Don't not buy their take-outs on Chowbus!!!!!!!! They charged a lot more, but they put a lot less!!!! Below they charged for 22.05 on the menu for 2 picked meet. That apps did not allow to show comments or reviews!!!! This is ridiculously expensive and so cheating.
We have been going to Kantin for 20 years. The food is always fabulous and the new owners are incredibly kind and always ask about our kids when we sneak away for lunch. Definitely recommend them!
Their hours on Google are wrong. It says they close at 4pm, but they were open at 5pm when I went.I has their Peking duck buns, pork with string beans, and spicy salted fish with a side of rice. Peking duck buns and pork with string beans were me and my fiancé's favorite. The fish wasn't bad- the crispiness was there but it wasn't salted. The rice was lacking something. I can't put my finger on what it's missing, but it was a little dry.
$29 for "super chili fried rice", egg rolls, and a 12oz canned soda... The entre was super plain and bland. I hope I was just unlucky with how flavorless it was.
It’s rare to find authentic Cantonese food outside of Chinatown - this place is a gem. Their food is delicious and reminds me of HK, right down to the fresh bbq and roast pork; Brighton-Allston is extremely lucky to have a place that serves it traditionally, freshly cut to order. If you’re coming here looking for General Tso’s, this ain’t it - but if you’re looking for legit Cantonese food, Kantin’s got it.
Ordered General Gao's chicken and orange chicken, both turned out very sweet. The chicken was very hard to chew with wierd smell to the sauce, kinda old I guess.
for $25.00 3 meat combo... you get NO rice. just a layer of cabbage.. meats were very dry. salty. and not meaty at all. for $25.00 I shouldn't have to request rice. disappointing...
I ordered a 双拼(duck + pork) to take away. The portion is quite small. The cabbage at the botton was basically boiled in water without extra taste. The taste was ok.
Extremely slow, and doesn't give out utensils unless you specifically ask, by the item. There are three small orders ahead of me and I waited for about 30mins. All I ordered was a two combo over rice.The food is mediocre except for its price, which is way over average.
Rotisserie is tasty but extremely overpriced, and reluctant to give out utensils. For $20 this is what I got: four pieces of meat for three kinds, while some of which barely has any meat on them.They also don’t include utensils or napkins with the food. You’ll have to ask them for each item specifically, like “can I have some utensils?” (Comes only a chopstick) “And a spoon please...” and a moment later while eating, you’ll realize that you’re missing napkins too...Comparatively, the other vendor at this food court sells the same size lunch for $13 with a soup. So, just FYI :)
