Din Tai Fung

Food was good here. The pork chop fried rice was tasty. And their Xiao Long Bao is always popular here. We tried crab and kurobuta pork xlb again and it’s still our favorite. For the appetizers, we had Taiwanese cucumber salad and wood ear mushrooms. They are all amazingly good. Don’t forget to have chocolate and mochi xlb. It’s a nice dessert at the end of meals.

We were walking through South Coast Plaza around 2:30 and noticed no line. We put our name in and received a table notification 30 minutes later. Our hostess was lovely. Our server, Jackie was spectacular offering us the best tips on plates and dipping sauce. The food was divine! Chicken fried rice, crab and pork buns and spicy pork and crab wontons. Ridiculously good!

I’ve visited Din Tai Fung a couple of times while on work trips to Seattle and was excited to take my family here for the first time. The food was as amazing as I remembered, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. While we couldn’t reserve for 6 people, we booked for 4, and they kindly allowed our whole party to join. However, we were slightly disappointed that several menu items were unavailable by 9:15 PM. Still, it was a great dining experience overall, and we’ll definitely be back!

Amazing first time experience here with my boyfriend. We came into California for a short trip and we made it a *must do* to squeeze coming in right before our flight back home. We literally came in with our luggage. We joined the waitlist, which is a must, and that made everything seamless. Our server, Eline, was amazing; great service, amazing recommendations and very sweet. We ordered a bunch of things and left so satisfied because everything was fresh and delicious! So worth the hype! We will 1000% be back!!

Did not disappoint! Servers were well trained. Food was so good, I was worried it would be overhyped, but everything was delightful. Highly recommend coming here. Chocolate dumplings with sea salt cream are what dreams are made of.
