Sampan is a fantastic spot for a casual dinner! The tasting menu was a highlight - don't miss the wagyu and duck sandwiches. The cocktails are delicious too, and the ambiance is perfect for a fun night out. Reservations are a must! Can't wait to return!

Sampan is an absolute gem for Pan-Asian cuisine in Philadelphia! 🌟 I visited on a bustling Saturday and was thrilled to find the ambiance cozy yet trendy.

We opted for the chef's tasting menu, which was a feast of flavors - each dish bursting with quality, especially the must-try wagyu!

Cocktails were delightful and surprisingly affordable, making it hard not to indulge. The staff were attentive and friendly, ensuring we had a great experience.

Definitely make a reservation, as it gets busy! I can’t wait to return... 🍹✨
