    Chicken Chow Mein Combo

    I've been going to Canton Wok for many years! There is no better fried rice in the valley! The owners are so kind and attentive to their patrons and they have great service. The ambiance is reminiscent of an older ramen shop! This is a great way to end your day. My favorite meals are the Sesame Chicken combo (C10) and the Vietnamese BBQ bowl (V3). You will not be disappointed!

    Mongolian Beef - well it's supposed to be, but I promise it's not..
    Elle B.

    The menu looked great, the lady who took my order was so very sweet & nice. For nearly $20 off the lunch special menu- I can't say too much about this little place.. The supposed Mongolian Beef is like boiled soggy soft beef (I think) with more white onions than anyone ever needs to eat, add more- green onions-with zero flavor. Not a single pepper flake red, black or any to be seen or tasted. It's just bland. Then the vegetable chow fun?? Add another entire white onion, green onion & some bean sprouts (no other vegetable in site) and sadly, it too has zero flavor of anything distinct- but at least it has texture. The white rice is terrific! If your looking for something to taunt your tastebuds, sadly I have to suggest that you keep on, keepin on.. Let me know if you find something yummy! As for this late Friday lunch--

    I love this place. We get soup, pot stickers, and I get the Beef and Broccoli! The food is fresh and so yummy.

    Cashew Chicken
    Wendy G.

    Truly bad food & it's hard to mess up Cashew Chicken. Very little chicken. Waaaaay too many peas & carrots. Cashews were slightly burnt which made it taste acrid. Also paid $8.75 for the teriyaki chicken. There were only a few thin pieces of chicken & the teriyaki sauce was so soupy & watered down. Definitely was not worth my hard earned money. Never ordering here ever again.

    Place has went down hill very fast. Food comes out dirtier then a bone, the sweet and sour pork is just a huge ball of batter with a small block of frozen pork inside. Used to love love this place it's quite disgusting now.

    Fire!!!
    Paul G.

    Tried for the 1st time & it was awesome. Ordered quite a few different things to try menu & take leftovers for lunch. The Pho is basic but has good broth. My daughter loved the shrimp fried rice, but could use a few more shrimp. The appetizer tray came out with fire, super cool!!! The chef came out & greeted us. We love this place now. Worth a try, new owners!!

    A longtime favorite for authentic Cantonese food and excellent dim sum!…read more Amazing dim sum options, especially on the weekends when the carts roll out hot and fresh. The Siu Mai (pork and shrimp) is savory and juicy -- definitely one of my favorites. I also tried the Shrimp with Chive Dumplings, and they were surprisingly excellent: juicy, savory, with a nice fresh onion flavor. The Steamed BBQ Pork Buns are pillowy soft and practically melt in your mouth with their sweet shredded pork filling. Pro tip: Just eat the fried shrimp balls! The sweet and lightly mustard-tangy sauce that comes with them, combined with some sweet chili sauce, is absolute heaven. Just don't burn your mouth when they bring them out fresh from the fryer -- you're welcome. Order 3 dim sum plates if you're hungry, or 4 if you're starving or sharing with others. It's the perfect amount! The service is good -- friendly and attentive -- but it can get a little slow when they're busy, which is often. You can tell this is a popular spot that's been a favorite in the area for many years. The large groups that regularly file into the private dining room in the back say it all. Whether you're coming for weekend dim sum, a big family meal, or classic Cantonese dishes, Red Maple consistently delivers that comforting, high-quality experience. Highly recommend -- I've been back many times and will go again soon!

    My mother-in-law recommended this to me. I'm usually really hesitant when people recommend Chinese…read moreRestaurants to me. I'm not a big fan of the "Panda Express" tasting Chinese food. For starters, we ordered the Wor Wonton Soup. The broth was rich and hearty. The shrimps were large and plentiful. All the vegetables blended in with the flavors. I just wish the beef was a little more tender. A little marinade in baking soda would fix this. We ordered some chicken lettuce wraps. This has minced chicken, celery, bamboo shoots, and carrots. These are good by themselves but are best with hoisin sauce. I just wish the lettuce leaves were bigger. The Honey Walnut Shrimp was also good. The sauce had a nice blend of mayo, honey and lemon. It had a little too much breading for me but still tasted good. For $16.99, I wished there was a bit more shrimp. One thing I really appreciate - they GLAZE the walnuts! This is one of the few places that I actually like the sauce and they glaze the walnuts! The Crispy Beef is definitely my favorite. In fact, I think this is better than the one I get from Red Maple. It was not too sweet and had just the right amount of heat. Again, I really wish they would marinate the beef in baking soda to soften it up. The last dish we ordered was the Garlic Chicken. The server forgot to put the order in for this dish and there was a rush to get it out to us. They forgot to put garlic in this dish so wee sent it back. It was perfect when it came back. This place is fast becoming our go-to-place for Chinese Food. It's was a nice surprise and I'll can't wait to try the other dishes!

