The food was excellent and amazing. The flavors were amazing I highly recommend the pork buns and also the sticky rice. Having picky kids this made me extremely happy as they loved everything that was ordered. The staff was so friendly and polite. They helped so much when it came to deciding some of the foods. Even tho it's a big place it's surprisingly nice and quiet which we loved and enjoyed. It's a very clean and well kept place for a busy place. My son had enjoyed being able to see the fishes they had also. Highly recommend & definitely will be coming back again. It % deserves this full 5 star rating. read more

My family and I have been coming here since they opened, I believe there's a new owner now. We use to love coming here and we come pretty often BUT today just wasn't it! We paid and we always tip! While waiting for our to go order after eating the waiter brings up our order and asked if we paid for it yet, OF COURSE WE DID because if we didn't you would of brought us our check! We gave it the other waiter and tip was including, he kept going back and fourth with my husband asking him if we tipped FIRST OFF TIP IS OPTIONAL AND WE'RE NOT OBLIGATED TO DO SO...I told him YES we did we gave it to the other waiter! That whole situation was just awkward. I don't think we'll be coming here again, so disappointed... read more

The food was amazing! So many options we ordered some dim sum and some on the a la carte menu. Celebrated our aunts bday here this is her request she loves going here. It was empty inside it was just us. Server was rushing they definitely wanted to go home already. read more

Brother Seafood Restaurant - Dim Sum Near Me - Cherry Hill, New Jersey

the food was mediocre at best, but the absolute shocker came right as we were walking out the door. A staff member actually chased us down the sidewalk, demanding a larger tip because they weren't satisfied with what we left. It is entirely inappropriate to harass customers over gratuity. Never coming back here again. They don't deserve a star but the system will not let me post if I don't give them a star. read more

Came back this Sunday for a family brunch, and this visit definitely deserves 5 stars. In the past, service could be a bit slow due to being short-staffed, but this weekend was a complete turnaround. They had plenty of staff, dishes were cleared immediately, and water and tea refills were constant, something dim sum lovers know isn't always guaranteed. Now the food: just as good as I remembered. For a family of five, I may have gone a little overboard and ordered 11 dishes, from har gow and siu mai to rice rolls. Everything was fresh, delicious, and came out in under 10 minutes. If they keep this up, this will stay my go-to spot for dim sum outside of NYC. read more

Driving through Cherry Hill around lunchtime and decided to give Brother Seafood Restaurant a try for their dim sum. The restaurant is rather spacious and clean and well lit. There is a fish tank with some lobsters, crabs, and a couple of fish. It doesn't look that impressive for a seafood restaurant, but maybe the demand around this area is not that high. We ordered Shrimp Dumplings, Beef Short Ribs in Black Pepper Sauce, Stuff Sticky Rice Wrap in Lotus Leaves, Beef Rice Rolls, and Steamed Spare Ribs with Rice Rolls. The beef short ribs and the two rice roll dishes were pretty good. The sticky rice in lotus leaves was decent; but the shrimp dumplings were not up to standard. The shrimp didn't seem too fresh and the skin on the dumplings was thick and kinda soggy. Prices were pretty good and service was decent. They didn't even charge for tea which was nice. Overall it's an okay dim sum restaurant especially considering it is in New Jersey and not in NYC. read more

For a dimsum place in a plaza, this place certainly defied my expectations. Our table of 7 ordered a huge selection of dishes for a birthday celebration, and everything we ordered was delectable. Based on my experience from another dim sum place that shall not be named, I thought it'd take a long while for us to get our dishes. To my surprise, food came out pretty quickly and everything was on point taste-wise. Some of my faves were the fried shrimp balls, salt & pepper calamari, bbq pork buns, and fried dough rice roll. When the bill came out, I was also surprised that it was very reasonable. Service was great, in that the wait staff were friendly and helpful whenever we needed something. I'd love to go there again soon. read more

I ordered take out yesterday & was told it would take 15 minutes. My group of 4 adults & 4 teenagers decided that the adults would be outside/walking in the area/strip mall. We notified the cashier who took the order. The teens stayed & sat at a table. The large restaurant was empty except 1 table. When the adults returned before the 15 minutes, the teens were outside, with the ordered food. They were told to leave the restaurant. This review alone is based on the poor customer service. We will not return. read more

I came here for a tea ceremony, so it was quite a large group. The staff were friendly (for the most part) and helpful. The food came out quickly, and it was quite a lot. Not a lot of vegan or vegetarian options, but that's normal for dim sum. Duck was good but I wish they had the thin wrappers instead of the buns. I don't usually like the red bean sesame donuts but they were wonderfully chewy. read more

Very good dim sum and probably the best in New Jersey. The jellyfish was the best I have ever had anywhere. In fact, I had to ask what they do differently. Service was attentative, but because of the language barrier could be a little bit challenging, but friendly nonetheless. I only wish they had these steamed chicken with oil and scallion, but the stirfry wasn't bad. Definitely will return! read more

