So, so underrated. I've been coming to New Canton for years, the location is extremely unsuspecting and located next to a gun shop, so from initial impressions, you wouldn't expect the kind of fresh, tasty food hidden within.
They also do delivery which is definitely our vice from time to time.
I've tried many things on the menu, but I'd like to just point out some of my favorite dishes. First, you need to understand the difference between breaded chicken and just plain chicken, there are varying dishes here that uses one or the other, some very successful, some less so. I will say that the crispiness of stuff like their sesame chicken or general tsos is great when eaten on the spot, they usually fresh fry alot of their food, so when it comes out, it's fresh, crispy and delicious.
If you get delivery, don't get the breaded chicken. It's just a bad idea as it gets soggy just purely due to its composition. The plain chicken dishes are also very good, albeit slightly lacking in the meat department. No matter, you can ask for additional meat and they'll ask you how much more you'd like to pay, which makes it very easy for you to get a larger serving of one of their dishes for two people.
My favourites are definitely the garlic chicken and kung pao, delicious, flavorful sauces that doesn't taste EXTREMELY sweet, like alot of places do - you can't completely forgo the sweetness though, as it's all american asian food. You can also ask for varying spice levels, but from what I've seen, the food here doesn't really get very spicy.
The service can be weird at times, I think it's gotten better over the years, but it has never bothered me. It seems to bother some people because it's not your typical white glove treatment in most modern establishments, but they get the job done. Also, the difference in prices online is not their fault (based on other reviews), it's really just a site that they can't get access to to change the information.
The prices are low, especially if you don't get a full serving dish each, both me and my husband are huge eaters, and a single meal is more than enough to fill us up. They fry their cheese wontons TO ORDER, which doesn't sound like much, but when compared to other chinese places, you really can't quite beat the texture and molteny goodness of freshly fried wontons. The hot and sour is also great - be sure to ask for some white pepper as it goes so well together!
Overall, you can judge this based on unrealistically high standards, but it's a small, unsuspecting chinese food place that's modest and fresh. You can't ask for more especially for their price point. Highly recommend. -

Definitely down a few pegs. Chicken was chewy and I found a hair!! waitress is rude and screwed up my order. As I was sitting I asked for the chicken broccoli dinner.. she asked what to drink I said Diet Coke!. She brought me no soup no egg roll and a regular coke. I asked if I was getting soup? She argued with me about my order. I know what I ordered.. they fixed it but the waitress still acted rudely towards me. 2 stars.. hopefully next time I'll have one of the waitresses that are good and food that isn't over cooked garbage. I literally ate less than half the meal!! $16.42 for diner and a Diet Coke? Heck no.. this is the very first time in years I've left a zero tip.. so disapointed
It was good - not greasy the prices were higher than average but the food was cleaner.. far better prepared than anything else I've had in Colorado. The place is clean. The waitresses all speak perfect native born English so there's no confusion on what I'm ordering. The soup was hot the portions were huge. My gf and I could not finish either plate and could easily have split one portion.
Well done! It took two years but I have my Chinese food place.
God bless -

Honestly I was really hopeful for this place and drove 20 minutes from home just to try it because I haven't found a sit down Chinese place here in CO that serves good General Tso (minimal breading, crispy, white meat) and Pork Fried Rice...so I came and I ordered Sesame Chicken (waitress said it's equivalent to General Tso just a different sauce) and Pork Fried Rice...and it was just a total let down. So sad. 2 stars since it was a nice clean ambience and fast service and crispy fortune cookie. I also ordered Jasmine tea expecting it to be flavorful like the one at Tea Garden, but it honestly tasted like the free tea most Chinese places give you except here I had to pay a $1. Ugh. My search for a decent sit down Chinese restaurant nearby continues. And FYI the Pork Fried Rice (entree) is basically the same as the fried rice that comes with your protein entree except it has egg and the BBQ pork...not impressed :( $24 to take home rice that I will be fixing up at home. Can someone please comment and let me know what places are good around here
