    I enjoy how Paradise has other food options such as Mapo Tofu and sweet & sour fish. Unfortunately, I do not like their Xiao Long Bao. The pork flavor is very strong and has a gamey barn flavor that I do not enjoy. They are not using kurobuta pork like Din Tai Fung which has a much better pork flavor. The price is also too high considering the quality of meat is not as good.

    Two words- so good Cold dishes: fantastic, can’t go wrong with any pick. But I’d recommend the wood eared mushrooms for bang for your buck Hot dishes: traditional xiaolongbao to die for and spicy wontons. get the pea shoots (I can’t belt the price is same as other veggies)

    Many varieties of dumplings, all delicious. Some are in wonton soups, some steamed, some in chili sauce, and even dessert dumplings. Our group's overall favorite is still the classic/original pork xiao long bao.

    We are Din Tai Fung regulars and have wanted to check out Paradise Dynasty since it opened. Dumplings are delicious and juicy, on par with Din Tai Fung. Paradise Dynasty really shines with its other entrees. We ordered the shrimp noodles and green beans, both just truly delicious. Also ordered the lychee martini and it was amazing! Taro baos were another highlight, really buttery yet light. Highly recommend Paradise Dynasty if you’re in the area. Restaurant noise is a little high, so would not recommend for folks with hearing issues.
