Dynasty Chinese - Pacific Grove

I regret going past this place as many times. Dynasty is far above the other Chinese place recommended to us when we first moved here. The staff is amazingly friendly and the restaurant itself is beautiful. The food is always fast and WILL exceeds your expectations. Make yourself a favor and try Dynasty at least once.

Eating is always fast and lunch is amazing. For just $8 you can get a soup, fried rice and duck plus two fried cantons. I'm always here for a quick bite when I visit Chinese food.

We ordered the phone and picked up our food about 10min later. We ordered: Cashew chicken, sweet and sour chicken, potsticker and fried rice. The service was great and when we came home, we were very surprised how big the portions were! The food was fresh and the vegetables were all perfectly cooked!! None of the dishes we ordered had a greasy texture and the fried rice was delicious, not hard at all!! We were wonderfully surprised as this was our first time ordered from here. I would say that this restaurant is high quality food, fast service and is worth the price!

I was hungry and it was one of the first places I found open....it was 4pm and still hadn 't eaten lunch, I decide well I might as well try it I walked in and instantly impressed with the decor. It 's amazingly intricate and feels like a palace inside (you would have never imagined in a million years it would look so nice by the looks of it from the street) I take an absurdly long time to order but the waiter is incredibly patient and answers all of my questions. I order one of the dinner specials for 10 dollars it was chicken egg fu young I think it was called, comes with soup, won tons, pork fried rice, and stir fry noodles. The food was served to me within 6 minutes of my order and was HUGE. I tried each thing (the soup was a bit spicy for my taste, but flavorful) and each thing was FANTASTIC. I 'm a foodie, and love to cook everything. I hate going out to eat because I feel like I could make it at home. What ever it is. But this meal was delicious. I was truly impressed with the food and will go back to try more things. I 've never been so moved to write a review. This is my first ever. If your visiting the area, and craving Chinese, hands down, this the place to go. Beautiful and delicious.

12/7/2020 (lunch: First visit trying this restaurant for take out. I ordered: Almond Chicken Combination Bao (pork buns The rice was delicious, and was a medium rice variety. It had red onion, peas, carrots and egg. The vegetables in the dishes were fresh and the Chow Mein noodles were cooked perfectly, and not overdone/overcooked and mushy like many restaurants seem to serve. The egg roll and the Bao were just okay almost seemed pre made and packaged. 12/8/2020 (dinner : I decided to try the restaurant for our family. We ordered: Chicken Egg Foo Young Mongolian Beef Combination Chow Mein Combination Fried Rice Cashew Chicken The rice was different than when I tried it the day before it was a typical rice grain length vs the shorter grain version I had for lunch the day prior. The shorter grain version was so much better. It seemed to hold the “fried” a lot better. The rice we got to tonight was a long grain and did not have the red onion. It was good, as was the Chow Mein. The chow mein noodles were softer than at lunch time just slightly overcooked. The Mongolian beef has a nice crust on it, and was beautifully served, and the cashew chicken was great! We were extremely disappointed with the egg foo young. First, it was pre made to your order. Secondarily, it tasted like they used packaged patties that were fried to order. The “gravy” is not a typical brown sauce that you might find typically, but a mix of vegetables and mushrooms, perhaps made differently, based on a region in China. The Egg Foo Young was extremely undercooked and was inedible. We did put it in our air fryer, and then in our convection oven. It was edible, but not good. The meal, overall was really salt, but served piping hot and still good. So, would I order again? Yes and no. I think if it were the rice or Chow Mein, then yes. Both the Almond Chicken and Cashew Chicken were good because the vegetables were fresh and the chicken was as well. As of now, these would be the dishes I would order. They were really good, prepared well and they were served hot and fresh! I wish there were more homemade and fresh options. I would also like to try this restaurant again after Covid, as I know many restaurants are struggling and have had to cut some corners. Third time ordering: FANTASTIC! Rice was amazing loaded and fried nicely. The cashew chicken was delicious (again third time, and we also ordered the General Tso’s chicken. Hint: bring it home and put it in your air fryer if you get take out. The steam will make it soft when traveling, so fry it up when you get home nice and crispy. I think it depends on who cooks your meal and what you order here. We now have our favorites, so I will order those. You should try this place if you haven’t though.
