I have been to this restaurant a handful of times just to see if the food could get better No. Not only is it bad, but each meal resembles the other. If you took all the celery and onions from your plate, you would see little food. WhenI got my last order from there, it didn't even look like what I ordered; it looked like all the other meals (Except for the greasy deep-fried foods). Be forewarned if you like good Chinese food.
Have eaten about half a dozen times over the past years. I really wanted to love it, so that’s why I kept going back....But, it’s not very good at all. In fact, none of the Asian foods in the Dalles are.
I have been going to Canton Wok for years, always happy with the food. Did they change owners? It was the worst food ever.The egg flower soup was bland and starchy, the chow mein was 3/4 celery and had alot of garlic.The chicken and shrimp was so dry, we figured out what the brown gravy was for.Then my daughter found a wire (like a brillo pad ) in the egg roll. Im not one to throw out food but we did. Never again will i go there. Picture of wire
This was our second time visiting The Dalles and eating at canton wok. The food was amazing and plentiful - we had the pot stickers (best pot stickers ever) and two happy hour entrees (amazing and smaller than the standard entrees but still very large). We could not eat more than half all the food between two of us. The service is very friendly - you feel like you are a valued regular even when you have only been there twice in 6 months. We would return anytime we are in The Dalles.
So in reading reviews I thought this would be a great place for a quick lunch. I was wrong. In the end my husband stated it was the worst Chinese food he's ever eaten. I actually had worse so I'll give it 2 stars because the place was clean. I don't remember what my husband had but he didn't care for it and it came with several extra sides that he didn't eat. I tried his spring roll and won ton and didn't finish either. My husband asked to sub steamed rice for the fried and our kid ate some of that, but not much. I had a combination with egg foo yung, mar far chicken and fried rice. The egg foo yung had yellow gravy. No idea what that was supposed to be but after 1 bite I couldn't eat any more. Odd overall flavor. The fried rice was just ok but I had to eat around the gravy that ended up on it. The far mar chicken was no better. The best was the egg flower soup. My husband even complained about the water. Overall, we left most of the food and neither felt like eating much the rest of the day with sour stomachs. Would NEVER return or recommend. I apologized to him for suggesting it. Plus, the service was sloooow. It seemed to take forever to get our order taken and then awhile to get our food and then bill. At least the table and the bathrooms were clean.
