    Had the wonton soup--super flavorful and comforting. Chill spot, fast service. Will come back for sure.

    About time I post an update, eh? I've been coming here for more than 12 years, and they're still an amazing mainstay for me. Their kuy teav Phnom Penh - Cambodian noodle soup - is the first thing you should try. They also have a menu with other things. I've had their sour soup most recently. Friendly service. Still cash only. Get a num pao (bun) to go!

    Found this place through Yelp reviews. I was starving and couldn't wait to eat! First I was alittle sketched out by the area. Really is a hole in the wall place but when I walked in it was filled with people eating away. I knew I found the place to go ! I sat down and order the fried spring rolls. Amazing ! Crispy and super flavorful. My mouth is watering just thinking about them. I got the seafood egg noodles soup as my entree. It was pretty good! Broth was flavorful. There was a lot of seafood in it. Yum. It is cash only. Good meal for a good price! I def. Want to come back one day and try other items :)

    New Phnom Penh is in the heart of South Philly, tucked away in "Cambodia Town." This little store front is home to a family-owned business that has been around for years. The food is reminiscent of true homecooking that warms the stomach and soul. The store owner is a wonderful woman that impressively speaks, at minimum, four languages. She is always willing to answer any questions you may have. I love the dry noodles with soup on the side. It isn't listed anywhere on the menu, but the lady will know exactly what you mean. Honestly, I have never ordered something that I didn't like off the menu. Make sure you bring your cash and order the "yàuhjagwái" (fried Chinese dough) with your soup/noodles to soak up the amazingness!

    Small place, large variety of items on the menu. We ordered whatever looked good to us. Food came quickly, freshly prepared, soup was piping hot! Everything was deliciously made, we felt comforted Chu familiar foods and surprised by new flavors and textures! Will come back next time we are back in Philly!

    What do you get when you mix a Vietnamese wife and chef, who spend many years in Cambodia, with a Chinese husband and entrepreneur? Neon Phnom Penh Restaurant on 7th and Wolf in deep South Philly, and some very good unintentional fusion dishes from that golden triangle of spicy cuisine. This small corner house with eight tables and booths has a cozy feel, from the wall art and houseplants, down to the Buddha shrine sitting on the floor with oranges in supplication. We ordered their spring rolls (3 for $5), beef with fat noodles, and beef lo mein. They were all good to very good, but the star of the show were the deep fried spring rolls that had a great rough texture and were filled with ground pork, veggies, sprouts and homemade sweet dipping sauce with peanuts chunks. They were nearly a meal by themselves. The fat noodles were also quite delicious with plenty of tender sliced beef, Chinese broccoli, string beans, onions, peppers, scallions and a tasty brown sauce that melded everything together. Liked this a lot. The lo mein was also good, but not at the level of the former dishes. It had an interesting, indefinable almost smoky flavor, with plenty of meat and greens, but not as scrumptious as everything else. We ended up taking half of each of the mains home with us, and one of the rolls, for subsequent consumption by our son. He devoured all this the same night, and claimed to like it all, while also questioning the ingredients of the lo mein and that somewhat odd taste. Still, a worthy stop in the heart of Cambodiatown. Plenty of atmosphere, and a friendly family team that spent more time that normal chatting with us about their lives in Asia and Philly. Good people with an interesting story to tell. Made for an entertaining and satisfying dining experience.

    I'm sure this place is great in the minds of those that know Cambodian food. Service was friendly and you know they normally deal with locals because nobody asked for a menu except us. I'll just make it easier. We got the #2 XLarge and #4 Large, spring roll and the fried dough. Now I'm sure to some people it's "the way" to eat the fried dough by soaking it in the soup. However, we don't like our fried dough soggy. You fried it, so let's eat it, crunchy? The noodle soup definitely has a distinctive taste.. A few hours later, I still tasted it in my mouth. The skin of the spring roll was rather thick. I would skip this. I know hole in the wall places has it's pros and cons.. But, how about making sure the cups or any utensils provided are clean? I picked up a tea cup and something was sticking to my fingers which totally grossed me out.

The homemade DanDan noodles were our favorite, which are served with ground pork in a spicy peanut sauce. We also got the three cup chicken which was so good, with a sweet, licorice-like glaze. Some other favorites were the black pepper chicken and the long hot chicken, if you enjoy spice. We had the ginger and scallion dish and was not our favorite, as the chicken had a unique consistency and was quite limp. Overall, good service and a relaxing ambiance in a bustling city.

The food is consistently strong, and the signature dan dan noodles are a must-order. We also tend to get the chicken potstickers, scallion pancake, kung pao chicken, and dry pot beef, along with white rice for the table. It's a menu that rewards repeat visits. We've had both takeout and dine-in here, and we definitely prefer dining in. The food is at its best when it comes straight out of the kitchen. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and kind without being overbearing. For seating, we prefer the cozy but small upstairs dining area, so making a reservation on OpenTable is usually a good idea. There are a few high-top tables downstairs near the kitchen and windows, which are also great, but if you prefer a quieter or cozier spot, we think the upstairs is best. They also offer a happy hour with good prices, and overall, the value for the food quality is excellent. We often bring out-of-town guests, and it's always a hit. Sichuan cuisine remains distinct from typical American Chinese, which helps Dan Dan stand out. We've also noticed their Ardmore location, which appears to be a strong alternative. Consistently good, well-run, unique, and worth visiting, especially for the dan dan noodles. Highly recommended and hope to be back soon!

This place was packed, which is always a good sign, and even with that the staff stayed super prompt and professional. The house special was my favorite. I got it with the knife-cut noodles and it was perfect with the broth. The noodles had that slightly uneven, chewy texture that really holds onto the soup. I never thought I'd be the type to talk about "mouthfeel" but here we are. The broth itself was rich and savory with a deep beef flavor, a little bit of oil on top that adds body without feeling too heavy. It's that classic, comforting Chinese beef noodle soup done really well. I added a braised egg, which had great flavor soaked into it, though it was served cold, which threw me off a bit. The mapo tofu with noodles was also really solid. It had that signature spicy, numbing kick from the Sichuan peppercorns, balanced with a savory, slightly salty sauce. The tofu was soft and silky, and mixing it with the noodles made it extra satisfying. It's got some heat but not overwhelming, just enough to keep you going back for another bite. The shrimp stir fry was lighter but still flavorful. The shrimp were cooked well, tender with a slight snap, and the sauce leaned more on the savory side with a mild sweetness. It felt like a nice balance alongside the heavier noodle dishes. Couple practical things: it's cash only, but there's an ATM right by the seating area which makes it easy. And the portions are generous for the price, so it feels like a really good deal. Overall, super satisfying spot. Busy, a little chaotic, but the food absolutely delivers. Definitely a go-to if you're craving hand-pulled noodles.
