“The staff is friendly and responds tactfully to customers. Taste is okay. The restaurant is clean, so customers like it. Unless a new Chinese restaurant opens in this area, it will likely be exclusive for a long time.It's a shame that the sweet and sour pork doesn't have chewy meat.“
“The star dish: black bean noodles. If a dish has me hooked on every bite, I can literally make space even on a full stomach. This dish was 'it's: savory, 'al dente' noodles. Well made and a simple dish. The Sweet and Sour Pork (Beijing Style). Is what the restaurant is well known for. The big difference with this dish is that there's no red coloring in the sauce. I like how they served the sauce on top of the pork. This prevented the meat from becoming soggy from being drenched in sauce. I was not too impressed with the garlic beef. My guess is that they used some sort of tenderizer, which threw off the texture of the meat. It was okay, but not impressive. I went on a Saturday afternoon, when the restaurant was crowded. Wait time was around 30 minutes. The restaurant is nice and clean.“
“I heard about this place by word of mouth and came across a discount code if I ordered though the app. One day I was in the mall feeling sick and with a sore throat, so thinking back on it, I used the promo code and ordered two cups of kake broth.That was the best broth I've ever had!I've come back many times since, trying various different things on the menu. Their noodle dishes are delicious and I love their tempura! I can't understate how good the food is!Sometimes, when I'm in the mall, I'll order a cup of broth just because.Parking: Mall parking costs $2/hr after the first two hours.Wheelchair accessibility: It's in the second floor of the mall, which is accessible by elevator or the second story of the adjacent parking structure.“

“I was killing time in Valley Fair and have always heard about Ox 9 Lanzhou Handpulled Noodles and loved they had a location in a mall food-court! I ordered the Lanzhou Handpulled Noodles Soup with the medium round noodles. The noodles and meat both tasted very fresh, and I loved adding the chili oil to the broth. There weren't that many people in line when I went, so my food came out very fast. I wish my area had malls with food courts as good as Valley Fair!“
“Delicious rice noodle with great broth. I was really happy with the beef shank noodle soup. Rice noodles have light chewy texture, broth is flavorful and balanced, not too rich. Plenty of tender meat chunks. I just wish there are more veggies in the soup.“
“I'm not sure if there's an option to reserve here, but everytime I've come there is about a 10-15 minute wait-- I guess a testament to how good the food really is!If you're not super hungry, you might want to consider sharing with a friend, as the portions are quite nice and filling. The ratio of noodle-meat-broth-veggie is done well, something that many ramen restaurants often can't achieve. The charsiu is meat is soft and fatty (but in the good way) and I was actually wishing for more pieces of just that!The interior of the restaurant is nothing super special (which is fine), and you'll likely eat and dash, not somewhere that I'd stay for more time to hang out.“
“(Translated by Google) Overall, everything is okay, especially the tray jjajang and jjambbong are very delicious. The fry kitchen closes at 6:20 PM.(Original)전반적으로 다 괜찮고 특히 쟁반짜장, 짬뽕 아주 맛있습니다. 오후 6:20부터 튀김류 주방 마감입니다.“
“Din Tai Fung is a top contender for my favorite Chinese restaurant. Their Hot & Sour Soup and Crab & Pork Xiao Long Bao are absolute must-tries. These perfectly formed soup dumplings are a burst of flavor in every bite!Today, I ventured beyond my usual favorites and tried the Cod Dumpling and Vegetable & Pork Wonton Soup. Both were delicious, but they didn't quite reach the same level of wow-factor as my usual picks.Pro tip: To avoid a wait, consider reserving a table in advance. They also have bar seating for a more casual option during off-peak hours.Overall, Din Tai Fung is a fantastic restaurant with consistently delicious food. Love it!“