Go for the Dim Sum, skip the rest!! Honestly the largest selection of dim sum a la carte in the area. Not just dumplings... think turnip cakes, rice noodles with cilantro, stuffed eggplant, chicken feet, spicy cucumbers. It's a lot and almost all of it is very tasty. Grab a group, get a round table with a lazy Susan or whatever they are called in a Chinese restaurant lol, and EAT! read more

We stopped into Brother Seafood for dim sum and it was fantastic. There is a convenient dim sum menu with photos where you can check the boxes next to the items and then hand to the server who takes your order sheet to fill. The dishes come out as they are prepared, but they arrive swiftly and piping hot. We ordered: shrimp dumpling, pork shiu mai, shrimp shiu mai, chicken feet in black bean sauce, beef short ribs in black pepper sauce, Shanghai pork and crabmeat juicy bun, cream custard bun, roast pork bun, crispy egg tart, stuffed hot pepper, pan fried turnip cake, salt pepper white fish, fried quail, pork rice roll, shrimp rice roll, pork and thousand year egg congee, cold cucumber, Chinese broccoli, mango pudding and a couple of dishes off of the menu which is also extensive. Service was excellent and initially we were sat at a small table for four, but after we ordered; they moved us to a large round table with a lazy Susan in the center which made for a great eating experience. The food was excellent and many of my measures of great dim sum (turnip cake, chicken feet congee, dan tat/egg tart, salt and pepper noodlefish/silverfish, custard bun) were 5/5 stars for me and a trek to Philly Chinatown is no longer necessary for great dim sum. Great food, great service, great experience! read more

We were greeted with hot tea, and the service was impressively fast our food arrived very quickly, which was great. We ordered some of the classics, including pork and crab dim sum, salted baked shrimp, a noodle dish, and General Tso's chicken. While the presentation was nice and the portions fair, the flavors didn't quite meet expectations this time. Some of the dishes tasted different from previous visits particularly the shrimp and the General Tso's was a bit underwhelming, with a sauce that didn't quite hit the mark and chicken that lacked the usual crispiness. Overall, it was a quick meal, but we were hoping the flavor and quality return to what we remember from the past. I don't think I'll be back for a while as the strip has more competitive food selections read more

Nope. I had high hopes but was let down. My husband and I came for lunch and were seated quickly. Staff is friendly and fast but the food is a straight forward "NO". My husband and I ordered 7 different dim sum options. The soup pork dumplings were very slimmy. I know that sounds weird but my husband described it the same way. Fried dumplings were just okay. Pork buns were greasy and the dough texture off. The shrimp dough rolls were way too thick and fried wonton I would not even try due to how greasy they were. I hate to give a bad review but there are better options in the area. Would not be back read more

I previously gave them a great review but I am sorry to say I have to modify it. I ordered take out. I saw the total $39.98 and I signed it. It was not until after I left when I looked at by receipt to see that the cashier circled 20% tip for take out. I asked for paper plates. Someone went to the back and brought out one foam plate and 2 paper plates. Then I noticed the foam plate had bite marks on the edge as though it was chewed on and the paper plates had specks of dirt. I went back in and said quietly that the plates looked chewed upon. He said don't use that one. I said I don't want to use any of these plates and I got a slight eye roll. I asked for take out containers to use as plates. He hesitated a bit and then directed one of the waiters to give me containers. Sorry I will NOT be back. I do not support a business that treat customers in this way. read more

Food is solid and good for South Jersey. Went here for a dinner recently. We got the banquet menu since it's for a party. Everything but the fish was good. Avoid the fish if you can because it's probably dying from the chlorine taste. I could only take a small bite after tasting it. read more

Tried Dim Sum in South Jersey for the first time and it was good (comparable to Dim Sum in Chinatown, Philly). They had all of the varieties of Dim Sum available such as Shrimp rice roll (which is my all time favorite), chicken feet (my husband's favorite), tripe, fried shrimp ball. Service was fast (but we were there mid day on a Friday so we were seated immediately). Staff was friendly. Prices were comparable to other Dim Sum places (considering inflation and all). This place is in the same plaza as the Supermarket and another Dim Sum spot but they are famous for their soup dumplings, which I am not a fan of. read more

Avoid at ALL costs. This is a distrusting restaurant. I hope the owner reads this and responds to this post since they are going against restaurant business laws. Do better! My mother ordered some take out and the cashier circled in 20% tip on both slips of the receipt before she signed and she was rushing out so we just caught this. Are you serious? I usually tip a few dollars for takeout but to pre circle and charge 20% on any takeout is absurd. Adding on top of this my mom discreetly and respectfully went into the restaurant to let them know one of the one styrofoam plate had chewed up marks in the corner (looks like rats) and he said he gave us other paper plates to use too - which were dirty to begin with. He rolled his eyes at her and she asked for takeout out boxes and he reluctantly handed her some styrofoam boxes. Talk about terrible service and attitude. I didn't even want to stomach my food after this. Mind you, I have NEVER given 1 stars in all my reviews but this was the icing on top. read more

