Chon Ngern in Canton

Okay from the outside your first instinct is to drive right by. The restaurant is located in hat looks like an old beat up Shoney's. That said, go inside! The food is excellent. A good variety of everything from soups to curry dishes. Everything I have tried is excellent and of you want it it hot, they will accommodate you!

This is one of the best Thai restaurants around. The Shrimp Tom Yum is great. The ginger chicken is wonderful and the fresh rolls are also great. For those who haven't had Thai and think it is weird or too spicy, this isn't true. Very good food!

Amazing food and very friendly owner and staff. Great options.

Great food! Don't be put off by the exterior appearance, this place knows what a restaurant is all about: good food, good service, good price. The menu has a nice variety and the staff is very pleasant. It might be a little on the expensive side if you're getting takeout, but for a sit down dining experience the price is decent. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

This was my first exposure to Thai food; with it, came the best shrimp fried rice I've ever experienced. The service was adept and speedy. The restaurant is housed in what used to be a chain buffet restaurant, but don't let the exterior facade turn you away. This is a definitely a place I will return to.

It's always nice to stumble across good food. I love this place. We were seated immediately. The food was amazing. We also had some great service. I strongly recommend this place.

I love this place. The food is incredible! There lunch menu is awesome. Great place to get a bite to eat. You never leave hungry.

Little gem in Canton area with authentic Thai cuisine. Friendly staff and tasty food.

Really amazing Thai food. Better than my local spot in Atlanta even. Also the level 5 hotness is no joke. Canton, this place is a gem!

This place is amazing. Super good food and very friendly staff!! It does have a not so nice smell.

So happy to have this authentic Thai restaurant right here in Canton. The food is fresh and always on point. Haven’t had anything here that wasn’t delicious. Highly recommend!!! ❤️

The customer service is consistently swift, fantastic vibes, very kind staff members. I will visit here again when I am nearby.

Fresh, delicious food. Service efficient and friendly. Highly recommend.

Delicious food. Great, polite servers. I have had something different as an Entree 10 different times so far, I continue to get the Coconut soup. Every single Entree was visibly appealing and tastes delicious. One of my favorite places to eat.

Love this place. 95% of the time, their food and service is great. Every now and then, there is something off. But overall, it's awesome so will continue to go here.

this is also one of my son and his mom's favorite place to go I just love the food there specialty Japanese or something like that.

Our dinner was delicious and very good service!

This is real Thai food, and as yummy as it gets. The lunch portions are filling, and the price is right. Never could go at dinner time, but we don't live in Canton.

Wonderful Thai restaurant in Canton! Great staff and the food is always delicious. The spice is always just right by request. Two things not to miss every time are the Thai iced tea and the coconut soup. Outstanding!

The food and service were good. But the entire building reeked of mold and mildew. It's very dark and dingy. Dirty carpets, outdated furniture and filthy window sills with dead bugs.

We have been coming here for years and LOVE it! The food and the staff are wonderful! My husband loves all the curry flavors and enjoys getting them spicy. The noodles are great and one of our favorite appetizers is the larb. Love the lime flavor!

Very good Thai food but not good enough for 5 stars. To be 5 stars means to stand out as unique or be amazing. Although all the food here was good it was not amazing. I only mention this since every review I see here is 5 stars. With such high expectations I was let down a little. That being said it still good!The curry, spring rolls, plum sauce, coconut soup and Thai tea were all good. So I am confident that most everything you order will be good. Just don't expect 5 stars. Service is slow but nice. In fact the whole atmosphere is slow and laid back. This means getting your food takes a little longer than most. There is ample parking and seating so I would not worry about wait times.

Great food! Lovely service!

Excellent Thai food! The Tom Kha Gai is as good as I've ever had. Ask for the Nam Sod made with pork. SERIOUSLY GOOD! Very tasty fried dumplings too.

Really really like this place! I always get the coconut soup with chicken. Everything on the menu is great. Seems authentic! They have good appetizers as well. Don't let the outside of the building turn you away, just go in and eat!

