Canton Chinese Takeaway in Woking

Lovely humble guy who runs this place 5 star to the lad

Been coming here for years and years and was always our favourite takeaway. Last few times we've noticed how expensive it's gotten but the quality has dropped hugely. Prawn toast on all occasions have been soggy with VERY little prawn. The spring rolls from the mixed starter as ridiculous! Practically no filling at all and just pure filo. Sadly think this will be our last time.

I’ve used this Chinese for years and have always been pleased with it but ordered online tonight for the first time and am incredibly disappointed - receipt processed at 19.02 but still said it was awaiting confirmation from the website 30 mins later. Called to understand if they had received it and and estimated time but I can’t believe the disgraceful service - first they had received it but would be a further hour (no time estimation given prior to or point of order). Saying that they only received it at 19.25 She then went to the kitchen to see where it was and said it was cooked but again couldn’t be guaranteed to be delivered for an hour - so my food would have been sat there for that whole time. Given the option to collect but I’m not well, hence why I ordered online and for delivery. Was told by a different person that it couldn’t be guaranteed in the next 30 minutes- that’s not what I was asking, I just wanted to know if it was cooked and would be sat there for ages then he said ‘do you want your food delivered or not because I can’t spend all this time on the phone to you’. Absolutely disgusted.

Great quick service, ordered and collected within 10 min, food was great and really big portions, good value for money

Ordered take away and was looking forward to it while delivery arrived on time, curry was tasteless should have had the pouched egg on toast that I was also thinking of having

Went to try order some food last week. Sent my daughter in as I waited outside in the car. There were 2 other customers sat waiting. She waited & no one was out front. We continued to wait a short while before a man came out the front to hand over one of the waiting customers order. He didn’t acknowledge my daughter and proceeded to go to the back, leaving her standing waiting again. When he came out with the other customers order, he didn’t at that point apologise for keeping her waiting or even say hello can I help. Just faffed about on whatever it was at the front. Just rude and zero customer service. I appreciate he may of been busy- but it would have been polite to for him to just acknowledge she was there & ask her to bare with him a moment. To just completely ignore her, is just such a poor lack of service. Safe to say, we didn’t wait any longer.

Great food and exceptionally fast collection! Thank you!

Have to say this is the best Chinese I've eaten in a long time. The crispy chicken in garlic and butter was delicious. Will definitely be ordering again. Thanks 👍

By far our favourite take out restaurant. The staff are always a pleasure to speak with and the food is consistently nothing but the best. Highly recommend Canton! A&O

Best Chinese on the west side of Woking! If you are on the east side of Woking, try SO's Kitchen, then decide which you prefer. I love them both!

Have used them a few times now and on all occasions have had no issues. Food is always piping hot and tasty. Reasonable prices £10-£13 per person plus 10% off if you collect and pay in cash. Tiny car park outside but have always managed to get a space every time.

Food was not right, called them and just get told to elsewhere.

Good food, as with most takeaway nowadays a tad expensive, but one of the better ones.

They have not changed their increase in prices on the menu advertised on the window as yet @

I recently ordered chow mein from this Chinese takeaway, and I must say it was a horrendous experience. The dish was far from the delicious chow mein I've had at other places. I regret wasting my money and appetite on this tasteless disaster. First and foremost, the noodles were overcooked and mushy, resembling a sad, gooey mess. It was as if they had been sitting around for hours before being sloppily tossed into the container. The texture was unappetizing and left a strange aftertaste in my mouth. The vegetables in the chow mein were a joke. They seemed to be a mix of wilted, sad-looking pieces that lacked any freshness. I couldn't identify half of them, and the ones I did recognize were either undercooked or overly soggy. It was clear that no care was taken in selecting quality ingredients. To make matters worse, the flavour was utterly bland and lacked any depth or complexity. I couldn't taste any seasoning or spices that are supposed to give chow mein its distinct taste. It was a monotonous, one-dimensional dish that left me craving for something more satisfying. The portion size was another disappointment. For the exorbitant price they charged, I expected a decent serving, but instead, I received a meager amount that left me hungry and unsatisfied. I could have easily prepared a better chow mein at home for a fraction of the cost. Customer service was equally disappointing. When I called to express my disappointment, the person on the other end seemed disinterested and dismissive. They offered no apology or willingness to rectify the situation, which only added to my frustration. In conclusion, I strongly advise against ordering chow mein from this Chinese takeaway. The poor quality noodles, lackluster vegetables, tasteless flavour, stingy portions, and dismal customer service make this place a complete letdown. Save your money and go elsewhere for an authentic and delicious chow mein experience.

