I’m not sure where all these negative reviews are coming from. The servers were super friendly and attentive. We ordered from the dim sum menu, and the food was delicious! They spaced each dish out perfectly so they always came out hot and fresh, right when we were ready for the next one.

Service was nice and friendly. We came in for Dim Sum; food is very bad, shrimp dumpling wasn’t fresh, we can tell it’s frozen, shumai is so so, beef tripes are way too salty. The worst of all is the seafood fried roll, very oily, and they taste very bad, a strong old-oil smell and no flavor at all, it said seafood but barely see any seafood at all, just dough and oil; we took a bite and i can’t even swallow it. Price is expensive for the poor food quality. Very disappointed ☹️

Used to be way better back then (5 years ago), chicken with broccoli was the only thing decent but it was room warm, the rice wasn't fresh, the beef chow fun was way too salty (though size and flavor was alright) but the fried rice was disappointing, salty and bland. Barely any shrimp and tasted purely like salt. Not worth the money, hope they find a new chief

If you can't accept an order on Uber eats don't accept it. They accepted the order then cancelled after 40 minutes. Just absolutely no regard for the person on the other end of the order...

I recall going to this restaurant a little over five years ago and it was honestly pretty good. Since then, the food quality is quite literally abysmal. I have been to China and have had better dim sum left in trash cans in the least relevant provinces that are better than this. First I ordered the pan fried noodles with chicken and the quality of the chicken was so bad, that the only way it was edible was if we dipped it in the over seasoned, over oiled wonton soup that me and my girlfriend ordered. Not to mention that the wontons in the soup were hard as a rock and tasted god awful. Next was the soup dumplings which emitted an ominously sweet smell, unsurprisingly it tasted worse than any soup dumpling that I ever had. After that debacle we were served the steamed pork dumplings that were nearly inedible, with an absurd amount of dough that covered the minuscule amount of nasty pork filling within. While the waiters seemed somewhat attentive (we were the only table in the restaurant and were staring at us the whole meal), failed to notice we stopped eating 5 minutes after we got our full order served to us. They assumed that we wanted take out boxes and were quite cheerful and pleasant about the whole affair. That was until I left without giving a tip, to which they ran out of the restaurant and angrily confronted us for doing so. As we hastily paced along as far away as we possibly could on foot, we proceeded to throw away the left overs in the closest trash can. While I thought it would have been a better idea to give the food to someone less fortunate, I didn’t want to give them food poisoning and an unsavory taste in their mouth. I cannot stress enough how wildly awful this restaurant has become. After looking at new more recent reviews it is probably due to a change in chef and ownership. This place isn’t even a shadow of its former self, it is a unrequited ghost that clings on to the physical world. This place honestly needs to be checked by a health inspector.

If you'd want to come to a place for Chinese cuisine, I'd concider this more of a last resort. The food was good, but not what it used to be. They used the serve amazing food pre-pandemic, bit returning so many years later there's less of that upstanding quality and flavor this place used to have.They don't even bring around a dim-sum cart anymore, which dosen't seem right concidering the name of the restaurant.Otherwise, the food was average. Dim sum was still nice, even if they didn't bring the cart over. Their seafood tasted fine, but nothing seemed to have any outstanding or unique flavor. Their bean curd was quite filling and had decent flavor.Come here only if you're in the area, though maybe concider other options first. I'd want to see this place improve in the future, but I don't see it as the "Dynasty" it once was.

My fiancee and I are fairly new in town, and were in the mood for some Chinese food, we decided on Dim Sum Dynasty. We ordered the Peking porkchop, and the fillet of fish & tofu casserole. The Peking porkchop was VERY fatty and gristle, my fiancee whom is Cantonese, couldn't believe they could serve this to customers. The casserole dish was worse, the tofu was bitter, chewy, and sour, the fish fillet was non existent. Needless to say we didn't eat much of our meal. The staff as a whole were pleasant enough, but the booth seating was very cramped, and uncomfortable. So disappointing, we were hoping to find our go to Chinese restaurant, and are yet to find one in the surrounding area. But do heed my advice and stear clear of this mess.

Very poor service, messed up orders, dim sum was just lukewarm, Yang chow fried rice was bland and a very expensive meal for such shitty food. My husband was furious that the hostess wanted to charge us for sodas which was clearly ordered by the table beside us. After making us wait, she actually came by to check one more time before she fixed the check. The audacity! If you are reading this, please for the love of your tummy; find another place.

The best original Chinese food in the tri state area! Owner is at the restaurant and gives great service. Quality is always amazing . Will come again

Came here with my boyfriend and wish we had seen the negative reviews before going. I think the only good thing we ate was our soups. We ordered a house special lo mein and as we’re eating the chicken we realize it was spoiled chicken. We instantly called our waitress and she agreed that the chicken did not smell right. A restaurant should not be prepping and service spoiled food let alone spoiled poultry. The crab money meat bags were stone hard and hard to bite into. Overall, not satisfied with what we ate, but our waitress was understanding and took the lo mein off the bill. Definitely not a place we’ll return to.
Food is okay. Not too much to say about it. This isn't a real dim sum place anymore. The menu for those dishes is one page and it doesn't have much selection. It's really just an expensive Chinese place now.

Whenever I am in the mood for dim sum, this is my go to place. It beats driving into the city, paying for toll and looking for parking. Super local and taste as good as Chinatown dim sum. I would say you must get the pan fried seafood noodles!

Very disappointed and mad. We went on Chinese new year. On the phone they said we would need to wait a little bit. But when we got there, they made us wait for an hour and half. Every time we asked they said food would come soon. My husband was so mad at the end he set a timer and said we would leave if food would not come for another 5 min. Then the food came and they kept talking to us how busy they were and wouldn't let us eat. The food was horrible. They could have sent some appetizers or snacks but they didn't do anything while we were waiting. Will never go back.

Dim sum dynasty is some of the best dim sum in the tristate area. Judy is the absolute best, we held a baby shower here and everything was wonderful. Been going here for a decade and the foods always been delicious, authentic, and fresh

SO BAD. We ordered $150 worth of food off Uber eats from here and threw about 90% in the garbage. The chicken was so stringy and hard and the Rangoon and everything fried was solid as a rock like they deep fried it eight times over. Such a waste of money , inedible ???
