While visiting Philly over Labor Day weekend, I dined in twice at Nan Zhou…read more On my first visit, I got the coconut chicken curry dumplings and an order of the mapo tofu noodles to go. On the second visit, I got the duck noodle soup and the beef stir fried noodles to go. I don't do a lot of takeout normally, but they did such a nice job packaging both my to go orders on the different days. I didn't think to take pictures of the to go orders, unfortunately; there was a piece of cardboard on the bottom so your food wouldn't slosh around, along with a side of chili oil. In terms of the food, everything was fantastic! It really comes down to your personal preferences and what sounds 'good' to you that day. Yes, it can get busy. They are very efficient and these meals were well worth any wait!

You get a soup, salad, and entree, so for that price, you're definitely getting your money's worth in terms of quantity. I got the drunken noodles with seafood for my entree. The noodles were really flavorful, with that savory, slightly sweet, spicy Thai sauce and all the aromatics you expect from drunken noodles. Unfortunately, it was VERY salty. Like, good flavor underneath all that salt, but after a while it was hard to keep eating. The portion was also pretty large, so instead of forcing myself to finish it, I took it home and figured I could eat it with other things later to balance out the saltiness. My bigger issue was the seafood. It didn't taste particularly fresh to me. There was a slightly sour, "this may have been sitting in the fridge since yesterday" quality to it. Not completely spoiled or anything, but definitely not as fresh as I'd want. It almost tasted like seafood that had been cooked previously, refrigerated, and then brought back out for lunch service. The heavy sauce and salt also made me wonder if some of that was being used to cover up the flavor. Maybe I just got an off batch, but I definitely noticed it. The lemongrass chicken soup was MUCH lighter. The broth was pretty delicate and lemongrass-forward. The chicken itself tasted like plain poached white chicken that was probably cooked separately and then added to different dishes. Not bad, just very simple. The salad was actually really good. Crunchy, tangy, and refreshing, and the tamarind-based dressing was probably my favorite part. It had that sweet-sour quality that worked really well with the vegetables. My friend got tofu instead of the salad, and that came with two small pieces of tofu with a sweet and spicy sauce. Pretty simple, and definitely a smaller portion than the salad. We got there early and waited outside because they REALLY open at 11:30 on the dot lol. Once they opened, you could immediately see how popular the lunch special is. Lots of people came in and the restaurant filled up pretty quickly. The staff seemed a little overwhelmed with the lunch rush, but everyone was nice and clearly doing their best to keep up with all the orders. Overall, this is a really good deal and the food is definitely flavorful. For $13.75, getting three courses and a pretty substantial entree is hard to complain about. I just wish the seafood tasted fresher and the drunken noodles weren't quite so salty. I would come back and try something else, though, because the value is genuinely hard to beat.

This University City location is fine! I still think the OG Chinatown location is the best, but…read morethis one definitely has its own perks. The menu is mostly the same, so you know what you're getting. I actually came here for the University City Dine With Us deal, and honestly, 3 courses for $20 is a great deal, especially because they still give you those VERY generous Sang Kee portions. You definitely won't leave hungry. The University City location is newer and has a lot more seating, unless you're comparing it to the second floor of the Chinatown location. It's also nicely decorated and feels a little more polished and modern while still keeping that casual noodle house feel. The staff here were fine, and the food came out really quickly. Everything was good, but I couldn't help feeling like the flavors were a little more toned down and "white person friendly" compared to the Chinatown location. It just didn't have quite the same depth or punch that I remember from the OG. That said, it could totally be because I was ordering from the deal menu or maybe I just caught them on an off day, so I'm not going to hold that too strongly against them. One thing I really appreciated was the staff being so kind when my friend got stuck in the thunderstorm. I was waiting for her while it was absolutely POURING outside, and one of the ladies let me stay inside without making me feel like I needed to leave or hurry up. That was genuinely appreciated. Overall, a very solid location. If Chinatown feels too far, I'd absolutely come here instead. The food is still good, the portions are generous, the space is nicer and newer, and the prices are reasonable. I just think the OG still has that extra something.

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 service was excellent, with all of the staff, being friendly, prompt, and helpful. I ordered the gyoza and Terakawa ramen - both were delicious. The pork bone broth is quite satisfying, and I will say that the pork and egg were just perfect. The noodles are slightly smaller than ramen I've had elsewhere, but they had a nice texture to them and were definitely not over or undercooked. (That's the -1 star for me - I really love alkaline noodles and wish they used them here...) The decor is very utilitarian, but representative of the type of establishment they are going for (small neighborhood ramen shop). Overall, a pleasing experience and reasonable value. I would definitely recommend checking this place out! Oishii desu!!

We ordered 5 dishes among the 4 of us for a family style dinner. Here's what we got: Dry style crispy fish (IT IS GF!) 3 cup chicken Dan Dan noodles Garlic eggplant Chili dumplings All of them were incredibly flavorful and delicious. The dry style fish is the best I've had everywhere. Don't sleep on eating the aromatics they stir fry the fish in--the celery and onions in it are INCREDIBLY TASTY. The 3 cup chicken was crispy (it is breaded and fried to soak up more flavor), the noodles were bouncy and delicious. People were dipping their other food items into the sauces of the 3 cup and noodles all night. The eggplant was very creamy, with crispy edges and flavorful, but it was average compared to other eggplant I've had, which is always still good! And finally, the dumplings were probably the weakest dish. There is little meat to dumplings skin ratio. The meat is flavorful, but not juicy and tender. The chili sauce in it is incredible. All in all, a great meal with great people. The music they play in house is fun and early to mid 2000s. Great for a crowd.

I do recommend making a reservation as they can be pretty slammed on Fridays/weekends. The Srirachi wings had a nice crunch to them while still keeping the chicken juicy inside. It would've been nice to have an even amount of wings to drumsticks though, as I like flats more, but thats just a personal preference. The crabmeat fried rice was amazing, a really good portion of chunks of crabmeat mixed in so each spoonful had some. The duck curry was a "Grandma's special" so a much bigger portion and cost - but reasonable. The duck wasnt dry and had a good flavor throughout, not relying on the curry to give taste. The curry also had a hint of sweetness to it which complements the greasiness of the duck. The papaya salad felt very refreshing - we got it at level one as to not overpower our taste buds with all the other food. I did get some chili pepper on the side to add in later. My one recommendation is having Thai peppers as an option instead of dried chili flakes. I much prefer the taste of fresh Thai pepper to add the extra heat. The mango sticky rice is always a favorite. The mango is soft and ripe, the right amount of sweetness. They also mix pandan in with the sticky rice for a more impactful umami (Im also a big advocate for pandan in desserts).

It is a little tight inside and definitely gets busy, even during lunch and I do think it's a little on the pricier side. But for me, the food makes up for it. This feels like one of those local spots you're glad you finally tried and immediately start thinking about what you're ordering next time. Definitely a 10/10 for me. Would absolutely come back and recommend!
