We had a great time at DanDan in Wayne, PA. Food was delicious and flavorful. We always order their pork dumplings everytime we visit and it always tastes great! Servers are prompt and attentive. There's outdoor seating and ample parking available. read more

The food and service here are always good. They also have a patio (outdoor seating), which is super cool if you want to have a little date night, sit outside, enjoy the weather, and have a drink with good food. read more

Very good food, I usually order takeout but it's definitely best eaten there. Dan Dan noodles are classic with many great dishes to explore on the menu. I'll always be back. TIL next time, bob b. read more

Great environment, food is also great. I didn't see any Asian faces in the store crews, however, the taste is authentic Asian food. Good combination of American service and Asian food. read more

Food is fine and I do not like their service since total 3 tables , the Asian waitress did not even come over to say hi , after 7-8 mins she asked another bar waitress and serve us. Feel disappointed with their service and the manager really should check on their people hired. read more

Just ate here and honestly I'm so sad because I heard such great things from so many people. It's right next to my gym and I pass it everyday. I'm currently home feeling sick. I don't know if it's the food or just a mind thing but I'll start from the beginning about my experience. On my receipt I believe our servers name was Hunter, such a kind guy. He had curly hair and gave his suggestions on the food. He mentioned he loves spice I def trusted him and I'm not saying he didn't deliver he's great he suggested what I was already looking at. Ordered the tumeric fried chicken wings with the house made cilantro mayo which was good. Also ordered the happy Madison chicken wonton soup. Also excellent soup! Entrees were pickled sichuan fish & salt & white pepper crispy chicken. This is where I became dissatisfied. The chicken tasted so good then when I looked down I noticed it wasn't fully cooked. The dish texture was so off I picked it up with my chopsticks and it just flopped. It just wasn't right. I tried it anyways and realized it was way past my spice level so I asked if there was anything we could do about it. I honestly water a different entree at that point but it wasn't suggested. The waiter got the manager and the manager came with two solutions. It came back not as spicy which was great but the texture still wasn't sitting right with me. I tried and I just couldn't stomach it but didn't have the heart to keep having the manager come to the table. It felt embarrassing. I would try to come back and maybe get completely different orders but then I thought about the Brussels sprouts (just ok) and the drinks... again just okay. I feel like they definitely are good to most people but I've traveled a lot and have had amazing food this just missed every mark in my opinion. I love the ambiance of the place. Seemed to be a good atmosphere. The seating options outside were nice. Having the door open when the weather was nice this evening was great as well. It's just I feel like if I return back to this place I'll feel like I've wasted money twice. I just recently had another place with a similar menu that tops this place and the price was better. I'm so disappointed now everyday I drive by it my stomach will probably turn! read more

Dan Dan - Aromatic Hot Pot w/ Beef and Szechuan beef and Szechuan Fried Rice - Taiwanese Near Me - Wayne, Pennsylvania

Unfortunately, a long time customer, but noticing they are going down hill on several fronts. (at least when it comes to Wayne, PA) I have been a loyal customer of Dan Dan for 5 years now. Food is typically good and consistent, but either mgmt, is slacking, they're getting cheap, or they don't care anymore. 1. For the price of your food/entrees, you have to include white rice for each meal. Lately, it has either been missing, only comes with a little bit, or its hard and old. C'mon guys. Who eats Chinese food without white rice most of the time? It needs to be included and it needs to be fresh. I spend $80-$120 on an average take out order and you can't include a small box of white rice with each entree (that tastes fresh) like you used to? 2. STOP with the 15-25% tips screens for take out orders. YOU HAVE lost customers b/c of this and are about to lose me. Take out customers should not even be asked about a tip and if you are, why are your 3 prompts for 15, 20 and 25% and not $1, $5, ad $10? So, I have a take out order of $200 and you expect $50 for putting it in a bag and handing it to me? Really? Many times the order is wrong or missing something, I am not tipping you that much for take out, if at all Please, get back to your roots. Give customers a complete meal with a complete experience and stop with the iPad with the tip harvesting at the front door. Its embarassing for you. read more

