Came here on a date for the first time, we loved the food! Definitely coming back with the family next time. Food quality is flavorful! We also got some spicy chicken. Highly recommend!

Amazing food and ambience! I had the three pepper beaten duck; the Sichuan pepper flavor was super rich, and the meat was perfectly flavored. We had sweet and sour wontons and red chili oil dumplings, and both were great! Will definitely be back soon.

Mala Sichuan is a true hidden gem. Every time I eat here, I’m reminded why I keep coming back — the flavors are bold, addictive, and deeply authentic. The spices are used not just for heat but to build layers of flavor that are hard to find outside of China. The vibe is relaxed but stylish, and the staff is always welcoming and quick to help. Whether I’m dining in with friends or grabbing takeout, the experience is consistently excellent.

We highly recommend this place. We come here 2-3 times a week for many years. The food is authentic and very fresh, and quick too. The sichuan mala spice is on point and it doesn’t leave you feeling too heavy either. We love the service too from our usual waitress who is working today as well.

Very kind and informative customer service. I had the sour and spicy wontons which were awesome as well as the eggplant with string beans. Food was very quick and so tasty. In the mall they are unsigned but in the tall black building towards the middle of the complex. Will definitely come again!
