Monstrous clientele and horrifying«buffet». Thought it was Halloween in January when I walked in. Would have left but thought I would give the food a fair shake. But the horrible food matched the rest of this joint. Very unclean dining room. Did not even dare to check out the bathroom. The only saving grace is the extremely low price.

Finally stopped by to fill up on chinese food. This place is incredibly small-the dining area and buffet area. Everything seemed cramped. The buffet area is only one small island with about 10 – 12 dishes. Dishes include your normal«americanized chinese» such as fried rice noodles beef brocoli fried chicken egg rolls kung pao chicken orange chicken and a few others. The good: Plenty of food despite the small size. Kitchen is always refilling quickly Cheap(8.50 a box packed!!!) The bad: VERYSMALL. enough said. Some dishes are very oily, and you can tell that they use a lot of msg overall, you come here not for the quality of the food or to try new things, but to feast on your regular chinese food. I will be back!

If Unilocal gave me the option to review the service & the food in the same review I would give the food 3 stars and the service NONE. The reason I’m giving the service ZEROSTARS is because during My last visit there I decided to grab a bottle of ginger ale from the refrigerator next to the counter. The server went to my table and asked me if I would like a cup with ice for my drink and I said sure. Now keep in mind that it is a bottled drink, meaning if I wanted a refill I would have to pay for a whole other bottle of ginger ale(1.75). So instead of having to buy another bottle of soda I decided to settle for water. When the same server came to clear out the plates on the table i asked her if I could please have a cup of water. She then proceeded to ask me «you want a cup of water”(in very broken English). I said yes and she then angrily turned to go get me a cup of water and returned by slamming it onto the table. Now I have been to restaurants with rude waiters and servers but NEVER have I ever been slammed a cup of water like that. But me and my boyfriend finished our meal went up to pay and the same server then charged my card. As I went to sign the receipt she had the audacity to loudly scream«NOTIP?! YOUCHEAPYOUCHEAP, NEXTTIMENOWATERFORYOU»… Are you kidding me ?! The only reason I’ll ever be back is because my boyfriend seems to like the place for some reason. Canton delight is basically a mini buffet that has all the main Chinese food choices one would normally get at a regular buffet. The food is surprisingly not bad at all. Although some of it kind of too greasy for my liking

A tiny, moderately dingy Chinese American restaurant. Think Chinese take out(9 – 10 options) buffet style, but in my opinion, slightly worse in flavor and texture. The white rice was pretty dry, the meats are barely warm… it was just tough to enjoy the meal and I felt bad for bringing my very hungry boyfriend here. Food is food, but this place could do a lot better.

Haven’t been here in years! They were changing/cleaning the food station when I arrived. After waiting a few minutes for that I was asking the older gentlemen what all the different meats were and he wasn’t very pleasant. He was rude when telling me the different foods. When I left he asked me to tip at a buffet… and cursed me in his language lol

I love this buffet. The Chinese food is definitely American style. The number of items on the buffet is not the largest, but it is always so tasty. The best deal is to order the take out box and over fill it so the lid barely closes — for only $ 8 lunch, $ 9 dinner(after 3pm). My favorite item is the Orange Chicken, but also like the Kung Pow chicken with peanuts. The green beans are also great. I also like that the buffet includes fried chicken and french fries as another option. You may have to wait for an item to be replenished on the buffet, but they are quick to resupply. The atmosphere is NOT why I come here, it is a dive. The service is friendly and quick. It really is like«eating in someone elses home kitchen». I’ll be back regularly to load up to satisfy my craving for Chinese food American style.

For a small quick and easy buffet, this place will get the job done. Quantity over quality for sure. Used to come in here and put down plates like a madman.

Being the fried chicken connoisseur I am, I’m always on the lookout for claims about delicious fried chicken. Finally gave in to the curiosity that developed from reading some of the other reviews. I’m about to put the hurting on some fried chicken, ear to ear. Pull up, walk in. Didn’t have jumbo chicken wings, all I saw was drumsticks, what a bummer. So I get it to go. Pile on some Chinese food and drumsticks. Might as well check out all of the food since there were no wings. Average, nothing unforgettable. Definitely not the best fried chicken I’ve had in the area. I wouldn’t rank it in the top five places for fried chicken in the area. I wish I could have found the same chicken the other reviewers were going on about, but it wasn’t there. Maybe the great reviews about the fried chicken are from the weekday lunch buffet. Maybe it’s different cooks on the weekend night shifts. Maybe the other reviewers just have never experienced good fried chicken yet. I will definitely stay with my go to spot for jumbo chicken wings. If anyone else has a recommendation for delicious fried chicken I would like to know where it’s served.

