Dim Sum Factory - Krewstown

Ordered takeout from here. Very easy to find and park in a strip off the street. Inside is decorated very cute, would love to come back and dine in. Was greeted as soon as I walked in and my pick up order was ready. Ordered a bunch of things to try. The duck noodle soup with Shanghai noodles was very good! (Be prepared for bones, it is not duck breast!) The pickled greens are a great addition. The Shanghai pork dumplings were great. Soft bun outside. Sweet dumpling sauce. The string beans with minced pork were pretty good, could've used more salt.. Would've loved some pickled greens in there too. Yam pancakes were a great texture and just the right touch of sweetness. I would definitely come back here next time I'm in town.

Not your typical Dim Sum restaurant-but tasty nonetheless. No pushcart, order from a menu with plenty of choices.

I got take out with pork and seafood dumplings. Some of the soup was lost but the flavor was delicious. The spicy tendon was too salty, didn't finish it. The beef noodle soup was good. The Peking duck wasn't good as take out. Next time we will dine in so we can have all the soup in the dumplings.

When did Dim Sum Factory open in NE? Never know their existence until recently. For whatever reasons, these dim sum places is not flourishing in NE Philly. The two other dumpling/dim sum restaurants on Castor Avenue didn't survive before and after covid. I really do hope this place does. I was really craving for soup dumplings one day and it was the only thing I would eat. Google and found Dim Sum Factory of Krewstown. Order XLB, Shanghai Shuimai, and Roast Duck Noodle Soup. The Pork Soup Dumplings and Shanghai Shuimai definitely hits the spot. It was so good that I barely wants to eat the noodle soup lol. I guess I'm a little biased after eating XLB because the noodle soup didn't taste too well, it was kinda bland. Our take out was really good last time, that we decided to dine in. I'm so glad that DSF is open on Christmas Day. I have to order XLB and Shanghai Shuimai again. Along with Scallion Pancake and Beef Pancake. XLB, Shuimai, and Scallion Pancakes were definitely delicious. I don't know what's that green vegetable they put in Beef Pancake, not scallion or cilantro, it got a really weird taste to them. Hubby order General Tso's Shrimp which he says is ok. I end our meal with Sweet Rice Pudding. Some part of the rice pudding were hard as rock, maybe didn't heat up too well? Won't be getting those again. Definitely will return for their dim sum menus.

Found this place when randomly looking for some dim sum. Went on a Saturday, after the lunch hrs, and found it to be empty, yet still inviting. We tried several different dumplings, which were all delicious. It is BYOB, but that didn't detract from the offerings, more like made it more enjoyable. Don't pass this place up, it's worth the visit.

Went here as a group of 3. Went across the street and bought coolers from the beer store. This place has a BYOB policy. Ended up spending about 70 bucks for 3 people and although the portions were small, it was all very tasty and very filling. Lots of choices of small items. Friendly young lady. Not busy. Food served in a good time.

Finally made it to the dim sum Krewstown location. We tried to go another time when it first opened and it was closed. This time they were open and it was not that busy so we were able to get a seat. The place is really clean and the food was pretty solid. I was pleasantly surprised on how fast the food came out. We got some beef noodles, walnut shrimp, seafood udon soup, beef skewers, and pork dumpling soup. Everything was hot fresh and delicious! I'm so glad this place is so close by, my son loves the beef and noodles and he is usually a picky-eater. Again so satisfied with the service and food and plan to come again bringing my daughter also. Great food and the price was good too. Look forward to coming again.

This is the same as Dim Sum Factory Horsham and Tom dim sum in Chinatown! Due to the location, it's not as busy/crowded as the other two locations which is fine with me (less noise). It's in a small plaza with a parking lot so parking isn't a problem. Food taste delicious but we did have to wait awhile for it and service was good. The staff is very funny and friendly. Couple more dishes that I forgot to take photos of. Overall: delicious food, reasonable price, friendly staff, has a parking lot - will come back since it's so close to me too.

Dim Sun Factory is another of the local chain of Shanghainese small plate restaurants in the greater Philadelphia area. This one is in the Bustleton part of the city just off Grant Avenue & Krewstown Pike. The dining room is attractive in gray brick and Chinese wall art, while the menu is not the traditional dim sum with all small dishes toted in carts pushed by old ladies, rather everything is ordered from the menu which is both dim sum and regular full plated offerings. We ordered the following: 1. XLB Soup Dumplings, 2. Crystal Shrimp Dumplings, 3. Double Cooked Pork, 4. Cucumber Salad and 5. Fried Pork Chops. Everything was from fairly decent to quite good, with highest grades for the XLB, Double Cooked Pork and Cucumber Salad, and somewhat lesser impression of the Crystal Dumplings and the Pork Chop bring up the rear. The problem there was that it wasn't a pork chop at all, but instead more like Japanese Katsu - breaded/deep fried filet of lesser quality than anticipated. Part of it just couldn't be eaten due to over frying to a dark burn and some cartilage hidden within. Service was fine, although someone needs to remind them that this is Philadelphia, not New York, and wearing Yankee caps during the World Series in 2022 is just not appropriate right now before the 6th game with the Fightin's down 3-2 to the Astros. I guess my bright red P hat didn't mean anything to them. 3.5 STARS

Located in an unassuming strip mall. Really good suburban spot for soup dumplings!And to think you don't have to go downtown.The ambience is clean and modern.
