Canton Chinese Food
If you find yourself in Moreno Valley, California, and are craving authentic Chinese cuisine, look no further than Canton Chinese Food. Located at 12625 Frederick St #I7, this gem has been a beloved staple for over two decades, serving up dishes that tantalize your taste buds and embrace the rich flavors of Chinese culinary traditions.
Canton Chinese Food specializes in a delightful array of favorites, elevating standard fare into a vibrant feast. Kick off your meal with their crispy, golden Cream Cheese Wonton ($5.99), perfectly fried to a luscious crunch. For something heartier, indulge in their Kung Pao Chicken or Orange Chicken, both bursting with the ideal blend of savory, sweet, and mildly spicy notes, making each bite a flavor-packed journey. Even the simple comforts of fried rice turn into something extraordinary here, especially their Shrimp Fried Rice ($12.49) – a deliciously decadent dish adorned with succulent shrimp and veggies that bring freshness to each forkful.
With a spacious yet cozy dining atmosphere, Canton Chinese Food welcomes family gatherings and solo diners alike. A visit is often punctuated by the hustle and bustle of eager patrons, as locals know this place is where authenticity meets speed. Customers rave about the Chow Mein that stands out for not being overly oily – a vital quality amid some rougher competitors. With an impressive 10/10 rating from diners like Hailie Dodson, you can be assured that your experience will be met with not only quick service but an environment where the team takes pride in their craft.
However, the restaurant has seen some changes, leading to varying experiences. As Amy Leang noted in her review, there seems to be a shift in taste that may signal new management. Yet, Mar Batiste, a loyal supporter for 20 years, assures us that the quality remains excellent overall. This mix of historical continuity and the potential for new culinary interpretations makes each visit a unique adventure.
Whether you're a Moreno Valley local or just passing through, Canton Chinese Food is a dining destination that deserves a spot on your itinerary. Bring your friends, savor the variety, and explore what makes Chinese cuisine a beloved choice for food lovers everywhere.
