I have been going there for many years now. Food is always great. Great service as well. One must have item that may not be too well known is the Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao - kids especially love it. read more

Great food and a consistently great experience--once you get a table. Expect a wait! Sesame Noodles, Chicken Xiao Long Bao is the best.

Food was excellent. I love their soup, dumplings and pork chop fried rice. I will definitely be returning.

Walking into Din Tai Fung Bellevue, the first thing that struck me was the decor. It's a large, open space, but the design still pulls off that warm, intimate "family dinner" feeling once you're seated. We came around 1pm on a Saturday and were looking at a 90-minute wait. Not a single complaint from us though -- the host was kind enough to send us off with a complimentary cucumber salad, which was a nice touch. Pro tip: you can reserve your spot on the waitlist via Yelp before you even arrive -- don't wait until you're at the restaurant to get in line. Onto the food: Crab & Pork Xiao Long Bao -- Nearly as good as the original location in Taiwan. The meat was fresh, though the soup dumplings weren't quite as hot as I'd have liked by the time they hit our table. String Beans -- Deceptively simple dish, but so few restaurants nail the fresh, crunchy texture the way DTF consistently does. Pork Dumplings -- The dipping sauce alone makes these worth ordering. Skirt Steak Fried Noodles -- The steak was surprisingly tender even cooked medium, and the noodles had a smoky char without ever tasting oily. Chocolate Xiao Long Bao -- Worth trying once out of curiosity, but honestly mediocre for me. The mochi layer was too thick and threw off the balance. Overall, the 90-minute wait was worth it. Bellevue's DTF continues to deliver on quality and consistency -- just wish the XLBs came out a touch hotter. read more

Visited Din Tai Fung on a Saturday at lunchtime and it was pretty busy! Join the online wait list on Yelp if you're within 3 miles of the restaurant to get a head start on the line. I got on the waitlist with 24 groups ahead of us. We were seated after a moderate wait and ordered a variety of food. The shrimp and kurobuta pork potstickers were nice and crispy, the fried pork chop noodle soup came with a nice flavorful pork chop and springy noodles, and the shrimp fried rice was delicious. The xlb had the signature soup and pork filling wrapped with the thin dumpling skin. This was my first time visiting the Bellevue location after they moved to the first floor of Lincoln Square, and it was actually quite loud with all the conversations echoing around us, making it difficult to hear the person next to you and have a conversation at our own table. Overall, food was great and service was good, but prices have definitely gone up since the last time I visited. Also, be prepared for long waitlists and a constant cacophony of sound while dining. read more

Great food in a good location. We always get the xiao long bao and the regular kubota pork bao. Garlic green beans are excellent! Fried rice is also a solid bet here. They have a pretty solid bar for drinks if that is your thing along with your standard set of Chinese restaurant drinks. Service is generally quite good - attentive staff who explain the ordering process, which is easy once you get the hand of it. Not sure what they can do about it, but my only criticism is that the place is huge and very popular. It can be noisy and even with reservations, there can be a bit of a wait to get seated. read more

The food we got was really good, and came out quick after we ordered. The ambience is great, and our waiter was very attentive. Perfect place for sharing plates! The restaurant also validates parking tickets for the underground parking garage, but the garage is free after 8pm so just something to keep in mind! read more

I have dined at Din Tai Fung's older location but the new location is absolutely banger. This place is huge like really big. When we first added us in wait-list we were 240th in queue. I was like our chance is never gonna come. But after 2 hours we were dining here. That can give you an idea of how much if dining space they must be having. Speaking of food - every thing was really good. I loved the Plum Wine and Mushroom and Veg Fried rice the most. The vegan dumplings were also very good. The chocolate Dumpling is their specialty and you can never go wrong with that. The cucumber salad is a must try appetizers although I prefer the flavor of Dough Zone more. Red Bean Bao is also great. The spicy Vegan Wonton is another great one to try out. My group enjoyed the noodles too but that wasn't my favorite food at Din Tai Fung. It felt bland without chilli sauce. By the way I absolutely love their chilli sauce 10/10. read more

