We went to Din Tai Fung in Downtown Disney for the first time. It just opened at the beginning of July and is a welcome addition to the Disneyland food scene.
We tried their signature Xiao Long Bao, including the chocolate dessert variety. We'll walk you through the whole process of checking in, ordering your food, what to get, how to eat the Xiao Long Bao, and more.

Thank you so much for your review of this restaurant! I always like to see what your family’s thoughts are on restaurants because we have a young child and knowing whether a restaurant will have things that kids will like is important to me. We will be in Disneyland at the end of August and I have enjoyed many of your videos. We will definitely order more chocolate baos now knowing how much I know we will all enjoy them. Looking forward to trying Din Tai Fung for ourselves.

I was just going to recommend the STRING BEANS until you mentioned it at the end! You must get them next time!! I don't want to overhype it but they are literally the best string beans I've ever had in my life! And we agree about the spicy wontons! I'm not even a spicy loving person but I looove those spicy wontons! I also prefer them over the regular xialong baos, the flavor is just phenomenal! And yessss so glad you had the chocolate xiaolong baos! I can definitely eat a whole order to myself! They are soooo good! So glad you guys finally got to try Din Tai Fung! And I can't believe you haven't been to the one in San Diego yet! I live around the area too and have been a few times since its opening so I know it's been around for a few years because the first time we went, we didnt have kids yet! 😅 I'm getting hungry now so I may have to pay a visit soon!

The food at DTF in Seattle is pretty good, but its kind of expensive. I'd rather get normal Dim Sum at a regular Chinese restaurant. Have you been to "Tim Ho Wan"? Their BBQ pork bun is very good, probably the best I've had. There used to be one located Irvine, they can be expensive too, but they have a happy hour.

@needanap2needanap232 18 дней назад

To clarify - you ordered the Chocolate & Mochi XLB (5 pcs) and not the Chocolate Buns (2 pcs)? How was the cream, needed? Was the garlic and green beans a shareable side? It seems pricy for an individual side (unless you're a vegetarian I guess). Thanks for the honest review!!

@SoCalDisneyDad 18 дней назад

Correct, yes, the Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao, I believe I wrote the item name in the video. The sea salt cream just added a nice dip for it. For $1 it's definitely worth it, and large enough if you order multiple Chocolate XLBs it'll last, so you don't need to order the cream again. All of the items are sized the way you saw in the video. So the green beans would be a portion similar to the noodles or the rice.
