    Dry Mix
    Josh O.

    Parking: located in a strip mall with parking lot in front of restaurant Service: cafeteria style to fill bowl with choice of meats, veg, and starches. You then pay at the cashier and choose your sauce or soup flavor. Staff was friendly and cleaned our table before assigning us. Ambiance: casual Food: Got the savory dry mix, but tried a bit of my parties soups and everything was solid. A great comfort meal post EDC

    I loveeee Mala Town!!! Their 50% off promo was very dangerous for me... HAHA As you line up to select what you'd like to be in your bowl, you'll choose what soup base you'd like at the counter as it gets weighed, and once you are seated, there is a bar for you to create your own sauce next to complimentary water and tea. I like the set up of the restaurant! Not only is the food delicious (I personally love the Mild Signature Beef Bone Broth but also have been getting the Sweet & Sour Tomato), the service is always great, and during the super busy times, seating can become limited, but I would say that seating is usually available. Parking may become sparse because of the lot it is in alongside other hotspots in the plaza.

    Craving soup and found this gem that offers so many options and best of all you choose your ingredients that you want in your soup. The flavors of all different soup base are very delicious. I got the Tom Yum and had all the flavor you need to pair with any protein and vegetables. Everything in the soup building station looks clean and fresh. When we got to the cashier, she helped us with any questions and also helped us with making a decision with our soup base. Jasmine was at the cashier and she was very helpful and friendly and made the experience at Mala Town so much better and welcoming! Can't wait to be back!!!

    Come to Mala Town now for discount! Mala town has been my go to spot for amazing hot pot that is fully customizable. I love getting the tomato soup base because it is so sweet and tangy that pairs well with a lot of the vegetable toppings. Service is quick, as you pick and grab your toppings then take it to the counter. They have a sauce bar where you can get your spice fixing from chili oil, garlic, chili flakes, etc. Limited time they are offering 50% off every Tuesday and Wednesday!

    All over tik tok I see ppl go to build your own hot pot. Cant lie I got severe fomo so I NEEDED to try at least once in my life and I pleasantly had driven to this place. Me and some friends were a lil bit confused on what to do at first as there is nowhere in AZ where we can build our own hot pot but Paul was so kind and showed us how the hot pot process works . We were given a bowl and began loading up. We were told most ppl get 1.5 lbs typically. The bowls are priced via weight with that being $15.99/lb. Yeah I love this. I was so excited I was grab happy and ended up with 2.8lbs regardless I was happy. Everyone I was with all got different broths one being the Szechuan and another being Bone broth. Both were so delicious. We were assigned a table the cooked our hot pot in the back and was brought to our table. My brother unfortunately had been grab crazy and got 5lbs but even after we finished all our food he was happy he could take it home and keep eating. (Mind you we still had to drive to AZ by the time we got back ME AND MY FRIEND DEVOUREDDDDD EVERY SINGLE BUT THAT WAS LEFT). I think me saying I love this place is an understatement I LIVE LAUGH LOVE ESPECIALLY ADORE MALA TOWN The staff members were all so kind and funny. Paul for sure made our experience the best. We told him we come to Vegas often and now this will be our go to. So thank you Mala town for the amazing food and hospitality. a huge thank you from my belly cuz now I craveeeeee mala town. YYAYAYAYAYAYA I LOVE MALA TOWN

    Busy Plaza in Chinatown is where you'll find mala town. Parking was a bit tight but cars are going in and out quickly so you'll eventually find out. Mad line and crowd inside the restaurant means good business! We grabbed our bowls and tongs and added everything to be made with the spicy Bone broth. Their spicy is very spicy so he aware. While seated and sipping on complementary water and ice tea, our bowls got served. While piping hot, we started denting the bowl. Super hot (temp) and spicy (spice) yet delicious but we couldn't finish so took left overs to go. Grab your own Togo containers, utensils, and bags. Will be back soon!

    Came here during EDC weekend and it was packed. It's a self serve restaurant where you pick your own toppings and then they boil it into your choice of broth. I like that they were well organized when seating people after they've ordered. There's a sauce bar at the end of the room for your meal. My tomato broth was a bit watered down.

    Mala Town is a buffet style hot pot where you pick your own ingredients from vegetables to protein and choose a soup base and they cook it for you. Really fun concept with great variety. Everything was fresh and flavorful. Great experience overall and definitely planning to go back soon.

    Anna N.

    I see why this place is so highly rated by so many people! I love how you can pick so many different meat, vegetable, and soup options. Skip getting the corn on the cob because it is pretty heavy, so opt for the baby corn. The line went by fast and the food also came out quick. I recommend getting the signature bone broth. I also love how there is a tea option for drinks and lemon water. There are a bunch of seats and tables inside. The workers were all very nice especially the cashier! The bottled drinks on the shelves are also very good.

