Perhaps since it was a weekday (and snowing), it wasn't busy and we were seated right away. Like many pho or Vietnamese food spots, it has a casual, familiar feel, both in the atmosphere and the food. We shared fresh shrimp rolls and fried calamari, and each of us ordered a main - I went with the pho of course! The smaller size was more than enough. Overall, it was a solid experience, though nothing particularly memorable. That being said, I could see myself coming back if I'm in the area again.

Compared to other dim sum restaurants in the GTA, Crystal Dynasty offers fair dim sum in terms of…read moretaste, quality, quantity and price. It's probably the best dim sum in the Hamilton region. There are several items that we usually order - shrimp steamed dumplings, steamed chives dumpling with shrimp, steamed rice noodle with shrimp, deep fried dumpling with assorted meat, pan fried bean curd, pan fried eggplant, salt and pepper deep fried eggplant, Singapore Fried Rice Noodles and Fried Noodle with Beef and Soya Sauce. The one disappointment was the steamed pork dumpling. The last time I ate there, there was a lot of gristle and parts of the dumpling were inedible. Previously, it was fine. I've had dinner there as well, but the flavours and 'wok hei' are fair and not quite up to expectations. The restaurant could use a fresh look and new carpet. Service is fair. It may be the most authentic Chinese food you'll find in Hamilton.

I was surprised that they did not highlight more of their Thai curry or other traditional Thai dishes. This was a bit of a red flag for me. Overall, the dishes were watery and needed more flavour. It did not taste authentic. Anything that was supposed to be breaded/fried was soggy by the time we got home. They should adjust their recipes for takeout by serving the meal separately with sauce on the side. Quality and taste were below expectations compared to other authentic Thai restaurants I have eaten in the Greater Toronto Area. Restaurant and location cleanliness and ambiance could also be improved, Unfortunately there was a homeless person sitting in the waiting area and I did help him out, but was surprised as this was my first experience seeing this at a restaurant.

We decided to get take out last night. We got the chilli chicken, crispy sesame beef, a large hot and sour soup and some veggie noodles. The total after tax and tip was just under $100. I love that their mains come with a bowl of plain rice so you don't have to order too much carbs. The crispy beef was packed with flavour and the serving size was huge. That to me was the star of the meal. The soup was also delicious. The chilli chicken tasted a little bland and was missing the Hakka spice to it. Overall, it was an average experience, the beef was phenomenal but I do see why we stopped coming here.

She seemed annoyed that we had a stroller with us, even though it was tucked away to the side (not in anyone's way). Again, it wasn't busy (maybe 4-5 tables seated the entire time) but she also seemed like she was running the entire place herself by the way she acted. We ordered the Khao Soi (chicken) & the pad see ew (beef), and she got the order wrong and made them both chicken. She corrected the issue and brought us out a new dish, but I feel like if she wasn't so stressed and rushing everything, this could have been avoided. The food was good, but I won't come out of my way to visit here again because of the service.

Her behaviour and how she carries herself has unfortunately bled over to their front staff as well. We were planning to host an evening with friends and family at this location, but unfortunate news had struck within our family and we had to cancel. We asked if it was alright to get our $250 deposit back to help alleviate some of the funeral expenses. She declined and constantly pried into our family situation and was very adamant on trying to push this dinner to another time. We thought it was extremely unprofessional and showed an extreme lack of sympathy and empathy. Gopika rudely challenged us and fought tooth and nail to keep our $250. Eventually we had to give up and let them keep our $50 because it was too unbearable to spend more time and energy in this time of need. Jegachandra Retnarasa was of no use either, you might as well have not even butt in. This restaurant is ran by people who do not care about you and would sell their humanity for $50.

It's always a good sign when you can find Cantonese-speaking customers in the restaurant - and we did. The restaurant appeared clean, although was dated. There were basic dim sum choices on the menu, but quite a number of items were crossed out and marked as not available. We tried the Shanghai Style Fried Noodle, Preserved Egg and Pork Congee, Steamed Sui Mai Dumpling, and Steamed Chive Shrimp Dumpling. We ordered the Pan Fried Dumpling with Minced Pork - it never arrived. Just as well because we had enough for two people and were already full. Of all, the congee was the most flavourful. The other items were standard. The noodles didn't have as much flavour and 'wok hei' as we would have liked, but still ok. I did ask if they made the dim sum in house, and the server (owner?) answered, "yes" but I do have to wonder. I would give it another try for dinner entrees.

Vermicelli w thin grilled pork slices, lemongrass grilled chicken (thigh i think), and in house made spring roll. I often expect frozen factory spring rolls so it was delightful to have it fresh. Lots of meat in this dish. Veg were finely mandolin'd and mixed well with noodles. Highly recommend Rib Pho comes in a hot stone bowl and a tower of add-ins plus a plate of raw beef. Melt in your mouth braised beef rib, fresh sliced beef, fresh sprouts/herbs, perfect rice noodles, rich flavourful broth. Takes a minute to dump it all in but you see the ingredient quality. This reminds me of the good old days when we ordered an XL Pho and when you saw it, couldn't comprehend how it will fit into your body. We tried. We got take home containers. Also recommend Che Thai, which features flavours of jackfruit, pandan, lychee in coconut milk. Fantastic. Developed by their chef, I love this dessert drink (we had as an appetizer) but would absolutely ask their opinion on the other specialty drinks. Nicely renovated, lots of free parking, comfy seats, a bit of a line on a Friday night but crowd well managed. Ample food to taste and share, family style friendly.

The location is very conveniently placed near an Asian plaza which also has a B-Trust and several drink places nearby. We walk in and the decor is simple but impressive, and felt very homey. There's a generous amount of seating, although we were a party of two and our table felt a little cramped. The service here is quite fast. The server got our water and asked for our order fairly quickly. Me and my boyfriend pick our food out very fast so we didn't find. I ordered the satay pho with rare beef and beef balls, and he got the chicken and pork on vermicelli with spring rolls. We were having trouble picking an app. We wanted something high-protein and was eyeing the betel leaf wrapped ribeye. We asked the server about it and ended up trying it. The ribeye was amazing. It was minty and went really well with the saltiness of the meat, which was cooked perfectly. We were pleasantly surprised and will definitely order again. My boyfriend let me have a piece of the chicken and the pork and it was great. It was the standard lemongrass flavour and it delivered. I had the satay pho which was also very nice. I liked the rare beef and it worked well with the soup, although I found the beef balls to be a little too dense and chewy for my liking. The portions for soup here are massive though do take note. They allow exactly one refill for the broth as of me writing this review, although I never found the need to do it. Other dishes I've tried: - The tom yum with seafood is also amazing. There was a variety of seafood and they don't skimp out on any particular one (though I did wish there were a bit less vegetables so I could focus on the broth) - The mango salad here is also stellar and is a nice cool appetizer to contrast the heat of the soups. I was overall very impressed by the food and service and will be dining here more frequently. Do note that there is a surcharge for credit cards, so either bring a debit card or do cash.
