Dynastie

Chinatown Downtown

Chinese Asian Szechuan

Review Summary

Dynastie is described as a late night go to in Montreal with hours that stretch very late and a reputation for solid Chinese food; reviews highlight fried shrimp dumplings and crab asparagus soup as standout items, a wonton soup that is great, and prices considered decent, while some dishes like beef and coriander soup are below average and hargow is just okay; service is generally fast and reliable, with staff often being friendly and recommending popular dishes, and the place is seen as a hidden gem for late night dining after concerts or bar crawls; however, a negative note appears about a particular server who pressures tipping, removes tips, and throws the receipt when unhappy, which can mar the experience for some guests.View restaurant profile
