Food w as good because it tasted it nice and the place is close so it was very nice to go eat and delicious

This locations in a shopping plaza with a lot Asian restaurants. This location does specialize in sichuan cuisine but they have non spicy options if you're with people who can't tolerate spice well. For appetizers we got the oyster omelette and black pepper wings they were both okay. My entire party did the create your own stir fry or soup. It's recommended for one person you should choose 5 items as that's the minimum and it's definitely more than enough as everyone had leftovers. I thought the dishes were okay, I got mild but definitely could've done medium spice. I'm not sure if it's because I got the low sodium option but I feel like the flavors weren't popping as it should for sichuan dishes. I would recommend Chu Shang Spicy in Philadelphia over this as they also do create your own sichuan dishes and the flavors are a lot better. The service was good, the workers can also speak Chinese so people are able to ask questions in their preferred language. I would rate this a 3.5/5 overall mainly because the there are so many options in that shopping plaza. I really like Hot Space and Tofu House as an affordable option. read more

Food is tasty; service was great. BYOB - made this our regular spot. Definitely recommend

Food: Not bad. Ordered from the menu and the create your own. You have to order a minimum of 5 items and it's about 4 to 5 dollars per item (rounding up) so it's about 20 dollars a dish. I recommend sharing with someone. It's large. Ambience: Dark but clean Service: It wasn't busy so service was fast. We had a party of 6 and the gratuity was automatically added. Not cheap. We will not be back. read more

Spice 24 - Create Your Own Stir-Fry. This is the soup in the create your own - Chinese Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

This place is really good, very fresh, great portions. The service is OK, creating ur own noodles cost about $15-$20 dollars a bowl but trust it is two servings, but it can definitely be pricey. You can get individual servings, a serving that serves 2-4 people and than an even bigger one. The bowls get larger as the serving size gets bigger. The ones I posted are individual size and you have to get a minimum of 5 toppings which cost 3.50 for veggies and extra and then 4.50 for protein so you can see it can really add up. It's upsetting to see something like bean sprouts can cost 3.50 but you do get what you pay for. It's definitely a spot you want to check out! You can obviously pick your spice level. The black pepper sauce was pretty spicy I picked mild- the steel bowls keep it hot so it was hot temp wise and hot taste wise so I was tearing up between that combo. The Asian sauce said (sweet and savory) or something like that but it's really a great flavor it's not sweet in my opinion. We love adding corn cause it's small corn on the cob! Check it out and check in for 5% off on Yelp! read more

I love spice 24, the flavor is perfect. The popcorn chicken is crispy and perfect with the spicy dry pot. I like to add lotus roots, mushrooms, fish tofu, tofu skin, glass noodles and both lamb and beef. The price is definitely more expensive compared to the average price for dry pot but spice 24 is definitely worth it. read more

The mala dry pot is really good here! You get to choose the ingredients you want in it by checking it off on a list, and the minimum number of items for one person is 5. I prefer being able to get the ingredients myself though, but the portion size is not bad. I came here on a Saturday evening and there wasn't a wait. However, since this is located in the hmart plaza, parking is terrible so make sure you account for that! read more

Excellent service and food was delicious. Special shout out to the staff and Lei for the delicious food. I highly recommend.

If you're a fan of mala, spice 24 is the place to go! I've been here several times and I always get the mala dry pot and leaves a nice numbing feeling on your tongue. It's super easy to order if you want to customize your dish and I've never had trouble getting seated right away. You also get a small discount if you pay in cash. I find that the portion size is pretty big and I always have leftovers to bring home! read more

Spice 24 - Create Your Own Stir-Fry - Chinese Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

Their new renovation is so beautiful omg. I have been coming to this restaurant for a few years now, once in a while, but their food has always been amazing. It's a big pot of stir fry that you choose and share with your family/friends. I recommend going with max 4 people to share with just bc it's enough food that'll get you full. Sharing it with only two people can get a bit pricey since you pick every item you want and then pay a set amount for each item. But overall, it's worth what you get, you can take leftovers home and the staff is so nice and attentive. I never had any issues. read more

