Malatang is always a fun concept to eat so I was excited to try this place out! I was impressed by the selection of noodles, veggies, and fish balls as there was so much variety- honestly top tier compared to any other malatang place I've been to. However... I'm not a fan of any of their meats as they were all very chewy and didn't taste fresh but since the other 3 categories carry so well, this isn't a huge issue for me as the pot was still very well balanced. We were shocked by the level of spice our "medium" pot got, you can see the photo for reference. It was a herbally spice too, which wasn't really my fav so we scooped most of the spice out and it also just made it quite oily so we'd opt for mild next time. Everything else was good though, our pot shared between 2 people cost over $50 for over 2 pounds worth of food. The customer service was great too, the workers were friendly and efficient. I'm not sure how often I would crave Mala Town but I can see why it's so popular and can't wait to try different variations next time! read more

This place is always perfection. It's one of my Favorite comfort meals, especially on these cold nights. This is experience however, was different. So my partner and I have fancy dinner plans for thanksgiving at a restaurant downtown, however, when we got there, we just weren't feeling it. We were hoping for something more comforting. We were hoping Malatown was open and it was!!! We were so happy. We walked in and were so warmly greeted by VICKY! Aw man, she was so kind and really made our night. She chatted with us as we were building our bowls and gave us her recommendations. We were sat and our food came out promptly. VICKY came by to check on us a few times and brought us rice for free. She helped us pack our food and insisted that we take our meal home in a Malatown insulated bag instead of a plastic one. She really made our thanksgiving perfect read more

Love this place! FOOD You go in, grab a bowl and tongs, and put whatever ingredients you want in your bowl. There are lots of options. I saw some unique ingredients that I've never seen before at other places which was cool. I think these kind of places are great too for big parties because it can accommodate to different dietary restrictions. Then when you get to the cashier, you can pick your soup base. Like similar places, you pay by the pound. I think the pricing is similar to other places. There is also a sauce bar so you can make your own sauces. I usually load mine with the sesame ones but I don't think you can go wrong with other selections too. It's very customizable. SERVICE This is the most notable and memorable part of my experience. The owner (I'm assuming) is so knowledgeable, welcoming, and funny! I'd come back again just for him. He truly knows excellent customer service. It looks like a lot of people who come here are regulars which says a lot about a restaurant. We went on a Friday evening and it was busy and packed but service was fast and our food came out relatively fast after it was cooked. OVERALL ATMOSPHERE This place was so clean and nicely lit. The ingredients bar and sauce bar were very clean and organized. Plenty of seating. PARKING Easy. Big plaza parking. GOOD TO KNOW If you have leftovers, the workers encourage taking it home! I saw people do this and I think it's generally normal practice too at malatang places. There are to-go boxes for your meals as well as containers to take sauces home as well. Overall, I'd come here again if I was in the area! read more

When my family wanted to go try Mala Town I had never heard of it. I thought to myself..... oh crap! I hate mala. I don't like food too spicy and I hate that numbing spice. But, of course being the good daughter in law and wife that I am I said great let's go and looked it up on YouTube. When I saw the videos I started to get excited. It wasn't only spicy food it was hotpot made with ingredients you choose from a buffet of various meats, vegetables, noodles and sauces. The price is $15.99 a pound. When you walk in you get a bowl similar to the salad bowl at Olive Garden and a pair of tongs and you go and fill it with what you want in the hot pot. Then they weigh it for you and ask which broth you want and you pay for it. They bring it to your table when it's done. It's that simple. They have complimentary water and tea or there is a refrigerator full of different beverages to purchase. I had the beef bone broth which had a creamy delicate flavor reminiscent of a tonkotsu ramen broth. I had basically just a few different cuts of beef and cabbage and bokchoy. It was so perfect on a chilly night. My husband had the signature beef broth which had a deeper beef flavor with the same ingredients. We wanted Nappa but it had run out when we went through the line. The only cons were that about a third of the items had run out when we were there. I guess they don't keep up well during little rushes in business. This is disheartening because you can't go back and get what you missed like a regular buffet. They also don't serve dessert. I don't know about you but I always have room for dessert no matter how much I eat. Last note, my Brother in law got the Signature beef broth with medium spice and it had about two full tablespoons of chili flakes and chili oil in it. He dad to go get a cup to scoop some out. So maybe ask for mild unless you like super spicy like Mikey Chen and you can always add some more from the sauce area. If I could give 4.5 stars I would. The flavor and concept is 5 stars but I would take half a star for not keeping the ingredients stocked and for the little blip I had with the man who asked my brother about my service dog then told another employee that he didn't think he looked like a service dog so sent her to ask my husband. He is most definitely a trained service dog. I don't know if he had a certain look in his mind of what a service dog looks like but that's like saying I don't think you are a doctor because you have blue eyes. read more

