Din Tai Fung – Los Angeles Restaurants
Update: Din Tai Fung in Arcadia has now moved to Westfield Santa Anita
The Taiwanese restaurant Din Tai Fung serves up some of LA’s best dumplings. It is a very popular place and they do not take table reservations, so you will have to wait your turn (usually there is a line all the way out on the parking lot). Upon arrival, you are handed a queue number and asked to fill in an order form, while you are waiting, so you are ready to place your order as soon as you are assigned a table.
Din Tai Fung is famous for soup dumplings, xiao long bao, stuffed with pork and/or crab along with a spoonful of soup. They are served piping hot and you eat the dumpling in one bite, so be careful not to burn your tongue.
• Din Tai Fung is in Arcadia, so if you are staying on Sunset Strip, expect a 30-45 minutes drive.
• In the same plaza, there is a Taiwanese bakery and an Asian beauty store, which is also worth a visit.
• Din Tai Fung is best for lunch since it takes a while to get there and there is not much else to do in the area.
Planning a trip to Los Angeles? Whether you're visiting for the beaches, the food scene, or a taste of Hollywood, finding the right place to stay can make all the difference. LA is a sprawling city with neighborhoods that each have their own vibe—think laid-back Venice, upscale Beverly Hills, or artsy Silver Lake. From luxury hotels with rooftop pools to cozy boutique stays tucked away in quiet corners, there’s something for every budget and travel style.
