Pork, Mobsters & an Empty Tank 2012-02-26
This hole in the wall is very easy to miss (I stood in front of it asking where it was) unless you're with someone who's been before. And really, only someone who's been before will take you there.
Very typical Chinese Room setup complete with cockroach darting across the wall. It's dark and broody with chequered red & white tablecloths and Gook waiters in penguin attire. As in my city, this tends to draw 1960s gangsters and large briefcases. It's the sort of place where people are likely to pull out a deck and deal a round of poker. If you lose and can't cough up, parts of you will appear... read more -

Excellent place to hangout in Jaynagar 4th block 2011-07-13
I usually visit this place when I want to hangout with a buddy and there are lots of talks to share. Unlike pubs, where having a conversation is like juggling frogs, this a very decent place in an abandoned building.Interiors look like an old house. Scores low on Ambiance. But with its lip smacking dishes, it compensates excellently. Serves chilled beer, not to forget at very pocket friendly pricing. Drums of heaven (chicken) being its signature dish is also the tastiest thing in it's kind i've ever eaten. A very decent place to visit with families as well. But difficult to find a table on weekends... read more -

Lip smacking Chinese Food..!! 2011-03-14
Food - I being a great fan for chinese food have enjoyed everything that is served here . The food you order is very tasty and unlike most restaurants has its own distinct flavor .
My personal liking is Drums of heaven and taipai chicken for starters.
Ambiance - It has not been renovated from the time it started i guess and i guess that is how it should be for an old restaurant . As you sit there and eat ,u can forget the hustle and bustle of the city and just relax in the dimly lit dining area.
Service - Most of the guys who serve here are oldies n they know their menu very well... read more -

Great chinese food. Not okay ambiance and service 2010-10-24
Food: Great. This is THE place for indianised "chinese" food. Make sure u try out the Drums of Heaven, taipei chicken, and the assorted noodles and rice items. When you are ordering starters, do not forget to order the Hot garlic sauce as well. They serve good beer too.
Ambiance: Canton does not score too great on the ambiance front. The place is dingy, dimly lit, and often smoke filled. The place attracts quite a crowd, which may force you to wait outside on the street till they find a table for you.
Service: The waiters know their menu very well, which is a good thing, since... read more -

THE place for chinese food 2010-06-21
Food: Excellent 'indianised' chinese food. Order anything from the menu and it'll be tasty. They do charge separately for the sauce that accompanies the starters (Rs. 15). Take one if you're having a couple of starters - the quantity is as much as a soup!!
Ambience: It's a very old establishment and they haven't renovated. Dimly lit place with a 'family area' on the first floor. Definitely not a fine dining type of place but not hole in wall either
Service: Needs a whole lot of improvement. They need to be asked repeatedly for menus, water, food
Drinks: They serve alcoho... read more -

Good Food At Affordable prices 2010-05-20
The decor of the place is not great. It is not a place for someone looking for nice ambience but if it is food you are interested in then canton is definitely a place you should visit for good chinese food any day better than the other chinese food chains in Bangalore .My personal favourites would be The fried rice, Pork Roast and Drums of heaven and the Bar menu is priced pretty reasonable too -

Budget chinese food.... 2009-04-22
this is one of the first chinese restaurants i have been to..
the pork spare ribs and pork chilli are the best....though i must admit i have tasted the whole menu and everythings quite good.. for main course you can try the mixed(praws,pork,chicken) noodles....which is very good...can have a beer or two and chill out with good chinese food..service is sometimes slow and the waiters never serve the food..so u have to help yourselves or ask them to:-) ...cheers -

Good place for budget Chinese food 2008-09-03
I have been going here since 1994. Nothing much has changed since. Some of the waiters working there have been around for several years. Unfortunately the place has not been renovated since I first started going there. There is still no air conditioning and most of the cooling comes via air coolers.
Coming to the food... The quality of food is great in comparison to other budget Chinese restaurants. Over the years, I have pretty much had everything on the menu and nothing is really disappointing.
I would recommend the canton fried rice, taipei chicken and pork belly. -