Din Tai Fung is a well-known name for a reason. I don't make it there often since it's so popular and usually comes with a wait, no matter the city, but I guess that's part of what makes it such a destination. The Bellevue location recently expanded into the old Maggiano's space, and it's much bigger now. Even though it looked busy, we were seated pretty quickly for a midweek lunch. The food was, as expected, delicious. We even tried the dessert dumplings, which definitely lived up to the hype, just know they're on the smaller side. My recommendation is to order a variety of dishes and share everything with your group so you can try as much as possible. A special shoutout to our server, Ry, who was outstanding. He really knew the menu, had great recommendations, and provided top-notch service. read more

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! read more

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.

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! read more

Din Tai Fung - Kurobuta Pork Xiao Long Bao (10 each) - Taiwanese Near Me - Bellevue, Washington

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. read more

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. read more

We came around 1:30 PM on a Tuesday without a reservation. We were told there would be a 15-30 minute wait, and they took my mobile number to notify us via SMS. There was plenty of seating outside the restaurant, so we waited there. Shortly after, I received a text letting us know to return. After checking in with the front desk again, they handed me a buzzer and asked us to wait in the restaurant lobby before we were finally seated (essentially a two-step waiting process). When the host brought us to our table, we noticed the ordering sheet had already been used, even though it strangely had my name on it. We mentioned it to our server, who was very attentive and friendly, and they promptly replaced it with a brand-new ordering sheet. The Kurobuta Pork XLB arrived without the expected steam and wasn't served hot, which was a bit disappointing. We also felt the Taiwanese Cabbage with Garlic could have been cut into smaller, more bite-sized pieces. On the other hand, the Fried Noodles with Skirt Steak was a pleasant surprise--the steak was tender, flavorful, and paired really well with the noodles. We also appreciated the spacious seating throughout the restaurant. Parking in the garage was validated for up to three hours. read more

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. read more

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!!!! read more

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! read more

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! read more

I feel very fortunate to have a Din Tai Fung and in fact, four different restaurants in Seattle. Din Tai Fung is one of my favorite Asian restaurants! And honestly anything that you order here is so delicious. Let me just do a recap of some of my favorite dishes: Xạo Long Bao soup dumplings, fried pork, chopped fried rice, shrimp fried noodle, braised beef noodle soup, cucumber salad, the iconic green beans, and spicy wontons. They also have this delicious drink that is a green tea topped with sea salt creme! The latest one is the Matcha green tea version and it's so good. Out of all of the Din Tai Fung locations, I prefer the Bellevue and the mall with it rich architecture, warm/moody ambience, curated space, the fountain and luxe bar.. perfect for a date night! 5/5 would recommend this restaurant to anyone coming to Seattle that have not experienced a DTF. read more

You can never go wrong with DTF, and this location was no different. Beautifully decorated inside, with a warm, cozy ambiance that makes you feel like you're in a fine-dining restaurant. I ordered the pear lychee martini to start, and it wasn't too sweet and had the perfect balance of pear and lychee flavors. We ordered the wood ear mushrooms, crab and pork XLB, pork XLB, shrimp and pork spicy wontons, braised beef noodle soup, shrimp and pork shao mai, and their stir-fried chicken noodles. Everything was delicious! Although the meat was super tender, I felt the braised beef noodle soup was a bit underseasoned and the most underwhelming dish we ordered. Overall, food was great, and the service was impeccable! read more

We had a huge group of maybe 10-ish on a weekend midafternoon and waited just a bit before they were able to seat us at a huge semiprivate table. We needed vegetarian options and they had enough things that we had our pick. My favorite thing at dinner tai fung is actually their shao mai. It's different from the shrimp type you'd get at a cantonese dim sum but is instead sticky rice and fragrant mushrooms which I grew up loving in china and thought i'd just never find in the states until the first time I ate at dtf. My only complaint is I wish we had a lazy susan lol . So many people and so many dishes and yet no way to rotate read more

