A really delightful first experience here! Loved the atmosphere, a chill vibe, great for a relaxing Friday night meal. My husband and I devoured the dumplings in chili oil. Just the right amount of spice. That was our absolute favorite! We also had the scallion pancakes, which were deliciously crispy. I got the ginger shredded duck and loved it. My husband got the special - a spicy braised duck with vegetables. It was huge! He was very happy. 😋 We will definitely return.

If you want proper Sichuan food, this is the place. The dan dan noodles and mapo tofu are excellent, with deep umami and the numbing mala balance done right. Bold flavors without being sloppy or muted. The potstickers, however, are a pass and do not match the level of the mains.

this place had the best food i’ve ever hand in my entire life by far. me and my mom were absolutely astonished by how great the food was and the customer service was great too. if you want the wind knocked out of you because of how good the food is definitely come here. it’s a family style restaurant so beware and not order a whole bunch of food like me and my mom😭😭😭

Will be coming back, I really liked this place! It was worth coming to on an off/day time (good luck getting in on a Saturday night with no reservations). The cumin lab noodles were so good and so spicy with great flavor. Next I want to try the spicy beef noodles it was that good. Wontons in chili oil were great, definitely save the oil and put it on your rice. The eggplant and garlic sauce was good and a good balance to the spice of the lamb. Cute spot for a date night, highly recommend! Edit: Have come back multiple times one of my favorite spots for a nice night. Continues to be fantastic quality.

The spicy beef noodles and the wontons are always out of this world. The big shrimp pot could have used a bit more flavor but was still very good. DanDan is always worth the visit
