Great service, love their dumplings. Prices are on the higher side...if you compare them to the other competitors. There was a time when my grandma would pick this place as our Sunday lunch spot.
I started coming here since they first opened. I still remember the day when I walked in...looking at the area with a team of dumpling makers and those massive tables and those piping hot xiao lung bao + pot stickers.
This Ding Tai Fung (aka Fang's) is not a part of the mega global chain, but the owners did learn all the skills from the actual chain before they opened this location. The owners themselves have a strong Shanghainese restaurant background and so I have a lot of respect for these owners---I have no idea whether it's the same owners or if they have sold the business etc---
