About:
16780 NW 67th Ave, Miami Lakes, FL 33015 305-821-1111
Description: MIAMI LAKES. Canton is slightly more upscale than many area restaurants, and most evenings it caters to couples and groups of local executives. The menu is extensive, with options ranging from beef to vegetarian. The steaks earn top marks for quality, freshness and skillful preparation, and honey garlic chicken, served in lip-smacking stacks on the plate, is sure to disappear quickly. From Cantonese to Szechwan to Mandarin, the chefs cook with confidence, and servers present each dish with efficiency and friendliness.

CHINA GRILL
About:
404 Washington Ave, Miami Beach, FL 33139-6600 305-534-2211
Description: SOUTH BEACH. This bustling Asian-fusion favorite is known for its satisfying, family-style portions of fantastic seafood and other Asian favorites. Celebrities, millionaires, and other jet setters often make a night of it here. The vivid decor features transcripts of Marco Polo's diaries on the floor, but there is usually too much people-watching going on to notice. Tantalizing menu options include seared rare tuna with spicy Japanese peppers or delicate rolled lobster pancakes. The side dishes are as excellent as the main dishes, especially the wasabi mashed potatoes. (Insider tip: Oprah recommends the crispy spinach.) Finish your evening with a bang by ordering the dessert sampler, which features a small portion of every dessert on the menu, from crème brûlée to flourless chocolate cake, served complete with a festive sparkler. Reservations required.

The diner atmosphere is appealing in its simplicity, and the menu features a rotating selection of entrees, soups, and salads.
