The food is not fresh and the service is bad. I would not recommend this restaurant. Comparing to other Mala places in fort lee I prefer rahomgbu better. Would never come to this restaurant again. read more

Came here to try out the food tonight. It was pretty good. It is $9.99/lb and you pick whatever meats and veggies that you want in your stir fry. They also have various fish balls. Not that many choices for meat. I believe I only saw beef and lamb. I would have liked to see chicken pork and shrimp and other seafood. We opted for the dry stirfry with very little spice. That was the perfect amount of spiciness. We also ordered a stir fried pork with dry tofu. It's not spicy. It was a fairly large dish and decent. I felt it was a tad on the salty side but with white rice, it was ok. All in all, we enjoyed this place and would be back. read more

Walked in by accident, walked out happy!! Had the soup and the stir fry. Fantastic, flavorful, and fresh ingredients. Also had some of the fried skewers: moist, tender and not greasy at all. Wonderful and friendly staff, especially since I came in 40 minutes before close. Can't wait to be back. read more

The food was absolutely delicious however the service was astonishingly horrible. After paying for our meal, the manager began to harass my friends and I for tips. As students, we handed her all the money we had and had already given her a six dollar tip before she demanded more. As we made it clear that we didn't have any more money, she sighed and looked at us incredulously as she walked away. I would give zero stars but unfortunately the food was too good. read more

I am pretty much obsessed with Wok Bar. Their veggie, mushroom, meat and carb selections are not as extensive as other restaurants of the same concept, but the dry pot and soupy hot pot are as good as it gets in this part of town. The flavor explodes in your mouth from the first to the last bite. They do a thorough job of making sure all items in the bowl are packed with flavor. The pricing is good and they have a rewards program as well. One small complaint is that it is tad salty occasionally. Other than that, this place is a go to for my weekend lunches. read more

Probably our 30th time here together. We always get the same thing: medium spicy dry pot. P.S. "One free soda" reward only includes Sprite, Coke, Diet Coke, etc. (not the green tea, herbal drink, coconut milk, plum juice) read more

Not as good as Lao Ma in Flushing but this is also the only place around the area if you want dry hot pot. We've been here for a few times now for mostly take outs. The dry hot pot is pretty straight forward. You pick whatever ingredients of meat, veggies, noddles, fish balls that you want and they cook it right there for you with the level of spiciness that you want. We usually pick the medium spicy and that is tolerable. The flavor is not as strong or numbing as Lao Ma in flushing and i also find it a bit too watery after they cook it. But again this is the only place in the area. They also give you rice to go with it We dined here once and ordered a bunch of their other items like young chow fried rice which was pretty decent. And their house noddle and their sesame noddle which were a bit soggy and bland. So stick with the ma la stuff here. Overall this is the place to come if you want spicy hotpot or dry hot pot read more

We are frequent visitors to this restaurant. The one time we come where the lovely woman who always controls the cash register is not there (we love her) we end up waiting 40 min for our to go order only to realize they gave it to someone else. They weren't busy and had over half a dozen on staff in the back, including the manager. Not sure what happened but definitely put a damper on our long term experience. read more

I ordered beef dry hotpot for pick up and it was very disappointing. beef was extremely dry and only had 4-5 small pieces of beef in it. It was not worth of money. I had better dry hot pot before. sadly I am not recommending this place. read more

Nice concept - Select your veggies , select meat in bowl and they can make it into a traditional hot pot or dry hot pot. I asked for the spicy hot pot and it was really really spicy . Overall the hot pot was awesome. I am certainly going to be here again and try their medium spicy hot pot. read more

Our new favorite in Fort Lee! I ordered Spicy hot pot ( medium spicy) and thoroughly enjoyed it. You get to build your own pot ( priced as per weight). I had chicken, fish, tofu, beef ball , fried egg along with spinach, plain noodles and glass noodles. The spicy soup perfectly blended with them and I relished each and every bite/sip!! Mr. Ordered crayfish ( I tried is for the first time and liked it too). The server was way too sweet and made sure we understand the menu and helped us in building the pot too. All in all a must visit place! read more

I never give any store bad review! Especially the food I like, but this store gave me very BAD experience！ First time, I order Spicy Dry Hot pot, and I there was a steel wire inside the food！I even almost eat it inside! After I show to the cashier, she just said "oh it dropped out when we clean the wok". WITHOUT A SORRY WITHOUT ANY SOLUTION !! Ok, then I tried second time for take out spicy hot pot. I order the beef one which cost $9. When I back home there is only half now of some pieces of veggies, two pc of potato, NO bean thread！This portion is worth $9?????? I call back to this store ask them why there is missing stuff. She said "oh I forgot!" When I ask them how to solve this issue, she said "what can I do, it's already cooked, or you can come back I give you a bowl of rice!" WTF? Worst experience ever! You can deserve better food for the same price! read more