Food was amazing and one of the best in woking, it was bang on time for collection and piping hot

This Chinese take away restaurant owner needs to Learn on how to respect the customers, food was even worse. Never visit this place again.

I Order food online line and went to collect the food that was meant to be collected in 15 mins took 30mins, they could find the order dispite showing them proof of payment. The lady on the till was not friendly, she is rude to the customers.

Would give zero stars if it were an option. Have been using canton for years, ordered for my wife & i, upon opening the soup we ordered was almost congealed & the tofu was dried and shrivelled putting us off eating the meal. Took the food back for a refund, the "manger" tried to only refund me the 2 dishes my wife ordered not the whole meal. Didn't apologise at all & tried blaming me for his loss of stock. He eventually & very begrudgingly gave me the refund & told me never to use their service again & I might try and steal from them as that what I had done! Will not be using again!

Food was ok, nothing spectacular, delivery would have been better if they'd actually delivered the right order. Pork is definitely not duck.

The most tasteless jellylike beef curry, I’ve ever had I’ve had Chinese from hundreds of different restaurants. This literally was less flavorful than a can from Lidl. Overpriced, poorly prepared Stale prawn crackers too Went here a few years ago, used to be good I thought maybe I just got unlucky, so I visited three times in a row 3 separate days terrible every time

Definitely gone downhill. Food late, cold and they messed the order up. Won’t be going back.

I recommend people to try their food takeaway.

We had a banquet for 5 and it was all absolutely delicious, as always! Fast delivery with a smile too, thank you Canton ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The food is delicious as well as the price are average. My fav is the chilli fried wings and mixed fried rice. I would recommend!!!

Worst Chinese i have ever had, rice was dry and chicken was chewy

Very good we tried a few in Woking and tried this randomly. We were pleasantly surprised by the portion and taste it I was delicious and we will tey it again tonight. Will update if good might become our local Chinese 🤤 Update: had it twice it’s delicious !!

Is this place under new management? We have used the Canton for years and it has always been amazing. However, we have ordered twice in the last 6 weeks and will not be using again. The food is definitely from a different supplier and not up to the previous standard. Some of the dishes we have had have been cold and greasy which we have never experienced here before. Very disappointing.

Have used previously but last night ordered a box of food for me and my mum. Ribs and chicken satay were very weird and chewy and couldnt eat the rest as had not even half a plate and ended up being violently sick mymum got terrible diarrhoea. Called yo make comments they were rude yold me it wasnt there food will be contacting trading standards

Fast service, reasonable prices and good quality food with a wide ranging menu and generous portion sizes. One of the better Chinese takeaways in Woking and definitely worth a visit. The coronavirus precautions - an impressively constructed screen barricade between customers and staff - seem to be a bit on the heavy side and remind me of a 1980s bank.

We have used Canton for years now. Originally picked up but last few years delivery. Has the business changed hands? Nothing was the same. Prawn toast soggy and overcooked. Seaweeds were ok. Chicken in salt and garlic were not good. Hardly any onion or spring onion and wonton soup was tasteless. We are not returning unfortunately.

