Din Tai Fung

One of my favorite Taiwanese restaurants, offering contemporary Taiwanese cuisine and specializes in soup dumplings and noodles. My favorite is the red beans buns and they are so good every time. Usually busy but the place is big enough that there is an available table.

I tried many locations of theirs and this is the weakest branch in terms of food quality consistency. Try to order only some of the best sellers only.

Average wait staff service bordering on ignoring you. Food tasted a world better when I ate at this restaurant in Taiwan ~5 years ago. Quality of food did not match price. Excellent windows view though.

Love this place from Los Angeles to Bangkok. Service is trash but they make up for it in food. Until today. Let's say I wouldn't eat here ever again even if they paid me. Think of your worst nightmare and then x 3. I have a phobia. It came true.

3.5
Most of their options has pork and they can’t make it with seafood only.
Not bad the cucumber salad was the best.
And the fried rice.
The other dumplings were okay but I wished they had seafood only I tried the veggie ones.

The service was good

Amazing food! The prawn and chives roll was hands down the best thing ever! Plus the views from the restaurant add to the entire experience!

What is a visit to Bangkok without dinner at Din Tai Fung? There are some restaurants of this brand in the City. This time I tried a different at the 5th floor in a shopping centre. With COVID-19, there are not many people and thankfully there was no queue. Food, especially the Xiao long bao were great. The service was correct, helpful and friendly.

Overall, this is a great place. Food is tasty even though we were slightly disappointed the last time we visited. The service was a bit hectic, for instance we had to ask for silverware after food was on the table.
It is also a fairly noisy place
Now, still a good pick if you are craving Chinese food

Ordered 3 soups and 3 kinds of Long Bao dumplings.

Hot and sour soup was spiced very well. It contain mostly tofu and a bit of shredded pork but no shrimp. Hong Bao’s hot & sour soup, which contains shrimp, is definitely better.

The chicken soup and dumpling soup both use the same tasty chicken-based broth and hit the spot for my soup craving.

Also ordered Long bao dumplings in pork, chicken, and crab flavors. The crab wasn’t fresh and had a strong unpleasant fishy taste. Chicken was good, classic pork is best. Definitely get the Xiao Long Bao pork dumplings. This is what they’re famous for.

We got a free deep fried duck meat ravioli that came with standard bottled sweet sauce. It was ok if you like fried stuff.

Cost for this meal was 1,530 baht.

มา4คนแบบหิวๆ สั่ง24จานไม่ซำ ก็ดี อร่อย19จาน ถือว่าดีทีเดียว น้ำจิ้มรสดี บริการดี ราคาไม่แพง บางอย่างให้มาก บางอย่างน้อย พวกน้ำซุปต่างๆรสดีเลย อาหารรวดเร็ว โดยรวมถือว่าดี อร่อยใช้ได้

I don't know if it's the year-end vibe or what, but the Central Embassy branch is actually a valid choice as an alternative if CTW feels too big/crowded. Same delicious food as always, can't go wrong with the pork/shrimp xiao long baos! I'm also now a big fan of their noodle dishes, the texture and interplay with the sauce is surprisingly addictive.

Always Excellent! Spacious atmosphere with great view. Table by the window as usual. Food here is always up to standard.

Interesting experience.visited with my daughter and son in law, who have visited many of these establishments, the food was lovely.

Good dumplings, definetly not the best I had at Din Tai Fung.
The air-conditioning was so strong that we were literally turning into ice Cubes. Honestly this is a shame and total waste of ressources. I wish more places would be more environmentally aware and set decent air con temperatures.

Great food but today service was ruined by a Dao a waitress who apparently had a bad day and served us rudly and with attitude. Service could have been better for the price paid

I know it’s a upscale joint known for its dumpings. Dumplings were decent. Ordered two dish for 600 Baht.

What put me off was they treat their customers differently for sure, I wasn’t offered the tea even though they already brought the tea cup. My neighboring tables were offered not only tea but also radish salad that looks like Korean banchan.

I want the management to notice this small details.

Location: Central Embassy Bangkok DTF.
