We travel from Potomac, MD to eat at Mala Tang. The food is authentic, delicious and an experience. We love to do the hot pot when we have a large group as we can all share the proteins and veggies to put inside. When we are a smaller group we love the dry pot. The vegetables they offer are very fresh and unique. The service is always top notch and the price is very reasonable. We can't wait to go back!

The food was delicious and the servers were friendly; definitely no negative notes from me! I will say my spice tolerance got underestimated and the medium spice I was recommended wasn't all that spicy to me (though it was still delicious!), but that happens basically every time I go to somewhere that serves truly spicy food.
