Dang Dude

It is one of the few Asian eateries at Sparkman's Wharf. They have a variety of asian food and boba tea. I got the teriyaki meal with rice and it was delicious! Service was quite slow though even though the food did come out fresh. I would be willing to come back to try other items on their menu even though their food is pricey for the portion you get.

Yuck seriously I was at Sparkman's Wharf for a dog festival and wanted a snack. I decided to stop by here to order this Korean Style BBQ Pork Bun which was described as with Pickled cucumbers, lemongrass hoisin. I didn't taste that whatsoever. There is no pickled cucumbers either to give it some flavor. My dog eats 500% better than this. It was also sitting there for a bit, and I didn't want something cold on a cold day. It def wasn't good at all. Service wasn't good either. What a waste!

Food was good but nothing spectacular. I ordered the yaki-udon with bbq pork. I expected either pork belly or some other cut of pork but it was actually ground pork. A little off putting for a twist on Korean bbq pork. There was also way too much sauce it felt overpowering and salty. Also, I'm not a super germaphobe but I did see the guy preparing the food, wipe the counter off with a dirty towel and then use the same towel to put food crumbs into the bowl that he served people. Not the cleanest or hygienic place...

I love that the wharf has many food stalls to choose from. Dang Dude won today's visit. Bummed the Bao buns were not available. The lemongrass chicken bowl was yummy. The tropical tea was also a winner. Food came out pretty quick. Cashless way to pay so be aware. Def want to come back to try the Bao buns.

Of the many stalls in the wharf here, this was the one that caught my attention the most and had exactly what I was craving, boba tea! I ordered the mango black tea which had a refreshing fruity taste and delicious well made boba. I got it as I was headed to the sequarium and ended up finishing it pretty fast. The man that attended me was efficient and quick as well as kind, I would definitely repeat this and maybe add lychee jelly next time since they were out this time. Highly reccomend if you're looking for something fresh and yummy to quench your thirst or caffiene fix

Food comes out quick and the employees are very friendly! I got the yaki-udon. Udon noodles, sweet sauce, with lemon grass chicken, mushrooms and bokchoy. My heaven. The prices are a bit high, but the dish was huge I had to ask for a to go lid and bag to take home. It makes great left overs. The sauce was a bit too salty for my liking.

They were busy so there was a little bit of a wait for the food, but it was a reasonable wait. We got the milk tea right after ordered. I tried the yaki-udon stir fried noodles with the five spice pork belly and it had such an incredible mix of flavors. It was filling to the soul and they give you a good portion of meat. This was my first tine trying this style of noodles and they have given me a great introduction. Honeydew milk tea is my new favorite tea. I absolutely loved it. I had to work hard to not drink it all before my food was ready.

I was so excited to try this place but was sadly disappointed with our first visit. We visited on a Sunday, and I was surprised to not see a line when ordering. We ordered the Chilled Sesame Noodles, $11 and the Five Spice Pork Belly $8.For the five spice pork belly, I was expecting it to be on a bao bun, but it came out on a hamburger bun. Also for the price, I feel like it could have come with two. The noodles were kinda sad too, I liked the crunchy toppings with the cucumber but the noodles had way too much of an oily taste. I've had chilled noodles before but these seemed to be more fast food style. I did like that it comes with the glass noodle, I've seen others that straight up substitute with pasta lol.I don't think I'd return, it was nice to try but the price point and what you get doesn't seem worth it to me.

We were visiting this area from out of town, and we're looking for unique eats in the Tampa area! I had heard of this Sparkman's Wharf and decided to stop by! This place is really, really fun! They have shopping container restaurants with various style of eats. And what's even cooler is it's right on the bay where you can see the cruise ships entering and leaving the port of Tampa! They also have an outdoor bier garden in the center of this restaurant & shopping plaza that makes for an all-around fun time for all!We decided to try "Dang Dude" which features Asian cuisine. I'm SO glad we did! We opted for the chilled sesame noodles - savory, and refreshing. Tossed in a sesame sauce and fresh Asian veggies, and the option to add a protein (I went with chicken, boyfriend went with Pork Belly, and both "worked" with the dish!) I also added a bit of chilli oil which added just a slight kick to the dish that paired with the flavor profile. Overall this seems like a really fun spot to shop, sip, and enjoy the views of Tampa bay! It's also so close to many other activities in the area which makes it easily accessible on your next visit to this area! Highly recommend!

It is about 3.5 stars. The cuisine is Pacific Asian fusion cuisine. Food is not cheap after add on. Base on value to taste is in the middle of the pack. This restaurant is one of the containers in Channel Side. We got the Yaki-Udon Stir Fried noodles. This dish has shiitake mushrooms and baby bok Choi. We add the five spice pork. Quantity is good. Dish a bit sweet. Taste like American flavored, not much of Asian flavor. The restaurant also has dumplings and snack, the bun, wings, and boba. Food needs to wait 10 minutes after order. Not much of service because order and pick up in the same window.
