I haven't seen many places in Chinatown that have Dan Dan noodles.  Oodles Noodles in DuPont/Farragut (19th at L) has a fairly mild version with shredded chicken.

My favorites are around AU (and deliver!) - Friendship Hunan (Wisconsin at Fessenden) sounds like it is just what you are looking for.  Noodles and sauce.  Little China Cafe's (MacArthur) version has bean sprouts tossed in and a little spicier sauce on top.  Chen's Gourmet (also on MacArthur) has a tasty version with sauce and veggies on the side.  You get to toss it all together.

I hope this helps
