    Kung Pao Chicken with Peanuts
    Fran H.

    We tried this place for Chinese. We loved dim sum and we're looking for good dumplings. They have soup, dumplings, and regular dumplings, fried or steamed. The one problem was most of the dumplings had seafood shrimp additive there were none with just meat. We opted for vegetable dumpling which are not our favorite. We got the string beans and they were so good well good flavored well. One entree of kung po chicken which had many peanuts almost too many. All in all was good not great. Complimentary tea is always a good start. The restaurant was not crowded which should have been an indication especially on a weekend. The restaurant is modern and nice inside and very clean.

    Pork Soup dumplings with sliced ginger

    Chinese @ Cherryhill, NJ We had an early dinner on Saturday and was sitted right away without dinner reservation. There were other restaurants and Chinese market adjacent to the restaurant. The restaurant was spacious and the service was prompt. We ordered crab and pork soup dumpling which was very juicy and scrumptious. The pork soup dumpling was also good. The twice cooked pork with cabbage was too greedy for me. The price of dishes were very reasonably.

    Crab meat and pork soup dumpling - sooo good Peking duck set is good. Crispy skin is so crispy. Need to order an hour ahead of time. Like the roti type wrap but not liking the sauce. You can ask to have the duck bones to make soup or stir fry for $6 more for each dish. I would get the soup again but won't get stir fry. Steamed sea bass is good. Salt and pepper pork chop is good - meat a bit hard for my liking. Dry pot is so fun. Came out sizzling and hot for awhile. You can add any topping for $5 each. Pea leaves are a bit too chewy. Service is great. I am a regular and usually not crowded which I love.

    We ordered the pork soup dumplings, beef ho fun, house fried rice and rice cakes. Everything came out quickly, hot and delicious. The rice cakes and noodles had a great bite to them without being soggy. The meat was cooked well and the sauces had great flavor. The soup dumplings were also a great hit. Full of pork and juicy soup! The staff were great. We had two children with us and they were so kind while interacting with them. The space is clean and well cared for. This is definitely a place we would go to again.

    Came here for dinner for the first time. The food is very good. The soup dumplings are delicious! The service is great too. I love the decorations of the restaurant. I will come back here again.

    Green Dry Sauteed String Beans

    Went with a couple of friends for a light dinner and shared the below dishes. Everyone enjoyed the meal. Service was okay. Prices were reasonable. The great beans were amazing some of the best I ever had. Not sure how they made them but I could have eaten the entire plate myself. They alone deserved 5 stars

    Pork and Crabmeat & Pork Soup Dumpling Beef Scalion Pancake Cold Cucumber

    Dim Sum House will be a new regular in my local eats. It's right in my neighborhood and it's a gem! As far as soup dumpling spots, this is the best I've ever experienced especially for affordability. I absolutely loved the humongous dumplings, especially the Pork and Crabmeat Soup Dumplings, which were absolutely full to the brim with soupy goodness. I recommend taking advantage of the chili and vinegar sauces for dipping. I also got the Shanghai Pork Fried Soup Dumplings but they were a thicker dumpling than I was expecting and not comparable. The beef scallion pancakes were very nice too! I don't know if I loved the beef, but that may be because I am a purist about scallion pancakes. Again, very nice dipped in sauce. The cold cucumber was a surprisingly delicious addition as well. Tea was served complimentary for free. Very cute environment and great service as well. I have zero complaints because for two people our total came to $37, which is incredibly cheap in 2024. I will be returning happily many more times for that and the soup dumplings. Highly recommend.

    I was so surprised to pull up to this place to see that it's right next to Brother's Seafood; 2 dim sum places next to each other, very interesting! I've had Brother's before and a fan so I was curious to see how Dim Sum House would be We got the pork soup dumplings, beef pancake, mapo tofu, beef ho fun and cucumber salad. I wasn't impressed by the menu, there was lots of dishes that I would have loved to have; dry pepper chicken, black bean clams but sometimes when the menu is small it's bc the dishes they have are just really good But I wasn't wow'd by anything but it wasn't bad either! I was craving mapo tofu and I liked the flavors! The beef pancake was a little bulky but it was tasty, lots of good flavors. The pork soup dumplings were OK, I've had better; needed more meat in the filling, I didn't get much crab. The cucumber salad was super oily Service was great and the inside was very clean and big! All in all, this place was good but I would say it's just as good as Brother's Seafood!

    Good food. Good service. You can get 5% off your bill if you pay with cash. The soup dumpling skin is very thin and the dumpling is very juicy. I think it's as good as Nan Xiang Xiao Long Bao's soup dumplings. The beef ho fun is very good. Fair warning that it's a greasy dish. No places around this area makes ho fun as good. The beef scallion pancakes need more hoisin sauce and scallions. The pancake could be a bit thinner- this dish was on the dry side. Came here in a Monday for lunch and there were about 6 other parties. The dining area is clean and organized. Would definitely come back here again.

    Beef Scalion Pancake
    Heather L.

    Solid 3.5 stars. Accidentally went here instead of the other dim sum place in the same shopping center. Ended up being a pleasant surprise. Got udon noodles with pork, beef scallion pancake and the tri colored soup dumplings. Everything was pretty good, soup dumplings were a little overfilled on the soup to filling ratio but still tasty. Definitely preferred the green dumpling and chicken over what I thought was just supposed to be pork but had a slight seafood taste so maybe it was crab and pork? Staff was friendly and attentive. I would come back.

