Nice atmosphere. I was skeptical about the place seeing some negative reviews. But decided to go with safe bet. Like dimsum and general tso chicken... they didn't give us soup spoon for dimsum but kinda late to ask for it and some dimsum was already tore in the bottom so soup was leaking through...which defeat the purpose of soup dumpling. And general tso chicken was average but the sauce was watery in the bottom. And weird fishy smell in water cup. I had to get different cup for it. Then it was better. Robot serving machine was serving food but the waiting staff put it on table for us. So i don't really know the purpose for the robot but it was fun. I've seen it in other restaurants Overall not bad experience but idk if I will visit again. read more

We really enjoyed our dinner and there was a lot to choose from but don't come here if you're expecting a traditional Dim Sum experience. Usually there isn't a menu and numerous servers are pushing carts throughout the restaurant and explaining what they are offering. That's half the fun. You have a chance to sample all kinds of dishes, usually small bites and can order as many or as little as you like. Here you are ordering off a menu like any other restaurant. It's not a bad thing but it's really not Dim Sum. The menu is large with many great sounding dishes. They had Peking Duck that you don't see on many menus and it was delicious. Well worth a try for an above average Chinese restaurant. BYO read more

Really quick service, the staff members are all polite, and they the food is all hot and tasty. The restaurant has nice decorum that doesn't feel tacky despite plastic plants and soft lighting that normally wouldn't work. Everything seems priced appropriately as well and isn't trying to rip you off for a fun meal for a date. We only spent $20.30 plus a tip for 3 steamed pork buns, 4 dumplings, 2 sesame balls, and a pot of hot tea to share! All of the food was great quality for the price. read more

I enjoyed everything I tried here. The staff are friendly, and the food comes pretty fast. It's a pretty casual spot to eat, with lots of seats. The prices are amazing! Steamed Pork/Crab Meat Soup Dumplings: not the best I've had but it was still good Shanghai Wonton Soup: a bit bland, but still a good soup on a cold day Beef Pancake: crispy, fried exterior filled with meat Golden Lava Bun: love these so much as a dessert Spicy Pan Fried Dumplings: comes with 4, each was so big read more

We were on our way to Legoland in Plymouth Meeting and got lucky that we found delicious Dim Sum Factory along the way. It is a beautiful space inside that is perfect for families, dates or groups. We were also lucky enough to have a FABULOUS server who was so sweet and had the best energy. We ordered a few different dumplings to try, a bun, noodles in brown sauce, ribs AND at the very end the orange chicken. All the food was delicious, and delivered by a fun cat robot (our 7 year old thought this was the best part). The ribs has a sweet and tangy sauce and were just the right amount. BUT LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT THE ORANGE CHICKEN....it is literally the best I have ever had. We were not going to order it but two tables around us ordered it and it looked so good that we caved! I regret nothing, we stopped eating almost everything else on the table to enjoy these crispy chunks of tangy chicken. I am taking away a star because I honestly was not such a fan of the pork dumplings and enjoyed the bun much more. I also thought that the noodles with brown sauce and pork was lacking meat. The flavor was amazing, but it just didn't have much meat at all. I would absolutely return and look forward to trying other delicious plates! read more

Would love to give this a 3.5! I've been wanting to try this for awhile and after my brother's recommendation my boyfriend and I decided to try it. The menu was not the easiest to navigate or read. It felt kind of cluttered and minimal in options. I've only had dim sum once before and recognized some of the dishes from my past experience but they also had a lot of the Chinese dishes that you can find at your neighborhood Chinese restaurant. My boyfriend really wanted dumplings so we ordered the pork soup dumplings which were very good. I wanted the crab and cheese Rangoon- this was terrible. It was mostly dough and maybe had a 1 tsp amount of cheese filling that tasted fishy. No crab detected. Just pass on this, it was bad. We also ordered pork fried rice and sesame chicken - more basic staples. There was just two of us and the food was fairly filling but I would like to try more dumplings later ! The staff was nice but seemed very hurried. The inside was pretty and very crowded. They didn't have a drink menu so we just got water- not sure what else they had available. They also have one of those little robots and it literally pushed the entire table that was connected to ours. Obviously not very great. I think overall this has potential to be very great but maybe could use some fine tuning. They also do charge a 3% fee for credit cards - as they note upon entering. They also do takeout and the food delivery apps which also seemed to be busy! read more

