The long wait for Din Tai Fung’s revered dumplings is over. One of Taiwan’s most famous restaurants, known for its delicately steamed dumplings just opened at South Coast Plaza in the former McDonald’s on Level 2. Din Tai Fung originated in Taiwan in 1958, and has since opened 82 locations worldwide including mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore Korea, and three U.S. locations closer to home, in Arcadia, Glendale, and Seattle. The New York Times reportedly named Din Tai Fung one of the top ten restaurants in the world.
Din Tai Fung serves more than a dozen varieties of dumplings including juicy pork and crab dumplings, vegetarian dumpling, chicken dumplings and dessert dumplings, as well as appetizers like its pork rice bun, fried pork chop, and seaweed and bean curd in vinegar. Delicious soups include hot and sour pork soup, wonton soup, and spicy braised beef soup; noodle soups, a variety of fried rice, sautéed greens; and dessert buns, sweet rice and rice cakes. You can even find gluten free menu items, too.
