" Really enjoyed our lunch here! Thought the atmosphere felt cozy and relaxed, which made for an enjoyable meal. The dumplings were generally delicious, although a few were a bit greasier than I expected. Overall a solid choice for a dim sum fix, but not the best I've had. Would give it another shot. " (*Curated Review*)

" I was looking forward to trying Nom Wah based on great reviews, but it did not meet my expectations. While the dumplings were passable, they lacked the bold flavors I was hoping for. The service was fine, but the overall experience felt underwhelming. I'm not sure I would return unless I hear of significant improvements. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great dining experience! The dim sum here is really good, and everything we tried was fresh and expertly prepared. The waitstaff was very courteous and helpful. I absolutely loved their spicy dishes, but I did note that some dishes were a bit oily. If you're a fan of dim sum, you'd be happy here! " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely delighted with my experience at Nom Wah! The food came out promptly, and each dish was bursting with flavor. The soup dumplings were incredibly delicious and full of broth. The pork buns were also something special. I just loved the casual vibe of the spot, perfect for enjoying a relaxed meal. Exceptionally good place for dim sum lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Not as great as I expected. The food was decent, but I didn't find it very authentic. The service was decent, but the ambience felt somewhat off compared to other dim sum places I've frequented. I’d suggest trying their signature dumplings if you're curious. Overall, I left feeling somewhat disappointed. " (*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*)