It was my idea to come to spice 24, when we were belaboring dinner choices and found our way to the HMart plaza. My rationale for trying here was we've never been here before, which always gives me an opportunity to write another Yelp review. The inside was nice enough, we were seated behind the door to the left in the window booth. At first I thought it was a pretty nice spot, until people started coming into and out of the restaurant which when the door slammed the booth shook. If you come here do not sit in this booth if you can help it. It was pretty annoying. Second was ordering the food, there was a miscommunication with the waiter and the order has got a little screwed up. Now luckily we caught it before they made the food and were able to have them fix it but my wife and the waiter seemed a little disgruntled at each other. The reason why is the menu says a minimum number of things you must order and gives a number of people. When we originally checked we understood that to mean a minimum number of items for the table however It was a minimum number of items per dish per people sharing the dish. Which was confusing. And difficult to rectify once we had both made our choices that were very different from each other and then told to be in one dish and having to basically have someone not it what they wanted. This could have been solved by a better explanation when we sat down. On off you try this place when you sit down ask them to explain the menu thoroughly while I don't know if we would come back because of our experience, the food was decent, but pricey and then an area with a lot of good food choices I don't know if I would choose to come here again. read more

The food here is good -- really customizable and fresh when it comes to stir frying super fresh veggies and other goodies like noodles and proteins but the service is awful. Unfriendly, mute, and don't bother to ever acknowledge you when delivering your food to the table or responding when you say thank you. Be sure to ask for everything up front before chowing down on your food given they tend to disappear after your order is placed. Food can get pricey depending on the amount of ingredients you choose to mix together. Come here with the knowledge that the wait staff will be moody and awkwardly quiet but if you just want to take out or are craving Szechaun style dishes, the food is pretty decent. read more

I've been on a mala dry pot kick for the past few years and have had difficulty finding spots in New Jersey that get it right. I was in the Edison area so decided to check out Spice 24. It was pretty straight forward with ordering, I was given a sheet for stir fry with all the options. I got a bunch of veggies and tofu at a spice level of hot and requested spicy even after. All in all I was impressed, the spice was great, the veggies were crisp, and definitely had the authentic mala flavor. I would highly recommend for anyone that's looking for a great dry pot mala experience. Definitely will be coming back. All Covid protocol was taken to make a safe dining experience. read more

Best ma la in Central Jersey! I've been coming here for almost ten years and no other place comes close to how good Spice 24 is.

Came in on a Saturday night around 7:15pm. The place was kind of busy but got very packed by 8:00pm. We got seated right away. You get to pick the ingredients yourself, marking the paper menu. One person need to pick at least 5 items and two people can pick 8. I shared with my friend and we got two meat and six non meat options. Also got it mala and hot. It was pretty spicy. Complimentary rice which was nice. It was a good spot to stop by on the home to Jersey City from the Jersey shore beach. Tip: check in on Yelp and write a review to receive 5% off your bill. read more

Much improved from my previous visit. We were looking for an outdoor dining experience and they were willing to bring out a table and chairs from inside for us. The hotpot we chose consisted of mushrooms, bok choy, tomatoes, beef tripe, potato, rice cake, wide noodles（宽粉 and squid. We chose the spicy ma la broth with a less greasy option. We also ordered a beef noodle soup to share. The meal was delicious, especially in the cold weather having everything piping hot and spicy really hit the spot. read more

Really love spice 24 - this is the go to place with friends and family for amazing dry pot! When are they open again after their upgrades?

Spice 24 is a family style restaurant where you can choose which dishes and items suit your party's taste. We ordered the soft shell crab as an appetizer which was a bit salty but overall really good! A surprising twist on the plate--pringles! Who would have thought that Pringles would find themselves with soft shell crab? It was actually a tasty combination and really transformed the taste of the pringle. We ordered a mala stir fry and a tomato soup dish. We liked everything we ordered although maybe next time we would order it a little more spicy. I would recommend Spice 24! It's a place you should try, especially when you're craving mala and have a large group with you. read more

Its my 2nd time coming here. The first time I just tried the pork belly over rice and it was great. We went here the 2nd time for my sister's bday. They dont do anything special for bdays. When I checked in through yelp I got a 5% off entire order and then waitress was denying it and said its only for online order when it specifically said check-in for dine in. Finally she went to someone else and asked about it and we got the 5% off. They do 10% off if you paid in cash. I ordered the braised pork over rice, curry cutlet over rice, and create your own stirfry. I had asked for a to go box and the lady that gave me the container was rude about it. The pork belly was very fatty more fat than meat and I saved this for my lunch the next day and saw a piece of an onion skin on the food. The corn that came with my stir fry was soo tiny it was only half of corn cob and cut into tiny pieces it cost $3.75 for that ingredient it was so expensive. I didnt get why the qual eggs were also part of the protein for $4.75 it should be on the sides. Create your own is definitely pricey. The broccoli side of katsu curry looked raw idk it looked like its just thrown there as a side. read more

