Canton Element Chinese Restaurant

Authentic Chinese food, delicious!!! Service was good, helpful staff. The presentation of the dishes were very good, and the portion sizes were good. Tasty food!!

I have come here many times and keep coming back. Great service, reasonably priced and lovely food. Try the dim sum and they do a two course meal deal.

Food was absolutely gorgeous. Everything cooked to perfection. Also a Chinese that knows to make a vodka lime and lemonade. Would 100% recommend this restaurant to anybody.

Very nice ambience good food fantastic value for money! I highly recommend it to everyone that enjoys good authentic chinese cuisine :)

Nice atmosphere, delicious food, huge portions, awesome value for the price you pay. Highly recommend, I'm there at least once a week :) very nice

nice staff, quiet, no background music, busy, great food, no rush to push you out the door - can relax chat and enjoy the meal, a very pleasant experience

Excellent food, I will definitely be returning. I would highly recommend the set menu's; very good value for money and a good selection of courses/ foods.

The Dim Sum were truly, absolutely amazing and the duck was gorgeously done too!! Superb restaurant about five minutes from Holborn tube station. I can also recommend the Dolphin pub next door, especially if you want to time travel!!

We booked a table for two and when we arrived to the restaurant the table wasn’t free. So we had dinner in the karaoke room downstairs, very cold room. Bad experience.

Service was good and unexpectedly fast. Food was good as well. Had gau’s can be worked on a bit. Overall it’s goodnnothing to complain really

Dim sum di alto livello. Noodles un po' troppo semplici. Cmq tutto il resto andava bene. Il rapporto prezzo e qualità è ottimo, lo staff non troppo accogliente ma neanche maleducato . Consigliato!

I can't say enough good things about the food here. It is just great, always fresh, tasty and piping hot. Service is also quick if you are in a lunchtime rush.

I had to wait over 30mins for a table, the tables were too close together, the food was ok and the service was good. I would not recommend this restaurant.

very nice food and the price is reasonable. I love the dim sum and the dessert so so much!! will definitely come again next time.

Nice food, good service. The restaurant is quite small so tables are a little crammed together, but other than that I would recommend as the food is nice

Very rude staff telling clients to shut up while ordering food. It took a us approximately 10 minutes to order 3 items from the menu and the waiter was coming back 4 times to confirm it all. Food was below average. Definitely not coming back.

Great lunch experience as always, went with a bunch of people from office and we were all treated to an awesome meal with great value for money.

Very good neighbourhood Chinese Restaurant. Prices are cheap and the food was pretty good. If you're into American style Chinese food, this is where you should go when in Holborn.

Great as usual but, received bill before asking and we were going to order coffees etc. otherwise food as good as usual, we visit twice a year when in London.

the place is just near our hotel. The atmosphere is perfect, small but clean and warm. The staff are all so nice and approachable. Delicious food. We will definitely come back here. And I will recommend this to my friends and family.

We love it!!! Awesome food and such an honest price. Portions are huge and tasty! It's always our go-to restaurant with people from work. Highly recommend.

Lovely welcome when we arrived. Clean and bright restaurant. Efficient and good staff. Food excellent for the price (lunch time meal deal). We all enjoyed the food and the portions were excellent. Thank you and well done. We will be back.

Canton Element is always excellent and last night was no exception. Working away alone, I had a simple meal of soft shell crab and then Kung Po king prawns - superb as ever.

Good food and a good deal for lunch. However no one came to take our order (drinks or food) and when we eventually asked the waitress to take our order she was extremely rude and impatient with us. Our food took a long time to arrive and we had to take our main courses back to the office with us. Overall not impressed but have had good experiences here in the past so may well revist.

The food is great and wide selection. The staff are friendly and helpful. Service was good with perfect time between courses. Location is easy if in Holborn or kings cross area. They have good value set courses and the restaurant was busy but not noisy. Would use again.

A bit disappointed to be honest, from the reviews Posted i expected better. Dim sum were very good as was the crispy duck, but salt and pepper ribs were very ordinary, and the pork was frankly very poor. Won't be going here again.

Amazing food with great service - in a and out in less than an hour but fresh tasy food with a great menu selection. Would definitely recommend

Enjoyable food - well cooked and not a long wait. Short wine list but all reasonably priced. Staff were friendly and helpful. Would be very happy to eat here again.

Very impressed with the food at this restaurant. I am a New Yorker and we definitely know good food. Overall not thrilled with the food in London but this was one of our best meals.

Pleasant staff with a good menu selection. A nice clean restaurant but slightly limited on wine by the glass options considering it's location and vast menu.

We had a most enjoyable evening at the Canton Element: friendly service and first class food. We went for the larger of the Set Menus - and not only were the portions exceptionally generous but it was all delicious and freshly prepared. The restaurant is fairly narrow but long and well fitted out with modern touches. Downstairs there are some karaoke areas although, as we were having a quiet dinner for two, these didn't intrude in any way. For a barmy, early June Saturday evening it was less full than one might have expected. However, we have no hesitation in recommending it unconditionally for its fine food, good service and pleasant environment.

The food is sooo delicious!! And there staff are really helpful, friendly and speedy!! We came here with a group of friends for the kareoke and loved the food so much I brought my boyfriend back for his birthday! Will be visiting again! Wished we lived nearer!

Nice food nice service, even the "simplest" egg fried rice is very tasty. Liked the table a lot, like marble surface. Prices are okay too

A superb Chinese. The dim sum are not to be missed and sea bass, salt & pepper kings prawns and chilli beef with mango are exquisite. The service is very friendly and lovely and wine list is well chosen and priced.

Very good Cantonese restaurant. Would recommend trying the dim sum. handy as it is just opposite premier Inn Holborn hotel. Worth booking as restaurant is quite small.

This has become our regular local haunt. With friendly, efficient staff, great dim sum and salt and pepper squid, reasonably priced, we can't fault it.

Great food, great service, great prices. The dim sum is very good. The place is a weekly must go for me as I work closeby. I can definitely recommend.

Great service n good food... i reccomend it. Relaxed ambiance too makes you relaxed for a slow dinner. The staff freindly n helpful snd good prices.

Good food, and they have pretty fast service so you can have the 2 course lunch deal (pretty good value) within a lunch hour, just!

We three ordered dim sum，Shanghai fried dumplings, vegetable spring rolls and set meals. They were all very delicious. The place was clean and tidy. And the bill was very reasonable.