Went with friends for a Saturday early evening dinner, with a reservation, and had a great meal. Service was friendly and attentive throughout, and much of what we ordered was really good. I had heard quite a bit about Dan Dan and their city location, and we enjoyed. Beer list was solid, cocktails were good, and ordering and sharing was the right play. My spicy steak with vegetables was good, but not exceptional. Some of the plates were more heat spice than flavor spice, but we enjoyed and I would absolutely return. Very lovely time! read more

The food was ok. I ordered the cumin lamb with hand pulled noodles. They ran out of noodles so it took extra time to make, and when it an arrived they gave me chicken instead of lamb. The noodles were good but the cumin flavor didn't go well with the chicken, and the dish was a little wet for my taste. The spicy fries were good and hot, and not too spicy. I felt it was a little pricey for the portions overall. read more

Ok, a few family and friends went and this is what we got: Chicken and shrimp Shumai - very good 3 Cup Chicken - good (my wife's is the best) Cumin Lamb Hand-Ripped Noodles - outstanding. Everyone's fav but it's spicy! Jing Jiang Beef - very good. Scallions nice touch DanDan Noodles with chicken - meh Dry Pot Shrimp - good. I didn't try this one Dessert - excellent. Some fried thing with red bean and a dipping sauce. Big hit I also had a Sangria which was ok. Hope this helps. Service was very good. I would definitely go back when we are in the area. read more

Food was delicious! We got the homestyle fish, HH dan dan noodles, dry pepper chicken, and cumin lamb noodles. My favorites were the fish and chicken, but everything was flavorful and cooked well. Comparing this to other Sichuan restaurants in the area I do think the dishes are on the milder side so it would be good for people who can't handle spice as well, but I do feel like it was less greasy than other places like Chengdu which I prefer. My personal favorite Sichuan spot is Forever in KOP there's more spice and not too greasy. Since we ordered from the HH menu we were placed in the lounge but were seated in the corner which caused the waiter to forget about us. Service could've been more attentive especially since we primarily ordered on the normal dinner menu. read more

"JUST TELL ME". White rice no longer comes with your entree. But we did take out for a family dinner only to have 5 entrees and NO rice. When i called the restaurant they didnt apologize only to find out that as of 1 ago it is no longer included. Thats fine - but just tell me!! So disappointed wont return! read more

They provided my one year old with a booster seat that had no straps. We were seated on a table with bar stools and my son ended up falling off the booster seat and hitting his head. Not a single staff had the compassion to come check on us and make sure he was okay. Will not be going back read more

I admit I'm picky when it comes to trying Chinese cuisines. When my dining party wanted to have an impromptu lunch here, I was initially a bit hesitant, but eventually caved. In the end, I'm glad I stopped by! The waiting staff were very friendly, and service was prompt and attentive. I had also just purchased a tub of ice cream from a local farm, and they were very kind letting me borrow the freezer while we dined there. I have to say the food was delicious. There were a lot of Taiwanese dishes, so if you like Chinese food but are looking for more of a Taiwanese spin, this is a good place to try. The menu is in both English and Chinese, so it's helpful having bilingual reading options for the table. As it was a late lunch, it wasn't too crowded. The restaurant has a large, modern interior, so I imagine it can get quite busy during peak hours. I'd look forward to visiting again at night some time! read more

Came here on a Saturday night to pick up to-go. The restaurant was packed when I arrived but they had my order all ready to go so I was in and out. I ordered the Spicy Beef Hand-Ripped Noodles. I have to say, not worth it and was rather unimpressed with this dish. The noodles texture was ok, nothing special. The beef was cooked just fine, I just believe this dish lacked a lot of flavor. I wouldn't order again. I also ordered the Dan Dan Noodles to share as an appetizer. Wow, I wished I had ordered that as my main entree. It came with flour-lo mein, sesame paste, soy sauce, chili oil, minced pork, and scallions. The flavor of this noodle was rich and perfectly flavored. I love the little kick to this dish and definitely reasonably priced. Overall, I find this place ok, wouldn't necessarily go out of my way for but if close by, pretty good spot to have lunch or dinner. My entree and my boyfriend's entree ended not being very great but the Dan Dan noodles is something I'd definitely come back for. read more

