    Sliced Beef and Tripe in Red Chili Oil
    Maria F.

    Do you love Mala? You'll love this place! Whenever we try a new restaurant we like to order a few items to share, so we decided on Beef tendon & tripe in spicy sauce (cold) BBQ boneless ribs, Sweet potato noodles with minced pork. Steamed Chicken in spicy Mala sauce (cold) Mala tofu and fish. Everything was amazing. We had a great time. If you want authentic Mala, this a great place!!We enjoyed the nice atmosphere, our server was very pleasant and patient with us. (We appreciate that as we peruse a new menu lol). Check them out!.

    General Tso's Chicken
    Peyton C.

    I've been searching for a good takeout place since I've been in Connecticut. I finally found one that deserves a shout out. The rice is phenomenal. Loaded with shrimp, it tastes freshly made. The fried rice from surrounding restaurants feels old as if it's been sitting forever. This is since if the best fried rice I've ever had. The General Tso's chicken is decent. Nothing groundbreaking but not bad. The dumplings were another hit. Not too spicy, the chili oil looks scary but in fact it's flavorful. I will definitely be retiring for more.

    Sautéed bok choy
    Debrin S.

    Typically strip mall restaurant dining is not my thing. But, there is something about a spot that stands the test of time, And this is an excellent example of that. Like the name, they specialize in regional Szechuan cuisine. So NOT typical Americanized Chinese. Four stars for the food, literally all of it was delicious. Started with vegetable spring rolls, crunchy, with the typical dipping sauce. Wonton egg drop soup was excellent with miniature wontons. The sautéed bok choy is loaded with garlic, I detected mustard powder, toasted sesame oil. It was so good we ordered a dish to go. And the fillet a flounder with dry spices like cumin sautéed Red and green bell peppers, onions, ginger, and bamboo shoots was tender and flavorful. My favorite was the CHONGQING chicken (La Zi Ji) perfectly fried tender pieces of chicken sauté with bits of peanuts, garlic, scallion, Szechuan, peppercorns, and Szechuan chili peppers, and toasted sesame seeds. It was exceptional. Server was very familiar with the menu, the preparation, ingredients, and was able to make solid suggestions. Everything was served accurately and hot. Unfortunately, the interior really requires some updating. It's rather rundown, shabby, and dated, as well as needing a very good scrubbing. Seating was pretty comfortable.

    Shrimp Dumplings
    Sammi M.

    My husband and I ordered takeout from here on a Saturday night after hearing how great their Sichuan food is. It was nice to find this restaurant since not many places nearby have the mala pot and mapo tofu options you can find here. We ordered an app of steamed shrimp dumplings, the dry pot with beef and a spicy beef bowl. The beef dishes both came with rice and the dumplings with a sauce. The food was great! Spicy but in a good way and had plenty of vegetables along with the meat. I will say that it is a bit pricey, but you get high quality food. Overall definitely recommend stopping in and trying out some of their specialties!

    Accommodate food allergies (gluten) very well! Yummy and big portion sizes - enough for leftovers!read more

