"Dim sum is best with groups as a weekend brunch. Canton House’s dining room is much bigger than it looks from the outside, but still be prepared to wait for a table. When you get a table, carts carrying steaming dishes get wheeled by your table, just have a peek at what each server is offering. You’ll find popular favorites like steamed pork buns, sesame balls, sweet tofu soup, taro tempura shrimp, Chinese broccoli, turnip cake with pork, tofu skin with pork and mushrooms, and pork ribs." - Field UX
"By now, you’ll sense a pattern that many of the best Buford spots hide in shopping centers or in the corners of buildings. But Canton House stands out on the highway like a shining green-and-yellow monument to great Cantonese food. Inside, the spacious chandeliered dining room is always buzzing with families, friends, and couples. Dim sum is served all day here, but the busier weekend lunch hours improve your chances that favorites like salt and pepper squid will make their rounds on the carts. Other must-orders—like the giant shrimp toast, shui mai, and chive buns—are always on the menu." - nina reeder, jacinta howard, juli horsford
"We’ve been coming to this iconic restaurant on Buford Highway for years, where there’s always a celebratory gathering in their chandelier-lit private space. Canton House provides the full dim sum experience with unique offerings like dessert carts with mango pudding and the only bubble tea cart we know of in the city. The salt and pepper squid is our favorite item here, but it’s not always on rotation. Just make sure you catch a cart that has our other favorites like sponge cakes, pan-fried shrimp, chive buns, and steamed rice rolls filled with shrimp or beef. We always like to get the pan-fried noodles with beef from their regular menu since it’s the tasty, filling finale we need to keep us from cleaning them out of chive buns." - candy hom
"As a longstanding bastion of Cantonese cuisine in Atlanta, Canton House is known for dim sum, but its Cantonese roots really shine in the popular lobster with ginger and green onions, where succulent lobster tails are simply flash-fried in garlic, ginger, and green onions to highlight the lobster's natural flavor in true Cantonese style." - Susie Chow