Walked in--basic to almost no greeting. By the time I sat down, Bobby the busboy dashed in, dropped two tap waters, and disappears. I noticed what was perhaps black pepper. Nope--a dead fly parked right on my plate. I've had snails, but Escflygot? Yuck. Bobby reappears, clears the table next to me then sets new dishware--with same hands. Yuck. Seeing that I wanted to ask for new silverware but what's the point? Knock knock? Who's there? No one--15 minutes into this hygiene disaster. I said, "Five more minutes." But after two--and too many staff walking by, looking, then leaving--I knew like when my dad went for cigarettes when I was five... no one was coming back. I double-checked my Apple Maps. Yup, I was at the right spot. Only the word favorite seemed to be missing. I notify management. A waiter finally shows up. He brought an apology but forgot to his name, the menu, the specials--pretty much everything else. "Do you have Diet Coke?" I asked. "Yes." "One, please. The lamb. Bok choy. And wontons in chili oil, also please." "Would you like brown rice or white?" Offended I replied, "Brown or white... I'm not a riceist. I'll have both. Why, thank you very much." He seemed perplexed. But I wanted to be very clear I'm a fan of both rices. In fact, I love all rices of people. "And might I trouble you for a fly-free plate, please?" "Oh yes, of course." He returned with a Pepsi. No plate. Maury Povich's voice filled my head. "When it comes to whether that is a Pepsi--you said it was Diet Coke--the lie detector test determined... that was a lie." Wontons arrive, dropped off by Bobby the busboy's hands. I thought to myself, Just please don't put a finger in it. Still no dish. Perhaps my napkin will do. Since my waiter had vanished, Bobby-as-waiter would have to do. He was now cleaning the table next to me. Somewhere in his fire drill of unsanitary resetting, he kindly obliged me with a plate. Bobby's table now sloshed with mystery liquid. Perfect here comes the hostess not to correct the slip-and-slide soaking the dining room, but to seat an unsuspecting couple in it. She said, "They just cleaned it," in a frail attempt to either convince them--or herself--that it was okay. She neither dried the table nor moved them elsewhere. Instead, she opted to do what any young person nowadays does... nothing. Our main course arrives--so does a second busboy. Bobby #2. He attempts to take away my chopsticks but fumbles. No apology. Just nervous--and more rattled than I am. He absconds from restaurant justice as I abscond to the men's room, covered in red chili oil. I laughed as I tried to prevent a frivolous dry-cleaning bill--and the embarrassment of going into the men's room with a dry crotch and coming out with a soaking wet one. Upon my return, I swiped a new napkin and silverware--as we all know how this story's going. To my surprise, new chopsticks--no, not on a napkin or a dish, but directly on the table. The food arrives. The waiter asks if there's anything else. White rice..? But if he won't say it, neither will I. Dan Dan food NEVER disappoints. The staff? Well, that's another story. It was delicious. Meal finished. The waiter retrieves the bill as Bobby #3 arrives. As he stacks a pile of dishes, he realizes he's doing it wrong, unloads, makes a mess, re stacks and leaves. As they say--red chili "X" marks the spot--on the table and in my lap--is exactly where the waiter places the bill. I don't know his name, or where my white rice is, but I do know you never put a bill on a dirty table. Bullseye. I guess you do. With two fingers, I pick it up like a diaper, drop a CC in it, and say, "Why not?" as I place it back down in the red chili. After all, who am I to try and evolve the hygiene code here? Waiter returns, swipes, thanks us, and says good night. No white rice??? Sad. I sigh. Bobby #3 returns just as I'm getting up to leave. To clean the table? Nope. Instead, he says the first thing that's made sense in the past hour. "Would you like a water refill?" Will I return to Dan Dan? Absolutely. Why, you might ask? Because no matter how badly they dropped the ball--or red chili in my lap--the owner is a true gentleman who makes absolutely amazing food. He cares, and it shows. Hard to find nowadays. Now, while I may be Jewish and this might sound like a complaint--I promise: I ran out of those somewhere between parking and walking in. I'll be back. The food truly is-- (Interrupted) Uh--sorry, I gotta go... my white rice just got here. ...Amazing. read more

very pricey... decent for gluten free options but struggled with egg allergy. Only had 1 protein option without egg. Duck. Meal came out super salty ( I like salt.). Took saying something twice for them to offer to remake, much better second time. Just kills the experience to wait to eat while others are eating! For what you get for the price don't know if I'd go back. read more

