Din Tai Fung opened its first New York location on 42nd Street in Times Square in 2024, bringing the Taiwanese soup-dumpling chain's New York debut after decades of pilgrimages to Arcadia and Glendale. The room is large by Din Tai Fung standards and the lines started before the doors opened.
OpenTable lists the room and the prime-time tables clear in minutes. The standby line is a real path in, especially weekday lunches and the late seatings; the bar takes walk-ins for the full menu.