    Different type of noodles
    Kaori W.

    Very clean and so much fun to select from buffet style ingredients station. Also I loved the selection of different types of broth. Customer service was very helpful and polite. They explain how to make it taste as you like. You don't need to be shy, just ask them, and they will help you . Old building but they keep very clean and spacious. Only problem is very hard to get the parking lot. Space is limited. So be prepared for that.

    I love this place! SUPER GOOD and AMAZING SERVICE! I love going here for both the food and service ALWAYS recommend this to my friends and family and it's such a great place to eat good and catch up! It's always clean and has amaaazing vibes all the time! Paul is so fun and kind as well, it's always a good time when he's there! If you love hot pot, you've GOT TO come here

    This is my go-to Malatang place in LV. The service is super friendly and the ingredients are pretty fresh. There a large selection that you can choose from to add to your broth or dry noodles. There is also a sauce bar that includes unsweetened tea that is self serve. The place is also pretty clean and has a good amount of seating. I've tried the signature beef broth and the tum yum. My favorite has to go to the signature. It is super flavorful and does not feel too oily like other places. The tum yum is good as well but the signature beef has a more complex flavor. I was sad when I went in today and they were sold out of the beef broth! They are currently having a 7.99lb deal on tuesdays and wednesdays before 6pm but I think it is ending next week so definitely take your chance and go soon!

    Rewina T.

    It's a pick-your-own-bowl kind of deal here! You come in and are immediately greeted with a lineup of veggies, noodles, and meat. No server came up to us to give us the low-down on how this works; you were just there to grab one of the bowls and start filling it up with things you like. The options they have were plenty, though, all kinds of cuts of meats and different Asian veggies and noodles to add to your dish. Although, if you were to go to a sit-down or all-you-can-eat hot place (like Chubby Cattle), I do believe they have a lot more options over there. On the bright side here, you don't have to worry about over ordering since you're getting everything at once; they charge you by the weight, so try not to be like me and get too many noodles and hike up your price. They have different soup base options, and I chose the spicy beef one. It wasn't that spicy at all to me, but they did have a sauce station where you can add more spice and toppings to your liking, so that was nice. This is a great spot if you want a quick hotpot trip without all the wait at the other places, but not so great if you want a really great hotpot hangout with friends.

    Is there gluten free options?

    Are there VEGGIE Broth options?

    Yes. They have a tomato broth option which is sweet I believe.

    As someone with a severe shellfish allergy, is there any shellfish mixed into the broth choices?

    Hi, We cook each bowl with separate pot and for the broth , no shellfish mixed. Thanks

    Do you have to pay for the other ingredients or you only have to pay 15$ only?

    It’s weight by pound. 14.99/ibs for all ingredients

    Do you have to select type of noodles and are the noodles weighed too?

    You select for a wide variety of different toppings, veggies, proteins, and noodles before everything is weighed together. Then you select your broth and enjoy. You can even order rice on the side if you prefer that instead of noodles.

    Do they offer rice?

    Yes: they do

Alex took care of us from walking in all the way to dessert He was witty, funny and took the extra time to explain the intricacies of the dishes we inquired about. The experience was phenomenal lead by him and backed up by the kitchen and the rest of the team. He talked us into the duck special which came with duck soup, salt-n-pepper duck and whole duck carved at the table by Alex. Duck Soup - Delicious and savory broth. The cuts were tender and delicious. The best I've had in a long time. Salt N Pepper Duck - A crispy duck dish I've never had before. Good times. Guo Bao Pork - Creative, delicious and I understand why this is a feature dish. Green Beans - Perfect veggie pairing for all this food. The portions were so generous and I had 3 containers of food to take home for dinner. I appreciated the birthday dessert at lunch to finish off the experience. Well, that was a fantastic first visit. It definitely won't be the last as I see a dinner visit in the near future. Cheers!

The menu runs the full arc from classic dim sum executed with genuine care, to creative preparations that justify their own existence rather than just existing to be interesting, to live seafood presentations that remind us why we made the drive. The garlic sandstorm lobster is a personal obsession at this point. The Peking duck service is more than decent. That's not a small thing. Decent Peking duck in the hands of a kitchen that actually respects the bird is better than spectacular Peking duck somewhere that treats it like a menu checkbox. One warning, delivered in good faith to diners: we once held a 9:30pm reservation that Palette accepted without comment, then called us to request we move it because the kitchen closes around that time. The reservation system, as of our last check, still accepts 9:30 bookings. Whether the kitchen situation has evolved is unclear. What is clear is that the right move is to verify before you arrive, or simply book earlier. Vegas' Chinatown is vast. Not all of it deserves your time. This one does.