More like 3.5 stars. Interior design is 5 stars. Food is 4 stars: 3 cup chicken is good as always; Taiwanese minced pork rice with egg is disappointing again--very little flavor and meat, as well as poor presentation. The seasoned egg wasn't done most appropriately. It's my second try of this rice dish, just to confirm my first impress wasn't their best attempt. Service is truly lacking--it's challenging even to get a soda refill; soda is kinda flat too. read more

We ordered seven items in total and the final price was $114 post-tax. We ordered three appetizers and four entrees. Unfortunately, I only took pictures of five dishes. So you guys will just have to believe me :) Appetizers: Dan Dan Noodles, Beef Tripe, and Taiwanese Burger. The portion sizes were AMAZING for the price. The flavors were abundant! The textures were great. However, the dishes were saltier than expected. But for the extra salt, these dishes were 100% 5/5 in my book. Entrees: Cumin Lamb, Mapo Tofu veggie version, Aromatic Pot w/ Fish, and Pickled Veggie Soup with Founder. Once again, the portions were superb for the price! The only except was the Aromatic Pot. It was $28 for the Pot and the portion was just right. As for the taste, these entrees were mouthwatering! The Cumin Lamb's cumin flavor was just right and did not overwhelm the dish. The Mapo Tofu had just the correct amount of ground peppercorn. The Pot had the right amount of spice + heat! With all of that being said and heaps of praises aside, the lowlight of the night was the extra salts. "The chef was in love." (In France, a chef in love sprinkles too much salt LOL) The chef was definitely skilled. On the other hand, maybe he was a bit too enthusiastic and carefree with his salt management hahaha. 5/5 for the gracious portions 5/5 for the excellent service 5/5 for the great taste (ignoring the extra salt of course) and texture 4/5 overall. I will definitely go back to see if the chef can redeem himself. read more

What an extreme let down. We ended a great day in Philly and wanted to grab take out to eat at the hotel. We ordered from Dan Dan - four different dishes and all were mediocre. Glass noodle with minced pork - absolutely no pork was in this dish. Was simply glass noodles with hot oil mixed in. Did not end up eating and tossed. Noodle with beef - only half the container was filled. We called to ask if there was supposed to be soup that came with it as was confused why only half the container was filled. Eggplant with garlic sauce and the pork belly entree were both a good portion but each came with a large quart size rice? You would need double the entree to go with a whole large rice...definitely not proportionate. Last dish was the minced pork over rice...again noticeably more rice than pork. Spent way too much to be just left hungry. Perhaps the dine in experience is better? read more

I went to Dan Dan to place a takeout order. The one dish I ordered cost $30.75. I had no problem with the price because it is delicious and I've ordered it many times. Today, I was told that I needed to pay extra to get a side of rice ($1.25 for small; $2.50 for large). I left without placing my order. I am still amazed I needed to pay for rice at an Asian restaurant, especially when the 1 dish already cost over $30. read more

DanDan is our favorite place to eat near the King of Prussia Mall! Farmer's Style Beef: Tender beef with stir-fried bell peppers. We asked for the dish to be less spicy which caused it to be a little bland. Pickled Sichuan Fish: Really liked the dish! Soft, tender fish with slightly sweet pickled toppings. Garlic Sauce Chicken: Not as flavorful as the Jing Jiang dish but still good! Jing Jiang Pork: Good balance between sweet and salty - super flavorful. read more

My go-to take out place whenever I am in town. I usually order from the Taiwanese menu selection and the food is always spot on.

At the end of a strip mall in Devon, this fancy restaurant just waits for you to decided to be enveloped in its noodle awesomeness. We randomly tried it one Sunday evening and had a fantastic time. We went with the spicy dumplings and shared the sichuan beef noodle soup. Plenty to take home so definitely come here ready to feast. We found ourselves hoping for more vegetables- the balance of protein to noodle to broth felt very off. But the spicy flavor was exactly what you want to get in a noodle spot. Parking is plentiful and the place absolutely filled up while we were there- I do recommend reservations if you come at any time likely to be full. Our service was solid though it took awhile for my drink to arrive- I tried one of the seasonal cocktails and it was well balanced but not strong. One odd thing was going to the bathrooms- the hallway was stacked with kegs and beers. Maybe it was just a restock time but I can't imagine anyone with a wheelchair getting through. This place seems to get tons of to go orders and the menu is genuinely huge, like you would expect in a diner. You could come many times and still not try everything. I certainly plan to return for more. read more