Great food. Friendly fast service. Clean modern bright dining area. We ordered: pork/crab soup dumplings (6); pork soup dumplings (6); crab Rangoon (4) ; shrimp shuma(4) ; and Shanghai rib entree and bao bun (1). All were delicious. The piggy dumplings (3) were a nice custard dessert at the end. Extremely reasonable price (all of this for $62. read more

I was craving dim sum and so we ended up here. It's not quite the same dim sum experience as in Philly, but I don't mind. It is a nice break being able to order from a menu and enjoy a quieter atmosphere. Dim Sum Factory has nicely decorated interior. The service was good, including the robot delivery. The dim sum dishes were delicious. We ordered a variety of classic ones. The soup dumplings didn't disappoint. The beef brisket noodle soup, however could be a lot better. The broth isn't as flavorful. It was somewhat bland and overly sweet. The sweetness did not come from hours of cooking beef bones. Overall, we had a good experience. We will definitely come back to try new dishes. P. S. The tea we had was a rice tea of sorts. It reminded me of the ones from Korean restaurants. There should be a stronger tea option. P. S. S. The disposable chopsticks sucks. It would be nicer to have real ones. read more

Traveling the country in search of dim sum restaurants I tried this place on a visit to the Philadelphia area. The place was not too busy for a Friday lunch, with many tables available. Given the name of the restaurant, I was surprised to see not too many dim sum options. The overall quality was average, but the exciting part was watching the dim sum come out on a robot. Overall an average dim sum tasting experience with limited options. read more

WONDERFUL FOOD!!!!! We had scallion pancakes, delicious, sesame balls, the best I've had outside China town in San Francisco. We ordered the Pork soup dumplings on another Yelpers recommendation and I will get them every time I come it was that good, thank you whoever that person was. The Steamed Pork bum was excellent also. Service was super, this place did not disappoint! read more

This is really nice restaurant serving a variety of authentic dim sum as well as rice and noodle dishes. The place is not too crowded when I visited but the plaza where the restaurant is located has limited parking and pretty busy place due to the number of other shops in the plaza. The service staff was really helpful and courteous. It's a family-friendly restaurant too as I saw several families with young kids dining in there. The Cumin Fried Noodles was really nice and tasty too. The sticky rice ball dessert was really good, though I personally find it a little too sweet. But overall a great dining experience. Definitely worth coming back if I'm back in the area. read more

*Indoor dining review* Our group (10+ people) has a quarterly get together at different restaurants, this time we decided to go try Dim Sum Factory, since couple of our friends have already been here and said the food is good. While the food was good, the service was lacking...almost chaotic. Restaurant: 4/5 Service: 2/5 Food: 4/5 Parking: Free parking lot ~Restaurant~ The restaurant is decorated beautifully. It has plenty of tables for different party sizes. It also has a private party room in the back for large parties 30-40 people maybe. ~Service~ Our reservation was at 12PM on a Saturday, it was not that busy at all by the time we sat down. They take your orders via handheld tablet, and Food delivery is via Robot. There is sure sign of Chaos in the kitchen. While we might think there is no way orders would get messed up, we were very wrong. We received couple of items we did not ordered, as well as we received some how 6 orders of Pork dumplings vs just 4 Pork dumplings, 1 Crab Meat and 1 Chicken dumpling. When we checked the receipt at the end, looks like everything was correct, just the food we received was not. We decided not to mention about the food, since by the time we received our food the restaurant was pretty busy, and the food wasn't bad. If it was wrong and bad, we might have said something. ~Food~ Overall all the food were good. We order an assortment of items... couple of Shumai's, Chicken skewer and Fried Pork Chop. But majority of our orders were Soup Dumplings (Spicy Pork Dumplings, steamed crab meat pork dumplings and steamed Chicken soup dumplings.) In conclusion, If you not in Philadelphia Chinatown and would like to try Soup dumplings, this is a good place to try. But It is not as authentic compare to Dim Sum restaurants in Philly, because the menu is very limited. Example: Jade Harbor, Ocean Harbor, China Gourmet, where you would get a lot more items for a much better price. read more

