Don't let the outside of this building fool you! The food here is awesome! In a choice between renovating their building and just cooking delicious food, the owners have apparently decided to prioritize the latter. I'll admit that at first I was afraid to try it out. This establishment is located a couple of blocks down from a bank where robbers coming out of the bank were supposedly in turn robbed themselves before making their escape. However, I was intrigued by all of the positive reviews of this place and even one of my neighbors suggested we try it. Being originally from the east coast, I had become accustomed to the way Chinese food is prepared over there. Until now, I had not had any Chinese food over here that was made anything like the way they make it back home. To me, it was one disappointment after another. I was starting to wonder if I would honestly have to go back to the east coast in order to enjoy Chinese food again. Then I found this place! While there are understandably some variations in flavoring, the food at Canton Wong #8 is almost exactly the way they make it back home. I was shocked! I tried the sweet and sour chicken and it was excellent! The sauce was not too tangy or too sweet like at the other places here that I tried. There was actually chicken inside of the fried dough (as opposed to there being chicken-flavored fried matter). The fried rice had bits of fried egg in it, which I really enjoyed! The eggroll shells were crispy and didn't only have chopped up cabbage (or whatever it is) stuffed inside them. The crab puffs were stupendous! As a bonus, the meal even came with lo mein. It wasn't seasoned quite like they make it back home, but a little soy sauce did the trick. I will definitely come back to this place! NOTE: The lunch combo prices are about $6 per plate and the dinner combo prices are about $9 per plate. read more
