  “Visited yesterday 20/6/26 as part of a week holiday with family. The team were very welcoming with no waiting time, attentive and gave us the information needed on how we order. The food was delicious it came to our table, hot, fresh and full of flavour. If I could make my own personal recommendation definetly give the lemon chicken a go. It was tangy and had a great twang to it. Should we ever head to this neck of the woods again we shall definetly be paying another visit.”

  “The place is going downhill. Their salt and chilli dishes (which should be cooked with onions, peppers, garlic and chilli) came without anything. Just msg. They put this down to a new recipe. Because people dont eat the veg! They also charged us £13 for my 4 year old who only ate part of our starter and 1 scoop of ice cream. Overall, the concept is great but the food is poor and customer care is too.”

  “Our experience at the chef canton was very pleasant. We were welcomed and introduced very warmly by Pipi who sat us down with a wonderful bright smile and provided excellent customer service throughout our experience. Pipi was truly amazing, she was serving at the front desk whilst also taking orders and cleaning all tables at the same time whilst keeping composed and ensuring all guests were satisfied and happy with their needs. Thank you Pipi for the amazing service. The food was spectacular and some of the best fresh Chinese food we’ve eaten. The star of the show was the salt and chilli wings which we ordered 3 times. We also enjoyed the special fried rice, chicken chow mein and sweet and sour chicken for mains. Everything we ate was 10/10 and we will be coming back to try even more from the menu. The banana fritters were also a must try, one of the best desserts I’ve had in a while. Great food and great service! Be sure to give the chef canton a try you’ll be pleasantly surprised!!!!”

  “Really surprised how we have been treated this evening. Not just us most of people behind tables. This place should be wait as much as you can not eat as much as you can. Honestly takeaway services more important than guests in the restaurant?waited over 30 minutes for first order every other order about the same. Most of people in the restaurant was and bit nervous if I can use this word. Time at the table 1.5 hour no more for £30 berly had bowls of nuddels and some chicken. Half of orders mixed up with other tables or didn’t turn up at all. Very disappointed. End it up leaving restaurant not impressed at all. Shame really this suppose to be nice evening out with wife. Not sure if this management issue ? Not blaming Waiters obviously . Not sure if ever coming back sorry”

  “Tonight 4 of us arrived at this restaurant soaking through wet having just been court in the downpour. Straight away the gentleman inside was obliging, taking us to a table and very kindly bringing over some towels to dry ourselves down and make ourselves comfortable. Drinks were very quickly bought out and soon we were eating very delicious food we all enjoyed. Nothing was too much trouble. Staff very friendly and efficient. We have come here several times in the past and will gladly continue to use again. Excellent food and excellent service - Thank you!”