Brother Seafood Restaurant - Dim Sum Near Me - Cherry Hill, New Jersey

Really average dim sum, maybe less than average than the standard fare you could find in Chinatown. It's comparable to frozen dim sum, and it's certainly three times the price of it with how much you get. The entrees and service are passable. read more

I am back here for dim sum with friends. It is still a good place for it. The place was not as crowded this time around. The food came hot. Everything we ordered was good. The service was good and attentive. The space is okay. The bathroom was clean. I recommend coming here for dim sum. read more

4 of out 6 dishes came out cold, not even warm. Tea pot looks like it hasn't been washed. Tea stained on the pot everywhere. Food is decent and pricey as others have reviewed. Custard bun has a bit too much dough and not runny because it was cold. Chicken feet, spare ribs, and shui mei were also cold. It would've tasted better if they were hot. Stuffed eggplant - came out fresh and tasted good. But sooo oily. Crueller wrapped in rice noodle - the dough was still crispy and warm. The restaurant might not have enough people coming in during weekday lunch so the food could have been left out for too long. read more

My family & I crossed the bridge from Philly to come here bc my brother claims that this place has good dim sum and really wanted me to try it during my visit. It is located in a shopping plaza next to a huge Asian supermarket with ample parking. The restaurant is really spacious, there are no push carts here but instead you check off what you want on the menu paper. We got here around 10:30 am, 30 minutes after they opened on a Sunday. All the food came out relatively quick even though it's supposed to be "made to order". It was more like "pre-made", the food was cold and the buns were hard when they brought it out. My mom suspects it was probably from last night. Most of the the dim sum dishes were bland, some were OK, service was bad and the pricing seems more expensive than Philly and NY, how is that possible? The bill was almost $200 for the 4 of us. I guess it's not bad if you live in the area but imo, the dim sum @ Kim Sum in Pennsauken and China Gourmet in NE Philly tastes way better. Overall, it was a very disappointing experience. read more

Wow, this place is quite delicious. May be my go to spot when I visit NJ. Everything came out steaming hot and very flavorful. They have a full Chinese menu and they also give you a sheet with a pen to mark what you like for the dim sum side. So, no standard push carts here, which is ok with me as I feel it's a lil fresher doing it this way. We ordered a bunch of stuff from the dim sum side. The one item I may skip next time is the beef short rib. Although it was flavorful, it was way too fatty for my liking and a bit too chewy. I couldn't bite through. Lastly, I was searching for tendon, but I couldn't seem to find it. As for menu side, we only got 2 things as I knew we overdid it on dim sum. Beef chow fun with gravy was yummy. I think they used a lil too much ginger, but overall good. The ginger scallion lobster was also very flavorful. Can't wait to come back and try other dishes read more

Brother Seafood Restaurant - 11/25,2023 family dinners - Dim Sum Near Me - Cherry Hill, New Jersey

Decent dim sum spot if you live in NJ and don't want to cross the bridge over to Philadelphia. Everything we ordered was ok, but nothing to write home about. Spacious location without the typical dim sum carts, our order was taken and brought out quickly. Although flavorful, the fried fish was mostly batter. I recommend the chive and shrimp dumplings. It was fresh and had large pieces of shrimp in it. When it came time to payout, it was impossible to flag down a server despite the lack of diners in the restaurant. I ended up walking up to the cashier to pay. I would probably return if I were making a special trip to the grocery store next door, but only to order takeout. read more

I really wanted to love love love this place. After all, it would save me a trip over the bridge into Philly's Chinatown. Some of the dim sum was good - the shrimp dumplings were amaaaaazing ($6). On this trip, I also discovered spicy chili oil. You get a star for this this. But don't order the beef short ribs with black pepper sauce ($6). The menu photo image had well grilled slabs of meat with char marks. In reality, we got a bowl full of gray unappetizing bony meat. Not meaty bones. Bony meat. No thank you. read more

Stopped by for the first time and it was surprisingly delicious. The vegetarian dish and it was very flavorful. We also ordered a couple of dim sum items.