Decided to stop in here after walking by a couple of times. The food here is amazing, the staff is friendly, the tea and smoothie were delicious. Everything came out so quickly and really blew us away with how good it was. The customizable options made this a great option for even picky eaters. The restaurant is very clean and cozy. We will definitely be coming back here! read more

Atmosphere: 5 The restaurant is much bigger inside than it looks from the outside. I love being able to customize my meal by choosing the ingredients I want in it. The restaurant smells so good inside too. Portions: 5 Maybe because I tend to add a lot of ingredients, my meal always end up in a large portion. I'm glad they don't just give a couple pieces of each ingredient to keep the dish size small. So the more ingredients you have, the more you'll have at the end. Flavors: 5 The flavors are complex and delicious. I usually choose the ma la soup at the medium spicy level and it always comes out exactly as I imagine. The ingredients are cooked well and incorporates the flavors of the soup. Overall, I highly recommend this place. I go there often and during the pandemic, I was still able to order at the restaurant for take out. Actually, ordering for take out somehow allows me to split the meal into 4. Restaurant food is generally a little salty for me so I would water down the soup a little and add some more veggies at home. The ingredients can add up the price, but when I am able to split it into 4 meals, it's worth it! read more

Best food ever!! Literally my go to spot lol all my friends love it too Price is reasonable too read more

In my bowl I got pork belly, lamb, squid, shrimp, enoki mushroom, vermicelli, rice cake and cauliflower. I chose mild spicy but it tasted more like medium spicy. Since you choose each item that goes into your dry hotpot, its pretty hard to not like your food. Everything I had was cooked perfectly and had amazing flavor. There was however way too much oil. Halfway through my food, everything was covered in the oil. Since the last time I came, prices have shot up a lot. I paid 55 for both dry hotpots and feel like it isn't worth it anymore. read more

Unique customizable noodle bowls! You can do dry or wet with varying degrees of spiciness. Though be warned, the spicy gets VERY SPICY. There's really something for everyone, take a look at the menu to see more details. Only reason why I'm taking off a star is because I got kung fu tea immediately before coming in, expecting to use it to cut the spiciness. However, after I got in the confiscated my bubble tea for the meal saying they didn't allow outside drinks. My tongue was burning. Quite sad. read more

This place truly lives up to its name! Nothing is more annoying than getting something "spicy" and it's just a little kick, but you will be sweating from the heat here. If you are not a fan of spice at all, I recommend getting "Not Spicy," as you may find that even mild is a little much. Service is fast and attentive, which is good because you'll want your water refilled constantly to deal with the spice. I usually order the make your own stir fry, which always has a decent portion size. If you're unable to finish it, you can bring it home and eat it the next day! Since all proteins are the same price, I would get certain ones over the other due to how much you actually get. For example, crab sticks are more like shredded crab, so it doesn't feel like you get much for $3.85. My favorite protein so far is the fish ball with pork, which is very juicy inside. I personally don't like getting the jumbo shrimp since you have to peel it, and I don't like using my hands unless it's a seafood boil and I have gloves. Other than that, the proteins and veggies in general are tasty. I enjoy the flavor of the Asian Fusion (Sweet Spicy) and Ma La (Numbing Spicy) sauces. I feel like both are very oily, however. I have a good spice tolerance and the "Hot" spice level is perfect with Asian Fusion, so you get the numb sensation without dying. The stir-fry comes with white rice, so that can definitely help ease the heat. If you are particularly hungry, you can also order noodles. I was able to finish both the noodles and rice when I was PMSing, but usually if I order both I'd have to take the rest home lol. For toppings, I like to get cilantro and scallions for the bit of tang, and they're free so why not. I will definitely come back with my family so that I can share the side dishes and appetizers with someone. I'd also like to try more combos of proteins, veggies, and noodles. The food can be pricey, especially if you do not have cash as the credit card minimum is $20, but it could be worth it depending on which elements you get. I highly recommend Spice 24 for fanatics of spice or Asian food in general! read more

Mala pot was very expensive and not that worth it. I ordered fish tofu inside the dish and literally only found TWO pieces for 4.5. Also ordered the "dry pot fish fillet" and that was basically inedible. Super fishy, weirdly chewy, and had this weird stench....when we asked the manager about it and she was SUPER defensive saying the fish was crunchy because "it depends on what the fish eat". She basically lectured me about why the fish was crunchy... she eventually took it away but overall very meh experience and will probably not come back womp womp read more

