Super cute in here came in here to grab some food and a drink. Their drink of the day was a vodka tonic ($3.50), great deal. Got the Golden Dynasty Special ($16.95) and a side of bbq pork ($15.95). The special included soup, I chose the egg flour. All was very good. I sat in the bar and the bartender was super friendly. I got my food and drink very fast and enjoyed my experience. Will be coming back! read more

Our Server Jeannie was amazing. She didn't mind when we had substitutions or replacements due to food allergies. She made good suggestions. We ate on the bar side which is where she works. There are lottery machines and no kiddos there. It has a dive bar look but don't let that fool you! IT'S GREAT! We will be back often read more

Ordered a lunch combination to go. Chicken sub gum chow mein, mar far chicken and fried rice. It was very good with just the right amount of seasoning. Server was pleasant and order was made fairly quickly. I like that they package the fried noodles separately. Restaurant seemed clean. read more

The food is delicious and made fresh. Our server Vic is great! He works on the bar side which is quiet and has lottery. Vic is ok with my unique order changes. We get the lunch special. Servings are generous and we have leftovers. We go there weekly. They have beer, wine and hard drinks. Restaurant side is bright and family friendly. I think today was Rum and coke for 3.50. They have daily lunch and happy hour specials. Very clean restaurant and bathroom. See you next week Vic. read more

Golden Dynasty - Kung Pao Chicken and Rice. Delicious! - Chinese Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Yeah, the neighborhood is dicey but, the huge parking lot is better than a moat. They maintain the property and the kitchen has pride. They have been in business over 30 yrs. You won't find better Chinese/American for miles. A foodie treasure. read more

I did not care for the choice I made for dinner. I had a combination plate. The egg foo young had no flavor, the rice was bland and the shrimp where dirty. The service was good. Very friendly and attentive. The Ambiance was a little plain. But clean and noice level was perfect. If i do return i will just try something different. Thank you​ read more

Good Chinese food as usual. Friendly helpful service and quick turnaround from ordering to plates on the table. read more

Horrible food and they tipped themselves 20% and tried to say I did that. Which was clearly not my handwriting. Will never eat there again.

Not only was the food not enjoyable but they took more money than I authorized when I signed for the pickup.

Great happy hour . Good food - perfect fried shrimp, tender and tasty sweet and sour chicken. Fast service in the bar. A comfortable place to go. read more

Golden Dynasty - The bar. - Chinese Near Me - Portland, Oregon

The restaurant is in a "low rent" district and looks shabby but inside it's warm, inviting and comfortable. And the food is excellent. The cooks know their sauces and keep the heat right where American diners expect it. We have tried about a third of the dishes and find no weak spots. Of particular merit are the egg rolls, both the shrimp and the vegetable. Egg rolls are a simple dish, but it takes some skill to deep fry the rolls to get the chrispy roll with the hot inside--they never fail. Well worth the $$ with portions so generous we always split an entree and add the egg rolls or a soup. read more

Low quality food, all undercooked with disgusting taste. I spent $60 on it and I tried to eat it but I just couldn't it was that bad.

We've ordered out from GD a number of times; always great. But yesterday we had a hankering for their Egg Rolls. I picked up an order of Vegetable and one of Shrimp. What a great and simple dinner they made. And there's still two left in the fridge. These have to be the largest we've seen which to us means more filling and less wrapping. Their red sauce makes my wife swoon and I like it but add a packet of their hot mustard to heat it up a bit. You get six of these delights for under twelve bucks? And like I said, two orders is more than enough for us for dinner, with leftovers. Love Golden Dynasty! Local treasure. Sometime soon we'll try the bar for a Chinese bar night which I kind of like being a lounge lizard of sorts. But we'll soon return for the best Egg Rolls in town! read more

OMG! One of the best Chinese food places in town! The best hot and sour soup I've had a YEARS! Ambience is great! Little tables in the bar with old style decor. Dining room is kind of plain but don't let that fool you. The saddest thing about this restaurant is there is no delivery! Keep in mind they are closed on Tuesday's. Service are very nice and attentive! Bartenders are great. They also have video gambling machines to pass the time while you wait on you food order. But you won't need to wait long as they usually bring the soup and appetizer quickly! I've eaten at a lot of Chinese restaurants in Portland and this is my favorite! Fresh, made to order food, great happy hour specials. Heaping servings- you might want to share! Love this place!! read more

The General Tsao chicken is McDank! Looks slightly soggy but taste is absolutely on point! Maybe the presentation was because I had ordered take out; I'll be back, nonetheless! read more

Best American Chinese in town; if you want really egg foo young go here! Really fun bar too! Reminds me of my childhood. Well, not the bar

Food and portions are great they are my go to for Chinese food - the staff are all very nice and friendly

I'm not sure why they don't have a higher rating. We have been here a few times now & the food & service is always on point. GREAT JOB GUYS!!!!! read more

This place is great - consistently good food and great drinks, always excellent service and reasonable prices . Grant it, I've only been in the bar area but it's got a cool vibe, bartender is always very attentive (even with a full bar area) and I like the video poker options. Little sketchy from the outside because of the homelessness chaos on Foster out front but well worth stopping in and checking out. read more

Great Happy Hour Specials! Fresh food, always tastes so much better than what I get at other places and it's always so quick. Plus the service is always so welcoming every time I come in! HH is 2-6 and 9-close. Come support one of the last standing original good Chinese food establishments. read more

Going back for a third lunch today, more later. Hopefully it will be as good or better than our previous lunches!