Best chicken wings in the area. I know people that come down from pg county and baltimore county to eat just the wings. The buffet is small but the selection is tasty and the price can’t be beat. Seating is limited.

My cousin recommended this place so we came to check it out. The atmosphere is ok but that’s not why you come here. The food is so delicious. The food is all you can eat for really cheap and the food is off the hook. They average 8 – 10 different dishes but they are all Very delicious.

Been going here since I was a kid. Can’t beat $ 8 for a decent lunch. Best fried chicken around. I won’t go for the atmosphere, but carryout is great.

I gave this place a shot over my usual, I was underwhelmed. I tried the Singapore Show Mei Fun & Shrimp in Garlic Sauce. Both were marked«hot & spicy» neither was, so I was a bit disappointed. I ordered carry out, kind of glad because it did look a bit run down. I have some friends who swear by the buffet though, but you know guys, a huge to go container for $ 8($ 10 if you can’t close it) and they are happy. Not sure I will go back unless something happens usual Chinese take-out place.

This is one of my favorite local spots. Their food is exactly what you’re looking for when you want Chinese and their prices make it that much better. They offer a wide range of classic American-Chinese dishes and a fantastic dinner buffet for an unbeatable price. The staff is very enthusiastic and friendly. After only a few orders they remembered me by name. I highly recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for solid Chinese food for a good price with less than a 15min wait.

It’s a small place that is super cheap. I usually come here for lunch due to the fact that the food is always fresh and the price is cheap.

This is a mom and pop Chinese restaurant. The food is well seasoned and the portions are good. The buffet is small, yet I go here for the chicken wings. The price is reasonable. This is not a fancy restaurant and it is an old style restaurant, but if you want good tasting food without emptying your pocket, this is the place to go.

Canton Delight is really one of a kind! From the $ 7 lunch buffet to the $ 8 dinner buffet, you cannot go wrong whether you come in with an empty stomach at noon or at night. Yep, I said it right the first time! SEVEN and EIGHT dollar BUFFETS, how can you beat that?! The prices already appear beyond reasonable on paper. But only after you’ve experienced the superb tastes of their dishes will you truly appreciate the simplicity yet exquisiteness of Chinese carry-out. Let’s talk about the setting. The first time I step foot into Canton Delight, I was somewhat skeptical seeing that the place was rather modest in size. The restaurant certainly won’t wow you with its aesthetics or ambiance. However, it was clean and sanitary and most definitely one of the cleaner Chinese restaurants I’ve eaten at. Food-wise, while the looks of the dishes may be conservative, the taste is far from it. At first look, the dishes look just like any other carry-out dish. That quickly changes as soon as one takes a bite of the awe-inspiring orange chicken, scrumptious shrimp platter, or addictive chicken wings(considered a favorite amongst customers). My friend, a lover of chicken, single-handedly puts the owners at risk of bankruptcy each time he makes an appearance at the restaurant with the number of chicken wings he devours in one go. The owners and employees always make me feel like I’m at home with their terrific customer service and overall friendliness. Pros: Price, food, friendly vibe, chicken wings! Cons: Can be crowded at times, assortment of dishes can be higher Highly recommended whether you’re from the area or from out of town just visiting. Gourmet-level dishes for carry-out prices. In a nutshell, prices lure the customers but the dishes make us stay.

Decided to check this place out during lunch time. It’s mostly Americanized Chinese food, so if that’s what you are looking for, it’s decent. They also have a buffet, which I haven’t tried, but it was small, and nothing spectacular. It wasn’t busy when I went there, but it was a small little place. The food was okay, it did really fill me up, but it also put me nearly to sleep. I’ve had better Chinese carryout, but this was okay.