Love this spot. Go-to place to get build your self hotpot. Ingredients are fresh and versatile. Great service!

This place is falling off in terms of quality. When I first came here, they had quality ingredients, better than in a regular AYCE hot pot. They had enoki mushrooms and large intestines, which are two of my favorites but very hard to find in restaurants now. Last few times I came, they stopped carrying the intestines. Huge disappointment because I always come here craving it and now I don't expect to find it here anymore. Today, they didn't even have enoki mushrooms. So why eat here when you can pay like $5 more and eat at happy lamb or shabuya with the same quality food, happy lamb is actually better quality, and it's all you can eat? Whereas here it's all weighed and they ingredients aren't even special. Spending $25 to eat a mediocre, limited quality hot pot. No thanks. The server also walks around unsmiling, no words. When I asked about the intestines she just said they don't have it, no quantifiers. Although last time someone told me they will have it again and I think he lied. Tea is all out and not refilled. I'm over this place. read more

I love this build your own hot pot spot in Chinatown! After walking in, there's a long bar where you can add all the veggies and meat you desire. The staff weigh your bowl and you choose a soup base.

Every day is a good day for hot pot--but especially on a rainy day because nothing says "self- are" like boiling your problems away in a bubbling pot of soup. And let me tell you... Mala Town is basically therapy, but tastier. Rainy day? Mala Town. Good day? Mala Town. Bad day? Also Mala Town. Bored? Guess what, Mala Town. If comfort had a flavor, it would be simmering in one of their pots. Already planning my next visit... and probably the one after that too. read more

They wrongly put the others person order on my table and blamed me for not telling them which I didn't aware. I thought that plate was the extra of mine buz I took a lot and can't recognize my order Rude and not respectful Edit: I didn't take any of your extra plate and put it on the counter by myself When I tried to call the waiter to clean up that plate, he completely ignored me I feel like they are not professionals, they blame customers for their mistakes read more

FANTASTIC - truly, hit the spot and was exactly what I was craving. Follow them on instagram because they seem to have specials pretty often that get you up to 50% off! I loved their selection of veggies and meat and was sad that their main bone broth was out, but the Szehuan was spicy, but flavorful and you can even get a side of the peanut sauce if you want to try it. Their condiments are always filled and the tables were cleaned and well maintained. Overall, would come again. read more

Recently went to Mala Town on a weekend evening for the first time with some friends and had a great experience! My friend and I shared a bowl and picked about 1.5 lbs of ingredients, including fish balls, beef rolls, vermicelli noodles, and mushrooms, which came out to roughly $25. We chose the Sichuan-style soup base, which was super flavorful and not too spicy. While they were prepping our hot pot, I checked out the complimentary station where you can make your own dipping sauce, and highly recommend the satay sauce with chili oil if you want some extra heat! I also had a few cups of the jasmine tea, which was refreshing and paired really well with the spice. Overall, a great experience, and I'll definitely be coming back more often for sure! read more

Great service and atmosphere. The ingredients are always fresh! Definitely a great place to go to whether by yourself or with a group.

