    Our server Nicole took terrific care of us. Good suggestions, very patient, we never felt rushed. Each plate delivered was brought by a cheerful, friendly person. Your overall service is amazing. I brought 3 diners who have never been there. Each loved every dish, distinctive flavors, and all vowed to eat there again soon. The orange chicken, delicious, as always your egg rolls and fried rice dishes were terrific. Can’t wait to return. Drinks were perfect as well!! Thank you all.

    Nothing was put on the table that we didn’t enjoy. Don’t expect fine dining, but a solid casual Chinese spot

    We had lunch on Friday Lunch Buffet, offered during the summer. Great way to try a lot of dishes that you maybe you were not quite sure you would like. They were busy, Summerfest week, but service was great. Parking can be a problem. We would go back and do it again.

    After watching Chef Dan on Top Chef we made a point to visit DanDan if we ever found ourselves in Milwaukee. That day finally came and it lived up the hype. The Sichuan pork dumplings were some of the best I’ve ever had. The Singapore noodles were the group favorite but the salt and pepper cod, Dan Dan noodles, and moo gai pan were also excellent. I wish we lived closer and could return to DanDan more often but it will be on the top of our list the next time we’re here.

    I would best describe this as elevated Asian Food. I was quite happy with my experience. Had to come out and check out Chef Dan's restaurant when on vacation. The food was fresh and tasty and with a great temperature. I highly recommend

    Our first time there. We binge watched Top Chef Wisconsin and wanted to check out Dan’s restaurants. The food was outstanding. Everything was just so fresh and flavorful. Loved everything. .

    Our experience was fabulous, starting with the sense of humor, professionalism of our waitress, Missy T. She made recommendations, had the orders of drinks, appetizers, entrees perfectly "memorized" never wrote anything down, blew my mind! The food was exceptional, well worth the price (we have dinner for tonight too because there was so much). I cannot wait until our next visit to DanDan!!! Lori Golomski

    Too expensive for a lunch buffet. Service was not the greatest. Ended up paying $90 ( with tax and tip) for a lunch for two with a soda each. The vegetarian dishes were the best. The meat ones were kinda dry.
