" I had a great time at Nom Wah! The menu offers a variety of authentic dim sum dishes, which made our meal exciting. The pork soup dumplings and the spicy shrimp dumplings were my favorites. The staff was attentive, and we never felt rushed. I’m definitely coming back for another round of dumplings! Will also try more of their teas next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious! Although it can get busy, the food was worth the wait. The shrimp dumplings were fantastic and had just the right amount of seasoning. The service was okay, but I expected a bit more attention from the staff. Still, an enjoyable experience overall - I would recommend it to anyone looking for solid dim sum. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a delightful experience! My friends and I visited Nom Wah during our trip to Philly, and the food absolutely wowed us. Everything tasted fresh and flavorful. The pork bun was huge and delicious. I really appreciated the swift service too. The only complaint would be that the place is a bit cramped, but the quality of food makes up for it. I would recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" Nom Wah is a great spot for first-timers trying dim sum. The menu was easy to navigate, with pictures that helped a lot! I loved the tofu skin rolls, but the spicy shrimp dumplings were definitely the star of the show. The service was great, and the environment was cozy. I thought the portion sizes were a bit smaller for the price, but overall a fantastic experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had an amazing brunch at Nom Wah last weekend. We tried several dishes, and the standout was definitely the lobster dumplings – they were exquisite! The ambiance was nice and really felt intimate, perfect for a gathering of close friends. While the service was somewhat slow, it was friendly, and that made it worth it. I can certainly see myself becoming a regular here. " (*Curated Review*)

" Nom Wah was recommended by a friend, and I couldn't have been happier with my meal. The dim sum was authentic and fresh, and the atmosphere was cozy. The only downside was that the restaurant got quite packed, leading to a slightly longer wait for food. Nevertheless, the flavors and quality of the dishes made it worthwhile. " (*Curated Review*)
