    My friend found this place from a viral item they are serving--scallion pancake crab rangoon. They were not on the menu so we were worried we were at the wrong place but they assured they had it. They were super good--gooey and cheesey and still like a crab rangoon. I would come back for these. Someone next to us also ordered them. Now I did still want to try their traditional dishes so we split Xaio Long Baos which were really good soup dumplings. They were fresh and tasty. I also got a general gau chicken which I know is more Americanized Chinese food but got it since it was offered as a plate with rice. It was tasty, a little spicy and a large portion--I had leftovers. I would like to come back to try more of their authentic dishes as the food was of high quality and it was busy inside so that's a good sign!

    Sit down restaurant where it's a minimum 10$ per person, but after informing the waiter we just wanted the crab Rangoon he suggested just placing an order to go. 16$ for four Rangoons but oh my gawd. It was cheesy & crispy, and definitely explodes in your mouth. It spills out the sides so careful when eating, but it was so delicious. The location was nice but service was very dry.

    Dynasty was my first dim sum experience 20 years ago and it was great to bring my kids and show them the restaurant that made me seek it out every time we are traveling (there isn't any where we live). The shrimp steamed dumplings are the largest I've ever seen with huge chunks of shrimp. Baked BBQ pork buns are amazing and the fried turnip cakes are a great balance of sweet, salty, and spicy. Restaurant is decorated beautifully and on the smaller side of the other dim sum restaurants which I like.

    Food: SO good! The shrimp and chive dumplings were my favorite. The combination of fried dough and congee was also 11/10. Service: No complaints. Food was fast. Ambiance: Very clean, especially the bathrooms. I was impressed.

    I wasn't super impressed during my latest visit to Dynasty... I had dined here once before ~2 years ago for a special event and really enjoyed my experience so the expectations were maybe too high. First of all, the arrangement they had for queueing for tables was a bit confusing and unclear. We were given a slip of a paper with a number on it, which the hostess eventually called out after about 10 minutes. I wish they had a more seamless system for handling this (in an app or taking phone numbers instead). We ordered lots of dishes to share.. pineapple buns with roast pork, the viral crab rangoon scallion pancake, soup dumplings, rice rolls with ribs, etc. The standout for me was definitely the crab rangoon scallion pancakes. I 100% get the hype! It's ooey and gooey and perfect for any crab rangoon lover. I was however pretty disappointed in the pineapple buns (one of my favorite dishes) and soup dumplings, which honestly just tasted like they were frozen and reheated from the grocery store. The service was also very absent and it took awhile for us to wave someone down so we could pay our bill. Not sure if we visited on an off day or something, but I wasn't very impressed.

    First time last weekend I took my elder parents, husband and little one to try. I stopped by on the way to check on the restaurant really quick as I am not so familiar with its location. Pretty busy when I came in and was told all of their 11 tables are full. I was pretty disappointed as I want something new for my family to try when I was visiting Boston. Luckily, very last min, the young man at the counter able to get us in ( thank you so much, my family were so happy!). Food are delicious, same quality as other Dim Sum place I usually eat. Restaurant looks new & clean, staffs speak English pretty well. Chicken fried rice is yummy, huge portion. We all shared that plate. I definitely will be back when i will take my other son to Boston again. Total is around $51 for a huge chicken fried rice plate & 4 dim sum plates, awesome price!

    This restaurant has a lot of positives! The food is well seasoned and delicious! We started with hot and sour soup for two high was served in a huge bowl that would have worked for more than the two of us. It had a nice peppery tang that I would definitely recommend. The kimchi was fresh which I really enjoyed. My shrimp and chive dumplings were heavy on the chives. The overall flavor was good but if you don't love chives I wouldn't recommend them. The service and serving sizes were also quite good. The interior was clean. The hot tea was loose leaf and fantastic. Overall I would highly recommended this place

    I happened to book a hostel room in the neighborhood near Chinatown, and after doing a bit of exploring during the day, I got hungry, so I checked out Dynasty. It was ok. I ordered shrimp har gow, Xiao long bao, shu mai, and other items. The food tasted very plain compared to other places. The service was great, and I loved the waiters and staff for being super helpful. It was just myself and maybe two other groups, so it was pretty quiet. I wanted this place to be really good, but I just can't say I loved it.

