Vegeterian fried rice
Bhanu K.

I don't know why I used to think Din Tai Fung wasn't a great place for vegetarians, I was completely wrong!!! They have a surprisingly good variety of vegetarian options. The vegan bao and spicy vegetarian wontons were absolutely delicious. Don't miss the chocolate and mochi Baos for dessert, they're so good! The ambiance is beautiful, and the service was excellent as well. One tip: add your name to the online waitlist before heading to the restaurant. It can save you a lot of waiting time, especially during peak hours. Definitely recommend!

Kurobuta Pork Xiao Long Bao (10 each)
Margot C.

We came here for lunch today. Luckily the wait wasn't too long but plan on usually having a long wait or make a reservation. Parking was easy in the underground lot. When we got there we checked in with the host and only waited about 5 min (I had put us on the waiting list here on Yelp). Service was great even though the place was packed. Our server was friendly and attentive and the food arrived quickly. We got a lot of things including the baby back ribs, pork chop fried rice, noodles with chicken, spicy shrimp and pork wontons, garlic green beans, pork xlb, and chocolate mochi with sea salt foam. My favorites were the ribs, pork xlb, green beans and chocolate mochi. The pork chop fried rice was a bit too bland for me but my husband and kiddo loved it. Overall we had a great meal and had a bunch of leftovers to take home. Make sure to get the chocolate mochi dumplings - they're amazing!

Chicken Xiao Long Bao (10 each)
Ella R.

Din Tai Fung is by far one of my favorite dim sum restaurants that I've ever been to! The quality, flavor, and consistency of their dishes just can't be beat. My personal favorites are the pork and chicken xiao long bao (soup dumplings), sweet and sour pork baby back ribs, chicken dumplings, braised beef noodle soup, and the shredded kurobuta pork fried noodles! While the food is great, my most recent experience I was left a bit wanting in the drinks and service area. The lychee mojito was presented well but the flavors were lacking. For the price, I probably won't order drinks here again. I was also a bit disappointed that we had to wait 15 minutes to be seated despite having a dinner reservation. I'll be back again for the food, because it is so good, but I definitely recommend visiting at lunch time for less wait and better service. Dinner time seems to always be a bit chaotic and overbooked even with a reservation, particularly at the downtown Bellevue location.

Alex M.

Overall: 5 stars Very excited that there was a DTF in Bellevue, and clearly was everyone else because after checking in for the reservation, theres a large crowd thats waiting in the lobby for more than 10 minutes, but unlike the NYC location, there's no dedicated place to sit. The food is very flavorful and delicious, and of the higher quality US locations. Truffle Xiao Long Bao - Expensive, but delicious dumpling with a thick slice of black truffle inside, in addition to more chopped into the filling to ensure that the truffle note is cleaely primary. Deliciously worth it. Chicken Soup - Deep and restorative soup that is clear yet flavorful with pure and clean flavors. The chicken is tender and I love drumstick and wing joints in the soup. Shrimp Siu Mai - Interesting wrapping method of siu mai that actually makes it look better when the top is enclosed by a whole shrimp. I was impressed by how juicy the filling was, as it had more soup than the soup dumplings. Iceberg Lettuce - Cooked well to retain good texture without being obnoxiously hard. The garlic and cooking wine are infused into the lettuce for an impressively flavored dish. Oolong Old Fashioned - Great drink and great syrup that are indidivually well flacored and well made. Unfortunately for me, I had to ask for the drink to be extra extra sweet and I still could not taste tea flavor once the syrup was mixed in as whiskey is an overpowering flavor. That said, the tea flavor is prevelant and delicious standalone. Food: +1 Presentation: E Price: E Atmosphere: E Service: +1 Menu: +2 Insta/Yelp/Beli: @amei_eats Insta/TikTok: @ameizing.race

I wanted to finally check out the new Bellevue Din Tai Fung for my birthday lunch, and the space is absolutely beautiful. The restaurant is thoughtfully designed, beautifully decorated, and feels much more upscale than your typical lunch spot. It was completely packed during our visit, but the service never missed a beat. There seemed to be plenty of staff on hand, and we were checked on frequently throughout our meal. We're longtime Din Tai Fung fans and usually visit the U Village location. This time around we felt that our dishes were a bit saltier than usual. It may have just been an off day, as we've always had consistently great experiences at other locations. Din Tai Fung always hits the spot though. Great food, attentive service, and a beautiful new space make this location well worth a visit.

Pork soup dumplings
Ana H.

We had such a wonderful lunch; it was our first time here and only our second time ever having soup dumplings. What a delicious experience- we got Pork soup dumplings, shrimp & pork spicy wontons, garlic green beans, & their new dish fried noodles with skirt steak. I also ordered a Cucumber gimlet which was refreshingly delicious. Total was around a hundred. Josh & Matt were great; really taking the time to explain the menu to newcomers and reviewing best way to eat them. My husband said the facilities were very clean. Overall great experience, would definitely return if in the area.

Vegan Buns (2 each)
Nishant V.

