Cash or Zelle only. Should make it clear by posting a sign or something.
I suggest eating here if you really love napa cabbage and vermicelli. The house soup almost tastes like milk to me, since the broth is so white. The meat portion was decent and the quality was not bad.
The mala soup base was definitely more catered toward my taste, I wasn’t a fan of the house broth. They give an absurd amount of napa cabbage and noodle, but not much else. There was also no rice (prob since close to closing) and not much of a broth refill.

The newly upgraded space is bright, comfortable, and inviting. After hearing that the original owner has resumed management, I couldn't wait to give it another try. We arrived right at the first dinner seating at 6 PM on a particularly hot day-but thanks to the air-conditioning, it was perfectly comfortable.
I ordered the 0.5 spicy mala beef broth, and my mom had the non-spicy creamy broth. The mala broth was just as it should be-rich, flavorful, and full of that signature taste I've missed so much. It truly brought back the original, delicious experience.
We left completely stuffed and satisfied. I'm so happy this place is back to its old glory, and we'll definitely be returning for more hot pot soon!

Authentic flavor, everything is perfect, especially love the beef tendons, tripe, intestines and tofu with mala broth.
The place is newly renovated and looks much better than before.
Perfect for hotpot lovers! staff was friendly and helpful. Clean, lively vibe, and great for groups. Already planning my next visit! 🍲🔥

Wuji Mala Hotpot is seriously so good. The owner is incredibly kind and generous--it feels like you're being welcomed into someone's home.
The food is top quality: bouncy glass noodles, super tender beef, tofu soaked with flavor, soft tempura, sweet shrimp, and fresh, crunchy veggies. And the mala broth? Amazing. I recommend getting it on the side so you can control the spice level.
The place is newly renovated and looks great.
I was treated to this meal because my student is the owner's grandchild, but this review is totally genuine.

Recently renovated this is a classic hot pot location. The broth is very rich and worth tasting on its own. The spicy mala is always what I go for allowing you to customize your spice level. Other mala hot pot places rarely focus on the flavor of the broth where as Wuji has mastered a flavor that is addicting and spicy. Service was great and attentive . I highly recommend for spice lovers!

I saw on Google Maps that it was still open, so I drove for half an hour. But when I got there, it was closed. Bad review, bad review, bad review.

The service is very terrible. They accept Cash Only. No receipts after you pay the bill. No ‘thanks’ after you give them tips. Also, they will remind you that ‘the service fee has not included in the bill’.
I love Wu Ji’s! I’ve been coming here for 8+ years when I used to live in the city. Whenever I come back to the Bay Area I make a trip to come here ? I couldn’t find any mala pot like this anywhere, not in NYC, not in Taipei. (If anyone knows please let me know!) It’s special. I would recommend swap the normal beef with Wu Ji’s beef mala beef pot and go with spice level 3. I hope it stays in business forever.

We love the lamb mala hotpot here. My spice level is 4 or 5 cuz it’s not good if it’s not spicy. It’s definitely authentic and the portion is decent for me. We’ve been going here for about 10 years now and the taste is still the same.

First time eating there, and that was a great experience.The service was really nice, the server explained everything and recommended things from the menu.The concept of the place is simply Chinese hot pot with different ingredients, and you can also choose the level of spiciness.My husband really liked the fish cakes.Everything was fresh and delicious.I really recommend this place.
