On a cold blustery afternoon soup was on my mind and I remembered wanting to try this place out- we frequent happy lemon next door so we've passed by Canton Noodle House more than a few times. Was greeted and seated immediately with a welcome cup of hot tea and eating utensils. It was around 2pm so the dining room was quiet- I like the vibe it feels very familiar and welcoming even though it was the first time here. I went with the wonton and brisket soup and as the staff brought the bowl to the table the sun broke through the clouds like a SOUP MIRACLE omg. Anyway the broth was nice and light and with some chili I added to my satisfaction nicely spicy. The light broth and thin noodles really set the stage for the well seasoned brisket and amazing shrimp/pork wontons to shine. Green onions and broccoli brought the freshness. They have a lot of other cool stuff on the menu that I'll want to try next time like the congee, Chinese donuts, and fried chicken. After our meal.... weofcoursewenttohappylemonafewdoorsover.
This was my first stop after landing in Seattle, and I'm glad I tried this place for lunch. I love noodles anytime, but especially on a cold and rainy day. I ordered the wonton and beef tendon combo, which came steaming hot in a delicious broth. They have both regular and large sizes. The noodles were cooked just right, and I kind of regret I didn't get a larger size - though I did get a sesame ball for dessert that was also quite tasty! The restaurant is easy to find in a big strip mall with other (mostly Asian) establishments, and there's plenty of parking for anyone driving. Located near several bus stops as well. I love discovering family-owned restaurants, and Canton Noodles House was no exception.
I Love love love this family owned restaurant. I'm a frequent flyer to Seattle and I always make sure to stop by at this neighborhood gem at least once. This trip I pretty much tried everything on the menu. Their menu is simple but I guarantee you every single dish will leave you satifisfied. Service is excellent and always fast and efficient. I always enjoy the family oriented ambiance. I feel like I'm visiting a family when I'm there. Thank you Canton noodle house for always taking good care of us. Hope to see you soon.
Updating a review on their chicken wings: Recommend the salt and pepper chicken wings! They come out piping hot, crispy, and juicy. Has the crispy garlic and jalapeno on top. This would be so good on rice! Loved a regular size wonton noodle soup and some chicken wingsssss. Yum! I'll for sure get them again.
Yet another place I've never been to despite living in this city my whole life... until now. This place shares parking with places like Ding Feng and Happy Lemon. As most likely stated in other reviews, make sure your parking is near-perfect in this strict rule-enforced area or you will get ticketed. Passing that, the place feels somewhat intimate and homely, with the feel of the tables and chairs resembling most Chinese restaurants in Chinatown and bright incandescent lights above the tables. You get a menu and servers take your order. There's a ton of noodle soups here but they also serve congee, salt and pepper dishes, claypot dishes and other things. Before going on, I've personally had less-than-great experiences eating wonton noodle soups, in particular at one place that everyone seems to like and rave about in Seattle's Chinatown... having said that, I got the wonton and beef brisket noodle soup through my friend's recommendation, and man it was really good especially when you add in chili oil! Soup was fresh, wontons were perfect and the noodles didn't over- or underpower the soup like it does for other places I've had wonton noodle soups at. Beef briskets were tender and flavored well. This might become a place I'll recommend to anyone wanting to visit Seattle! It's that delicious!