    Complimentary Oolong Tea (I think? Or maybe Jasmine)
    Anna S.

    "Confused" describes my entire dining experience. We were so excited to see this new dim sum place opened up in the Asian market plaza where we go to get our Asian groceries. We came on a Saturday around 11:50am and there wasn't a wait. However it became busy around 1pm-ish time. The menu at first looks amazing and unique with some dishes that you don't usually see at normal dim sum restaurants. We ordered a couple items to share: 1. 3 colored soup dumplings 2/5 2. Dan dan crispy tofu 2/5 (it's basically just fried tofu...) 3. Marinated gluten 4/5 4. Salted baked Squid 3/5 5. Fish fillet with salted egg yolk flavor 3/5 Most of the dishes didn't come with much seasoning. I wonder if they forgot to salt their food. It felt like they try to compensate their lack of flavor by throwing in a random dipping sauce that also isn't good. The salted squid came with what tasted like a chipotle or thousand islands sauce that didn't quite compliment the dish. The Dan Dan crispy tofu - which by the way was just fried tofu - came with some fermented bean paste that tasted straight from a bottle. I was hoping they'd serve the crispy tofu with some pickled vegetable or a lighter sauce. The fish fillet also had no flavor. You have to really dip it in the egg yolk sauce which was mediocre and not fully incorporated with the fish. The highlight should have been the soup dumplings but it was not. The only soup dumpling I liked was the crabmeat one. The other two tasted very strange ... and the staff also couldn't tell exactly what soup dumplings were served in the 3 color combo. I still don't know what flavor I ate but I didn't like it. Overall very disappointing dim sum experience. However the staffs were friendly - maybe the food quality will improve over time as they did only just recently opened.

    We have been at the original Shanghai Number 1 restaurant several times in Chinatown Philadelphia. We were happy to learn that they opened a branch in my hometown Of Cherry Hill. Dim Sum house is located in a large strip mall that is rapidly becoming more and more Asian. It seems Chinatown in Philly is migrating to South Jersey. For me, that is a good thing. Dim Sum House has very good Shanghai style soup dumplings. I have tried in several places in the area and Dim Sum House rivals the gold standard of Dim Sum Garden in Chinatown. The wrapper is not too thick and the broth and stuffing is delicious. I also like their Crispy Salted Chicken (the dipping sauce is really good) and Dan Dan crispy tofu appetizers. The new space is really nice and it is large and modern with high ceilings. Our servers were great and attentive all night long. 4.5 Yelp stars

Waited 10 mins and we both started eating it. No sign of other dish. Couldn't get anyone's attention. Finally after another 5 mins, who looked like the owner asked what was wrong & went to check for missing dish. It arrived 10 mins later on a bed of lettuce No pepper & onion, very bland. We would go again possibly if we were in the area telling of the wait time as to not happen again hopefully & chose wisely - definitely a sauce

(Note: if you only want smaller serving of their great, thick noodles, order $4 add-on as a side in place of rice with regular dish.) I always have leftovers to enjoy at home. Dumpling orders are large and shareable. (Always 6 or 8 pieces.) My fave when dining in is amazingly delicious and huge Fish Fillet in Hot and Sour Cabbage Broth. (That's best with rice side to help absorb broth.) So good and healthful to balance the dough density of whatever dumplings you might also order -- they're all great. When getting order to go (or delivered) I like Kung Pao Chicken; it travels well. Order added green veggie dish for sharing -- I lean toward Chinese Broccoli; you'll really want the balance with the delicious dumpling and noodle dishes. Large cocktail menu -- Lychee Martini is so refreshing. Important: cash only for dining in. There's an ATM by their front door. Takeout and delivery accepts credit cards. Most reasonably priced parking nearby (if you don't score a limited street spot) is ParkAmerica at 1040 Race St a few doors down. In fact, it was one of the valet guys in that garage who recommended Dim Sum Garden when I was seeking great Chinese option. (Thank you, Ceasar!)

I just get a feeling that the focus is on pushing alcoholic drinks rather than on the food. The pork buns felt like they were previously frozen and were very sweet. Shrimp dumplings tasted off. Service was never the star but it wasn't so dismissive either. Just a very bad experience and while I won't go back, I also don't want to rate them 1 star as that would be unfair. Their food now is no better than the next guy and that's disappointing. Cash only btw. I write this because they do not post signs and a couple tables had to go grab cash from their ATM machine.

This place immediately came to mind after I read the reviews, and I ordered takeout tonight. I am very pleased to say that this was an amazing experience! I opted to do fairly simple dim sum, mainly because a restaurant that has "dim sum" in its name should shine in this category. I was able to place my order online, and had the scallion pancake, the pork, soup, dumplings, the chicken and shiitake dumplings, and the shrimp shu mai. The order was prepared, extremely fast, but very attentively. The packaging was thoughtful and protective, without being wasteful. They included a small container of delicious black vinegar/soy for dipping, and some chopsticks. All of the dishes were fantastic! My favorite was probably the shrimp dumplings, and I was happy that it was two for one night. Everything tasted very fresh and well-made. The seasoning was spot on, without being overly salty. My only regret was that after going to pick these up, I noted that the inside of the establishment appeared to be quite quaint and comfortable, and would definitely recommend that people check this place out for dine in options. The staff were very friendly, and made the pick up experience a positive one. So, if you're in the area and really want to have some dim sum, I would definitely recommend this place. I will most definitely be back in the future!!
