Malubianbian

Okay, my honest opinion about this place is purely about how my experience was. I got here on a Sunday night. It was not bad of a wait: about 15 minutes. I went with a friend who went before and helped me out in choosing which broth to get and what to do. We got the spicy szechuan and tomato broth; both were delicious. Grabbing the ingredients for the hotpot from the fridge weren't a big deal and it was a neat idea. It's very different from other places for sure. There were plenty of selections that were good enough; you got your noodles, veggies, and meat. Some items weren't quite fresh but I know they do their best to switch it out. The skewered ones were cute and easy to cook in the broth; you just stick it in and take it out once it was done. Luckily, they have a disposal bucket for the sticks. I would go back here again to try out the other broths. It's a nice place to go with friends but not too big of a crowd.

The very first restaurant that we tried in China town! Food was great, fun experience. Great deal for all you can eat. The waiting time was extremely long! Had to wait an hour to be seated. But the staffs were very friendly.

Everything was PERFECT! So so good. The music, cute decor, the lights outside, I felt like I was in a little village. I love the little baskets for the ingredients in as well. The broth tasted soooo good and all the veggies, meat, and other ingredients tasted super fresh and high quality!! I couldn't stop eating. 100/10 would come again.

The food and service are awesome! The price is affordable with the huge selection of foods (vegetables/meat/ seafood). The girl in the front is super nice :) I recommend coming before 7 because it is crowded, may expect waiting time if you come after 7 in the weekend. But overall, I have a really good experience here!

It's hot pot season again. MaLuBianBian is a great China style hot pot. They decorate the restaurant like you're eating on the streets somewhere in China. The price for the all you can eat is good. The spicy pot is definitely spicy. I also like the meats are all skewered. You get a basket on the side to help you carry all the food you ant for your pot.
