Everything You Need to Know About Din Tai Fung - Now Open at Downtown Disney! | Foodie Review
Disclosure: Din Tai Fung hosted me and Kevin with a complimentary meal at their Downtown Disney location. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Din Tai Fung invited me and Kev to their soft opening last night and I couldn’t be happier that we finally have a location on Disney property! I haven’t been to Din Tai Fung since our Taiwan trip back in 2018, and I still remember when they opened their very first US location in Arcadia (who else is a 626 kid?!) - it was always a treat whenever we got to eat there!
Please note that Din Tai Fung is currently open at Downtown Disney (1547 Disneyland Dr, Anaheim, CA 92802) by reservation only for limited menu service from 11:30am to 9pm. The restaurant will be open for full-service in July.
Downtown Disney parking is at the Simba Lot, located off of Disneyland Dr. The first hour of parking costs $10, but you can enjoy up to 5 additional hours with validation from Din Tai Fung.