Not a big fan. Probably one of the nicest restaurants of this type from the aspect of location, cleanliness and inside. And I don't like to compare. But I ordered three of my G2's here twice and both times the scallion pancakes had no scallions, they were overdone and pretty tasteless. Unfortunately, the dumpling sauce at the table I don't find very good. Perhaps they make it their selves. And again, with Asian food, there's all kinds of types and styles, but I have never seen cucumber salad look or taste like this, and it doesn't appeal, nor taste good. Finally crystal shrimp dumpling was just OK. read more

The noodles weren't to my liking. The wait was a little long. Service was pretty okay overall. The dining area was okay. Not the best, but not the worst. read more

Nice staff, quiet atmosphere, good food, byob. Will be repeat customers. They are also very busy with take out orders.

Food was tasty but I think the prices were high for the number of pieces or serving size. My noodles said pork but it was very tiny pieces of ground pork and a very small portion of meat. I wish the menu had explained this more, I wouldn't have picked this option. They do have robot servers bringing items to your table keeping with the ordinal dim sum concept but but due to value I don't see myself returning. read more

Great find! Decor is casual, fresh and modern. Nice ambiance. Acoustics make it slightly loud because of the open atmosphere. Did not detract from the experience. Servers were friendly, efficient and attentive. Spicy pork soup dumplings were delicious. Just the right amount of heat. Hong Kong style Shumai also very good. Entrees weee chicken with garlic sauce and orange chicken. Both great. My husband finished his whole dinner and thoroughly enjoyed. Orange chicken was very crispy. Quality chicken served with white rice. Definitely recommend and will be back! read more

Food and service was very good! Was so hungry that I didn't get to take a photo of our food. All of our dishes came out at a decent time and everything was so tasty. I like this location better than the Krewstown one even though it's a further drive. The inside of the restaurant was cute and warm. It has a robot server too. read more

Been dying to eat this place's food since I'm a dumpling and noodle nut case, but the food is not much better than mediocre. It took me four years to get here and afterwards I don't really care if I come back again. I ordered a metric boat load of food; spicy pork soup dumpling, beef pancake, Shanghai fried dumplings, spicy pan fried dumplings, pork soup dumplings, Shanghai triple bun, lo mai gai, chongqing chicken, Szechuan spicy beef, cumin beef, and yang chow fried rice. The Szechuan food is hard to come by but it's only Szechuan red pepper, predominantly no other flavor. As much as I love it, the taste becomes overwhelmingly bitter and metallic. Best food items were beef pancake, spicy pork soup dumpling, cumin beef, and Szechuan spicy beef. The rest I could have done without as you can find similarly tasting options from Say Wee! Service was mediocre too as we spent about $200 on what I listed plus more, and asked for the items to be labeled, but they weren't. Ambiance seemed great but we ordered take out. Looks like an upscale dining establishment you might find in NYC or Philly. read more

Dim Sum Factory offers a delightful experience with its authentic and diverse selection of dim sum. The dumplings are fresh and full of flavor, making each bite a joy. My girlfriend and I love the variety of food you can get here, but the steamed BBQ pork buns are one of out personal favorites. Service was prompt and friendly. Highly recommend for anyone looking to enjoy quality dim sum in a welcoming environment. read more

The food was expensive for takeout Chinese and the taste was not good. The oddest chicken with garlic sauce that I ever had. I normally have to restrain myself from eating too much, but not this time. Didn't finish the first serving and threw the leftovers away. read more

Food was great. Roast Pork Bun so good! This was my favorite! Pork Soup Dumpling I recommend the regular, the spicy was good but I prefer the regular. Sesame Ball with red bean delicious! Shanghai Shumai was also pretty good. Service was fast and the waiter are very pleasant! The place is clean, good parking, and great for dining experience! read more

