. The roast pork belly was a little under done and therefore the skin wasn't crispy and nicely roasted evenly. The veg was ok, can't go wrong with that. Love the daily soup though. What I didn't like was that my food came in styrofoam boxes even though we ate there and they knew cos they asked. I wished they use proper plates instead.

The dish also came with what looked like Chinese broccoli, which added a nice balance to the meal. The portion size was great -- it came in a standard takeout container but was definitely enough for both of us to share and feel full. The BBQ pork was the highlight for me (4/5). It was tender, juicy, and nicely caramelized with that classic sweet-savory glaze. The edges had a slight char that added extra depth, and each bite was flavorful without being overwhelming. The roasted pork, on the other hand, was just okay (2.5/5). While the skin had a bit of crispiness, the meat itself leaned on the tougher side and wasn't as juicy as I'd hoped. Unfortunately, there were quite a few bony pieces, which made it feel like we were getting less actual meat. Flavor-wise, it was a bit underwhelming and didn't have the same richness or satisfying texture as the BBQ pork. One thing that really stood out was the sauce poured over everything -- it was savory, slightly sweet, and tied all the components together really well. I also appreciated that the overall dish wasn't too salty, which made it easier to enjoy without feeling heavy. Service-wise, the cashier was friendly and answered our questions clearly, which made ordering easy. Since it's located in a food court, there was plenty of seating available, and it wasn't busy at all for a Saturday around 5 PM -- a nice, relaxed dining experience. Overall, a solid, affordable food court option if you're craving Cantonese BBQ. I'd definitely come back for the BBQ pork, but might try a different second meat next time.

If you come on the weekends, beware the lines and wait time is absolutely nuts. Hostess was getting a bit frustrated, but all the servers/staff inside with the dim sum carts were super nice and personable. There's a tablet to check in at the door when you walk in. The inside was also renovated and looks very different than the old restaurant. Parking is also limited when it gets busy. I don't really eat meat much anymore besides seafood. So I didn't try too many dishes. But my dad loved everything he had, especially the century egg congee. I love the shrimp hargow, basically like shrimp dumplings with a transparent dough. My favorite though was the shrimp steamed rice roll. The shrimp were big and plump, and the sauce they pour on it is really good. Like a soy sauce with a touch of sweetness. I also really enjoyed the fried rice and the hot tea. Everything I tried I can wholeheartedly recommend, but honestly I didn't try too many dishes. I would definitely come back again!! Just maybe at a less prime time because the wait was really crazy.

The food itself was good, no complaints there, but it took a long time for our dishes to come out. It seemed like the restaurant was understaffed for the holiday rush, and the wait times definitely showed it. I don't think this is their usual pace, and I'm willing to chalk a lot of it up to the Father's Day crowd. Still, for a big holiday, you'd expect the restaurant to be better prepared. I'd come back on a normal day, though, because the food really was solid.