If you're ready for a flavor explosion that'll leave your taste buds dancing, look no further than Dan Dan! This place is an absolute gem and I've eaten here about 7 times before posting this review. Let's dive right into the star of the show: the food. Brace yourself, because once you take a bite of their twice cooked fish, you'll be hooked! This dish was an absolute knockout, with tender fish bathed in a mouthwatering sauce that had just the right balance of sweet, spicy, and savory. This is one of their best dishes; the long hot peppers and leeks are amazing. But wait, there's more! The Sichuan prime rib tips were like bite-sized pieces of heaven, bursting with rich flavors that had me swooning. And of course, who could forget the Dan Dan noodles - different, but rather flavorful, at least to my palate (99.99% Asian). Now, let's talk value. Dan Dan isn't just a feast for your taste buds--it's also friendly to your wallet! With such incredible dishes at such reasonable prices, you'll feel like you've stumbled upon a hidden treasure. The restaurant's commitment to providing high-quality ingredients and unforgettable flavors while keeping things affordable is commendable. I went to Nectar (nearby) and it wasn't as good and twice as expensive! The cherry on top of this spicy Sichuan sundae? The service! The staff at Dan Dan are delightful, whether you sit at the bar or at a table. I haven't liked (my tastes) everything I've ordered but after as many times as I've been here I can say this is one of my top restaurants I enjoy eating at. read more

We have gotten Dan Dan two times for take out. The first time I got the shredded duck dish and the side of pork rice. Both were pretty good but needed more seasoning. The next order we got I got the seafood XO fried rice. This fried rice def. Had more flavor and had a hint of spice. I also got the crab and pork soup dumplings that were okay. Overall the food I've had so far are just okay. I've had better Taiwanese food elsewhere but it's nice to have this place out in Wayne where Asian food is not that abundant. read more

What a great Taiwanese restaurant! Made for sharing, their family-style dishes allow you to try all the good things. Fair warning - when they say spice, they mean spice (not "American spicy"). We had - Crispy spicy cucumbers - yes, get them. They're a favorite for a reason. Dumplings in chili oil - there are 8 and it's large (more dough than filling). Great flavor. Spicy beef hand-ripped noodles - the pieces of beef were super flavorful and tender. The noodles were veryy large and so long it made them difficult to share. Spicy aromatic pot (with shrimp) - tons of flavor, large dish Definitely more expensive, but large portions and absolutely delicious. read more

DanDan food is fabulous, friendly and efficient service, and the restaurant has a pretty and inviting atmosphere. Our fave dishes: pork bao buns, Dandan noodles, spicy cucumbers, chicken with bok choy & ginger, twice cooked chicken or pork belly. Be aware if you're sodium sensitive that some dishes, while delicious, are on the salty side. read more

For starters, I came with a reservation with 10 people, and we were accommodated decently well with around a 10-15 minute wait time past our reservation. The ambience was great, but I would say that there should be more lights at the table, as someone who may not have great eyesight would not be able to read the menu very well. The food itself came faster than expected, with only a 10 minute wait time. For our appetizers, we got dumplings and scallion pancakes. The dumplings and the pancakes were alright, but the sauce that came with the dumplings was incredible. The fries were great too. I ordered the dry pepper chicken and I asked for extra spice, even though it was already marked to be incredibly spicy, but I found the spice level to be lackluster. The flavor itself was very much what I expected, with a peppery profile and a nice crispy crust. I honestly was more impressed by the other dishes that I tried. I tried the spicy tofu pot which paired really well with rice. Additionally, I tried the dandan noodles, which I wasn't a huge fan of as it tasted very peanuty. Last, I tried the cumin lamb, which for some reason, was way spicier than my dish, which was meant to be spicier than the highest spice level that they offered. For dessert, I had the deep fried ice cream, which just tasted average. As someone who really needs some spice in their food, I enjoyed how they were able to incorporate spice into each dish differently. read more
