"Xiao long bao specialist Din Tai Fung will expand deeper into the San Fernando Valley with a new store at Westfield Topanga, located on the border of Canoga Park and Woodland Hills, slated to open sometime in 2027. The new outpost will join Din Tai Fung's other Southern California locations in Glendale, Century City, Arcadia, and Santa Monica, which opened on the top deck of Santa Monica Place in February 2025."
"Expect a menu similar to Din Tai Fung's other locations with its signature pork and soup-filled xiao long bao, minced pork noodles, spicy chicken wontons, and Taiwanese cabbage. The mega chain's expansion seems to be part of the ongoing revamp of Westfield Topanga's dining options. In 2023, Topanga Social opened, bringing restaurants like burger specialist Amboy, Dtown Pizzeria, and Katsu Bar to the mall. Recently, STK Steakhouse and barbecue restaurant Chubby Cattle opened, introducing two more full service options to the landscape."
"Originally founded in Taipei, Din Tai Fung expanded to the U.S. for the first time in 2000 with a location in Arcadia. Since then, the restaurant has gained a cult following for its xiao long bao and expanded to locations across the U.S. including 11 in California. The restaurant has also entered the cultural zeitgeist, with a notable shout-out in the 2025 HBO series I Love LA."
