One of our new favorite places! The wait times are crazy (gen. hour plus) because they do not take reservations, so don’t come to hungry. The food is delicious though and a great experience.

it is an eastern exercise in patience and meditation
1st visit = 1 hour wait
2nd visit = 2 hour wait
3rd visit (i know--right?) = 1 hour wait in middle of day

Love the soup dumplings! Glad they have a Glendale location which I've found to have shorter lines than the SGV locations. Try the Pork XiaoLongBao and the Shrimp & Pork Wontons with Spicy Sauce!

Awesome place for dumplings. Get the dumplings with the spicy wonton sauce! Of course the juicy pork dumplings are great and what made them famous.

Never disappoints. Delicious food, great variety, wonderful for sharing as a family, work friends, etc. Unless you go there before 11.30am for lunch, be prepared to wait -- because it's that popular!!

Their service is really great, but this Din Tai Fung is not as good compared to the one in Arcadia...

Food is great. I've been to the one in Arcadia, this location is better furnished. Very good xiao-long-bao and the spicy wanton is superb.

Great ambiance, and almost the same selection as the ones in Arcadia, where I first found this chain. I think the pricing is the same, but the food is more authentic at the Arcadia locations. Pricey, upscale Dim Sum.

If you like juicy pork dumplings then this the place for you. I am not a big fan of long lines so I eat elsewhere

Yes, it's always crowded but it's worth the wait. Some of the best dim sum and noodles I've ever had in my life. Stand outs include the mixed spicy wontons, chicken with flat noodles, shrimp and pork shumai and of course, the juicy pork dumplings. They also serve a few terrific sauteed veggie dishes such as the mustard greens and the kale. I like to wash it all down with iced cream green tea with sea salt.

food was delicious! wait was not long at all, but we also came before the dinner rush started. dumplings and noodles were delicious - try the juicy pork dumplings (soup dumplings) as that's what they're known for. so glad i don't have to drive out to arcadia for this now!

The food was just as good as the Arcadia ones, and of course it's just as crowded as the Arcadia ones. If it's too crowded, you can order ahead to pick up, park in front and pick it up in 15 minutes. Great location. Highly recommended!!!
