Customer Reviews
I went with my Chinese friend, and it was absolutely incredible. The food was so good it blew my mind. We spent around $45, which included 1 pound of food (priced at $15 per pound) and two drinks. I loved being able to customize everything and pick all the ingredients I wanted—it made the experience even better. I asked the staff about the spice levels, and they warned me that the extra spicy was really intense. As a Korean, I opted for the regular spicy this time, and honestly, it wasn’t very spicy at all—probably mild by Korean standards. Next time, I’m definitely trying the extra spicy! The ingredients were super fresh, and there was plenty of parking, which was really convenient. The place seems pretty popular. We didn’t have to wait, but I can see there being a line during busy lunch hours. Also, there’s a fantastic boba spot nearby! Grabbing a drink there after your meal is the perfect finishing touch. I’ll absolutely be going back—it was just that good!
Came here about maybe two weeks ago? Although the line for it was quite long, I do think it was worth the wait. I got the tomato broth and it was so savory and delicious. I actually prefer this tomato broth over the tomato broth in one of the other malatang places nearby. I also think their signature broth is quite delicious. Good selection of noodles, meats, and toppings. I really enjoyed dining here and despite the hectic dinner rush, the staff was pretty organized. I will come back again and recommend this place!
My current favorite malatang spot. They have all the ingredients/sauces I want and everything is always fresh in my experience. The value is good compared to other malatang places I've been to, and they even give fruit most of the time. I like the tomato, golden chicken, and signature mild spicy beef broth. Favorite ingredient is obviously the beef--I get at least 10pcs each time. 😌 Currently they give a voucher per pound for the next visit; I usually get around 1 lb, so it's perfect. They also have takeout available which is super convenient. Seating is best for smaller parties, and the space is considered small. Service is good and quick. The wait can be long and parking can be annoying during peak hours, so I like to come early.
Normally I would give good reviews but the takeout(delivery) portion size is just tooo small. It barely covers the bottom of the bowl. This costs 31 dollars after tax.
First time here and I love it. The food is good and you can put as much as you want in the bowl. So since I’m a meat lover, I started at the end of the buffet line then moved toward the veggies. I was skeptical that would get full but not even half way in and I’m stuffed. I would come back for sure. Great service as well, the gentleman at the cash register explained how it worked, it being my first time. Very friendly and helpful.
