    The food is sooo good. Take out only. Cash only. I got vegetable lo mein, dumplings, rib tips, chicken wings and house special soup. It's a no frills place but so worth it.

    Danny wok is a Philly stable when it comes to good Chinese fried wings. I don’t care what anyone say now bc I get food catered from them for events and never failed . Philly got some of the worst Chinese food and Danny is definitely top 3. As a Philly native they’re the top best CHINESE chicken spots NOT Best IN CHICKEN IN Philly but best when it’s comparing other Chinese restaurants.

    General 5 star salute for the army of good tasting wings with the heat seeking hot sauce. I been around other places and this one of those good spots in the hood for take out. They don't have booth seatings, out door patio/Terrance or outdoor deck and patio or table chair for dine-in option. I noticed They are wheelchair accessibility friendly and parking friendly.
