    Met up with some friends for dinner at Yin Tang in Carrollton. This is another popular Chinese malatang spot in the city. When we sat at our table, nobody came up and addressed us at first. We just walked up to the front where the self serve soup toppings were. You first get a bowl and put in whatever veggies, meat, and various toppings you would like. They have much less options than yonny, I just kept it simple here and basically got a bunch of meat. They also have more limited soup base options here, with an option of original, tom yum, tomato, or spicy dry mix. I decided to get the original spicy broth. After they take the bowl to cook, I checked out the sauce bar. It's pretty limited, and I made my sauce way too vinegary. After getting my soup, I had to add a little salt to it as I thought it was a little bland but it was much better after that. The lobster salad ball was my favorite topping, I did not expect such an explosion of flavor when I bit into it. It was lowkgenuinely life changing, everything else was good in general

    This is one of my go to places because you can choose all your favorite hotpot ingredients and pay for what you choose. They have a good selection of items and the broth is delicious. You can choose whether you want it in a soup or "dry". You can also select your spice level. Once it's cooked, they'll bring it to your table. There's also a small sauce bar area as well, but the food is already flavorful enough. It's not too big of a space, so sometimes there might be a little bit of a weight. This is kind of random, but their door is sooooo heavy to open. There's plenty of parking in the parking lot of the plaza.

    Great food! I know there are some differences btwn the places but they're minor enough for me to compare. I prefer it here over malatang (the one nearby), the food is better and it was cheaper too). Service was decent, nothing crazy nor expected, but the food was good. I can't really eat spicy so i got spice level 2 and it was perfect. Would come again

    This was my first time visiting this restaurant, and it was such a wonderful experience. The soup was absolutely delicious, and the variety of food options was impressive. I can't wait to return again!

    First time trying this spot and am already waiting until I'm in the area again to come back. They had a plethora of options to include in your bowl and everything seemed very fresh and clean. I got the broth medium spicy and it was the perfect amount of lingering spice to elevate the dish without overpowering it. There was a waitlist when we went on a Saturday night but were able to sit indoors until our table was ready. I loved the egg noodles, imitation crab, broccoli, enoki mushrooms, potatoes, and much more. I would definitely recommend coming here especially on a cold night!

    Good broth flavor here, although it's a little bit salty. It's one of those places that's nice to go when you're craving a bowl of hot pot but don't want to go out and get all the ingredients yourself. You pick your ingredients, bring them up to be weighed 14.95/lb and they give you a tag number. Then they bring the bowl to your table. I also noticed that a lot of couples share one bowl, so you don't have to order individual bowls.

    The portion sizes here are MASSIVE and you can choose what broth you want your food in. I got the mild spicy mala and wish I went with a spicier option--there was not much heat to it. There's a large variety of items to choose from which is very nice. The only downside I would say is that for the dry pot option it tastes like they just boil the food and mix in a little bit of peanut sauce.

    I mean what more do you need ? Great prices, kind service, the food is cooked after you pick everything out and it tastes delicious. The bowls are huge though, i could barely finish it it's kinda quiet in there but it's comfy

    I got the medium spice original hotpot soup. The soup is really good. I also liked that I could add my own toppings. I add a variety of noodles, veggies, and meats. The price is fair too.

    I've been in twice now and think it's pretty good. You get to customize your bowl with ingredients and either pick your soup base or opt for stir-fried. Ingredients are plenty including various veggies, noodles, seafood, and meats. There's also a little sauce bar that's included as well. They charge you by the weight of your bowl, and you pay at the end of your meal. I came in this last time for the new tom yum soup base, because if there's tom yum soup then I'm there. Alas, it was just ok. The soup has one level of spice which was just below a medium to me. The first aroma I got was coconut and gave me curry vibes. As for the taste, there was a hint of lemongrass, but I was missing the strong sour and spicy notes. I would just stick to the original spicy soup base. It's pretty solid. I usually prefer hot pot cooked at the table because I like my soup scalding hot but this is a nice alternative.

    An establishment I would highly recommend should you desire to satiate your hotpot fix 5/5 Food, high quality ingredients you can select to add into your soup, broth comes thereafter, original signature broth remains my favorite. Can select spice level as well. Small sauce bar but the essential options are there 5/5 Service, of all the times I have went, soup comes out at a timely manner and servers were sweet and attentive. 3/5 Ambiance, standard establishment, clean, nothing too flashy. Ample seating. Go to spot for quality and affordable hotpot. Not AYCE, pay by pound.

    YORM AND SCRUM! Love you Carolton eats! Sat next to a table of Korean actors. Soup filled our stummies, convo nurtured our spirit, substance of convo spurred about a want for actionable change in the world. Yay!

    You can get your dish stir-fried or as a soup - we went with the soup based on the staff's recommendation. I tried the tomato soup, but the broth just tasted like straight tomato, which wasn't great. If you're vegetarian or don't eat beef, this might not be the best spot. But my friends had the beef broth and said it was super flavorful and savory, so I'd recommend that if you can have it. For the price, we got a lot of food and left really satisfied. There's a good variety of items to choose from, including plenty of veggies. If the tomato broth had been better, I would've enjoyed the experience a lot more and definitely come back. The service was friendly and quick, and everything was neat and organized. If it's your first time trying hot pot or malatang, the staff is happy to explain how it works, which made the experience even better.

    For the $12.99 per lbs, is the weight of the bowl included or it's subtracted from the gross weight?

    I was in town visiting some family and wanted to stop by this new spot in Plano since it was open…read morefor late nights during the Thanksgiving weekend. The hours are great for late night drinks and dinner, and service was very attentive and recommended some great bar food choices! Highly recommend the popcorn chicken, it was made with dark meat and had an extra crunch packed full of flavor. The ambiance was vintage and lux, perfect for a date night with some Vietnamese tunes that definitely sets the mood!

    Food and service was good, but I wish they had their own yelp page instead of keeping the old one…read more Their old store was called Mei Wei and it was in Carrollton. They had bento boxes and dessert similar to Meet Fresh, and it was more of a casual, hang out spot. This new store is next to Ztao and they are more of a sit in restaurant. Their menu was short and when I asked if they had bento boxes, the waitress didn't really understand my question. Their menu consisted of.. 1. Main Entree $14.99 that came with rice, noodles, or congee 2. Soup $3.99 three options 3. Sides $4.99 several options No dessert menu, only a little stand on the table with taro pudding that costed $8.95. We ordered their braised pork chop, daikon meatball soup, and pig ears. Like I mentioned, food was good, but nothing special. You can only order the side and soup if you order one of the main entrees. This new store is nothing like their old store, just fyi.
