Broth was completely bland, and very little of seafood was in it. XO Seafood Noodles - ridiculous! Not a hint of XO sauce detected which is usually super tasty with lots of umami. Beef with Rice Noodles - just ok, but again much smaller portion than expected, not enough beef, and the rice noodles were not right (should be the wider kind). So we ordered: Braised Pork with stewed Veg - best of what we ordered and last to arrive but the meat needed to be more tender and sauce was not right, should be a richer brown-ish sauce with more intensity as it should be slow cooked to develop, but this was a light yellow and mostly just taste salt Clams in Black bean sauce - a very small portion, sadly the clams were sandy, and mis-priced (their chalkboard had a much lower price for it but they wouldn't correct it saying that was from weeks ago, really? then why would you still have that up?) we did not have energy or time to object. The table next to us never got some & had to leave. Very strange! Dishes came out randomly after a long wait but they did arrive eventually. and, can't really answer any questions about any dishes (basic stuff like 'what kind of fish' in the fish) and had such an attitude to not answer anything like wished there weren't any customers there. Place was not crowded but server kept saying how busy they were so not to expect food by any particular time because kitchen has been slow and other tables complaining, wow.
Sadly, a very poor experience: everything from the service to the food. We haven't been here for years, and usually came for the Dim Sum. on weekends.Came on Chinese New Yr when the restaurant we tried to go to was closed.
AWESOME DIM SUM MENU FULL
The plan is to eventually offer full lunch through dinner hours daily, starting as early as 10 a.m. to 10 p.m., though there will be closures on August 2 and August 9 as the restaurants continue to slowly creep up towards full capacity. Both are still operating at limited capacity until at least mid-September, so expect a possible wait for now. The arrival is part of a large dining overhaul at the Bloomingdale’s inside the mall - called Collage - that features multiple new restaurant tenants spread across two floors.įor Le Shrimp Ramen, start at the ground floor the larger Paradise Dynasty is upstairs. One pandemic and a change of scenery later and the Paradise Group team is now open at South Coast Plaza, the tony Costa Mesa shopping center. Plans for Paradise Dynasty have been in the works for Southern California since 2018, though at the time it was believed that the group would end up somewhere on LA’s broad Westside. The opening menu is below, as is the menu for Le Shrimp Ramen. Diners get views directly into the dumpling-making action, from the signature xiao long bao to dim sum staples like pan-fried dumplings, steamed buns, and egg yolk custards.
The elevated space is wrapped in black, gold, and grey, with booths, bar seating, and two-tops spread across the large 5,200-square-foot dining room and kitchen. Upstairs is the new Paradise Dynasty, which is scheduled for a larger September opening but is serving now with limited hours, staff, and seating. Between July 31 and August 15, Le Shrimp Ramen will offer a “buy one bowl, get one half off” deal to all customers as well.
AWESOME DIM SUM MENU PLUS
There are housemade wontons as well, plus lots of head-on shrimp and separate dishes like teriyaki chicken and braised tofu. The bisque-like broth is a slightly smokey and concentrated mix of shrimp and pork, done up with chewy noodles. Now, they’re ready for a big Orange County reveal at upscale South Coast Plaza, complete with an entirely new second space that focuses on ramen.įirst up is the downstairs restaurant, Le Shrimp Ramen, a more compact (1,100 square feet) full-service spot that leans into seafood-based noodle soups. The growing Singaporean chain has already expanded, thanks in part to its colorful xiao long bao - perfect for the age of social media - to nearly 50 dumpling-focused locations the group also has a slew of other restaurants spread across the Asian continent. Real dumpling fans have known about Paradise Dynasty for years.