I don't know why it took so long for me to try this place! Recently I noticed Spice24 on UberEats and there was a free delivery promo, so I gave them a shot. I ordered braised pork belly bowl over rice. It came with bok choy, and a tea egg. It was delicious! That day, I also ordered a build your own stir fry: fish ball with pork, Asian fusion spice, clear noodles with black mushroom. It was sooo good! Although I didn't love the fish balls the pork was so flavourful and went well with the noodles! It was so good, the next time I was at work, I ordered another build your own stir fry. There is a variety of flavors or broths to choose from, like Ma-la, ginger and scallion, black pepper, etc. Next, you choose the spice level, then protein and veggie, and finally type of noodle. There are so many choices and it's too lengthy to list in this review, but from my limited experience, they were fresh. This time, I ordered asian fusion spice, pork belly, sugar snap peas, and udon noodles. I was highly satisfied to say the least. To quell my sweet cravings I tried the fried mini buns with condensed milk (to dip). It was good too. Being delivery, obviously I couldn't get much of what's offered at the restaurant. They also offer seafood boil, hot pot, soup pots, and dry pots. I got so excited, I'm trying to get my wife to go there for a sit down lunch. I can't wait to go! read more

Went there with a friend, and I've been there two previous times. I had no problems before, but today was awful. My friend and I place our orders for stirfry, and she orders glass noodles while I ask for udon. When our meals arrive, she had no noodles and my dish had both glass and udon. We tell the servers our orders were wrong and ask for them to be fixed. They give her the glass noodles and they tell me my meal was free of charge. The restaurant was empty aside from 2 other patrons. After we eat and ask for the checks, they charge me for the rest of my meal. I asked for clarification, and they tell me the glass noodles that I didn't ask for was free of charge, not my entire meal. The waitress had a terrible attitude and as I signed the receipt, she said "What, no tip?" I told her "no", because I wasn't going to pay for such poor service. My friend tipped 18%. At least the food was good enough, but I will not be coming back. Very disappointed. read more

I came to Spice 24 with my sister as she had been telling me how amazing this place is. When you are seated, you are given a menu sheet and a pen. You can indicate the sauce, spice level, and toppings you want. Each topping comes with a separate charge. Personally, I feel that having five toppings is more than enough! I chose sausage, wood ear, chicken, fish, and some other veggies. Super delicious and will definitely come back when I am near the area! read more

I went here with my friend for my birthday dinner on March 11th. It wasn't planned or anything. We just happened to be looking for a place to eat nearby and randomly selected this one. We didn't know what to expect when we first went in, but when we sat down the service was quick and the staff was very friendly. I can honestly say that the stir fry noodles I ordered were some of the best I ever had! My friend and I also shared an order of their fried mini buns with sweetened condensed milk and they were delicious! The teas we ordered were very good too. I will definitely be back again. read more

My best friend and I spontaneously decided to embark on a Monday evening trip to H Mart. After our adventure, we were hungry and she recommended Spice 24. Once we were seated we received menus on which we filled out our order. I ordered my meal with medium heat & sweet + spicy, with fried tofu, udon noodles, bok choy, broccoli, and snap peas. The fried tofu was chewy and it was a good alternative to meat and everything was cooked perfectly. The sauce was also delicious and had a kick! Each addition is about $3 so I kept it simple and I'm glad I did- it was more than enough food and it was so delicious. I ate all my food (probably against my better judgment) and my friend took half hers home. My friend ordered hers with ma la (numbing spicy) and mild heat per recommendation. Honestly hers didn't taste spicy at all compared to mine but it was very good nonetheless - we were kind of confused when ordering but figured the ma la was more of the flavor than the spice level. On the other hand mine had a lot of chili - they did not play and I'm here for it!! We also ordered boba milk tea (I got lavender and she got Thai tea) and both were so good. They came in very tall cups with so much chewy boba! I was shocked at how generous they are. I would come here just for the milk tea. While I'm not a fan of the unflattering dim lighting, it's a casual and intimate place to share a meal. I'm excited to come back, and a drink would make it even better! read more

My son and I came in to order for taking out. After the food done and handed it to us, I asked the waiter if I can have menu to bring home;for somewhat the waiter turned his back to leave, flagged his hand to the stack of menus from the booth. The waiter's body language, in my personal view, was not classy friendly to hand it over to the customer. I must make steps to the booth; he was there when I asked, and he just left since there were only 2 or 3 sit in customers? I felt annoying to walk out. If this place is like the other common low class places , I don't expect any well behave from servers. But with nice decorations, good structures, I have high expectations from waiters. Like some other reviews, The price is bit expensive. read more
