Dream House Asian Bistro

Their Thai food tastes like Indian food in a baby diaper wrapped in burnt hair. I think they catch the sushi by fishing off of Kelly Drive.
The Chinese food is standard. The fortune cookies are pretty wild. Mine said «you will find your keys in the last place you look for them.» Is that even a fortune?
On the plus side, it’s fast and pretty cheap. As long as you don’t mind the dysentery.
Godspeed Dream House Asian Bistro. Godspeed.

Why do bad things happen to good people?
My friend and I ordered what we thought would be Thai food from Dream House. We received the photo below…
— «Pad Thai»
— «Drunken Noodles»
Both tasted exactly the same. Essentially, they were two different variations of noodles (one was thin and one was thick) smothered in the same exact sauce — which was identical to the taste of Russian dressing (mayo and ketchup mixed flavor… puke — this does not belong on Thai food). I ordered my drunken noodles with shrimp — and ALL the shrimp were never even deveined or at least attempted to be cleaned — they all still had their thick shrimp poo clearly visible to the human eye.
My friends, this is not a case of me being Asian and thus, my standards for Asian food would be higher. No no… the food at Dream House is just straight awful and appalling to my tastebuds.
I’d rather go to McDonald’s. In fact, they should probably just serve McDonald’s on the menu. That way, at least something would be palatable.

I’ve seen this place at least a few hundred times and never went inn, till other day when I was dying for Asian .
Upon coming inn the place was empty ok I guess for day time, so I placed an order for green curry with chicken and the chicken on the stick, I decided to dine inn rather than take out, which I’m glad I did .
It took a while to get my order out I was super hungry, when the waiter bought it to me it looked weird completely not what I ordered it was some type of clear like sauce with big prices of chicken huge chunks of mushrooms onion & green peppers, than my chicken on stick looked over fried and dry which is supposed to be grilled ! This was something new they created. The waiter refused to take the food back, and refund my money, even after I told him I can show him the recipe on Google. After I threatened to get the police and better business bureau involved he finally, gave me my money back .
Simply put plz don’t ! There’s other places on ridge you can go to and save the headache !

5 star for the delivery via grub hub. their rolls are delicious and very fresh. can’t wait to visit the restaurant with a few bottles of wine and a cab ride home (:

Ordered sushi while having a serious craving and being stuck home with the flu. I order the dinner special of spicy roll combo. I get the same roll tripled. It tasted ok don’t get me wrong, but not what the menu described. I called to let them know perhaps they made a mistake and they tell me, no they all look the same and it’s hard for you to tell the difference? Seriously– not my first sushi experience but so disheartening and annoying. Ugh! Not sure I’ll order from there again.

My wife and I eat here often enough to say it’s the best Chinese food by far in the area. Egg drop and sushi are excellent. And we enjoy most of their menu.

I had the tiger roll and wonton soup and my roommate ordered sweet and sour chicken. Both delicious. Fast delivery

I am being very generous with one star. This place has really bad food and it made both myself and my boyfriend sick. We got two pork egg rolls, General tso and Hunan chicken. Just please do yourself a favor and don’t go here. Try another Chinese place in manayunk/​rox.

First time comment at Unilocal.Awesome sushi! I am a sushi lover and I try out a lots of Japanese restaurants in philly. This restaurant is awesome! Highly recommend out of control roll! It’s my favorite! The service is great. They are so friendly! The sashimi is very fresh. Love it!

Tonight I ordered 2 rolls. I was disappointed to find that the rolls were loaded with Panko crumbs. I actually like Panko however in this case the crumbs appeared to be a filler to make the rolls look bigger. The menu never stated that the rolls had the crumbs in them. Not thrilled!

Yikes. On the real this one was a bad find and try on my part.
Ordered:
— Sashimi Appetizer
— Sushi/​Sashimi Combo (comes with choice of soup or salad)
*chose the salad
Review:
Started with the salad and will say basic lettuce from a bag most likely but was elevated by the ginger salad sauce. The sauce was delicious! So whatever about the basic salad.
Now the Sashimi appetizer and the Sushi/​/​Sashimi combo is what brought down the stars for this review. With every bite I was taking of the raw fish, I was nervous because the taste was on the point where the portions are borderline/​on the verge of being spoiled and rotten. I was nervous… Just almost force feeding myself cause the salmon didn’t taste good, but just like at edible…
Basically what I’m trying to say is there are definitely other places to get sushi from and I will not be returning to this place for it. Pricey. Sitting on the edge of my seat while trying to eat. Didn’t enjoy it.
Bummer.