Found this place on Yelp as my husband was looking for a place with some authentic congee. Came on a Sunday afternoon and it was fairly busy. I ordered the clay pot, spicy, with beef brisket and rice noodles. We ordered our kids the dumpling and beef brisket noodle soup, and the mister ordered chicken congee with a side of Chinese donuts. We also ordered the steamed veggies with oyster sauce (Chinese broccoli). I love spicy and my spicy clay pot was spicy for sure. I didn't expect it to be that spicy but it was very flavorful and the amount of items in it was a lot. My kids wonton and beef brisket noodle soup was way too salty to be honest. A lot of noodles in it and not much other stuff. Hubby's chicken congee was delicious. My kids wanted more Chinese donut so we ordered another extra side of that. Total was $80ish with tip which was rather pricey in my opinion. We left half the wonton and beef brisket soup as the kids didn't want it. I'd come back for the congee and clay pot but probably not the noodle soup dishes.
Comforting, classic mom and pop restaurant that you shouldn't pass on! We stopped by for a low key brunch. Dishes were very well seasoned and prepared, with nice portions and reasonable prices. Service was great, too. Conveniently located in a plaza with plenty of parking, and other small businesses like an Asian grocery store and bakery.
Cute mom & pop sort of restaurant. I ordered the wonton & sui-kau noodles with thin noodle. I thought the serving was very filling and it came with so many wontons and sui-kau. Honestly I wasn't super sure of the difference between the two dumplings. One kind of dumpling had shrimp and pork and a silkier wrapper, and the other was pork only with wood ear mushroom and a different wrapper. The soup was a little salty for me but otherwise delicious. We also got the crispy fried wontons (8). It was freshly fried and piping hot. I think these were ok. It came with a sweet chili dipping sauce.
Nice little gem in an outside mall. The reviews are accurate and the food and service are pretty good. We ordered the wonton noodle soup with beef brisket and the recommended claypot rice noodles with spicy flavor and beef. Both are great options. Definitely will be back to try the rest of the menu.
If you're looking for some hearty noodle soup, this is the place to go to. Besides noodle soups, the menu also features dishes with dry noodles with a cup of soup on the side. It's a nice and simple restaurant without the fuss. Service is straightforward and easy.
We were looking for a quick bite to eat while our baby slept and pleasantly came across this noodle house. Inside was clean and had ample seating for lunch on a weekday. Didn't wait long for our food to come out piping hot. The noodle soups were comforting and had lots of flavor. The "regular" is the perfect portion size to feel full but not over-stuffed. Salt and pepper squid had a light crispy batter with delicious bits of crispy fried garlic and chopped jalapeños on top. I liked that it wasn't overly salty. We ordered a fish congee to go so am looking forward to trying that out too. Don't forget to check out the fried goodies in the case at the front on your way out. My husband and I agreed that this meal hit the spot!
Definitely a hole in the wall type of restaurant. In the best way possible. We came here on a Saturday evening and our party of 6 got seated right away. Our server was really nice and we got our waters filled quickly. I ordered the wonton and brisket soup and it was great. Super flavorful broth and the brisket was very tender. Would definitely come back again.
Comfort food to the max! Quick service and large portions. Love the fried dough. Do fresh and I could eat 10 of those drowned in the congee myself. The wontons are delicious too. Wish the tables are a little bit more cleaner and less sticky read more
WELCOME TO THE REEEEEMIX!! If you grew up in Seattle in the early 2000s and you are Chinese, I promise you are here before. My parents would take me for the most comforting congee and Chinese donuts in the world. I've been going through some rough times lately and I searched Yelp in hopes for a bowl of comfort and this location popped up. I wasn't sure if it was the same, but I'm always game to try someone's mama's comfort food. Literally a blast from the past. And when I say comfort, I'm saying I am crying uncontrollably every 10-15 minutes and this congee was so good I haven't shed a tear! Service is quick and tidy, and like most congee places this is for the food, you don't come here for decor. If you need a good place to get some comfort food, this is the place to go! Congee is difficult to make right since everyone who's had it likes it different ways because our mom's all catered it to their families liking, but this hits alllll the spots!! read more

