M.

One of the bigger Ding Tai Fungs in Singapore, and by bigger I mean they even got a robot to send you to your table! Which is always a delight to first timers to this branch. Service is amazing and the food quality’s consistent with every branch. Can’t go wrong here and definitely recommend this outlet if you’re in the Orchard area.

Kelly from DTF Paragon provided exceptional service, she was very polite and attentive to all our needs without us even having to ask. Some examples, like when our kid dropped the chop sticks, she immediately replaced them, when we were using our straws to break the ice in our drinks, she served us forks to ease the process. All the other staff also provided great service. Truly a wonderful dining experience for our family. We left with our bellies full and our hearts contented!

Tried their special chilli crab dumpling (limited time) it was tasty but not hot spicy and you can really taste the crab meat. A go to when you feel like simple satisfying meal.

The most Xiao Long Bao you must try to eat in Ding Tai Fung restaurant 🥹. I have eaten all food in there including Dumplings, fried rice, spicy noodles, vegetables….one word can express my taste is appetizing 😋. The crust very thin, succulent and full of meat made by hand 🥟. If you go, you will take a line up. Maybe about 20 minutes, don't worry the saff service is too fast, you can wait until your number. This is my food list when i come Singapore hhhh 🤩. In there also have a the filling is truffle mushrooms Xiao Long Bao, you can try ahh. Will come back and eat all food in there again 😋. Hope you enjoy 😊

Taiwanese Dumplings of a different standards. U must try to belived. Great taste & the dumpling skin thin, tangy & strong. Will not break & able to hold the savoury juice within. Best part, it's standards never drop regardless which country you visit. Only set back is u ve to pay $2 for the basics like hot tea (used to be free). Understand cost of living have gone up but a cup of tea is definitely affordable considering the premium price u pay there. So I am pretty disappointed about that. Lastly, the seasonal c Chili Crab Dumplings is a failure. Didn"t taste tat great to me & awfully expensive. I will not recommend that, so try at your own discretion. Maybe you will like it. Suggest if u want Chilli Crab, go to a seafood restaurant for the real chili Crab

Predictably good place for light Chinese food Best is the pork dumplings which oozes the juices when you bite them. Some Asian salads, fried shrimp paste chicken wings, hot soups, noodles and more dumplings are really good combinations for light meal.

M. A. L.

Amazing food! Must on our list when we travel. Please add the same amount of veg options like London Din Tai Fung!

F. P.

Everything was perfect, from the food to the service. I highly suggest, even tho expensive, the truffle pork xiao long bao. They are amazing if you're a truffle lover. Highly recommended!

J. N.

By far and away, the best dish here is the truffle dumpling! While it is rather pricey, the flavour of these little morsels is well worth the splurge. I also loved the roselle drink, a very well balanced sweet yet savoury drink that arrives adorned with a tiny little fruit. Service is quick and efficient, perfect for a fast meal.

C. S.

Tried for lunch and found the service good but the food lacks the wow factor. The Xiao Long Bao is good (and you get a replacement if one breaks) but the rest of the dim sum was just ok. The duck roll was super oily and the fried rice was fine but not great. Overall, overhyped and quite pricey for what it is - you can get tastier dim sum in Singapore for much less.

L. R.

Dim sum is great specially Xia Long Bao, most of menu is good, such as noddles

Y. V.

I tried this spot in Vegas and was eager to have it again when I saw it in the Changi Airport. The dumplings were so good and the pork xiao long bao is a favorite. I also got the crispy pork and noodle soup which was good. We had a ton of luggage and the staff helped accommodate us while we ate our dinner.

M. H.

Angela Parisi and I went to Din Tai Fung Paragon twice for the pork soup dumplings and do miao. So delicious! Soup dumplings are bite sized and just melts in your mouth. The do miao is so delicate and mild. Definitely 5 stars!

My favorite restaurant chain in Asia. First time that I ate at Din Tai Fung Paragon. We were a bit late for lunch so we had to rush with the order. But after getting the food the stuff made no pressure because of the closing time. Service is fantastic. Food was delicious. The noodles are a dream. The xiao long baos were a delicacy. This place is heaven on earth. Hard to see that this chain is not expanding in Europe. Just only in London. ☹

m.

