Your food is amazing but your customer service sucks. Best spring rolls ever, I’ll miss them but let’s be honest you guys didn’t even care. My wife and I have ordered from here for years, absolutely loved this place. Tonight we placed an order. One of the meals was the mushrooms and beef. My wife asked for only mushrooms and beef. When we got the order it was only mushrooms and beef, but half an order yet we were charged full price. I fully get that extra beef would be extra money and happy to pay that but you guys said nothing and thought it’s ok to charge full price for half the food. We called and complained and instead of offering a solution we were told that’s how it is and wont do anything about it. So I returned all the food. As I’m returning it the owner and two other people don’t say a single word of English to me, just talking in Chinese to each other. Again another opportunity to make this correct and they can’t even be bothered to say a single word of English to me, just a lot of talk in Chinese very clearly about me. You guys lost a very loyal customer today.

This is the best Chinese in Welland dare I say Niagara. The staff are always wonderful and the food is piping hot even after a 20 minute drive home. Highly recommend Canton House.

The Canton house is our go-to spot. We picked up our family fav tonight- dinner for 3 sub beef with veg for black pepper chicken and an order of Singapore noodle. Mrs. And I got to talking while I was waiting for my order and she said they've been open 40 years now and won the award for best Chinese food this summer. She did say that some nights are quite slow and it's thanks to the regulars for keeping them steady most weekends. They used to have a great buffet but due to too much food waste, they had to stop and after covid, are takeout only now. The food is awesome consistently. We've been eating here since before I was born. (Mom craved the egg rolls I've been told) I don't think they offer delivery, I always pickup. Worth the drive. Kind people fantastic food💜

Been coming here for 22 years. Different owners over the years, and some changes to the menu. Sad there's no more buffet, but I get it, rising costs and all.... I always get the Black Pepper Chicken. You can't get it anywhere else. Great Lemon Chicken, really rich lemon flavor. And The Fried Rice and Wonton is great too.

This is my favorite place to eat in the Rose City - Black Pepper chicken is my jam and the Wonton Soup is the best. I miss the buffet days of my youth but the take out is incredible and dining in, is still an option. People who give this place less than four stars are terrible people with no taste buds; I doubt they even know if they are wearing pants. Canton House 4 LYFE

Moved away from our previous favorite spot and were very impressed by Canton House. Food was delicious, and the veggie dishes had much more variety in them than other places. This is our new go-to for chinese food.

The best lemon chicken in town! Others serve lemon sauce rice and chicken all on an individual basis and you mix it or chicken balls and lemon sauce. Canton has a beautiful presentation when you pop the lid off with thinly sliced veggies with chicken chunks in a thick lemon sauce.Yummy! Wish you still delivered

Our normal place was not open so my wife grabbed dinner from this place for take out. We had the dinner for 2 which consisted of egg rolls, chicken fried rice and beef with mixed vegetables. The egg rolls and rice were OK but the vegetables were way over cooked and the beef slices were sub par. The prices are pretty high for what you get. We will not be going back.

Weve been ordering regularly from the Canton House for well over 15 years. Wed always order the Dinner for Four with a few tweaks. The food was always excellent and the delivery always courteous and without fail. We were very disappointed when we called to place an order today to learn that they were no longer offering delivery service. Not sure when that occurred as we havent been able to order in a while. This is very sad to us as we are without transportation and are across the city, so this may very well be the end of our ordering with Canton House unless they are able to again offer this service. Thank you so much to the delivery staff who have braved both the heat of summer and the snow of winter to bring us our Canton House deliveries! :)

My friends and I went to Canton house as our regular place in Port Colborne was closed. The place is very run down and had a strange odour when we walked in. The food didn t taste very good except the egg roll was alright. All three of us felt sick after eating here. I was very nauseous. Will never eat here again. Also prices a rather high for the quality of food.
