Loved the experience- loved the food. We have had dim sum a few times, but I didn’t know what each of the items were and there is a picture book on the counter where you order that shows pictures of each item. Very helpful ! we can’t wait to come back again!

128 Dim Sum is hands down one of the most authentic and delicious Chinese dining experiences in the Lehigh Valley. Some menu items were already sold out by the time we arrived—which honestly just gives us the perfect excuse to go back again.
I highly recommend trying at least one item from each section of the menu. The dim sum itself is phenomenal, fresh, and FULL of flavor.
The space is small, so you may end up ordering and taking your meal to go, but if you’re lucky enough to snag a seat, it’s absolutely worth it. Service is quick, friendly, and dishes come out as soon as they’re ready—no particular order. Efficient.
A must-visit for anyone craving truly authentic Chinese cuisine.

I love it here! Food is delicious, love the shrimp rice rolls, buns, soup dumplings and beef noodle soup.
Great atmosphere, intricate wooden carvings and decor.

128 Dim Sum is an authentic Chinese restaurant specializing in traditional dim sum. Located on East Broad Street in Bethlehem, it’s open Thursday through Monday from 11:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with a one hour break from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM.
My brother and I stopped in for lunch for the first time this past Friday. With the cold air settling in and snow on the way, it was the perfect day for hot soup and dim sum.
We shared a selection of dishes, including sui mai king (plump, open-topped dumplings filled with shrimp), corn and chicken dumplings, delicate soup dumplings, pork buns filled with sweet, tender pork, and a shrimp steamed rice roll.
After we finished the dim sum dishes, we moved onto the noodles. I ordered the beef noodle soup, and my brother went with the shrimp wonton noodles.
All the food was fresh and flavorful, the owner was warm and welcoming, and the prices were very reasonable. Our entire meal came to under $55.

Solid mom and pop spot with limited seating. Food was made to order and I really enjoyed everything. Will be going back again soon

A beautifully decorated, quaint Chinese restaurant with FLAVORFUL authentic food!
My girlfriend and I ordered the cabbage and pork dumplings, pork soup dumplings, shrimp wonton noodle soup, and fresh shrimp wonton soup. We are HUGE dim sum lovers and have eaten at many dim sum locations. We were exceptionally pleased with everything we ordered! The pork soup dumplings and pork dumplings were packed with so much flavor! The shrimp wontons in the soups had so much flavor alone and the broth was delicious! I highly recommend coming here as dine in for your first experience! Such a great ambience!
We will be frequent returners!

I offer this review within the context of having grown up eating items that appear on the menu. So, for good or bad, my standards are based on a 50 years of having really good and some really bad dim sum.
The atmosphere is actually quite nice. It’s a small establishment but given the novelty of this food for this region, it makes sense that the owners chose a smaller foot print. So, be warned if you’re going with a large party; it may be difficult to find seating. But, please also understand that restaurant owners take huge risks in opening up something as novel (to this area) as this is. The dining area is nicely decorated in “traditional” flair. It’s comforting.
Service is prompt and the server was friendly. It wasn’t busy when I went.
One doesn’t typically go to dim sum by themselves but I tried the place on my own. It’s a food you typically share with others (like tapas). So, I only ordered the fish ball noodle soup, sui mui, and egg tart. The soup base could have used a little more salt but the noodles and the fish balls were more than fine. It takes a little longer to get the sui mui (12 minutes); this is a great sign since it meant that it was freshly made (or, at least made from an uncooked state, as opposed to pre-cooked and frozen). The sui mui was flavorful, tender, and juicy (note, I ate one before I took the photo below). Top notch, in my book! The egg tart was decent. It could have been baked just a little longer.
All in all. This was a good experience and I would go back. Will try the sticky rice next time. I’ll even bring along some others to try out other dishes.
Enjoy.

I was excited that a dim sum spot was opening in the area. I really wanted to like it. But unfortunately the food’s not good. I can’t in good faith recommend 128 in its current state. The lo mai gai’s the only thing I’d get again. They’re newly opened so I believe they will improve, but they better do it fast.
The wonton noodle soup might as well be in water, and the noodle had zero chew whatsoever. The shumai filling needed to be kneaded a good deal more, as it was crumbly rather than bouncy, and it needed some aroma. The tripe was devoid of salt. The chicken feet needed to be steamed for several more hours, as the skin and connective tissues have not even begun to transform into gelatin. The xiao long bao had a thick pasty skin and hardly any soup inside.
Dim sum’s really difficult to make so we should offer them some grace. The restaurant’s an ambitious undertaking. This review is harsh, yes, but someone had better say it. Being aware of a problem is the first step to fixing it.

Me and my husband ordered about half the menu and we were so hungry that i only ended up taking some pictures but i definitely recommend the rice noodles rolls (one of the best we have had), soup dumplings, chicken feet and tripe in chili oil not pictured. The interior design reminds me old school chinese restaurant vibes to the tables, stools, and decor. It definitely a mom and pop shop, only couple tables; four top, and couple two tops. After moving from new york to Pennsylvania, really hard to find dim sum in Pennsylvania and yes, the menu limited but the owners are cooking and serving which makes sense why they changed or took off some items to make it more manageable i believe. They speak english and cantonese. I’m glad we found this spot to cure our dim sum fix . We would definitely come back.
