About
The word Cantón is Spanish colloquial for “home”. It’s in our hospitality to welcome you to our small business as if it were your own home.
We have found our working class community in the blue-collar migrant workers that step inside to taste a hot meal like they would back home in Latin America.
Our dishes are to remind them of why they keep working so hard to provide for themselves here and provide for their families in their respective countries of origin.
We simply wish to provide a bit of that Latin American comfort food to Adams Morgan, in Washington DC.
