About this business

Editorial fromWhile much of the extensive menu reprises the standards of Chinese-American fare, other dishes clearly depart from this norm, staying closer to the Cantonese tradition. There's a separate page of specials where one can find such…

The food is fantastic. – This is ethnic Chinese food at its best for the US. This isn't Americanized Chinese - its the real thing. Hong Kong style Won Ton Soup, Straw vegetables, Snow Pea Leaves, Salt & Pepper Squid - in my opinion their best dishes. Very tasty food - if you can bring someone with you that knows the menu, or is from China, you will enjoy the dining experience that much more. The prices during lunch are outstanding. The owner's name is kathy - tell her Don sent you.

Best in the City As an Asian American, I've eaten at my share of good Chinese restaraunts. In the tradition of Pung Mie comes Canton Cooks, a tasty place located on the Sandy Springs exit off i-285 (East if you're coming from 75, West if you're coming from Gwinnett, 400 and 85).

Love this place – I have eaten here for lunch and dinner and had a great experience each time. Excellent General Tso's Chicken and Shrimp Fried Rice. This is not your run of the mill, neighborhood Chinese restaurant. The food is good and of high quality. I think it's a bit expensive, but worth it.

Should be rated higher! – I cannot believe that Canton Cooks is not rated higher in the Best of Citysearch poll. This is unequivocally the best and most authentic chinese restaurant in Atlanta. Portions are generous and the food is always consistent. Canton Cooks has been recognised as one of the best chinese restaurants in the South! It should be ranked higher in the citysearch poll.

Authentic Chinese! – As soon as you walk into the door you know the food has to be authentic when you hear Cantonese as the predominate languege spoken by most patrons and once you see and taste the food you almost feel like you've magically been transported to Hong Kong. Cantonese style seafood dishes are the specialties at Canton Cooks. The restaurant is small and often crowded, but the food speaks for itself. Latenighters can get their Chow Fun fix since Canton Cooks is open until 2 AM!

Best Chinese in the ATL! – I cannot believe this place is not nominated for best Chinese Restaurant in the 2004 Best of Citysearch poll. This is by far one of the best Cantonese Style Restaurants in the entire South. The food is VERY authentic.

The Best Cantonese in Atlanta – When we heard the former chef of China Cooks had opened Canton Cooks, we had to check it out. We took friends from Hong Kong and they were very impressed with the calibre of the food. This is by far the best Cantonese cuisine in Atlanta. The lobster with Ginger and scallions is superb. I always order the Pacific Clams with seasonal Veggies. The clams are giant and juicy, full of flavor. For latenighters you have to get the Chow Fun; it is the best I have had outside of Hong Kong: I am serious!