If you already like other dumpling places like Dough Zone, you'll also enjoy the food here. The prices are slightly higher, but it's a nicer atmosphere and often with bigger portions anyway. For example, Dough Zone offers 6 soup dumplings per basket, and here they offer 10. Personally, I mostly come for the choco buns, they're so good! We came on a weekday and it was surprisingly busy, but the staff made sure to treat us well. After a bunch of trouble with the yelp waitlist, they fast lined us to a seat. Thanks so much team! read more

Our first time to Din Tai Fung and we absolutely LOVED IT. First of all, the ambience of the restaurant is very chic and yet cozy and really feels like an elevated dinner experience. Second, our server was very attentive and friendly and her service was impeccable. Third, the food itself was DELICIOUS. We've seen this restaurant all over social media, but we really felt like it lived up to the hype. The green beans were to die for and we felt like the food came out in a timely manner. We also ordered the chicken wontons and the fried chicken noodles which were also delicious. The ONLY downside to this restaurant is that it is inside the mall and parking nearby is difficult to figure out especially if you aren't familiar with the area. Would definitely recommend coming here! read more

Been to dine tai fung too many times, but first time to this new place in Bellevue. This one used to be maggiano. This one is wayyyy bigger than the previous Bellevue one or Southcenter one. This location has a lot of tables, plenty of round big tables for big group. Also have seating at the barlagging. Restroom: male and female restrooms Reservation: you can reserve or join wait list via yelp. Or stop by like what we did. We were fortunate to stop by and check in by noon on Sunday before a wave of diners arrive to get in. When we left, lots of ppl waiting outside. Service: good, friendly and fast. We ordered our usual: Pork kurabota xlb Garlic green bean Pork chop fried rice Shrimp pork spicy wonton Cucumbers Black sesame mochi xlb Things have changed besides the size has shrunk a lot and price increase. Green bean are salty. The mochi xlb is not even hot. So the quality control have gone done since the last time we were here.

I am most familiar with the Din Tai Fung in downtown Arcadia California (on Baldwin Avenue) where I began taking my family in the early 2000s, and the larger newer Din Tai Fung at the Westfield Mall (though it is MUCH MORE than a mall). I have eaten at both of these locations numerous times, as well as other branches for a few favorites, and it is clear to me that every Din Tai Fung has the same menu and the same good service. So the Din Tai Fung in Bellevue, WA will offer food just as delicious as all of the others. read more

Came on a Thursday afternoon for lunch, and we were quickly seated. Service throughout the visit was fantastic as expected from a Din Tai Fung. The interior decor is fabulous, with dim lights and Taiwanese inspired arches and design. Many din Tai Fung are now pretty expensive for their famous Xiao Long Bao, so expect to be paying basically $20 for 10 dumplings. The price is the main reason for the four stars, as you can pretty easily find other Xiao Long Bao with relatively similar taste for much cheaper at another shop. I guess Din Tai Fung has now become pretty elevated and high class dining for which they can charge their $20 per order. Also, if you ask for extra ginger and get a big one, they add $2 for LARGE ginger. Our server did not warn us at all. Recommend just getting the regular small ginger plates, and ask for upcharges at this spot. Xiao Long Bao: 9/10, $20 - Fantastic like usual! Soft yet firm skin, filled with soup, and delicious meat on the inside. Gold standard soup dumplings, but again, quite pricey Wontons: 10/10, ~$15 - The chili sauce that the wontons are drenched in is probably the best chili sauce I've ever had in my life. Wow, I could just eat bowls of this wonton with the chili sauce. Definitely trying to learn to re-create this at home. - definitely recommend getting the wontons here. Overall, pretty expensive and fine dining location now, but the flavor is very consistent throughout all the din tai fung locations. Soup dumplings are good, Wontons I would say are even better when drenched in their chili sauce. They charge extra without letting you know for large ginger, and prices are pretty high overall nowadays. read more
