Canton Seafood Celebrates With Specials

Just in time for Mother’s Day and graduation season, Canton Seafood Restaurant introduces new party menus and is offering a variety of one-year anniversary specials.

The Chinese eatery specializing in authentic Cantonese-style dishes turns one this week, and in celebration will offer complimentary soup (egg drop soup or seaweed soup) with its lunch and late-night specials. Also, two of its signature dishes are being offered at a special price: Deep Fried Flounder with seasoning herbs regularly priced at $15.99 is now $9.99, and House Crispy Chicken regularly $15.99 is now $4.99 (half).

“Our food is real Cantonese-style, not chop suey,” says manager Edwin Chen. “We serve real Chinese food. A lot of Chinese people come and say our food is the best Chinese food here. Also, we give big portions, and our food is reasonably priced.”

There also are some local favorites on the menu, such as Pork Chop with Salt and Pepper ($10.99) that is pleasantly juicy inside and perfectly crispy on the outside.

The lunch and late-night special menu features 50 different plates, including the very filling Crispy Gau Gee or Soft Gau Gee Mein ($6.99), which has broccoli, Chinese cabbage, carrot, mushroom, shrimp, chicken, pork, char siu, water chestnut and house special sauce, and comes with four pieces of crispy gau gee. Also a must-try is Combination Plate ($7.99), which consists of soup, choi sum with oyster sauce, two crispy won ton, and choice of house special sauce ginger and onion lo mein, gon lo mein or Young Chow Fried Rice.

Lunch specials are available from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the late-night specials from 9 p.m. to midnight, and prices range from $5.99 to $7.99.

There are five different party menus to choose from, priced between $99 and $388. All menu items, specials and party packages are available for dine-in and takeout. And coming soon is dim sum!

Located on Keeaumoku Street near Ala Moana, Canton Seafood Restaurant offers free parking behind the restaurant, and after 5:30 p.m. at neighboring Maui Divers Jewelry and Bank of Hawaii.