    I'm back! The restaurant is located at 415 Hartford Tpke, Vernon, CT. It's been about four months…read moresince I was here. This is a family run, laid back place. The music is Classical Japanese. For our first drink. We are having a French Martini made with Grey Goose vodka, Chambord and a splash of pineapple juice. This taste great! They don't use garnishes here and I don't really care. It's well balanced! For our first item, we're having the House Salad. This is made with iceberg lettuce snd a little tomato. This ginger dressing is the best! I love this stuff! For out next item, we ate having an "Oki salad." A traditional Samurai Salad is a Japanese-inspired dish featuring grilled firm tofu, mixed greens, and a pungent ginger dressing. Key ingredients include firm tofu, soy sauce, white wine vinegar, grated fresh ginger, sesame seeds, green onions, and tomato slices. It is often garnished with toasted sesame seeds and served with a soy-ginger vinaigrette. Well, whatever it is! It's quite good! Wow! For our next item, we are having the miso soup. Miso soup is a traditional Japanese staple, combining savory, umami-rich miso paste with a dashi (fish or kelp) broth, typically featuring tofu, seaweed (wakame), and green onions. It is simple to make in under 20 minutes, offering a nutritious, comforting side dish known for aiding digestion, high protein, and mineral content. This is nice and hot! Huge bowl too! For our next item, we are having edamame. Edamame is an East Asian dish prepared with immature soybeans in their pods, which are boiled or steamed, and may be served with salt or other condiments. It is consumed in many world regions. Edamame is a common side dish in Chinese cuisine, Japanese cuisine and as an appetizer to alcoholic beverages, such as beer or shōchū. As an ingredient, edamame is used in both sweet and savory dishes, such as takikomi gohan, tempura, and zunda-mochi. These are steaming hot! Nice and salty too! Well, put comes the complementary Tuna Tataki. This thinly sliced seared tuna with ponzu sauce. This is fantastic! Wow! For our next item, we are having the Blackened Salmon which is sliced with ponzu sauce. This is spicy! Add soy sauce! This is great! For our next drink, we are having a Melon ball made with Midori vodka and orange juice. This is well balanced! No garnish as normal here! It tastes great! For our next item, we are having Ikura. Red caviar, also known as salmon roe or ikura caviar, is a popular seafood delicacy that comes from salmon and trout roe. It's known for its bright orange color, medium-sized eggs, and thin shells. Red caviar is a staple of Russian cuisine, often eaten during holidays like New Year's. It's high in omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, and is considered a good source of nutrition. Different types of salmon roe have unique tastes, colors, textures, and sizes. A "taste of the ocean." What's better than that! For our next item, I'm having the Spicy Eel and Shrimp Hand Roll. A hand roll (temaki) is a cone-shaped sushi item featuring seasoned sushi rice, fillings (sashimi-grade fish, seafood, vegetables), and a crisp, toasted nori sheet wrapper. Assembled by hand and eaten immediately by hand (without chopsticks), it offers a customizable, crunchy, and easier-to-make alternative to traditional maki sushi. These are good! Sushi snow cones! For our last drink, we are having the Caribbean Joy. This is made with Bacardi rum, pineapple and lemon juice. This is good! It's the rum version of the last drink! It's quite good! For our entree, we are having the Volcano Roll made with peppery salmon, gently fried, spicy tuna and red/hot sauce. Look at the presentation! OMG! For dessert, I have no idea what's coming out! Oh yeah! This is the bomb! OMG! The surprise of the night! Tempura ice cream! What better than this!!!!

    Decent food. Prices good. Service was very good. Tea with our meal - replenished and hot when we…read morewanted it Ambiance needs some work though. We had a table of 8, so it was a fun time. However, just looking around the restaurant, felt a little blah, depressing. Looked like they had a nice takeout business going, so I'd try that in the future.

    This was THE Chinese restaurant in the area back in the day. I just saw my review from 8 years ago…read moreand this is my first time back since! Well....they haven't updated the inside at all and it looks worn and tired. Gone are the laminated menus and the paper "takeout" menus are on the tables. We came at 4:00 and there was just one other party eating. The service was fast since it was empty. One of our servers spoke no English at all I thought that was funny because we complimented her on their wide crispy noodles (THE best around) abd she thought I was complaining so called someone else over. :) We absolutely love their noodles and dipping them in mustard or duck sauce. We ordered egg drop soup and egg roll. Both good! Next we had a sizzling beef & shrimp dish poured onto the sizzling plate in front of us. Neat. The beef was breaded which surprised us. The dish was good with lots of the brown oyster sauce so good over rice. We ordered house lo mein, but got shrimp lo mein instead. Lots of shrimp and good size but we had shrimp in our other dish so it was repetitive and we were looking forward to house. We told them but got a blank state. All good. We didn't eat much of the Lo Mein. There was a wasp buzzing around our table abd head the entire meal. Made it a tad uncomfortable. Finally it landed on the window next to our table abd I killed it with my linen napkin. Finally we could eat in place but awkward. The food was ok with the soup and noodles my fav. The service was very good but the place is dumpy inside abd that wasp ruined. Still, decent Chinese food so 3 stars it is!
