Jun Dynasty

Jun Dynasty has served Tucson’s midtown neighborhood since 2013, offering traditional Sichuan cooking made from scratch with a focus on consistency and reasonable prices. Owners Jojo Chan and Edwin Hui, both with backgrounds in real estate and automotive industries, opened the restaurant with the goal of creating a space where families could explore authentic Chinese cuisine alongside familiar favorites. The team of more than 30 employees includes several longtime staff members, many of whom have stayed for over a decade. The Flaming Chili Oil series leads the menu, delivering Sichuan heat and numbing spice across a range of protein choices, including tofu. The chow fun, a stir-fry of wide, flat rice noodles, ranks among the most-ordered dishes, alongside the Walnut Shrimp, which pairs freshly fried shrimp with a creamy house-made sauce. Sautéed green beans, cooked over high heat in a wok with Sichuan peppercorns and doubanjiang, draw consistent repeat orders for their deceptive simplicity. General manager Jacob Yeung recommends the Firecracker Chicken or Shrimp as the best starting point for diners new to Sichuan flavors.