A cozy meal for a rainy day. I had the fish congee with a side of greens and donuts to dip into it. The congee was so silky, with the perfect balance of ginger. I'll be back in a few days, LOL. read more

Our first Cantonese food/noodle joint on our Seattle adventure. 4.5 stars for flavor, 3 stars for value, and 3.5 stars for portion size.....so that averages out to 4. We stopped at 3 of the top Cantonese-style noodle houses in Seattle and ordered beef brisket and wonton noodle soup (it's like a go-to dish at these simple Chinese diners) at each place. Finding ourselves in South Seattle, this shop was convenient. It was pricier than the places in International District which was surprising since you'd think rent would've been less. The noodle was spot-on though a bit skimpy for the large bowl. A total of 9 large won ton/ siu kau came with the large bowl, and 8-9 pieces of beef brisket were in the large bowl of noodle soup. The beef brisket was lean and lacked deep flavor. The noodle soups were good, not great and we were still hungry afterwards, so not a good value. The mall where this diner was located is looking run down and uninviting. If you're in the area, and hankering chinese noodle soup, maybe stop by, but not my first choice in Seattle. read more

I am writing this review after trying the same noodle bowls at multiple noodle restaurants in the Seattle area. I tried a large bowl of wonton & sui kau noodle soup and a large bowl of beef brisket noodle soup. Let me first say that both broths were super tasty. The wonton broth was strong in seafood flavor. Broth flavor is definitely their strength. In fact, their broth was the best amongst all the noodle houses I visited. I got 3 wontons and 2 sui kaus. I still don't know the difference between sui kau and wonton. I think sui kau is really slightly larger than wonton but they are the same thing. The sim kau at this place is just slightly larger than wonton. Other than that they have the same filling and taste the same as wonton. And for that reasons I don't think it was worth extra for sui kau. However I visited another restaurant in Seattle, their sui kaus were much larger than wontons. Also their sui kaus had extra fillings like real chinese mushrooms. So I would suggest skipping the sui kau and stick with plain wontons. You save $2.25 and they may give you more wontons. As for the beef brisket, they were tender and flavor was right on. Both bowls come with chinese brocolli which was a good touch. The noodle was great but I won't say that there was that much even for large bowl. I hate to imagine how little you get for regular bowl. You know how you get this feeling as you are slurping down these delicious noodle and the noodle just keep growing? Well you won't get that feeling here. The pricing is also highest amongst the noodle houses I did my comparision. And for the higher pricing and lack of noodle, I knocked down 2 stars. read more

Spicy beef soup was hot, lip numbing flavors and hot temperature just like my grandma used to make. The service is nice, friendly, answered all of my questions and helped me decide my order. Simple, walk-in atmosphere. Nothing fancy. It's how I like my noodle soup shops. Definite stop when I'm in the area. read more

Yummy food and generous portions! We came to this place around noon on a Sunday. We ordered claypot spicy beef rice noodle, wonton Sui-Kau Noodle soup, and Salt Pepper fried chicken. All tatses pretty good and homey! I'd recommend trying the claypot noodle if you want to try something more flavorful beyond the general canton dishes. It comes in different soup options: spicy, tomato, golden hot and sour etc. and it has loads of toppings including fish balls, beef balls, corns, ham, greens, etc. The service is very nice. read more

Has a cockroach problem. Last week went in person and we noticed a cockroach run by the window then today our delivery food from here had a cooked cockroach in the broth. This is a good place but they need to work on bugs and cleanliness. read more

I think this review would've been 4 stars if I had just gotten the brisket, wonton noodle soup. While the broth was a bit one note and bland, it was a solid bowl. The egg rolls were one of the worst egg rolls I've ever had. In fact, I've had better egg rolls at Panda Express. The fried chicken wings were fine but I wouldn't get those again. read more
This review occurred during the COVID-19 pandemic and is for in-house dining. This is located in an unassuming strip mall next to a laundromat. It's definitely a hole-in-the-wall mom and pop kind of place. Definitely not glamorous. Social distancing is enforced and masks are required. The noodles came out quickly after ordering, and are absolutely scrumptious. This is homey Chinese wonton noodles. Definitely MSG. Definitely reminds me of my childhood. Definitely bringing my parents here when they come to visit. Definitely coming back! read more
I haven't been here since they were in the ID. It's nice to have in this neighborhood I grew up in my dad still leaves close and it's nice to have this option since the majority of noodle houses in the area are pho. We dined in one if the first places we done in a long time. It wasn't busy inside so we felt comfortable and tables seating is well placed and clean. Service was friendly. Dad and I both had the Sui-Kao Beef Brisket Noodle soup. The bowl was deep and chock full of sui-kao and brisket I also enjoyed the vegetable in the dish think it ws Chinese Broccoli. Broth was deep with flavor. Will definitely be back to try some other items on the menu. read more

I have been going to the restaurant over 10 years since their last location in ID. Unfortunately the original owners sold the business and now with new management, the food doesn't taste the same not to mention ridiculous portions. It's too bad we lost one of the hidden gem Chinese restaurant and I will not be going there again. read more

Wasn't feeling well and needed some congee. Got the chicken congee and Chinese salted doughnuts. It was exactly what I needed. The congee was perfect and had lots of ginger in it. I ordered from UberEats and it still arrived piping hot. read more