It's been awhile since I've been to din tai fung but they never seize to amaze me. We ordered the 蛋炒饭 which was a really simple dish yet it was extremely fragrant. I highly recommend the 千层油糕 as well! Super soft and the sweetness just melts in your mouth. And lastly, you definitely have to eat the xiaolongbao! The best you can find

O. T.

Never a bad experience in Din Tai Fung ☺️ always looking forward to July and August for their seasonal Chilli Crab Xiao Long Baos.

g. d. l. f.

Really worth trying. In my opinion the best Taiwanese dim sum restaurant chain. Very recommendable.

n. h.

It's really hard to choose the menus here because all of the them are soooo good.. with the open kitchen concept, makes enjoying the meals here one level up

r.

We like this outlet because it’s so much less packed than the other ones, especially if you go for an early weekend dinner. No queue outside (unlike JEM) and the tables are more widely spaced inside too. Much more relaxing than the other outlets—even when it gets busy it’s just not as noisy and chaotic.

P.

Safe place to eat for dim sum and Chinese food. Everything is fresh made and always delicious. Pork Xiao Long Bao and crispy duck pastry are a must to try. For drinks highly recommend iced earl grey lemon tea 🍋! For a 2 person meal you can expect to spend anywhere between 45~120 SGD.

J.

Standard never drops and they are constantly producing new creative items in the menu. Tried the chocolate bun today and it was really good!

C. E.

Generally like this place and tried a couple of new dishes I've never eaten on the menu! Did not disappoint.

E. d.

The signature dumplings are IMO the best in town! Unrivalled 👍 Will never come here without ordering the dumplings. Other favourites of mine include the fried rice & spicy dumplings 😁

W. K.

Super good; delicious; reliable.. highly recommended.. lotsa tourists and expats today on the first day of Rabbit New Year 2023

S. H.

Simply delicious food! The dimsums are perfectly prepared

A. S.

By far the most consistent care and taste I have come across! Din Tai Fung never fails to deliver their best soup filled Dim Sums, Egg fried rice and chilli cucumber that is out there. Unquestionably the most popular dim sum restaurant in Singapore and probably world over. You must visit this place!

V.

The food has maintain its standard. Forgot to take pic of the other dishes and they are all eaten up.

S. B.

Long waiting times if coming at peak hours, but food is always great. Need to reintroduce the truffle mushroom Xiao long bao. I would say that the only thing they need to do is make more dishes for vegetarians that have no mushroom as my wife hates mushroom and most dishes contains mushrooms.

D. K.

Service standard dropped quite a bit since temasek breadtalk won the franchise of operation in Singapore.

S. S.

Din Tai Fung is hands down one of the best lunch places I've ever been to! It's definitely my favorite spot to grab a bite to eat. The food is absolutely delicious and the service is outstanding. One dish that is an absolute must-try is the fried rice. It's so flavorful and perfectly cooked, with just the right amount of seasoning and ingredients. And of course, the Xiao Long Baos are a must-order as well. These soup dumplings are some of the best I've ever had, with a juicy filling and a delicate, perfectly steamed wrapper. While I absolutely love Din Tai Fung, I should mention that my husband doesn't always share my enthusiasm. He sometimes finds the portion sizes to be a bit too small for his liking, which can be a downside for those with a bigger appetite. However, I personally find the portion sizes to be just right, and I think that the quality of the food more than makes up for any concerns about portion size. That being said, if you're someone who likes larger portions, it's worth keeping this in mind. However, I would still highly recommend giving Din Tai Fung a try, as the food is truly exceptional and the service is fantastic. It's definitely one of my favorite lunch spots, and I'm always eager to go back!

Had a great time with uni friends here. Din Tai Fung never disappoints. Standard is always consistent.

V.

Great food and great staff. my favorite Din Tai Fung branch is Paragon.

M. N.

For those who are Muslim, very few items are without pork

K. D.

Great service. They kept our water full and the food came out perfectly timed. We got a table right away and it was a quiet atmosphere with food delivered consistently and timely.

J. C.

Food quality is consistently good. I don’t think you can easily find another comparable offer in Singapore. Be reminded everything comes with a price. Not cheap at all.

C. N.

Food is nice but getting pricey.

E. P.

Reliable and comfortable place to dine at. Like others, we love their pork Xiao Long Bao, the salad appetizer, fried rice and lemon tea. Their beef soup is also flavourful and comforting. Don't think much. Just dine here.

