Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

I discovered the Canton House on Yelp and called for a delivery. The guy on the phone was very nice and professional and very helpful and patient with me since I didn't have a menu when ordering. The food arrived pretty fast, 30min or so (delivery guy kinda weird) and I must say I was again very very satisfied. The food was a-touch greasy (no biggie) but it was very flavorful , I could actually taste all the individual flavors from the different dishes, even the different dipping sauces where really good. It's wasn't a one note experience, finally, sigh.. The food and service is far far better than most Chinese food restaurants in the surrounding area and they will defiantly be my go to Chinese restaurant from now on.

I live in the neighbor hood. I just picked up a large order of chicken fingers. Wow that's a lot of chicken fingers for $9! Will I have enough sauce for all of them? Don't need the sauce, delicious as they are.

The worse customer service I have ever received! Called in at 5:30pm for delivery and was told to call back at 7 because that's when the start delivery. I called back at 7 and was told they were too busy and then was hung up on! I will never call again!

So far, so good! This place has been consistent with good food, lightning fast delivery, friendly service and good prices. Best thing is that the FOOD is GOOD. Really good. My favorite Chinese spot in the neighborhood thus far!

I'm giving this three stars for the crab rangoon, which is awesome. Sometimes you'll have to wait 45 minutes for a pick up order. One day I ordered the chicken lo mein and it was pretty good. I ordered it a couple of weeks later and the chicken had the texture of hard rice mashed together. The meal seemed like it came out of a can. It was a drastic drop in quality in such a short time. Their fried rice is pretty good. It has more pepper in it than I'm accustomed to.

You know that greasy, nasty, Chinese food joint that makes you question how clean they are and makes you wonder if any critters got into your egg foo yung? Yup this is that place! My sister swears over the years they have gotten better and actually have good food to eat.... but Just like the Chinese food I often question my sister as well. Well... This is THAT PLACE! I've tried it many times over and every darn time I am upset with myself and end up throwing the food away because my dog won't even touch it. I know I know shame on me for trying to feed the dog this food its not worthy and he usually eats organic. I could sit here and tell you what the food taste like but I don't feel like wasting your time... If you're in Boston just spend the extra money on gas and go to Cathay Pacific you will be so happy you did and so will your taste buds, stomach, wallet and toilet bowl.

Ordered late the other night, and was very disappointed. The food was entirely flavorless. Chicken fingers, wontons, and egg rolls shouldn't taste exactly the same, but unfortunately that was the case here. Deep fried to oblivion. Even the bbq'd boneless ribs lacked any flavor.

Boston has horrendous Chinese takeout places as a general rule. This one decidedly does not fit the stereotype. As is typical of businesses of this nature, the help isn't very helpful, but when you do receive your food, you'll be pleased with the result. Fried rice and spareribs are the usual take when my buddy and I go here. Great choices. I also love their apparently homemade duck sauce, which is a wonderfully sweet dipping sauce for those ribs. -1 star because we once showed up at like 11:30 AM on a Sunday, and for some reason the guy simply refused to serve us. Some completely non-English speaking man was at the counter, and no matter how loudly we yelled "FRIED RICE!!!" at him, he just stood there and shook his head in terror/confusion/uselessness. Not sure what was going on that day... Anyway, I've tried other Chinese spots in Dorchester, and few, if any, measure up to Canton House.

Reviews like some of these make me despair of using Yelp ratings as any sort of reliable gauge of restaurant quality. I have lived around the corner from Canton House for some 25 years now, years in which I've scoured the length and breadth of Dorchester for decent Chinese food (and trust me, I take my food, Chinese or otherwise, VERY seriously). Please believe me when I tell you that, even by abysmal Dorchester caters-to-late-night-fried-rice-and-crab-rangoon standards, this place is dreadful. So dreadful that, even when housebound by illness or weather, I will not walk the one block to patronize it. The food is ghastly by any definition, and is not even that cheap -- there's a place a block away on Dudley that has the same quality [sic] for less. The level of Chinese food offerings in Dorchester is sadly very sub-par -- I used to order take-out from my favorite haunts in Chinatown and then bomb downtown and park illegally to try to snag my food before getting a parking ticket. There were a couple of restaurants in Fields Corner over the years that tried to buck the trend and offer more authentic fare; sadly, neither of them survived (at least, not in the authentic iterations). Mercifully, some years back Chau Chow opened an outpost down on Morrissey Blvd. (Clam Point), so I no longer have to risk a $50 ticket for decent Chinese food. The atmosphere is nothing to write home about, but they're open late, 365 days a year (that means this cook doesn't have to worry about serving dinner to her family the night before Thanksgiving!), and BONUS -- they serve dim sum on the weekends. There is no reason to eat at the Canton House unless you have no tastebuds and really can't tell the difference.

YUCK YUCK YUCK!!! I'm extremely picky with Chinese food. Just recently moved to this area. Dont know many Restaurants around here. Decided to take a chance and order after reading the reviews. NEVER again! The rice was super mushy. The chicken lo mein was weird. The lobester sauce was DISGUSTING!!!
