    Buddha Delight
    James H.

    The Buddha Delight is my new favorite!! All delicious vegetables in a light sauce. Of course, I add chile oil and chile sauce to spice it up. Healthy and delicious!!!

    So here's the deal. If this place was in the center of say Monterey Park it would not be getting such stars. However, when you're in big bear and want something that isn't pizza, burger, bbq.... Well you get it, there are limited options so this is where we landed. Didn't have high expectations so food was great! Especially the ong choy. Great service too! Friendly staff and it was pretty busy so seems like Big Bear folk enjoy coming here. Not very bright and there are areas that could use updating (there's some mysterious jars on the counter on the way to the restroom, uneven booths, etc) but all in all would come here again for a nice soup if I'm in the area during fall/winter season!

    We felt like some Chinese food & decided to visit the Dynasty restaurant for lunch today. We ordered a couple of lovely drinks to start off our visit and to peruse the many paged menu to hunt down our item of choice for today. I ended up with chicken egg foo young, which was delicious. It arrived as expected, but with more to it then I had received at other places in the past. The flavors were good and I see why this restaurant has been around as long as it has has. Everything was delicious! Good portions, friendly service, and a relaxing atmosphere all contributed to our enjoyable lunch. I would not hesitate to return next time I am hungry for Chinese food in big Bear Lake, California!

    Went to Big Bear on Labor day weekend and it was busy at the Village so we walked half a mile to this restaurant. It was surprisingly good (just don't order the lychee martini not good). Had the scrambled egg shrimp, kung pao chicken, salt pepper wings (such a hit), fried rice, beef chowfun. There were only 2 people who worked the tables and the food came out quick

    Had to order food to go for 70 folks at a event at the Holiday Inn The Lodge at Big Bear Lake half a mile away. Dynasty came through with 11 trays of food from fried rice, chow mien, tofu dishes and other vegetarian stir fry options. All the food was eaten. While I'm not a Big Bear local, I will dare to say this is the best option for Chinese food in Big Bear??? Sorry, no food pics but just have a photo of the rear entry from the parking lot.

    My fortune! lol.

    We walked in and it was a huge restaurant! Very clean and friendly staff. We ordered the won ton soup and it was hot and hearty on a cold day! We also got the fried rice with orange chicken and it was delicious and served hot! We really liked the food and the ambiance! We will definitely come back when we go to Big Bear!

    Surprisingly good Chinese food in the area. Smaller portions for the entree plates. Recommend this place if craving Chinese food up in Big Bear. Plenty of seats and ample parking spaces in the back. Friendly servers.

    My husband and I ordered take-out for Beef Broccoli and Orange Peel Chicken for $40.80. I didn't realize they also packed a box of white rice until I got home and it was a nice surprise. The food was delicious and tasty. I highly recommend coming in for the luncheon before 3pm. I didn't realize they offered it until I grabbed a pamphlet. I arrive at 3:04pm on Thursday. I wished I came a little before 3pm to try the lunch menu. Overall, good experience.

    I came in for lunch and had a nice meal. When I first walked in the front patio seemed very scrappy and dirty, but walked into a nice large restaurant with many large comfortable booths & tables. It was two in the afternoon on Wednesday, and I was the only one there. I started with a lychee martini and I must say, it had a very strange taste. I didn't quite recognize it because it did not taste like lychee should. I switched to a glass of Sauvignon Blanc. Then I started with the cucumber salad, which was nice. Prepared with a nice garlic sauce with big chunks. Then I ordered the chicken curry and although it was pretty darn good, it did not really have that much curry flavor, which was disappointing. There was a lot of tender chicken in it so overall it was a very good dish. I just wanted more curry flavor. Pretty decent prices with large portions. Service was friendly and efficient. Very large menu.

    It was my third time visiting Big Bear Lake so it was finally time to try some local Chinese food. Dynasty is located on the long street that pretty much everything is on, making it pretty easy to find. This large restaurant has a ton of seating and a fairly annoying parking lot where giant pickup trucks park like morons making it hard for the regular vehicle to park, which is not Dynasty's fault, just something I wanted to point out. We came here on a Friday night and they had a decent amount of people here with a friendly staff to serve them. The menu has everything you would expect. It's got a bunch of different veggie, beef, chicken, pork, and seafood dishes for everyones hunger. Being a sucker for a rice dish, I went with the shrimp fried rice with what I think was also chicken in it. The food didn't take long to come out and I've gotta say, it was a fairly underwhelming rice dish. The shrimp and chicken itself was fine, but the rice was a tad on the dry side and for a dish I order pretty regularly, it was just fine and nothing more. Overall, you don't have a ton of options for Chinese food on the mountain and if you are craving it, Dynasty is a solid enough place to scratch that itch. Although it wasn't the best I've had around, it was decent, tasted alright, and that's still better than some I've had.

When we stopped in the line was extremely long, which is great for the local businesses. The store has three unique sections. Ice cream, candy, chocolate, gummy, worms, etc., and caramel apples. I'm not sure if the employee was happy with us, but we ordered from every section. It almost seemed like he wanted us to go back and get in line to order from a new section but we didn't. I had peanut butter and chocolate on a cake cone that was outstanding. The wife had chocolate chip on a sugar cone and she also enjoy it. The grandkids had a variety of different flavors and I have to assume they enjoyed it because there was none left. The daughter ordered a caramel apple with some topping on it that she thoroughly enjoyed. She also ordered an extra one that was sliced that she shared with all of us. It had caramel and nuts on it. Very tasty. We also ordered different chili, flavored gummy worms and gummy rings. The grandkids thoroughly enjoyed. In addition, had to try out the chocolates.

The ice cream is in the back, so you can browse and order chocolate while you wait in line. The ice cream is by Dreyer's with quite a few options during the summer. A lot of them were traditional flavors but there's a good mix of different and new concoctions like coconut pineapple, banana cream, and peaches and cream. I got the strawberry cheesecake, but it didn't have strawberry chunks or much strawberry flavor, and chocolate peanut butter. The chocolate is overpowering unless you get a good chunk of peanut butter. Overall, it's a good place to catch a treat.

This may have been the first cronut I've ever had...but it was not the last. 10/10. I eat it every time I go. If you're in or around Big Bear anytime soon, make sure to stop by for a breakfast you won't regret.

The fish, flavors, and toppings all work so well together. I love everything about this bowl and find myself thinking about it even when I'm nowhere near Big Bear. I'm also glad they were able to move into a bigger location because the old one was much smaller. It can still get PACKED though. On our most recent visit, we came around 3:30 pm on a Monday during the last week of December and waited about 45 minutes to order, then another 20 minutes for our food. They have a self-order kiosk now, which helps keep things moving, but I'd still be prepared for a wait when it's busy. Considering how good the food is, I completely understand why so many people are here. The staff deserves a mention too. They're always so kind, welcoming, and high-energy, which makes the experience even better despite how busy it can get. I seriously love Tropicali.
