SORIMMARA

To start off this place can be a little bit confusing so make sure you ask for help. Basically the first six items on the menu are choose your own single items to add to a bowl. The you have to pay per pound. If you go for a standard large size you're looking right around $20 for a good plate of food. You get to pick your separate spice levels as well. I picked beef scallop mushroom and some glass noodles for my bowl. I picked a mild level spice, and it came out probably within 8 minutes. What is nice as they also bring you a heating (flamed) instrument to keep your food hot while you're eating. One thing I can definitely recommend is be careful what you select because a few of the items that I picked was something that I don't normally eat. I am speaking of the bean sprouts. Some people love them but apparently I don't like the aftertaste so I probably would not put them in the bowl again. Eleanor this is a must try please and it truly gives you a feel of not the standard food you eat.

This place had diy malatang with a huge variety of meat, veggie, and carb options. The ingredients were very fresh looking and clean, and some highlights include baby octopus, scallop, and cheese filled tteobokki. Unfortunately they only have malatang or rose malatang as soup base options, but they could make the malatang with no spice if requested. I got a level 4 spicy soup - it was spicy but not too excessively oily, which meant that the soup was still somewhat drinkable. The pork guabaorou was also on sale for $10 for a small portion, and it was surprisingly crispy yet light at the same time. It came with a side of sweet sauce, but you could also dip it in the malatang since it soaks up the spiciness pretty well.

I’m a huge fan of malatang, so I was thrilled when I found out about this place. This place is now my go-to spot whenever I’m craving it in Arizona. I usually stick with the original malatang, but when I’m in the mood for something richer, the rose malatang hits the spot. I really love the concept of customizing your own by choosing your ingredients and making your own sauce. Their side dishes are just as impressive~ especially the creamy shrimp guobaorou! The staff are always warm and friendly, and I genuinely enjoy dining here every time.

Got the mala xiang guo (dry pot) medium spice. I liked it a lot. Love the tingly spice of mala it has a strange addictive nature to it. The medium spice was actually pretty spicy so be warned. And I can usually handle my spice pretty good. The Malatang soup was also pretty good although I liked the dry pot version slightly better. A matter of personal preference though. You pick out all the toppings and they weigh and cook it. Again such a fun experience and tasty food. Will be back for sure!

It was great Mara place! I ordered Mala Xiang Guo, my brother order Rosé Malatang, we also ordered Pork Guobaorou and Rice Ball. I was worried if the food was salty, but it wasn’t so I can enjoy it. I might will order more spicy, I ordered Lv2 medium, but it wasn’t spicy to me. So if u love spicy, and eat well, I recommend Lv3. Pork Guobaorou also was crispy and yum with sweet chili sauce :) Also clean place and Kind service :) The restaurant is cozy too

The music is fun, the food is great and the service is exceptional! Greeted with smiles and asked if this is our first time being here. (I forgot to take the picture of the food because it was so good!)

Ordered level 3 and it was not spicy at all. Ordering was little bit confusing. They were out of fresh veggies like bokchoy. I wish there were more varieties like corn. Sauces were too thick.

I ordered Malatang, Rose Xiang Guo, Guobaorou and it was really good😻 Spicy level was 4 and It's pretty pricy. Guobaorou was crispy and sauce was sweet and sour! Especially server was so sweet and awesome! She explained the menu in detail👍 I recommend this place! Come here and try Malatang!