Received our order and specifically asked for no chilli. But the beef was definitely cooked in chilli rang and asked for another one without chilli and it came exactly the same as the first one. Does this restaurant understand allergies? They were not bothered they could kill someone with allergies please be careful when ordering here if you have allergies they simply do not give a damn

Simply the best Chinese take away in the area Having tried all the take always offering Chinese food in the area within 8km’s this is simply the best. Really good tasty cooking and excellent value. Their Peking style duck with pancakes yummy. Tried several dishes for the family and all declared fab. Thoroughly recommended.

I have visited the canton Restaurant for 20 years. On my last visit I ordered a chicken chow mein. The food had sand in it and was crunchy on the teeth, i can only think this is a food hygeine issue. I threw the food away and will not be returning to the Canton. Very disapointed Chuan Tang

Pleasant staff, love this place.

每當我們想起香港的味道，都會到來買外賣回 家，他們的檸檬雞和咕嚕肉，都是我們每次會點的食物。這裡的員也很親切，所以我們經常都會回來光顧。

hey this is your neighbour i came across your shop whilst finding places with my older brother (its alina) im happy youre my neighbour as you are very kind! hope you remember me. we are the ones who are muslim/south asian :) - food looks very tasty im only 12 but hopefully i can come and enjoy food here one day again

I have lived in my flat in St.John's for a good number of years, i have tried many Chinese restaurants and they have been average at best. That is until i tried this place, food was excellent, i had the ribs with salt and chilli, normal pancake rolls which were divine and chicken with mixed vegetables and egg fried rice. All very tasty. Very very impressed. .

Amazing chinese. Always fast and polite, highly recommended.

I’ve been coming here for years and I love the food. The people are amazing and I have never had a problem with food coming quickly or my order not being completed properly. The ribs are nice, the prawn toast is always crispy, the rice is really nice and and the mushrooms and pork is always really nicely cooked and I love the sauce. The duck and pancakes are always crispy and the sauce tastes amazing. Sometimes there are not enough pancakes but I always keep some spares at home though so it’s fine.

Best Chinese around wouldn't go anywhere else

Quick service and friendly staff. Always my first choice for Chinese takeaway.

Quick service & reasonably good quality of food. Front desk manned by friendly people.

We will not use them again. Three times they have forgotten to send something we ordered- twice they forgot egg fried rice and today they forgot the sweet and sour sauce. The food was greasy, salty and very bland. Don’t waste your money.

Not Good. Awful food, Tasteless.

Great service, tasty food and good sized portions.

They were closed for a while during lockdown and we really didn’t like the other 2 places in the are that we tried. They opened up again and we just had a takeaway and it was so good! Best chi see takeaway ever! And you get a really good price for amazing quality.

I love the food from here always fresh, great portion size, delivery always quick - fantastiv value for money. Always friendly.

We have lived in Knaphill for most of my adult life and Canton in the last 10 years has been our firm favourite. Food, service and friendliness has always been excellent and I would thoroughly recommend using them.

Food great ordered several times no problem phoned order with 3 hours notice today to be told they wont deliver to us if they are busy what's that all about very disappointed

Very impressed this year Canton Chiese knaphill still keep full 5 star Hygiene again. Welldone ....

Delicious Singapore fried noodles, full of flavour and just the right texture. Friendly staff and very good value.

Been going here for 26 years, never had a complaint. Staff are like family, food is always great and always in awe of the speed at which the food is cooked and delivered. The best.

Great food, great service been my first choice for years

Disappointed. Had no flavour. Chewy not crispy beef. Ribs not appetising at all, threw away, had no meat on them just covered in fat. Shame.