Loved this place, though their parking lot is ridiculously crowded, even on a rainy Wednesday. There were no handicapped parking spaces ANYWHERE, & after circling for 20 minutes, I finally found a spot below the restaurant & had to climb up a flight of concrete steps in the rain. Now onto the food! It's best to go here with a few friends so you can share a variety of small plates. Four of us split 5 dishes, including 2 orders of soup dumplings, which are filled with a delicious broth that squirts into your mouth on the first bite. We also had cold noodles with sesame sauce, which were chewy & had a lot of sauce that was a little too bland for my taste. We also had chicken kabobs which had a marvelous smoked flavor & were large, tender & juicy, to my delight & surprise. We had an eggplant with garlic sauce, which had great flavor though a bit oily. All that food, plus 4 diet sodas for 4 ladies only came out to $17.00 which included tax & tip. Best of all, I got to take home the leftovers to enjoy a second meal! Food was delicious & inexpensive!! read more

Amazing food! Restaurant is super clean and staff are so friendly. Enjoyed it with my family while celebrating a birthday.

If I could give a rating any lower than this then I would. Always saw this place while driving and saw that this couple on TikTok were raving about this place. I went today to try it and orders a bunch of dishes. Let me say, when i ordered their noodles, it was not it. The noodles were cut up and not long whole noodles. We also tried their shumai and why was the wrapper thick and rubbery? It seemed like they were frozen and just reheated in the microwave. The wrapper of the soup dumplings were also the same as the shumai, very thick and rubbery. read more

Excellent food, my go to for takeout . Everything is always soo delicious and packed with care

I've had several great meals here initially but lately the food quality has diminished. I ordered the double cooked pork dish and it came with NO PORK. It was a takeout order so I didn't find out until I got home. Very disappointing. read more

We've been here a few times both dine in and take out a few times through the past two years. Unfortunately this time it failed the chicken dumplings were frozen & they didn't even heat it up properly. Those were not even lukewarm. The scallion pancakes had no scallion and was overly fried and slightly burnt. The sesame chicken was slightly burned with some black marks on the chicken. The soup dumplings were okay. read more

My first time back since the start of Covid pandemic, we missed the great quality food at dim sum factory. for the most part our return trip was just as good with one exception which I'll get to. Hands-down they are taking Covid precautions very Seriously, which I applaud. Everybody gloved, everyone masked, temperature machine on a tripod at door when you first walk in, tables are definitely separated and paper menus. One of the things that has not changed unfortunately is a language barrier with the servers, we try to get past it. Sometimes better, sometimes not so good... tonight was the latter. We started off with the must have steamed pork soup dumplings, hands-down always great, nice way to start, especially on a cold wet night. For our next course we had the Shanghai shumai, lovely presentation, worth a try But not our favorite Shumai. For our main meal, my wife and I shared the sautéed Shanghai bok choy which is always consistently good, and the dish that did not meet up to standards or expectations was the chicken with sesame. We had inquired about white meat chicken versus dark meat the server didn't understand initially and I had asked how fried the food is or how thick the coating may be and I don't think the server really understood because in the end the dish was way more fried and it was actually tough, hardly any chicken meat. I don't know if it shrunk up or what but we saw the dark meat version at another table, totally different looking more appetizing dish. so heads up, don't order the white meat if you want chicken sesame. read more

Once upon a time there was this lil soup dumpling jawn that started in an albeit shady spot near the greyhound station in Philly. The original Dim Sum Garden was nothing to look at, the sidewalk outside was frequently littered with the remnants of transients and the extended arms of vagrants. Certainly not the most curb appeal yet when you opened those doors the smell of dumplings, a hot wok and the cacophony of sounds from the busy kitchen, welcomed you in like an old friend. Back in those days the soup dumpling and many other staple dimsum fare had not gone mainstream. It was our secret lil spot with the best damn xao long bao this side of the Formosa. All of you Philly foodies know how the story goes but for those that don't... Well here's the facts and some folklore. Dimsum garden was dimsum garden before Tom's dimsum did dimsom then they moved to a bilevrl spot in Chinatown went mainstream and left the chef behind. His name was Tom and has a spot on that original space and wait for it... Has opened up a spot in Horsh called ding ding ding, Dim Sum Factory. Thank you Chef Tom. You bring your legacy to the burbs and that xiao long bao broth never tasted better. read more

