Always looking to provide savings to its customers, Canton Family Restaurant offers 8 lunch combo meals to choose from between 11:00AM to 2:30 PM. Discounts are offered to the restaurant’s loyal customers during Chinese New Year and the anniversary of the restaurant’s opening.
Evident to all those who dine in the restaurant is the amazing hospitality that the staff and chefs are willing to provide. The menu offers dishes to suit every palate and diet by customizing the dishes to better suit your desires.
One thing apparent to all those who enter the restaurant is the attention that is paid to sanitation. To Chan, sanitation is as important as the taste of the dishes and the service. Every nook and cranny of the restaurant is cleaned daily and the refrigeration systems are monitored to ensure that food is always stored at the proper temperature. “I believe that sanitation plays a huge role in service. Customers want to dine in a clean environment. Otherwise, if the restaurant is unsanitary, even the most attentive service in the world would not make the experience a positive one,” Chan says.
Striving to provide patrons with the best dining experience possible, Chan has spent a lot of time training the staff in how to provide exceptional service. This is reflected in how the staff greets every customer coming in and then continues to provide attentive service to them throughout their meals. At Canton Family Restaurant, everyone is treated like a VIP.
Humble Beginnings
Chan arrived in
Happy with his decision, he would later decide to stay in the restaurant industry. But, running a restaurant is not as easy as it sounds, especially in the beginning. The early years of the restaurant were marked with long tiring days and the occasional set back. But, Chan powered through the challenges with the help of his family. Helping to take care of some of the load, Chan’s wife and other relatives have done a lot over the years to help keep Canton Family Restaurant running on all cylinders. Their hard work paid off and Canton Family Restaurant has become a local favorite.
Like the restaurant’s business, the Chan family has also increased in number over the years. Two of his children are attending high school, two are in University majoring in Political Science and Genetics Biology respectively, and the eldest is working on her second degree in Public Health. Always believing in giving his children a choice in what they want to do, he wants for them to choose their own careers.