Great food, drinks, service and people!! You have to try the homemade potstickers. My wife's fav is the General Sho's Chicken but there's a lot of good options. read more

Once a month our aquatic exercise class meets to share lunch. The male waiter is superb. He hosts 15-20 women with great efficiency, impeccable attentive service with calmness and grace. Loads of fun! read more

Didn't like the food the service wasn't great as well try it at your own risk kinda think

The food they serve is way too salty. I had their BBQ Pork Foo Yung, BBQ Pork Fried Rice, and BBQ Pork. I get this regularly at other places and it's always a little salty but here it's like eating chunks of raw salt. Even their Egg Drop Soup and Hot and Sour Soup was like drinking/eating salt water. read more

Excellent food and very generous portions. We ordered the family dinner "A". The service was fast and friendly. The only reason I can't give 5 stars is that the inside of the building needs a little TLC. They definitely have good prices. We will repeat. read more

Pretty darn good, clean, consistent and, friendly. Large portions. I was pleasantly surprised on my first visit.

The food was very good and it was good and hot as well, they had so many great reviews and gave me confidence to go to this restaurant because I hate going to a restaurant and being disappointed read more

I had the "Kung Pao Chicken". It's delicious! I've also had "Happy Family " before, which is also delicious. There's plenty of parking; it's just off I-205 on Foster Road. Generous portions too. This is my favorite place to eat Chinese food. read more

Golden Dynasty - Szechuan Beef - Chinese Near Me - Portland, Oregon

Discovering interesting places in "no man's land" is not easy. In this case, "no man's land" is that obscure area of Portland, east of I-205 yet not quite in Gresham, south of Division and Powell, and north of the Clackamas County line. I believe that this area was once unincorporated and annexed into Portland. When occasionally going to the Franz Bakery Outlet on Foster Road, where Foster is wide and sparsely developed, a mom and pop Chinese restaurant would always catch my eye. This restaurant, Golden Dynasty, is one funky looking place. Sometimes, there are few cars there. Sometimes, it is more crowded, based on the cars in the lot. I figured out that this phenomenon occurs during happy hour. That's rocket science at work. I needed an East Side surrogate for the cheap lunch specials at the Happy Fortune, a Chinese restaurant on the better side of 3 stars located in SW Portland near Barbur Blvd. and Capitol Highway. I looked at the Yelp reviews for Golden Dynasty and they appeared to be mostly positive. That said, I was charged about going and determined to like this place. Inside, Golden Dynasty is more understated than Happy Fortune. It's more "woodsy" looking. Also, there aren't many windows. I motioned toward the back of the restaurant, where there are some windows onto the parking in the rear. I looked at the menu and the lunch specials were numerous. I spotted some reliable cashew chicken kew. When asked what I wanted to drink, I mentioned that I wanted a glass of water and it was brought out to me. I also wanted the usual eggroll. It turns out that you can't order just one. That platter comes with 3 of them! The food arrived. The cashew chicken was very good, as were the crispy egg rolls. I then realized that the tea, which comes with the meal deal, never came, so I asked for it and it arrived. That was a first, in terms of experiences at a Chinese restaurant, and the tea is usually there in no time. Again, everything was good. As for the service, the server never checked back and she had to be motioned over several times ... and the restaurant wasn't even crowded. I had to ask for more water because, when food is hot, your nose may run. I then had to ask for more napkins, and only got one. The bill was reasonable, at under $10, and a fortune cookie came with the tab. However, the fortune cookie was more stale than any I've ever had. To add insult to injury, there was no fortune in it. I then had to ask for another fortune cookie and the fortune contained in the new one was just plain weird. The name Golden Dynasty says Colorado to me. You see, Golden is a suburb of Denver and "Dynasty," the TV series, was set in Denver. Once I saw the opening credits and vistas of Denver, I never bothered to watch a full episode. However, the location is neither golden nor fit for a dynasty. Across the street is an ARCO station, to its west and across the intersection is a Plaid Pantry, and diagonally across the intersection is one of the grande dames of Portland auto junk yards. Actually, this led me to perceive it as a "good dive" type of place. Now, I am confused. At Golden Dynasty, the cashew chicken, for which "no MSG" must be specified, was great and lunch specials run until 4 p.m., 7 days a week! On the flip side, you need to load up on egg rolls, to the tune of 3, which tip the meal toward being too filling, get service which leans toward the pert side, and possibly even get a fortune cookie without a fortune. I am so damn confused that I will give them a balanced 3 stars. I don't know when I'll return, even though that cashew chicken was good. read more

Really surprised with the quality of this place. The orange chicken has really good breading, not too crispy and not too chewy. The fried rice is ok, it could use more flavor. I wanted a combo, but I wanted orange chicken instead of Mar Far chicken and they charged me $3.50 more! Yikes!!!!! My boyfriend had the crab puffs and said they were really good. It's definitely dirty and old plus the clientele is a little rough. The bathroom requires a code and multiple people who seemed high on something tried using it.. I'd return, but it's also not anything special. read more

We ordered takeout. I don't know what was in the potstickers, but it was dark brown "meat". I was expecting pork. We fed them to our cat who also wouldn't eat it. The fried rice had no vegetables, it was just rice with egg, with clumps of unseasoned white rice that hadn't been fried at all. My husband liked the lo mein though. read more

We came here for Happy Hour because I found the menu online. It was very affordable and everything we ordered was excellent. The sauce on the General Tso's chicken was like none I'd ever tasted and it was delicious! The drink special was rum and coke for 3$ , my drink, it nearly made do a happy dance. Tasty apps, cheap strong drinks. HH starts at 2:00 until 6:00. I will definitely come back for Happy Hour and dinner too. read more