The look of the restaurant inside has changed a few times. when I was there last there was a casual seating area at the back of the restaurant. There were people there waiting for takeout orders. I really enjoyed the great chow mein with the beef. Next time I might try it with chicken or pork because the beef was a little hard to chew for my liking. The noodles tasted delicious and flavorful. I always have to order the cold cucumber salad. It is a great accompaniment to any dish. I added the peanuts to the cucumbers because I really like them together so if you order the cucumbers, they will not come with peanuts. It is a strange request, but they accommodated me with no problem. They had a case at the front of the restaurant with grapes and strawberries, skewered and coated in a crunchy sugary coating. It was a little bit messy, but I did not mind because it tasted so good. The strawberries were super sweet, fresh and juicy with a thin, sweet crunchy shell. I will try the grapes next time. Thank you for the delicious food

We ordered: Fried rice - the corn in the fried rice tasted almost spoiled Beef brocoli - the beef was tender but not as tasty or fresh Garlic ribs - cut into small portions was not what I expected and a little dry Only great was the service and those fruit on a stick in the glass counter. The high prices was not worth it.

We were stopping in SLC for a few days on our way home from CO, and I really wanted Malatang. I saw there was a chain Malatang place and Mr. D's, so obviously we had to go with the locally-owned one. The restaurant was small, but the lighting was bright and everything was clean and tidy. The station to build your own bowl was kept at proper holding temperature. There was a good variety of everything, and the owner was even bringing out fresh rolls of frozen meat when we arrived. The veggies were fresh as well. I really liked that the trays we put our raw ingredients on were wrapped with plastic for extra food safety. After we finished choosing our ingredients, we went up to the counter and told the owner how we wanted our Malatang to be prepared. I went with the mild spicy bone broth and my husband went with the spicy dry pot. While we waited, we prepared our sauce. I like to add extra garlic and chili oil to mine, as well as green onions and cilantro. We decided to just share one bowl of sauce this time. This Malatang place also comes with free unlimited rice, which is not something I've seen at other Malatang places in NorCal. We didn't end up getting any rice because we had plenty of ingredients in our individual bowls, but if we were sharing, then we probably would have gotten rice. Considering the price of the Malatang was only $15 a pound, what a steal. It was nice to watch the owner prepare our Malatang right behind the checkout counter! Everything was piping hot when it was ready to be picked up. You are in charge of getting your own food when the buzzer rings. We especially liked that the fish/meat balls we selected were cut in half to make sure they were cooked the entire way through. The bone broth was deliciously flavorful and silky, and the meat was tender. All the ingredients were so good! Upon adding some of my sauce, that definitely turned my broth into a flavor bomb. My husband's dry pot was delightfully numbing and spicy, and all the ingredients were coated evenly. He was also a big fan. While we ate, more people arrived, and I was glad that all the Asians knew this place was the place for Malatang. Soon, the restaurant was almost full. We wrapped up our meal and left feeling satisfied and happy. I would definitely recommend Mr. D's Malatang for those needing their Malatang fix while in SLC (and of course for locals who love Malatang too) and can't wait to return the next time we visit.

I'm not sure if this is a Utah thing or if it was simply their ideas, but some things were too different for my liking. The ham fried rice was okay. I'm used to egg fried rice, so it was a little different eating ham fried rice. It also was missing a little bit of flavor too. It just seemed like boring rice really. We ordered a combo which came with 2 cream cheese Rangoon. Those were the spotlight of the meal. The egg rolls were not pork egg rolls. They were vegetable spring rolls and had weird water inside which made them really not taste good. I was really looking forward to those nice greasy fried egg rolls with cabbage and pork, but alas. The won Ton soup is less than stellar. It was packed full of vegetables which seemed good, but again, it had no flavor. It tastes like cabbage water. The worst of all was the won tons themselves. They were soggy chicken dumplings. They were not made of the typical won Ton wrappers, but more like bao bun dough and the meat inside was soggy flavorless chicken. The kung Pao chicken was really the only thing we ate aside from the crab Rangoon. They were heavy on the peanuts and veggies and it had a good sauce to meat ratio. Outside of that, I really can't recommend going to this place at all. Which I hate because they really were so friendly and made me think this food was going to be sooo good. I don't think Utah knows Chinese food though.