A great plus are the broths, each option a recommended choice for any craving. I like the Szechuan broth for a nice spicy kick but the House Broth (which you can choose the spice level) is the best option. Obviously the single serving bowl is the appeal, being able to choose the veggies and meats and their quantities, personally I really liked seafood balls so I got a lot of that. I do wish that there were more options for mushrooms (like wood ear). I also liked that the service staff is very helpful in deciding the recommend taste you're feeling and keeping all the options refilled and clean, especially the sauce stations. The entire space though runs too humid and can be a little uncomfortable to stay for too long. Either way, amazing food and amazing service and the price is decent, so highly recommended spot! read more

Mala Town - Mild - Hot Pot Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Mala Town is a build your own hot pot restaurant. This has been on my to go to list for awhile now and finally had a chance to try it out Friday afternoon! Mala Town is located at Spring Mountain and South Jones Blvd inside a small plaza. There is decent amount of parking spaces available. When I went inside the restaurant, a team member had greeted me. I let her know it was my first time in Mala Town. She had walked me through the process of picking out the different ingredients, and then the bowl would be weighed at the end! There were so many different ingredients to build your own bowl at Mala Town! You could choose from Carrots, Spinach, Napa, Cabbage, Broccoli, Tofu, Lobster Ball, Garlic Beef, Spam, Garlic Chicken and so much more! I ended up building my bowl with the following ingredients Napa Cabbage Two kinds of mushrooms Konjac Noodles Spam Pork Belly Additional beefs (Brisket etc..) The bowl came out to be 1.75 lbs. and it cost approximately $32.00 for the bowl. The broth was a beef broth with mild spice. Afterwards, a number was provided to go to a specific table inside the restaurant. The entrée was provided shortly afterwards! There is a complimentary sauce stations where you can also get extra ingredients like green onions! The bowl was delicious! All of the ingredients were super yummy! The beef broth was flavorful! The price was expensive though. It's been awhile since I've gone to a build your own bowl, hot pot! Mala Town was a lot of fun and it was a good experience! read more

I had another pleasant experience today. Food was great and the interaction between Vicky and me was positive. I want to commend her here since she gave us a table that would get the most AC exposure. I asked her some nosy questions and she answered them with grace. Places like this can't really do anything extra so gestures like this really stand out. She made me want to tip more. We will definitely return. Now it's $15.99 per pound. I hate inflation. read more

I had heard so much about this place on TikTok, so I was really excited to try. I came in the evening and it wasn't super crowded. I love hot pot so this was fun to DIY and also try to figure out how much it was gonna weigh. My boyfriend and I both went with the spicy broth and it was spicy!!! I can't wait to come back. I love the sauce bar. Usually when places have DIY stuff, it can be a mess, but it was very clean and I also was really impressed with the service. The cashier was very personable and recommended the Wynter peach juice to us and it was so delicious. I also loved that they had Cold Jasmine tea, which was really refreshing and free. I can't wait to come back. read more

I tried the signature beef bone broth and it was really good. The broth had a deep, rich flavor with a great balance of spice and savoriness. The marbled beef and pork belly was juicy and tender, and the fresh vegetables like bok choy and mushrooms soaked up the broth nicely. The service was great too. The way that the restaraunt works is they give you a bowl and some tongs and you get to select anything you want from the bar area that was filled with many choices (i.e. seafoods, beef, pork, tofu, various vegetables, noodles, etc). They also have a sauce bar where you can build your own sauces for your hotpot. I'm definitely coming back to try out the other broths! read more

Love the assortment and how customizable the meals are here! We opted for the sichuan-style mao cai (top) and the savory dry mix (bottom). The sichuan bowl came as a soup base and had a delicious numbing spice to it, while the dry mix was more of a peanut sauce. We were told that the store is known for their sichuan and bone broth base (that we didnt try). Both were great and definitely satisfied our cravings! Everything is weighed here so just be careful that your eyes aren't hungrier than your stomach when placing items into your bowl! But if you do, it all tastes great reheated! read more

