" Came for dinner on a Friday night. We waited a bit for a table, but it was worth it. Deeply satisfying Sichuan cuisine that felt both genuine and exciting. The dry hot pot was particularly memorable! The only downside was that the service felt slightly rushed since they were busy, but they did their best. " (*Curated Review*)

" The flavors at Mala Sichuan are unlike anything I've tried in the U.S. The lamb was marinated to perfection, and the heat level was just right for my palate. The only thing I would suggest is to have a bit more attention to service, as our waitress seemed slightly overwhelmed. Nevertheless, I would definitely recommend this place to spice lovers! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a fantastic meal at Mala Sichuan! The dry pot fish had the perfect level of spiciness, and the dumplings were to die for! The service was okay—they were busy, but they checked on us frequently. I can't wait for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was blown away by the flavors of the Sichuan dishes at this restaurant! The service was great, and my spicy crispy chicken was plated beautifully. The atmosphere was cozy, making it a perfect spot for date night. I highly recommend the dry pot fish for something different! " (*Curated Review*)