Brother Seafood Restaurant - 175. Assorted Vegetable Buddhist Style 144. Fillet Grouper and Bean Curd Casserole 31. Pan fried Chives Dumpling 33. Stuffed Hot Pepper - Dim Sum Near Me - Cherry Hill, New Jersey

We decided to give this place a try after watching a vlog on YouTube. We were excited to find out that there was dim sum being served in South Jersey and didn't have to go into NYC or Philadelphia. We were immediately seated after arriving. The restaurant is the size of a small ballroom, with fancy decor that's reminiscent of a banquet hall. There are square and round tables that are available for seating and most of the chairs have red seat coverings with big golden bows on the backs. Both table types have pink and white tablecloths, but only the round ones have glass lazy Susans. A golden dragon and golden bird are mounted on the wall nearest the round tables and an ordering counter and fish tank display can be seen in the very back. I'm pretty sure they hold wedding receptions here on weekends. We ordered the following: Jumbo prawn steamed with garlic and cellophane noodles- it was a little overcooked, but a great concept. Hubs said it gave him ideas on what to cook at home. Daughter thought it was a pretty dish but thought the shrimp should have been bigger. The head was bigger than the rest of the body, so there wasn't much shrimp to eat. Mixed mushroom dumplings- this was surprisingly good and had lots of mushroom flavor. Daughter and I thought it was a little cool on the inside but it was still tasty. Pan fried chives dumplings- this was pretty good, but average. Stuffed hot peppers- hubs liked it and missed it but said there was nothing special about it. Coriander rice rolls- awesome . Flour was thin but cooked all the way through and cilantro was awesome. This is my favorite dish and I haven't had it for a long time. Didn't realize how much I missed it. Beef rice rolls- daughter liked it and thought it was a classic dim sum staple. Hubs liked it also but thinks the coriander rice roll is the winner Overall, this place was pretty good. The standouts were the coriander rice rolls and mushroom dumplings. This place is in the same strip mall as Hung Vuong, which is a Vietnamese supermarket. Can do multiple things while there, dim sum and food shopping! Service was pretty quick and friendly. Will definitely when in the area to try other items on the menu! read more

I don't get how this place can have more than 3 stars. The only thing I am happy about is they have a big parking lot and unlike Chinatown street parking. Other than that, I don't see the hype about this place. The food really doesn't taste anything special. As a matter of fact, I feel like there's not much taste to them! I was surprised it's so bland. The service was not superb. But what can I say, after all, it's normal from a Chinese restaurant that you or your family didn't didn't build the connection with. Hahaa. I don't think I would want to return and give this place another try. Not worth my second visit unless they changed their food quality or chefs. read more

Brother Seafood Restaurant - Dim Sum Near Me - Cherry Hill, New Jersey

I drove from Center City to Brother Seafood Dimsum at the suggestion of my friend who lives in Cherry Hill. The drive, on 76 E and I-295 North took 30 minutes. I am bilingual and I am a native speaker of Cantonese. I looked at all of the dim sum dishes as well as the main menus. I spoke Cantonese with a staff person who told me that the cooks are from Center City Chinatown who commuted to work there. We ordered har gau 虾饺, siu mai 烧卖, shrimp in rice rolls 虾肠, beef meat balls 牛肉丸, and Shanghai-style soup dumplings 小笼包. They tasted from good to very good. I'll go back again to have dinner there. It is a large restaurant and one will always find a table. The noise level is low so you don't have to scream in an otherwise noisy, congested dim sum restaurant. The staff want you to order quickly but you can always tell them that you want to dawdle and talk a little while. They'll leave you alone. The bathroom is clean and everything works. And the price is reasonable. What more do you want from a restaurant half the world away from Hong Kong or Canton (Guangzhou), on Brace Road in suburban Cherry Hill, New Jersey? I also don't believe that I'll find better dim sum in Center City, Philadelphia either. read more

Brother seafood has a great atmosphere with efficient service. You have a wide variety of dumplings to choose from. We got the custard dumpling which was adorable but a bit too doughy for my taste. The pork dumplings were flavorful and juicy. With your meal you are served complimentary tea. For a delicious meal served with speed this is your go to place. read more

I really do enjoy this place and love having a place like it so much closer to me than chinatown. Brings me back to the days when I was kid and used to go to Joy tsin lau with my Lolo and family for special family events and celebratory gatherings. So I normally don't enjoy eating feet of anything. Esp chicken or pig feet. I've tried them throughout the years on several occasions to see if my opinion or palate has changed and it's been a fail everytime. Except..for this time!? I had a chicken foot. One, but it was prepared so well, I didn't mind eating it. Texture is usu the issue and this was prepared so well and soft; nice job! Snails, take it or leave it bc the ROI just isn't worth my appetite..but the sauce was excellent. The pig feet, like the chicken feet, do not look appetizing but this was cooked w oysters so that was a nice switch up for me and it was pretty good! Now, I don't know if it's cause I'm older now and give less Effs or I'm broadening my horizons even more but, decent work on them! Could have been softer as the fat and skin was a little too chewy and gelatinous but I'm sure that's an easy fix. Little more time in the pot and I would have been all over them. I plan to come back for more and different items off their menu. Oh, and nice staff! Appreciate y'all. read more
