    juicy pork dumplings are a mustt if you go here. always get at least one of those, and i also really love their green beans, chicken rice cakes, and spicy wontons. Also get their smoothies w/ boba!!!

    Bok Choy with garlic is amazing. Shrimp and pork soup dumpling is the best. And the pork sticky rice is filled with tender fatty pork loin -- don't miss

    This place is amazing. All of the garlic veggie plates are good sides. Always get several kinds if dumplings. The shrimp and pork wontons are a great addition to your meal as well.

    Highly recommend the shrimp and pork wonton with spicy sauce and the shrimp and pork pot stickers. Delicious!! We also had the shaved ice dessert, an aquired taste but great new experience.

    Guests line up for the popular xiao long bao (juicy, steamy, one-bite soup dumplings), but the menu includes a variety of dishes, from pan-fried pork cutlets to the most full-bodied chicken soup.

    Din Tai Fung is known for its high-quality xiao long bao, but also try the shrimp and pork shao mai. Also, bar seating can help you avoid the long waits in the main dining area.

    Can’t go wrong with any of the dumplings but my fave are the soup dumplings and the spicy wontons - which has a nice light spicy sauce that’s not overly greasy like some I’ve had in the past.

    Juicy Pork or Juicy Crab & Pork Dumplings. Let it explode in your mouth or poke a hole in it to let it drip in your spoon! Then dip!

    The best soup dumplings I've had. Make sure to dip them in the black vinegar and top with a piece of ginger. Don't sleep on the pork ribs.

    The best dumplings in Taiwan, somehow available in Bellevue. Get the pork soup dumplings and the pork and shrimp shao mai.

    One of the best meals I've had in a long time. The braised beef soup, the sauteed bok choi and especially the pork xiao long bao were all fantastic!

    Juicy pork dumpling is absolutely the best, the spicy beef noodle soup is a good partner for the dumplings. You can not go wrong at this place, the only thing better is going to Hong Kong.

    Juicy pork dumplings are great. I like the hockey dumplings and the fried noodles. The shrimp fried rice is tasty. You really can't go wrong with anything. Even the spinach is amazing.

    Terrific dumplings, but that's expected. Our waiter Andy was, perhaps, the nicest and most efficient server I've seen anywhere. Let's make him famous! Oh, and try the shrimp dumplings. Here's a photo

    Check out the dumpling prep from the window. It may be a long wait for your reservation, but the food is worth it. Try everything.

    Try pork & shrimp soup dumplings and shaved ice as dessert. Food wasn't as good as their Taipei location but was still very delicious! Expect to wait an hour for a table at dinner.

    Gotta put the Xiao long bao in the spoon and let some of that broth drain into the spoon so that it cools down, so you can put it all in your mouth!

    Tasty soup dumplings, skip the truffle options, go for the pork or the crab and pork dumplings. Chicken soup also recommended

    It's all about the XLB, but if you need to round out with a few sides, the pork chop fried rice, green beans, and wontons w/ chili sauce are (almost) equally special.

    One of the few place to enjoy Chinese food while listening to Beyoncé lol. Slightly pricy but service was good. The table napkins looked like they could use a better cleaning though.

    This place is known as Taiwanese, but the menu has authentic flavors from coastal mainland China, too. Reminds me of Beijing's fancy Southern China/Hong Kong/Taiwan style restaurants.
