This late-night gem serves a massive menu of Cantonese and Shanghai dim sum, all with delicious drinks and a lively atmosphere perfect for sharing.
"The most flavorful bang for your buck is at this amazing hotspot that’s located in both University City and Rittenhouse. Speciality cocktails and sake bombs for $7, alongside happy hour bites (such as salt & pepper wings, crystal shrimp dumplings, roast pork bao, panfry chicken dumplings, and more) for $6." - Ernest Owens
"This Jane G restaurant serves Cantonese and Shanghai dim sum as well as notable dishes from the Jiang Nan (South East) region of China. Diners can try eat their sticky rice, curry chicken dumplings, vegan friendly vegetable bao buns, and more." - Ernest Owens, Diana Lu
"There aren’t many options for dim sum in University City, which makes Dim Sum House super useful. We typically bring a group and go for the scallion pancakes or honey-vinegar spare ribs, plus a couple of spring rolls and golden egg tarts. So come with a few people, engulf some wontons in chili oil. You can make reservations ahead of time, in case you don't want to risk having to wait for dim sum elsewhere in the city." - candis mclean
"With a dim sum menu longer than our DVR list after a three-week vacation, it may be hard for your friends to decide between truffle edamame lobster sticky rice or eggplant in garlic sauce when ordering at this University City spot. But if your group comes here hungry, you should go for all those dishes, plus a few noodle plates and a round of their crunchy salt and pepper wings. With massively long tables throughout the dining space, you could probably fit your extended family and their extended family in here, if everyone’s down for some soup dumplings and scallion pancakes." - Candis Mclean
"Right in the heart of University City is a little slice of the Jiang Nan region of China. The space offers a swanky feel with dim lighting, tufted leather booths, and a pool table. Dim Sum House is open for lunch or dinner featuring both Shanghai and Cantonese styles of dim sum. Expect truffle edamame dumplings, shrimp siu mai, honey-vinegar spare ribs, dan dan noodles, and bao buns." - Caroline Coral, Ernest Owens
