While were there, many Chinese-speaking people came in to eat and order out, which is always a good sign. It is a no frills, non-fancy place to eat (kiosk ordering, self serve plastic utensils). We focused mostly on the noodle dishes for this trip, and want to go back to try their other dishes (many which seem to be more geared toward the American palate, e.g, General Tsao's chicken). Deep fried dough sticks (you tiao) - 5*/5, I love these and have not found dim sum places in Chinatown that serve the light, easy to tear apart version of this anywhere and Sang Kee Asian Bistro does not offer this on their otherwise wonder dim sum menu. I am SO happy to find this and will be back again and again just for these. Along with some hot, sweetened soy milk to dip them in, this will be my special treat/snack go to item at Taste of Chang'an. Hooray! Pork & Chives dumplings - 5/5, these are very good dumplings and although I like the filling I make better, I am unwilling to make my own wrappers so I can imagine ordering these for takeout in the future as an appetizer for a party. Hot & Sour soup - 4/5, good overall but could use more hot and more sour. I appreciated how the broth was actually not broth and not as gummy as some hot and sour soups can be. Changan Biangbiang Noodles - 4/5, I appreciated the hand pulled noodles but found the ratio of pork belly pieces to the amount of noodles to be too low so after eating my way half through the bowl I had only noodles left. Flavors are good, but the next day I did not want to eat my leftovers which is a sign. Pork Ribs Noodles - 4/5, my son had this and he and I agreed the pork ribs were more flavorful than the pork belly pieces in my noodles. He also had many leftover noodles with no more meat, and did not want to eat the leftovers. Sauteed Spicy Chicken Noodle - 4/5, my husband had this and it looked more like a chicken/green pepper dish on a bed of noodles. Leftovers had a good ratio of all items in the dish and I did eat these the next day for lunch. When I go back, I'd like to try their zha jiang noodles, pork buns, scallion pancakes, and their other dishes. And I am so happy to have found somewhere on the Main Line where I can pick up fresh, hot you tiao!

We had just picked up glasses at Ardmore Optical, and thought we would have dinner in Ardmore. We…read morewalked up and down the street (W. Lancaster) and didn't see anything very appealing. We were walking back to the car when we passed an outdoor mall, with a few restaurants. We noticed a nice crowd at DanDan, read a few reviews and decided to try it out. It was a Friday around 5:30 and we had no trouble getting a table, although by the time we left, it was getting crowded. We started with the Potstickers (fried dumplings) - they offer chicken and vegetable - we got the chicken. They were delicious- there was a nice crispy sear on one side from the pan fry, yet the dumpling was tender and the chicken filling was flavorful. Our first entree was the Jing Jiang Dish - sliced beef sautéed in a sweet bean sauce and topped with shredded scallions. The beef was tender and the bean sauce, which tasted like teriyaki, was very good. Our second entree was the star of the dinner - Honey Pine Nut Shrimp, which was fried shrimp tossed in a homemade cream sauce with red and green bell peppers. It was excellent! Large, tender shrimp - with a light fried coating were amazing. The cream sauce was luscious - I would never have thought a mayonnaise based sauce with honey and cream would work with shrimp - it was outstanding. DanDan has primarily spicy dishes, but there are several items on the menu with light or no spice for those who prefer not to have it. We will definitely be returning to DanDan for the Shrimp and try a few more dishes

Okay Chinese food, but would be great for large parties. Came here for lunch on a workday and had…read moreno problem being sat. Our waiter was very sweet and quick. Two of us shared the hand ripped noodles and an order of wonton in soup. Both dishes were fine but not that impressive. There's much better Chinese food in center city Philly (of course), and for the price, I'd rather go somewhere else. Overall, wouldn't really come back, but also wouldn't turn it down if someone else was enthusiastic.

There is such a wide variety of foods!! I usually only eat 2 plates at buffets, and I am done. I had 6!! Omg! I couldn't stop going back for more! That's the most I've ever eaten! Next time, I want to try more things, because there were so many options! There were very few things I wasn't a fan off, but it's up to preference. I cleared almost everything on all of my plates. I cant wait to go again!! You know it's good food when you're in the middle of eating it, and are you are already planning the next time you're coming back. I missed it before I even finished eating it. They have the options of hotpot, buffet, and ramen! You can do more than one too! 100/10! Exceeded my expectations! It's so clean there, and has good/fast service. They were very good with taking the plates and not letting it pile up, and were very quick with getting drinks.

Since local Chinese-American take-outs range from 'okay' to nothing more than…read more'a-little-better-than-okay,' I thought we'd try ordering instead from a restaurant. Though we hadn't been there in years, Golden Bowl came to mind. Consensus: we spent a bit more than we usually do, but the food was a couple of notches better. As a point of comparison, we ordered our usual soups: hot & sour and egg-drop wonton. Hot & sour was thick and spicy. (To temper the heat, I cut my serving with spoonfuls of egg-drop.) Wontons were nicely filled and less doughy than our usual take-outs. Two thumbs up for the soup. Mongolian Beef is my husband's favorite. We both agreed that Golden Bowl's version is pretty good. Our other dish, Sizzling Triple Delight, is best eaten in the restaurant. Nothing was sizzling, but the components -- beef, chicken, shrimp and vegetables -- were well prepared. Broccoli was al dente and the brown sauce was rich and flavorful. All-in-all, branching out paid off. We'll most assuredly do it again.

The upside is that it was inexpensive, which is what drew me there in the first place. My very first time eating there in March 2026. I'll start with the good: the Hong Kong wonton soup, the egg drop soup, & the beef chow fun. I would return for these items. The bad: the duck rolls, the shrimp with lobster sauce. The duck rolls, I took one bite, and that was enough. The duck was dry, it didn't have good flavor, I'm not sure if it was particularly fresh. It tasted like it could be the duck that's about to be shrink. The shrimp in lobster sauce was the worst I've ever had. Absolutely no taste. I do not use condiments and I had to put soy sauce in it. I have hypertension, I do not use soy sauce! I had to use it to choke it down. That was the most expensive dish and almost $17 so no way that was being wasted. And there was barely any shrimp in it. The ugly: The egg roll & crispy fried noodles. The oil must be very old. The egg roll was so dark and soft with oil that the oil was dripping off of it and filling the little wax paper bag. The noodles were also too dark and tasted gross like being fried and old oil. I would never get anything fried from this place ever.

When we dined for dinner, the room was quite loud as everyone was seated closely together and it echos. We ordered the tteokbokki with cheese, seafood pancakes, and beef tofu soup. Our server was very nice and friendly, the food came out quick as well. They started us off with banchan which included fish cakes, braised soybeans, and kimchi. The seafood pancake was the best. Great portion size, crunchy and not soggy, and loaded with seafood. The tteokbokki with cheese was okay. Flavor was good as it wasn't too spicy, but would have love to see more rice cakes and fish cakes. It was mainly sauce. The beef tofu soup was our least favorite as it tasted very bland. It seemed like most tables were ordering a sizzling plate of some kind, so if we return, I might want to try that instead.

I sat in the waiting area for maybe10 minutes before my order was ready. The soup was good. The flavor of the broth is delicate but the hoisin and sriracha amp it up, as well as the accoutrements (bean sprouts, jalapeño slices and mint). I have only had pho from one other restaurant (several years ago) but can't compare the recipes. However, I definitely recommend trying Pho Street.

If not, I go for the pineapple fried rice, and I'd be happy with just about anything else here. Cocktails are excellent, and everything is very well presented. If you want a Sapporo, the best part is being able to pick it out of a fridge behind the conspicuous aquarium set up in the back. I've been here with friends, family, and dates.