Beef noodle soup is not there strong point. The broth I got was also clear which made no sense since it was a beef noodle soup. The broth had no flavor and the bowl was 90 percent noodles. The first time I tried this place I was not impressed. I decided to give them a second try thinking maybe last time the food was off but read more

5 stars! After we finished eating I said to my husband, "we need to add a line item to our budget for more Dim Sum Factory!" Tonight was our first time at Dim Sum and we're sorry it took us so long. The atmosphere is relaxed but a bit upscale. There are a handful of booth that sit in front of large windows. You'll be greater and seated by a rolling robot, which excites the kids but also adults. The robot is a fun start to a great meal. We ordered: roast pork buns, crystal shrimp dumplings, Shanghai shumai, scallion pancakes, and pork and chive dumplings (fried). Everything was hit, fresh, and flavorful. The scallion pancakes were delightfully crispy. The pork buns are the softest buns ever. We both liked the Shanghai shumai beat out of the dumpling we ordered, but that doesn't mean the other options were bad - not at all. Hard to pick favorites when it was all great. We will be back! read more

Dim Sum Factory - Horsham - Shanghainese Near Me - Horsham, Pennsylvania

Let me just take a minute to preach about how great Dim Sum Factory is EVEN IN TAKE OUT FORM! Amidst all of this COVID-19 Quarantine mess currently that's going on, I really wanted to get something that I knew would be amazing for my birthday dinner (and also #YelpsBigNightIn). I placed my order online, payed with a card to aid in their no-contact pickup and their website told me about 15 minutes. For a place that normally does dine in and take out, 15 minutes is a pretty sweet turn around time for some dinner. Anyways, I get to the restaurant and I can see through the doors that everyone's bags are sitting atop chairs in the foyer with a note that says to "please check your name and phone number" aka, please only grab you own stuff. I can see an employee through the window, he waves with his mask and gloves on, I wave grab my food and head out the door. No contact at all and everything was very simple to understand with no mix-ups. I get home and honestly the food was just as good as it is in the restaurant. I don't know why I expected any less. They never disappoint. I got Shanghai Pan Fried Pork Dumpling (5pcs), Cumin Stir-Fried Noodle w. Beef, Steamed Pork Soup Dumpling (6pcs). Everything was just phenomenal. Honestly I almost cried it was so good, or maybe I was just so dang excited to eat something other than grilled chicken and pasta at home during quarantine, haha. Either way everything was amazing, ordering and pick up was simple, quick, and easy. Can't wait until all this is over so I can dine in again! read more

Living in the city, I'll hit Chinatown quite often. Dim Sum has become one of my favorite meals. While I cannot speak to Authentic vs Americanized, I do know what I like. Overall, I liked Dim Sum Factory, especially considering the lack of other Dim Sum options in the 'burbs. The Caviar Soup Dumplings were good, but they only give you four pieces. I'd recommend just going for the crab & pork or pork soup dumplings as the caviar ones weren't that unique and you get more with the standard. The Shanghai Shumai are made with sticky rice. I really enjoyed them, but they are more rice than other filling. I think they also offer shrimp shumai. The Squid with Salted Pepper was my favorite dish of the day. Decent quantity and good quality on the squid. They could have been a bit crispier, but really not complaining. Rounding things out, service was friendly, prices were in line, and pace was quick. It might not be city quality Dim Sum, but it was good. I'd recommend a visit. read more

I went to Dim Sum factory for the first time today for lunch after my soccer game with a friend. We were a bit underdressed, and I would probably try to look a little nicer for my next visit as it was a bit less casual than some dim sum places I have been to in the past. Everything I tried was really delicious, and above average dim sum. I probably would've tried more had they had the traditional dim sum carts for me to see more items, but I definitely didn't leave hungry (or with leftovers, but again, I just played soccer and was very hungry). It was decently busy for lunchtime but no wait and some open tables, and my only "complaint" would be feeling a little rushed by the servers. I look forward to returning and exploring the menu some more and getting the soup dumplings, shumai, dumplings, and steamed buns again. read more
