Din Tai Fung Santa Monica opened at Santa Monica Place on Level 3, just blocks from the Pacific Ocean — the only DTF location in the world with ocean views from the dining room. The intimate coastal setting combines DTF precision with the relaxed elegance of Santa Monica, featuring an open dumpling kitchen where guests can watch chefs at work. The natural light and beachside ambiance make this one of the most distinct DTF dining experiences in the US.
A must-visit for first-timers and regulars alike. The truffle Xiao Long Bao, shrimp wontons, sesame noodles, and mango shaved snow dessert are highlights. Open for lunch and dinner daily.