I do love the food here they have great lunch specials and very authentic food. I have not noticed until I brought my eight-year-old daughter with me to this delicious spot that it actually does have quite a strong smell of mildew I’m not sure if they had a flood or something but now that she pointed it out I smell it every time I go in there. The pad Thai is wonderful the Thai iced tea is great their Currys are fantastic. I blame my daughter for the consistent smell of mildew that hits me every time I walk in there now. Maybe they need to steam clean some carpets or something maybe they will read this review and have someone come in and check it out.

Great food and the staff was hard working and super nice!

The best Asian cuisine in town! We eat here all the time.

Great food! It was super weird when we walked in because it was so quiet. Ordered some curry pineapple fried rice and pad Thai noodles. 4/5 spice was very spicy! But it was very good. 3/5 would be on the spicy side but more manageable. Everything was brought out quick and staff was very nice.

Our favorite Thai food restaurant! Their curry and pineapple fried rice are like special comfort food to me now. We have loved everything that we have tried, and it's a great place to take your family.

It's so nice to have such an awesome Thai place in Canton! The food is always fresh and delicious, it's definitely become a favorite in my household. They have great vegan/vegetarian options as well!

Love this place. When we visit our daughter, we always eat here. The food is excellent and the staff is very friendly and give excellent service. Look forward to coming back again 👍

Great food and service, only complaint is the food could be spicier.

Very good service and food was excellent

Delicious true Thai cuisine. So happy we have a Thai restaurant in town! Wonderful sauces, kind attentive staff, good thai iced tea, and be sure to let them know if you don't want it too spicy, but I love spicy thai. Fair pricing and plenty of menu items to choose from. Delicious soups! There is no negative side to this experience, only positive so they get 5 stars by me. It isn't a place trying for a James Beard award. Good family comfort food that is authentic, made with ingredients that are healthy for you, not processed fast food. It may take a little longer but at least you are getting real food, not "fast food".

Authentic Thai food in the old Shoney location. This place is the real deal. The pad Thai is fantastic and so is the massssaman curry. The service is usually quite good. Highly recommended

Authentic food and friendly staff make this a true jewel in the crown of Canton.

Its really good food . If you want spicy , go for level 5

Best Thai food anywhere. Unfortunately they are closing the end of December, so go get some now before it’s too late!

Love they have the option of how hot you want your food.

The service and food were fantastic. We've been looking for a great Thai restaurant since we moved to North Georgia. We don't have to look anymore! The food was fresh and delicious. The presentation was beautiful which made our dining experience even better. My favorite Tom Kha Gai Soup was heavenly, as were the fresh Thai rolls. Yummy in my tummy. I highly recommend this restaurant.

We love our local Thai Restaurant. The food is delicious and authentic. The staff is kind and lovely. You won't be disappointed.

Great Thai food and very friendly service! I love the taste of the fresh ingredients and the heat is just right!Sadly, it seems they will be closing forever on Dec. 31st. This is confirmed by owners that they will be closing for good end of the year.BE SURE TO EAT AS MUCH AS YOU CAN HERE IF YOU ENJOY IT AS MUCH AS MY WIFE AND I DO!!!

Superb Thai food in Canton. The interior is a little dated but the food more than makes up for the atmosphere. Their spicy dishes are very spicy--proceed with caution! But the menu is well balanced overall. I've never had a bad meal here.

Delicious spicy food! Great atmosphere!!

Great food. Beware this place does not mess around with spicy food. They have a scale out of 5 for spice and 5 will set you on fire. Delicious, appetizing, fulfilling, fire.

Service is exceptional and the food is unforgettable. I'm so happy I now this place now. Tip: their spicy options are really spicy. Tell them to go easy on your dish if you don't like it THAT hot :-)

Awesome food and good service. A hidden gem!

The best Thai north of Marietta. Priced right and very tasty. Always plenty of open tables; I guess not many people in this area have tried or want Thai food.

Canton’s best kept secret and hidden gem. My husband and I eat here once a week. We’ve never had anything we didn’t like. Even their takeout orders are timely, large, and delicious! Khob khun khaa
