At the Glendale Galleria, Din Tai Fung showcases expertly crafted Taiwanese dumplings and dishes like spicy wontons and pork fried rice, all served in a sleek, bustling setting perfect for shopping breaks.
"A popular Din Tai Fung location known for its high-quality soup dumplings and a variety of other Chinese dishes. It attracts many diners due to its convenient shopping mall location and reputation for delivering the best xiao long bao." - Matthew Kang
"In a shocking move, Din Tai Fung closed up shop at Americana at Brand and moved right across the street to the Glendale Galleria. Though the location is new, the renowned dumpling restaurant is still serving the same great Shanghai-style fare for which it’s become known. The xiao long bao is a must-order, but don’t neglect the rest of the menu. The ideal meal here is a bit of everything." - Rebecca Roland, Matthew Kang
"You don’t need us to tell you about Din Tai Fung. It’s the dumpling place your mom discovered at the Americana and won’t stop talking about. Basically, you line up, you wait a long time, you eat soup dumplings. We’ve had better soup dumplings (with much shorter waits), but what we’re here for are the far superior spicy shrimp and pork wontons. This location is much like the Glendale one, off-menu chocolate XLB dumplings you will be ordering for dessert included. Unless you’ve got your heart set on the Din Tai Fung experience, there are way better dumpling houses in the area than this one." - Jess Basser Sanders
"Perhaps we should start with the dumplings themselves, which are, of course, delicious. Worth the trip. Worth planning the trip around. Particularly the soup dumplings, or xiao long bao, which are — you could argue, and I would — the platonic ideal of the form: silky, broth-filled little clouds that explode inside your mouth upon impact. An all-timer of a dumping." - Ryan Bradley
"Oh, Din Tai Fung. With their infamously long lines and much-discussed soup dumplings, no other Chinese restaurant in LA has inspired as much awe, fear, or tweets from @Americana at Brand Memes. Their locations in Glendale, Arcadia, Costa Mesa, Century City, and Torrance are all available for delivery/takeout, so there’s no better time to get your fill of wontons, Shanghai rice cakes, and, if you’re as serious about meal prepping as we are, 20-30 orders of soup dumplings. Order through their website or on most major delivery platforms." - kat hong
