   Outstanding restaurant - from food to service to value. While DanDan has been around for nearly a decade, I have overlooked how inspiring Chinese-American cooking in Milwaukee could be. Loved the shareable aspect of this place. Started our dinner when our server brought out the delicious mungbean kimchee pancake and short rib / foie gras potstickers. Loved them both. DanDan noodles were wonderful with their peanut-forward flavor. Enjoyed the rice cakes and pork belly with more spicy kimchee. Shared the Mongolian beef with its deliciously stir-fried bell peppers. DanDan has a wonderful cocktail menu and mango crème brûlée. Only wished we lived nearby to have this as our goto carry out place for Chinese-American food.

   Fantastic dining experience. Everything we tried was delicious. Smashed cucumber salad, spicy shrimp, orange chicken, fried rice, mushroom dish, sake and mocktails all hit the spot. Great ambiance and service. Wonderful overall experience.

   Our first time to DanDan and we will definitely be returning. Server was extremely knowledgeable and accommodating providing a special Gluten Free menu for myself and daughter.

   Fabulous food! Service was great! I have Celiac disease and they had a separate menu specifically for those with Celiac. I appreciated the time the server took to understand my order and the food was brought out with perfect timing. The only thing would would’ve changed was a bigger table as most of the dishes are shareable. Great atmosphere. Everyone was friendly and energetic! Definitely our new go to restaurant :)

   Dim Sum Give Some was fantastic, it was my first time and I could not choose a singular bite that was phenomenal because so many were. I had so much paté in one day... so rich. Truly exceptional, I hope I get to do it again.

   Joined Dim Sum Give Some at the Italian Community Center. Was an absolutely wonderful experience! Can't wait for next year!

    Food was amazing. The pork dumplings and Happy Chicken were exploding with flavor. The Pad Tai was also great. The Mongolia Beef was good but I would select another entree on my return. I had a Bourbon Old Fashion Press which was perfect, so hard to find a good traditional, non-WI Old Fashion and they did a great job. We had the late seating and food didn't disappoint. I will be ordering the Happy Chicken and Pork Dumplings on repeat. My only comment is the noise level, I wish it was a little quieter but not bad enough to deter me from coming again. Our server was very attentive too. Unfortunately, I cannot remember her name.
