The food and service were perfect. We got our food quickly and it was hot and delicious. The servers were great. The restaurant is dated, but it serves the purpose just fine. The prices were very reasonable and we left full with another meal's worth in to go boxes.

I really liked the Mongolian beef. The portions are so big, you will not go away hungry. The service is definitely 5stars ! Lin and YE was two wonderful host and waiters. I will definitely be back here again.

Absolutely LOVE this place. Hands down the best chinese food in Salem especially when it comes to quality and service. The food is incredibly flavorful. I enjoy that they have combination plates as an option as it is a great way to get some variety for a wonderful cost! If I could give more than 5 stars I would

We came in on a Sunday right after they opened. We were the only customers when we arrived. Excellent food, amd service We had Happy family, lo mein teriyaki chicken, broccoli beef, and orange chicken. All excellent quality. The orange chicken isn't the exceptionally sweet intensely orange chicken. But quality is very good. Maybe for a child it won't be quite what they were hoping. Overall, we highly recommend this restaurant

Best BBQ pork I have had to this day. shrimp was not overcooked.excellent pork fried rice and almond chicken chow mein. Egg flower soup was good also.

Discovered this spectacular restaurant at the start of the pandemic and it's been our favorite Chinese food ever since. The Chicken fried rice is delicious and has bean sprouts in it 😋 Their chicken chow mein is great and has the biggest pieces of chicken. We have NEVER been disappointed with any of the dishes we've ordered from John's Chinese restaurant!!🤤😋

Went for the lunch special specials. Wife got the daily special (sweet sour shrimp, pork chow mein, pork fried rice) and i got the conbo 4 (see menue photos). Restaurant had 10 to 12 tables full. Our order was taken quickly, hot tea came out right away. Moments later, our food arrived. Good quantity for the price and was filling. The menue items were fresh, tasty, and did not disappoint.Place was clean and the servers were friendly even though they were clearly busy. Upon my request, they brought out hot oil and chilie paste. They do have saracha. Personal preference though for golden crown chow mein instead(less celery). Oh, the fortune cookies are fantastic, something to look forward to as we finished the pot of tea. Overall, lunch was very good and will go back again.

Always have great Chinese food! We never get a bad entrée from here. The prices are good and the service is great..

Not Chinese restaurant anymore? No signs that it’s 21+ the lady was very rude. When we walked in we thought she was another customer because she was sitting at the bar on her phone. Overall wasn’t a good atmosphere.

Canton Garden was absolutely delicious. We got the family dinner and it could easily feed four for a very fair price. Our server was pleasant, kind, quick, and very professional with a smile on her face and a sense of humor. She treated us with exceptional 5⭐ service the moment we walked in. We will 100% be back

I have driven past here almost daily for several years and finally decided to give them a try for lunch the other day. I was not disappointed! I was seated right away and offered tea. Everything came out quickly and was hot. The portion sizes are on par with every other Chinese restaurant I’ve gone to, but the chow mein is the best I’ve had! I am a garlic lover, and I could see the minced garlic in the vegetables. The breading on the sweet and sour pork was perfectly done, though I would have liked more of the sauce (personal preference, my husband would have thought it was just right). Prices are reasonable, and I will definitely be back. I’m disappointed I haven’t tried them sooner!

The owner is very hospitable. I thought our orders will take long because they were short staffed but we got it pretty fast! And food is great! Did not disappoint!

Food isn't terrible, Like I don't think it will kill you if you eat it. Otherwise it's very lackluster. Safeway quality chinese food. The pan fried noodles were good, the fried chicken was a 3, but even the sweet and sour sauce was watered down. The kungpow chicken and the cashew chicken were soup kitchen level entrees.

Some of worst chinese food I've had. Almost completely flavorless, yet still burned my tongue. One vegetarian option on the lunch menu, no veg soups. The spring roll was bland, and the duck sauce to go with is was the worst I've ever had. The meal was only bearable once I basically drowned it in chili oil and soy sauce.

It’s still so hard to rate Chinese food after eating at Kwan’s for so many years, but China Gourmet is a wonderful hidden gem in north central Salem. The service is great and the restaurant is cozy yet small. The food is delicious and flavorful and was fresh and hot. Pot Stickers were amazing. So was the Kung Poa Chicken and the Garlic Sauce Chicken. BBQ Pork fried rice was as expected and we will try a different fried rice next time.

I've been coming to this great little place since about 2014. The flavor and the tastes have not changed. The first time I came I pulled into the parking lot and thought to myself. I don't know if I want to stay, but I am so glad I did. I've eaten a lot of Chinese food all over the place and I have to say that when I come to Salem this is the only place I will eat if I'm hungry for Chinese. The staff are very friendly. The outside doesn't look like much, but inside is a very warm and inviting atmosphere. Nice tables. Nice lighting chopsticks on the table and the food is exceptional the sauces are thick and have loads of flavor. Also the portions are huge. The vegetables here are always fresh, never frozen. I don't believe I've ever had anything here that I didn't absolutely love. As you can tell by the photos it's always done hot and fresh and if you can't eat it all ,not a problem Take it home and warm it up later. It'll be just as good. Most everyone that we see there usually takes home a box... I usually get beef and something. The beef is always tender never cuts with a fork and as I said the vegetables are crisp and very good. If you're in Salem or close and you want to eat some of the best Chinese food, stop into China gourmet...

The food is always delicious. The menu is huge. Anything you could want, they have on there. Everyone is super friendly. The prices are very reasonable.

Today we decided to try this restaurant. We were so excited for good Chinese food. However our experience was so incredibly disappointing. The Orange Chicken came dry with the sauce on the side. The chicken was over cooked and so crispy you could barely chew it, even when mixed with the sauce. The fried pork rice was burned and tasted burnt as well. The crab wontons were so hard and chewy that we couldn't even eat them. The chicken Lo' Mein was ok. The egg rolls tasted off, like they would make you ill if you kept eating it. We spent over $80 and ended up throwing most of it away. So disappointing. I had hoped for really great food. I don't think we will ever eat here again.

This was our first time here and we were very impressed. It was very clean and well maintained and the waitress was very polite and helpful. We came in right before dinner time, and our food was at our table within minutes after we ordered. The food tasted so fresh and flavorful you can tell they care about the customer's experience. It's an instant favorite for us, and we can't wait to go back.

Today we had dinner at this restaurant. Incredibly delicious food, a wonderful combination of taste in each dish. Got a lot of pleasure from dinner in this place. All very tasty, large portions, reasonable price. I would like to mention the polite and caring staff. Thanks a lot.

Nice place kinda big building but cozy booths with lots of room , good friendly service, we went for lunch and ordered the lunch specials so the plates were smaller so were the servings but the food was good the main course mongolian beef was really good but not spicey at all the pork fried rice was a little spongy but tasted good, for the price it was a ok meal with no big complaints . Not too sure if I'll be back with so many other restuants close by but you never know.

Food was just average for a Chinese restaurant sweet and sour pork was dry and steam rice was not steamed lol best thing was the hot tea the pork fried rice was bland not worth $40 never going back it's a shame because I love Asian cuisine

Placed order over the phone with a friendly man and paid for it Order was ready when promised Good portion sizes Everything was delicious Ordered hunan beef, vegetable lo mien, sweet & sour pork, fried rice, and steamed rice 🍚 Definitely will visit again!

Food was average, just like every other Chinese restaurant. rice was bland , pork fried rice was dry to and food was ok not worth $40 not going back I'm very disappointed because I love some good Asian food
