" DanDan surprised me with its delightful range of flavors! I started with the crispy potstickers, which were a fantastic appetizer. The interior design of the restaurant is beautifully modern, perfect for dates or gatherings. My main course, the Mongolian Beef, was flavorful, cooked perfectly, and I could see why it’s a favorite! The service was friendly and welcoming, though they were busy. I would definitely come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to DanDan with some coworkers for lunch, and while the food was decent, I expected more authenticity. The DanDan noodles were good, but I found them lacking that traditional spice. The service was friendly, but it felt like they were understaffed on the day we visited. The atmosphere was pleasant, but it did get a bit noisy. Overall, it was an okay experience, but I might not choose to return. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a gem! This was my first visit to DanDan after hearing all the buzz, and I was quite impressed. My friend and I ordered a variety of dishes to share, including the egg rolls, dan dan noodles, and some bao. Everything was flavorful and beautifully presented. The bustling atmosphere was enjoyable, but sometimes too loud, making conversation difficult. The service was generally friendly, but we did have to wait longer than expected for our drinks. Overall, a very good dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had to try this restaurant after seeing it featured on a TV show, and it did not disappoint! The General Tso's Cauliflower was outstanding and a unique twist on a classic. The staff was attentive throughout our meal, checking on us often without being intrusive. I appreciate the fresh ingredients, although portion sizes could be a bit larger for the price point based on what I observed from others. I left with a good impression and would happily recommend. " (*Curated Review*)

" I’ve been following DanDan since it appeared on Top Chef and had high expectations. The ambiance was fantastic, and while I loved the mix of modern design with a touch of coziness, my food was underwhelming. I tried the orange chicken, expecting a gourmet twist, but it felt a little average compared to what I’ve had elsewhere. The waiter was friendly but not as attentive as I would prefer. I’d give it another chance, but I hope for better next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I wish I could give DanDan a higher rating, but the food was inconsistent on my visit. The egg rolls were good, but the noodles lacked flavor. I appreciated the warm atmosphere and lively decor; it's a neat spot to hang out. I also found the service to be friendly, but I felt a bit neglected at times. I may try again in the future and see if things improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" The lunch buffet at DanDan was my favorite! There were various delicious options that changed weekly so there’s always something new to try. I always appreciated how fresh the food tasted. The only downside was that it gets crowded quickly, and hence the atmosphere during lunch felt rushed. Still, the staff was friendly and attentive. Overall, it seems like a top-notch choice for Asian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)