Dina Tai Fung is my fav restra ! Veg spicy Wonton is to die for . Make sure to have extra garlic for string beans . Even chocolate buns were very tasty. One of the best dinning experience. I forgot the server name who mentioned every minute details Ambience is like fine dinning . For vegetarians there are plenty options

Paulina H.

This place is always a 10/10 location compared with other locations in the state. After remodeled they attracted more people! So the line is WAYYYY LONGER NOW! So either you have to wait for 2 hours or wait at the bar line if you are over 21 it might be slightly shorter but still a wait. So I highly recommend to make reservations!! Their food are always THE BEST! And you can't find any place that can replace DTF! I highly recommend to get the chocolate XLB with the sea salt cream. Also get the rice cake before they take that item out!!!!

Frank L.

5 Stars black pepper beef tenderloin. Just do it. No way you won't like it . Top 2 must order item this and XLB. Service remains top, along with prices unfortunately, yet people still come despite losing a paycheck during each visit. For the most part it is worth it, but how sustainable. Din Tai Fung is the standard for every restaurant in the world to follow. No bigger money making machine with widespread locations while keeping quality consistent.

Kurobuta Pork Xiao Long Bao (10 each)
Wisnu R.

Just like every other Din Tai Fung; it gets busy and i highly recommend to make a reservation in advance. Its a very nice restaurant and very professional staffs and great foods. But i dont think its worth waiting for more than one hour. But if you have the time; by all means its your choice. We made reservation and got seated within 5 minutes. We did not get much since it was just the two of us; but all of themm tastes great. We order shrimps siumai but they brought the sticky rice siumai instead but we still eat em anyway and it tastes great as well so no complain. What we got: Sticky rice siumai (3.5/5) Its good; but not mind blowing good Green bean w/ garlic (3.5/5) We tried it because if all the hype; its good; but nothing to be hype about; its green beans and garlic; the draw is that its simple, easy to eat, and addicting. Pork ribs (4.5/5) My favorite out of all the dishes we got. It has lots of flavor. Cucumber salad (3.5/5) While its a good refreshing dish; i think it lacks a punch; its very lightly seasoned cucumbers. Xiao long bao (4.5/5) This was really good! Very light and easy to eat; could continue eating more. Overall Its a good dim sum restaurant w/ high end vibes that matches the price. Super busy. Get a reservation!

Green String Beans with Garlic
Natalie K.

Din Tai Fung in the newly remodeled location is absolutely beautiful and huge! The place is modern and elegant. They have great seating options for small and large groups. Every single dish we ordered was amazing! We love ordering a feast every time because everything is so delicious! We got our favorites, including pork and chicken xiao long bao, spicy chicken wontons, cucumber salad, string beans with garlic, and chicken fried rice. We finished it off with chocolate dumplings with sea salt cream. The food is so good every single time I go; I'm amazed by the quality and service! I highly suggest stopping by here! Every time I've been here, there's typically a wait; however, you can join the waitlist online and shop in the mall while you wait!

Pork Chop Fried Rice (3/22/2026)
Ziyan B.

We decided to have an early dinner on Friday since we got off work a little early. Without a reservation, we wanted to test our luck with Din Tai Fung in Bellevue, knowing they're usually busy. We arrived around 4:30 pm and were pleasantly surprised to be seated within 10 minutes. The server was extremely friendly, and we really enjoyed the food, service, and ambiance. We ended up ordering more than we could finish, but we didn't mind--variety is always important! We tried the crab soup dumplings, steamed vegan dumplings, shrimp and pork wontons in chili oil, beef noodle soup, shrimp and pork potstickers, pork chop fried rice, garlic green beans, and garlic broccoli. Everything was delicious, though the green beans and broccoli were slightly on the saltier side. The beef noodle soup was superb, with tender beef and a perfectly flavored broth. The wontons weren't as spicy as expected but still tasted good. The rest of the dishes met our expectations and were just as satisfying. For this location, it's probably best to make a reservation, but if you're feeling spontaneous like we were, try going during off-peak hours. We'll definitely be back!

Service has always been on point, waiting isn't much around 5pm .. My all time favorite is their chocolate mochi and spicy chicken wontons! I love the ambience, service and food! Been on repeat once a month atleast!

I really liked the filling in the football, which contained ground pork and mushrooms, not so much the flour for the outer layer. I also liked the tripe, pea tips, and chicken feet. They were delectable. Other than that, it seemed a bit plain. I didn't really like the chili oil they used, it was more like a sambal. I'm glad we ended with the mango pudding for dessert. The mold for it was so cute. Hopefully next time I come here they change up the chili used.

One gripe: the wraps and condiments that come with the duck are pretty stingy for the price point, and extras cost you. You will almost certainly need more, so just budget for that upfront. Service is fine but nothing to write home about. Ambiance is nice though. If you're in Bellevue and craving Peking duck, this is the spot. Pricey, but the duck delivers.

That made the evening feel extra special and comfortable for our group.