So there is a waitlist on Yelp--but for whatever reason, I am not sure what it is used for, to be honest. Because when we arrived, you literally walk in and the bowls to pick up your protein is right there. There wasn't much of a line, aside from the line that you're picking your toppings. We moved along like a conveyor belt, once we got done picking our toppings--from veggies to proteins, we got to the register and that's where you get to pick your broth. I chose the sweet and sour, while my fiancé chose the spicy one (he couldn't hang to finish the broth and his noodles, LOL). Once you chose your broth and paid for your bowl, based one weight. They gave you a table number to be seated at. Then few minutes later, they serve your bowl. It was very quick in and sit. I would say we took at least 5-10 mins for this process then got to enjoy our bowls. But they were very busy during dinner time which is the time we went. Very loud, very busy, very bright. Seems like their business is doing very well. I would recommend for anyone who wants to have control of their own hot pot--like what they can put inside and the choice of broth. read more

My niece and nephew took me to this place. It is pretty much a take what you want and choose a base soup and you pay by weight. They take it after payment and cook it for you. They delivered it to my table in a reasonable amount of time and it was delicious. Mine was filled with upon noodles, shabu shabu beef, mushrooms, leaks, tofu, cabbage, spam, as well as many other tasty ingredients. They also have a topping bar full of sauce, onion, garlic, and cilantro. I highly recommend a stop here for a delicious and mild or spicy bowl of noodles. read more

had a great first experience here!! grab a set of tongs and a bowl and you can get right to it customizing your dish. there was plenty of variety to choose from for veggies, noodles, meats, etc. I enjoyed the garlic beef the best out of the meat options, super flavorful. the cashier was super helpful and knowledgeable on explaining the different broths they had and the mild beef bone broth and the perfect amount of spice for someone who likes a flavorful spice but doesn't have a spice tolerance at all! ((you can add more spice through the sauces as well)) there was plenty of seating and some fun thoughtful touches around the store that added to the experience. a great place to grab a quality meal that you can customize almost exactly to your liking! read more

Great place for picky eaters! They can choose what they want!! Walked in and was immediately greeted and asked if we needed help. 1. Grab a bowl and a pair of thongs and then choose what you want. So many things to choose from veggies, noodles, tofu, seafood, meats. Something for everyone. 2. Choose your soup, the weigh it, then pay. 3. They let you know what table and you go create your own sauce at their sauce bar and self serve water or sweet tea. We really enjoyed our meal here and will come back. read more

Absolutely nothing to say about the service-- 10/10, exceptional!! The kind woman working the night we stopped in was extremely helpful and friendly! She guided us through all the steps of the process and was extremely cheerful and bubbly. The restaurant is large and clean. We didn't have to wait at all to get a seat. After we were seated, you can create your own sauce at the bar. They were out of green onions, which was a bummer, but we made it work. They also have complimentary tea, which was a nice touch! Our party shared the beef bone soup and dry pots. The flavor of the dishes was great! However, the beef was very tough, and I would've appreciated if they cut the napa cabbage into smaller pieces rather than just giving the entire leaf. I also felt like, with the amount we got, other places would have given a bit more soup. Overall a pretty good experience. I don't think there are tons of mala tang places like this in Vegas, so it's definitely a fun try. read more

It was our first time here, and we were warmly greeted by the staff at the front. He was very helpful in explaining how everything works. You start by grabbing tongs and choosing from a wide variety of vegetables, seafood, and meats. They then weigh your bowl, and you select your soup base. We went with the mild beef bone soup, and it came out quickly. The flavor was rich and delicious on its own... I didn't even feel the need to add anything from the sauce station. The staff was attentive and checked in on us throughout our meal, which made the experience even better. Overall, the food was so good. It is a little on the pricier side, but well worth it for the quality and experience. We'd definitely recommend it and look forward to coming back again! read more