No No No! Never Ever again. WARNING: extremely high % chance of food poisoning. Un-​fresh fish, un-​fresh rice, and un-​fresh lettuce. On top of that they’re rude as Heck! Will never give them anymore of my business. They’re simply trying to get over on people, serving the lowest quality of food that they can find. I should have known, as soon as we walked in my 8 year old daughter complained of the smell. Disappointed that I have to give them even 1 star.

Disgusting disgusting disgusting! Old rice, old fish. I’ve never had a poorer tasting sushi than there’s ever! I could not finish my roll before my stomach was turning. By the time my friend and I got home we were both running to the toilet! In fact I am still sick writing this review. Once I called them to warn them of the bad fish they’re serving the man was rude, unhelpful, and unaccommodating. Will never return! And I hope you won’t either. Unfortunately I have to give them 1 star so I can post this

The nastiest Thai food ever. I had their chicken drunken noddle. I took to bites that was not chicken. It was chewy and rubbery!!! I will never eat their again
The owner refused to give me a refund. They lost a customer. I recommend people elsewhere for quality Asian cuisine.

Torn between 3 and 4 stars for this place. Let’s say 3 and ½.
The sushi I had here was pretty good. I like their 3-​roll dinner special that comes with soup or a salad.
However, I tried their Thai this week and was unimpressed. My roommate and I had the Chicken Pad Thai and Shrimp Drunken Noodles. First, the good: Portions are huge and the prices are good. I also appreciated that the shrimp in the drunken noodles were rather large and they didn’t skimp there. That’s where the good ends though. The sauces were overly sweet for my tastes, and I think they could have had more flavor overall. I was missing some heat. No big deal though — I just added some siracha. I can understand not making the base dish too hot since customers can just add their own spice to their preference. But I also thought the noodles in the drunken noodles were a tad overcooked. I would prefer smaller portions in exchange for more flavorful dishes.
I have ordered from here a couple of times and will probably come again, but I think I’ll stick to the sushi from now on.

I love Dream House Asian Bistro! When I moved to Roxborough, I tried several Asian restaurants to replace my former go-​to Chinese place that I was ordering from for 7 years while in Fairmount. Most of them fell extremely short on the quality of food, service and the price until I discovered Dream House (as I have appropriately nick-​named it)!
They have an extensive menu and I have tried everything from their Chinese to Thai to Japanese cuisine and it has all been wonderful. My favorite selection has become their sushi. It is always fresh, delicious and less expensive than any place around! (Again, much disappointment from the other Manayunk/​Roxborough «sushi» restaurants that either have been over-​priced or served old fish.)
I will not go anywhere else for Asian cuisine in this area and it’s not just because of their food, but because of their service. Jerry and Kevin are two of the most friendly, hard-​working and community-​driven people I know and I am proud to call the my local Asian restaurant!

I can’t get enough of their sushi. I literally order from here all the time when I’m in the area. Got a ton of food for a movie date. Ate so much that my belly was going to burst. I see the complaints on here but disagree highly with these other people. I haven’t been able to find another sushi place like this for the price. Can’t wait for my next order of Volcano rolls.

The general tso’s chicken tastes like an old shoe. Disgusting. And the pork fried rice was also terrible.
The salad with ginger dressing was amazing though.

Always skeptical about a takeout asian place that does japanese and thai too. I haven’t tried the thai but chinese is eh, and sushi is eh. We’ve gotten take out from here 3 times now and have never been too impressed. Think that was the last time we’ll give it a go.
We got chinese last night and the wonton soup had nothing in it besides wonton. where the pork at guys? My kung pao was a bit bland. I would say the fried rice is better than average take out though. My boyfriend got general tsao’s chicken that was pretty typical and just goop.
Sushi was really not as bad as I was expecting. Nothing great, but still fresh and hit the sushi crave spot.
They are fast and friendly though so I’ll give them a thumbs up to service and decent prices.

We left the suburbs where we had a great Asian fusion restaurant that we loved where we could get Chinese, Japanese, and Thai food. We tried this restaurant today and we were mildly happy.
There was only one other person in the restaurant when we arrived, which I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or a bad thing… The waiters were attentive enough, but not the best servers. The food was pretty good.
I had egg drop soup, which was really delicious – the best egg drop I’ve had in a while. The crab Rangoon was really good, too, although their duck sauce was kind of weird and red, rather than the usual orange I’m used to. I was super excited to try the cheesesteak egg roll, but it was gross – the meat was gray and it had no cheese and no good flavor. I had the drunken noodles with chicken and it was pretty good and flavorful – the noodles were cooked well. The serving was huge and I took most of it home. My wife had sushi and said she enjoyed it.
The place could’ve put the air conditioner on some more, though! It wasn’t a particularly hot day, but it was really warm in the restaurant, which made it pretty uncomfortable.
All in all, we would eat their food again, but probably would get take out. The prices are reasonable as well.
