We were looking for a new place and really enjoyed the experience here. It is a low key spot with traditional dishes which we really enjoyed. My favorite was the snow peas leaves which we have not had for almost year since moving to the area.

March 2025. My first time. A big step up from other local Chinese food restaurants in the area. Service was way better, too. More expensive, too. Recommended. ☆☆☆☆ 1/2 stars. Kung Pao Chicken.

Sampan is a hidden gem of delicious Cantonese food in Franconia! Each dish and dim sum we had was cooked to perfection, and the staff was so kind and brought our food out so quickly. I can't wait to come back to try more of what they have to offer!
