Was violently craving dry hot pot. Came here on a Thursday night around 8pm and there was a lot of tables available. We picked our own veggies and meat and drinks as well as a side of fried buns. Food came out very quick and was delicious. Cravings satisfied

This is my favorite dry pot spot. I always come out sweaty, full and tongue numb (in a good way). One thing is price is based on weight so don't load up on carbs they will give you a rice with your order.

Have been there so many times, and it has always been my #1 spicy dry pot place! Very friendly staff and phenomenal consistent taste! Will continue to visit and recommend this place to anyone who loves spicy food!

Hands down my favorite place that serves spicy mala dry pot Mala Xiang Guo. Aside from their menu, you are shown to the raw ingredient buffet to fill up your bowl with vegetables, meats, and noodles. Then you go to the counter where they will weight your bowl and ask your spice level. All food is paid at the end of the meal in case you need to buy additional drinks or menu items. The staff are always incredibly attentive and courteous. For such a small restaurant, it's a simple seat yourself that is all about the food and not flashy decor. Must try!

This is one of our favorite takeout places. We only get the dry hotpot and nothing else ever. Prices have been slowly creeping up though. Service is always prompt and friendly. It's serviceable for dining in but is more casual. More of a quick dining spot than somewhere you would go with friends for a long dinner. Almost everything for dry hotpot is great but I wish their beef slices are less fatty, they have more options for balls and that they have better rice (their rice is always slightly mushy). This hits the spot and should satisfy most people's MLXG cravings.

Great spot in NJ where you can build your own hotpot. Their service was not bad - they give you bottle water instead of tap water. And the restaurant interior was not too special (it's not like fancy restaurant). They have two options: hot pot & dry hot pot. It has the right spice level and fresh ingredient (you can pick your own ingredients & spicy level). Meats and veggies mixed with a perfection - not too sweet, not too spicy. BUT, I think the spicy level is different everyday. I usually order medium-level spicy, and sometimes it was really spicy and sometimes it was okay. I also ordered some skewers which I didn't really satisfied. The beef was little tough, and the Chinese spices were little strong for me. I wouldn't order skewers next time.

A little place where you can build your own mala/sichuan pot. The ambiance was casual. There's a refrigerator section where you grab a bowl and tongs to add ingredients to your pot. They had green veggies, mushrooms, chicken, fish, noodles, beef, lamb, beef balls, and fish balls. Since it's $15/lb, I wish there was a scale there so that we could be mindful of how much we might be paying. I like the idea of a self serve station, but at the same time, there's a lot of cross contamination since there isn't one tong for each ingredient. I chose to get a dry pot with tiny spicy level. If you can't handle spice, then do not go here because even tiny was pretty spicy. I wasn't dying and was still able to enjoy the food, but I definitely still needed a beverage to cool down. The coconut drink I grabbed was milky and sweet and cost around $3. They didn't offer us water for the table but I'm assuming the bottled water was free. My dry pot came with white rice, but I think if you get the hotpot, you don't get rice. The food was good, but I wasn't amazed by it. I would rather just go to spice 24 for the convenience. But if your in the area and craving sichuan food, I would recommend this place.
