"This far-flung branch of the Taiwanese chain is renowned for having some of LA's tastiest Shanghai-style dumplings. Tender steamed pillows are filled with a wide assortment of savory items � pork, shrimp, beef, and even soup...."

"A few fortunate diners will be able to get an order of the restaurant's trademark dish: No. They are literally full of broth -- they look like tiny quivering water balloons, and they're served in soup because they'd barely survive sitting on a plate...."

"DTF's pork dumplings are amazing, however one of the reasons that I feel that way is actually how thin the dough is (which someone else complained about). In addition they are one of the few or only places that I have seen that actually weigh each pc of d..."

"In a land far far away (far, if you're from the SF Valley and Orange County), there exists a place that beckons people from all over Southern California to experience its culinary treasures - the Valley of San Gabriel. It's a long and arduous 45-minute jo..."

"After it was safely perched in my Chinese soup spoon, I nibbled the top off to expose its juicy innards and then sipped the hot soup welled up inside. What's left after the last drop of broth is gone, was a fatty morsel of pork and the supple noodle skin...."

"Din Tai Fung offers four varieties of sautéed vegetables. We normally order the string beans, which are simply seared with minced garlic. We ordered the baby bok choy, which was cooked the same way, crisp and delicious...."

"Rethink that vacation to Taiwan and head to this Arcadia mini-mall housing one of the best dumpling spots this side of the Pacific. The compact menu features approximately 50 options: delicate and succulent steamed dumplings, nourishing soups and vegetabl..."

"i walked into the shop, which looked like a cross between a candy shop, a drugstore with a soda fountain bar where you could sit on barstools and an apothecary shop (must be all the wood furniture in there). i sat myself comfortably down on a barstool and..."

"No trip to Los Angeles is complete without a visit to Din Tai Fung Dumpling House in Arcadia. DTF's roots trace back to Taiwan, but has since spawned into Japan and China, both in which it is experiencing immense success; its location in Arcadia, the only..."

"I finally went to Din Tai Fung which has been on my "To Eat" list for so long. Arcadia is pretty far from Mid-Wilshire LA and admittedly I do not get up early enough on the weekends to try to get the earlier, shorter than 1 hour wait that is a common char..."

"So in summary - if you like Din Tai Fung, you may want to check out the new location. Perhaps if the wait is too long at the original, you can cut through the parking lot (by walking not driving) to see how long the wait is at the new one...."

"I personally feel that the best way to evaluate a Cantonese restaurant is to observe how the chef renders his stir fry skills on meat, seafood and greens. If done correctly, these three food groups should retain its fresh, succulent and yet tender texture..."
