In Short – Waiters dressed in bow ties and tuxedo shirts bustle between tables, refreshing teacups and recommending dishes. Swaths of fabric sweep from vaulted ceilings, their bright colors playing off black-lacquered furniture. The menu features Chinese-American staples: kung pao chicken, Mongolian beef, vegetable fried rice and pan-fried noodles. Hot and sour soup is large enough to share. The house specialty is Seafood Heaven, a medley of shrimp, white fish and calamari simmered in rice-wine sauce.
Editor's Tips
- The Extras:
- Owner Jonathan Chi has been known to honor special requests. With a few days' notice, for example, he may prepare traditional Beggar's chicken--a whole bird stuffed with herbs, spices and sealed in parchment.

Bad Business Practices - go to THE PALACE instead!
by baxter1889 at Citysearch
Went there tonight after finding a Restaurantt dot com certificate I'd gotten. ONLY reason I went there - to try it out. I have found some of my favorite new places this way.
It was good enough to get me there, but apparently NOT good enough for them to honor!
They had a sign - they do not accept Rest dot com OR living Social deals now. So they use these places to lure new people in - but do not keep their end of the bargain??!?!?
Went to The Palace down the street and had a great dinner. Did not have a certificate - BUT NO WAY was I giving Chi Dynasty money after being so mislead!
so good!

My wife and I have been regulars for years, and it's still the default restaurant for us. She's Chinese/American and knows her Chinese food. There's no MSG, it's moderately spicy, and good quality ingredients. Perhaps they have become a little less attentive now that they opened a second restaurant, but perhaps we are just spoiled. Staff is very friendly - some waiter are overly so. (I don't want them leaning their elbows on my table.)
A good place to pick up a lot of food for a party, which we've done many times. People in outlying areas aren't used to such good Chinese food and it'd good for business lunches or dinners, without spending a fortune.
If you dont know.... YOU NEED TO KNOW! This place rocks!!

Good food to be had at Chi Dynasty! Im not going to bash other restaurants, but there is certain places people rave about that just simply grosses me out with just the thought of eating there. Honestly I am a picky eater, I like amazing food, not mediocre....
All the shrimp dishes are delicious, the Orange Chicken entree is served with large chunks of chicken breast, Egg drop soup, honestly everything is sooooo good. Every time I go with a big group we order an abundance of food for variety.
- Pros: everything.... literally
Best Chinese Food Had All Around in The La Area!

Looking for a place to have excellant chinese food in the L.A area, at a reasonable price? Chi Dynasty is the spot! You have valet parking to fit your needs, and not to mention there is a new location opening in studio city! 2 locations at Chi Dynasty are better then one. One of my favorites at chi dynasty are the veggie egg rolls and hot and sour soup. Just a perfect way to start off my main coarse meal. The customer service within Chi Dynasty is excellant, very friendly. The price is reasonable and affordable for any type of customer. If I could, I would come to Chi Dynasty everday :)
- Pros: Great Chinese Food, Amazing Customer Service, Parking
- Cons: No Cons Just Excellant Chinese Food!

You can start off with the Fried Calamari or the Yin-Yang Szechwan Pasta and follow it up with a delicious Wonton Soup. As you move to the main course choose from a wide variety of fresh entrees such as the Lobster Tail served in Szechwan sauce, spicy Mandarin sauce, Lobster sauce or Cantonese rice wine sauce. If chicken is more to your liking try the Kung-Pao Chicken served in a hot chili sauce with peanuts. For a fresh high quality Chinese-American meal, stop by Chi Dynasty.