Not that great . 2 stars. Not 4. Had 1 piece of chicken, in my box of chicken chowmein. The ribs were all fat no meat. Will never eat here again

Great customer service...Food really tasty..good price

Ordered from overseas as a birthday meal for the father in law - top customer service, food arrived fast, hot and tasted absolutely fantastic just as it has done since I first visited nearly 20 years ago! Thanks again Canton - 5 stars all the way from Canada

Having lived locally for 10 years, this takeaway always delivered fantastic food, and great service. Our son, now 10 has always loved going in there and ordering his favourite dishes, talking to his favourite lady and now as we are moving away, his last request was one more meal from Canton. We will miss the warm friendly greetings we always get, and will ensure if we’re passing we will pop in to say hello - and get a some delicious food

Really excellent food produced at mind-boggling speed by pleasant people. Who could ask for more?

Staff friendly & efficient, food absolutely fantastic.

Excellent customer service. Fresh good food. Huge quantity and at the same time good quality. Delivery was fast and good mannered driver too. All the best

Great customer service and great food

I had some friends staying unexpectedly and needed to come up with a tasty dinner quickly. I ordered a take away from Canton and was blown away. Quick service and great tasting food with generous portions. All round great value and will use again.

A very good and helpful Chinese takeaway. The food is hot, and they change things to your liking

So pleased I stumbled on this place. My Chinese experiences in the Woking area until this find has not been pleasant. I was beginning to think I had to go to London if I wanted a decent Chinese takeaway. The food here is fresh and tasty, the lady who takes the orders is very cheerful. This shop is keeping the locals happy as its busy most nights. Keep up the good work, don't change.

Had an amazing experience, very rich taste of real Cantonese. Some spicy dishes are awesome and menu have a wide variety. There delivery is quick and friendly

Friendly staff and delicious food everytime 😊

Big Chinese food fan so have tried many. Used to go to Canton year ago but fell out of love with it as the quality dropped off.Happy to report its just as good as it used to be now having recently had 2 Chinese takeaways from them in the last month! Highly recommended!

First time order due to a reccomendation. Was really disappointed. Maybe we just chose the wrong stuff but what we did choose was very dry. Ribs deep fried and dry. Prawn toast not the best had a weird old taste. Seaweed had soo much sugar in we couldnt eat it. Spring role was lovely the highlight of the mixed starters. Unfortunately main meal didn't hit the spot...all quite dry. Shame as the service was great from a takeaway point of view just not the food on this occasion.

Just ordered from here for the first time after moving into area and was very impressed. The food was quickly prepared and was very tasty. Although an error was made during ordering they were happy to make up a fresh dish. Will definitely be getting more food from here soon!

My favourite Chinese takeaway for the last 15 years. Good good. Reasonable prices and friendly staff.

poor service, food was a disgrace

The food is 4 star rating love it

Best Chinese takeaway in the Knaphill area. Always good.

Delicious taste and quantity is good too.

Great staff, very accommodating and the food is tasty and authentic. Especially the Special Fried Rice and chow mein noodles.

The Canton is our first choice for a Chinese take away meal when we are in the area. The food is quickly prepared, well cooked and tasty. The huge menu is reasonably priced and offers a very wide choice.

I travel A lot for the love of food, I can say so far best Chinese food I had experienced in surrey. Variety range of menu with swift deleivery system. Overall simply wow experience. Keep it up 👍

Horrible food, badly prepared, poor quality and been Ill since eating the food, it only has a 3 star food safety rating so that may be why, i won't be eating here ever again

Horrible staff, disgusting customer service

Brilliant food. Amazing sized portions and the staff always friendly and helpful

Excellent food freshly cooked and very reasonable prices. Very efficient service, highly recommended

Used this takeaway recently, very pleased with their services and the food is delicious! Definitely go back. 👍👍👍

Delicious food! Very fast delivery! Asked for the menu, but was told that they have a Facebook page where I can see so good for lazy ones like me! :) Will order again :)

Lovely food, full of flavour and delivered still piping hot.

Great food prompt service how anyone can say food bland

'A Google User' should stick to the other, MSG loving, Chinese takeaways in the area as this is by far the best!

The food is quite possibly best chinese take away l‘ve in this area.....

Merely so-so Chinese takeaway fare; an improvement on the Chop Suey House, but that's not hard.
