Szechuan hot pot is a different style of cooking from conventional Chinese restaurants in the U.S. ... much spicier, but still flavorful. Attentive service without being overbearing.
July 2026
One of the best restaurants in Arlington hands down. Unique menu where everything is executed so well from Mala specialities to hot pot to classic Chinese dishes like egg rolls and fried rice. Everything is delicious!
March 2026
They have amazing bar of various sauces. Good quantity and quality was quite good, the dumplings were not our favorites but augmented with the sauces were good. The other dishes as well as tea were good we will go back.