    I have been sleeping on this place! My new favorite dim sum spot in Chinatown. It's casual, located in Chinatown, with shared tables. They take credit card. My favorite item was the Shrimp Noodle Roll which was truly the best version of this dish I've had--I could just eat this and be happy! They put the biggest shrimp in and really fill it up, and also have a really yummy sauce. The shrimp and chive dumplings are also yummy. The shrimp and fish roe dish was also good and filled with shrimp but not as flavorful. The congee was also a sleeper hit! We got a plain version since I don't eat pork and it was sooo flavorful. I'm not a huge congee person but this was great! Additionally, my friend with a nut/peanut allergy was able to eat safely here! We've come multiple times and the staff has always taken the allergy seriously and helped us talk to the kitchen.

    Loved it! We went to Boston's Chinatown last night to have dinner at Dynasty. One of the four of us is Chinese and she knew what to order and was able to speak (Cantonese) with the staff. We ordered a couple of mains and then a number of Dim Sum dishes. I enjoyed them all. The service here was very quick. Dishes came out fast, fresh pots of hot tea magically kept appearing. Finished dishes were quickly cleared from the table. And we felt for all the food we got, the fresh, authentic flavors of it all - that the cost was quite reasonable. I'd return to Dynasty!

    I came here for dinner with my family and had a positive experience. The xo noodles, mapo tofu and clay pot beef were my favorite dishes! The service was a little bit sporadic but they were pretty busy even for a Thursday night.

    **Delicious Dim Sum in Chinatown!** We had a great meal at Dynasty Restaurant in Boston's Chinatown! The shu mai were fantastic--perfectly steamed with flavorful filling. The BBQ pork buns were equally delicious, with tender, sweet pork wrapped in soft, fluffy dough. Fair warning: the portions are generous! We ordered what seemed like a reasonable amount and ended up completely stuffed. It's definitely a good value for the quality and quantity you get. If you're craving authentic dim sum in Chinatown, Dynasty is a solid choice. We left satisfied and happy. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for tasty, filling Chinese food in Boston!

    We were looking for some good dim sum in Chinatown and found this place. It has a clean, modern vibe which is unusual for legit dim sum places. You order off a checklist menu, so no carts rolling around, but everything came out hot and fresh. This is what we ordered. 1. Char siu sou bbq pork flaky pastry - OMG. These were so buttery, flaky and melt in your mouth. I wish I got more orders. This was by far my favorite dish. I'm still dreaming about it. 2. Har Gow Shrimp Dumplings - these were solid. Piping hot and delicious. 3. Siu mai pork and shrimp dumplings - also solid. Large and juicy. 4. Bean curd rolls with pork in oyster sauce - I didn't love these. They were kind of chewy. 5. BBQ pork noodles rolls - very light and yummy 6. Xiao long bao soup dumplings - these were not too soupy but had good flavor. 7. Molten egg yolk buns--These were surprisingly delicious. The molten yolk oozed out when I punctured them. 8. Red bean minion buns - almost too cute to eat, but they were yummy The service was quick and friendly, but we had to ask for a lot of things because there were no condiments on the table. Parking in that area is a nightmare, but that's Chinatown for you. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm in town.

    Are there dim sum carts?

    No Carts, it's all ordered on a paper.

    Are there any Vegetarian dishes to recommend here?

    I loved the fried dough rice noodle rolls and molten egg yolk sesame balls. I also enjoyed the scallion noodle rolls, custard rolls, and red bean minion buns. The steamed vegetables were a little boring. My review has pictures of those dishes!

    Is dim sum available for dinner?

    I don't remember it being on the menu. We did not ask for it.

We came for a family dinner and of course Grandma Ding was with us in her wheelchair. We only smashed into a few chairs in the big, crowded dining room. And fortunately other customers were understanding while the staff was helpful and accommodating. The small, curious child running around the dining room without parental supervision didn't get hurt when I ran him over. The menu was huge so it took a long time to order with Grandma asking questions about every item. I could see that the waitstaff was used to quick orders and rapid food delivery to the table, but the waiter remained kind and patient. He also repeated his answers loudly when she couldn't understand his English and because she didn't have her hearing aides turned up. We finally ordered a giant wonton soup, eggplant with garlic sauce, a shrimp dish, and orange chicken; all to share. Everything was fresh, hot, tasty and delicious. Grandma Ding did have to ask for the soup to be heated up because she likes it to be scalding. The dining room is worn and dishes were flying in and out as items were served and cleared. It's definitely a place for family meals, not one for an engagement proposal or romance. Perfect for our evening. Portions are generous and prices competitive with other restaurants in the area. Parking on the street is the only difficulty, particularly when you have a nonagenarian to get into the restaurant. We will definitely be back.