B. B.

We ended up here for a late dinner. You can have nice wontons and noodle soups there. Price is quite affordable. A friend liked the rice-cake dades too, it was not the best for my taste though

K.

Absolutely amazing, especially loved the dim sum and egg rice ! Also really nice drinks, they serve their iced teas with ice cubes made from the drink itself, really great idea ! Very worth it, loved the atmosphere as well !

J.

XLBs very meh, felt they weren’t worth the hype. Delicious shrimp egg fried rice though!

N. T.

The xiao long bao are an obvious must-have - always consistently delicious, with a thin wrapper and tasty filling. Our other favourite dishes are the egg fried rice with prawn, and the cucumber with chilli sauce. We tried the red bean and chocolate xiao long bao which was an interesting taste but worth a try! Be prepared to wait 10-30mins for a table during lunch time. And bring a sweater since inside is airconditioned!

S. N.

Went after peak hours not as crowded. Food is good

K. H. T.

Din Tai Fung is still the best in Taiwan. Here in orchard paragon, the restaurant seems to be under-staffed and service is quite bad. As for the food, the fried rice was cold when it was served. The ambience is quite good though, very spacious and comfortable with nice decorations.

p. P.

Beautiful xia long bao (soup dumplings), noodle dishes and so on. DTF is my go to when in SE asia/europe/the USA... why are they not in New Zealand???

K. R.

Excellent dumplings, soups, stir fry and fried rice. Everything we tried was very good. The staff was efficient and friendly which helped make this an enjoyable lunch experience.

A. A.

The food was quite alright, but not as good as it has been popularised to be. Perhaps not the best place in terms of the service, but the servers were largely polite, and the restaurant overall was sufficient.

C. S.

Awesome food. If you go at peak hours expect a wait. Try to hit there around 4:30pm before the rush. Hot and sour soup is so good

A.

Avoid rush hour. Great noodle and dumpling Things to try: Steamed Pork dumpling Vermicelli soup with minced meet rolls Special braised beef noodle with soup Oriental salad in special vinegar dressing Noodles with minced beef in bean sauce Crispy golden Prawn pancake

l. c.

You can always count on DTF for good food and service. Now with their digital queue and ordering systems, it's definitely leveled up ♥

p. h.

Pretty crowded at noon, but no long waiting time. Noodle soup with beef and the dumpings were tasty, payment by cashier when leaving.

C. L.

Service 4 star only because wait staff interrupted our conversation (yep we were talking) just to get us to complete a survey

M. L.

This is the first resturant open in Singapore I think. One of the dishes I like is the "小菜". Of course there are other more dishes that is nice too

A. A.

2023/end of December When you come abroad, you should try it and see what the differences are. Black vinegar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! vinegar Why can they use black vinegar, but we have to use rice vinegar, or they can’t coexist??? I love black vinegar, and their black vinegar is super delicious, sour and slightly sweet, and it goes very well with soup dumplings. Delicious! I want black vinegar~ If the service is compared with Taiwan, it is still a bit worse. In addition, tea is also a bit inferior, why not take this opportunity to promote Taiwanese tea... What a pity! Because the tea at the Bangkok branch is also updated! Try Taiwanese tea! Come on!

A. C.

The portion for two people accidentally ordered too much 😂 The store will refill a small steamed bun for you if it breaks. Although you have been told that you don’t need to refill it, the store insists on quality and gives you 100 points.

T. K.

Din Tai Fung for the first time in a while, The price has gone up, probably because I ate at Paragon. There are many better and cheaper restaurants in Singapore with this level of taste. circle It may be good for tourists, but it's probably not worth going for locals.

o. k.

I think it's more vacant than Marina Bay Sands! The staff are kind, it's clean, and it's delicious! ! I really enjoyed it. This is a store I definitely want to visit again. I really loved the truffle xiaolongbao, but my kids and husband didn't like it!

T. N.

The restaurant has the best Dimsum dishes I have ever eaten. Great noodles, stir-fried vegetables are also very ok, delicious dumplings. Attentive and clean service. Prices are not cheap but very reasonable and customers are satisfied.

E.

Very large restaurant in the mall, easy to find. The menu is very well stocked, the dumplings are excellent. You can see the chefs making the dumplings behind the glass. Possibility of a small living room to be more peaceful. An incredible address we will come back.