Pretty cool spot for dry hotpot. The spices were good and the set up is nice. Price isn't bad for the area paid about $13-17 for a bowl - the mongolian hot pot spot 5 minutes away was about $40 for a single bowl. Service was attentive and the restaurant is really bright and clean. read more

came here for lunch on a saturday after my sister wanted to eat mala. there was only 2 other parties here otherwise, pretty empty. you can either order actual dishes or go to the corner and grab your ingredients how hotpot places are. we chose to grab our own ingredients for $14.95/pound for the 3 of us. we grabbed vegetables and meat and brought it over to the counter where they weighed it and asked us how spicy we would like our food. the total came out to be $52. it was enough food for all 3 of us to feel content. drinks are a bit pricey - $3 for the herbal tea. overall, not bad ! read more

This is the first Ma-la-Tang (spicy hot pot) place in Fort Lee area and I really like it! You can pick whatever you want to eat and they cook for you and the food will be charged by weight. I love I you are paying exactly what you eat, there are no wastes and there are no overeating. The service is always polite and attentive from the minute you walk in. The food is fresh and the broth is flavorful. I always order the soupy hot pot, but maybe I'll try dry hot pot next time because I've seen a lot of customers ordering dry hot pot, too. (They do not serve rice when you ordered soup hot pot, but they will give you rice for free when you order dry hot pot, interesting right?!) If I could just suggest one thing, it is definitely the credit card policy. They only allow credit card for $20 but this threshold seems to be high. Nowadays, I rarely bring cash with me. If they can loose their credit card policy or lower the credit cars threshold , I can definitely foresee myself coming here more often because the food is just delicious and it's also very addictive！ read more

Finally , a Ma-la-tang in Fort Lee. Came out here for a weekend brunch and found the place to be quite empty. Just like any other Ma-la-tang, you have your choices of meat and vegetable. Here, everything is kept in a open cooler. From a quick glance, I've found the vegetable and meat to be of pretty high quality, no welted leaves or defrosted meat or anything like that, which is usually the first sign I look out for. We decided try both the dry and soup version and asked for mild spicy. Between the two, I highly recommend the dry version because it's much more flavorful. I did find the spicy level to be somewhat toned down. Same goes with the oil situation in the dry version. I usually like mine stirred with a sinful quantity of chili oil. Other than that, the ma-la-tang is pretty decent, still a bit away from what they serve in Flushing. read more

This is one of my favorite spots near my office. I was able to sell the idea of moving to Fort Lee to my husband just by taking here last week!!! The dry fry sauce and skewers were both so flavorful and there was something about the spice they use that make them so addictive. I am not a big fan of their fish cakes, so I often picked just veggies and beef/lamb/seafood. I have not tried the hot pot version as I was too drawn to dry fry every time I was here. I take one star off because their $2 charge for rice is kinda silly and I wish they could be more consistent with the level of spiciness. There was one time I was on fire with their medium level while being totally fine other times. The bottom line is that you must try in when you are in the area!!!! read more

I ordered directly through their website, and my delivery came so quick I'm shookth. Also it tastes amazing. ALWAYS order directly from their website! you can pick your ingredients on their website but you can't on grubhub/yelp ordering system Skewers: everything is sprinkled with the chili cumin, but not the powdery kind! More like a paste, very good. -The rice cake is so insanely good, you have to try it --Fish cake skewer: delicious -Lamb/Beef/Chicken skewers: delicious -Chicken tender-big boy tendie, very good. -chicken gizzard: don't order this, it came half cooked. dry hot pot sauce (medium) is perfect amount of spice if you want some spice in your life but too chicken to try the "extra spicy". young chow fried rice-still good, despite what we read in the other reviews. standard young chow fried rice. Needs more soy sauce imo. read more

Been here many times and this place never disappoints me. I usually order the authentic Mala xiang guo they serve here and the flavor is always good! I believe it is $9.99/lb an you can choose from the vast selection they offer such as meat, veggies, and much more. I usually add the thick crystal noodles into my Mala xiang guo because I like its chewiness and texture! The enoki mushrooms is something else I like adding. Small spiciness is what I got in the beginning, but now medium spiciness seems alright to me too. I also ordered the Beef tendon & tripe (夫妻肺片) and the taste was so so. It didn't seem fresh but it still had a nice kick in the flavor. Service here is pretty quick, staff are attentive and friendly. All in all, I would just come here for the xiang guo. I will be back :D read more

horrible dry hotpot. If you ever think it's good, that means you've never had good ones. Speaking of their skewers. Disaster. Tough, dry, just plain awful. Totally waste of my time and money. Don't eat here. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the fun eating experience of Wok Bar, and the food was equally tasty. The waitstaff welcomed us and briefly explained the process of selecting items for our hot pot or dry pot, then selecting the spice level, and that the price is based on the weight of the food. They asked if we wanted any of the skewers, of which we found it impossible to narrow down the most appealing ones. No regrets there, the skewers were all deliciously seasoned with a peppery spice. Some of our favorites were the fish cake, squid and dried tofu. We then moved on to building our hot pot bowls. The selection of mushrooms, tofu, veggies, noodles and meats was great providing multiple variations of each item. We loaded up- a little too much- and handed it off to the waitress to turn it into a spicy soup! The spice of the extra spicy was great and it was a peppery warming broth. Overall, very pleased with Wok Bar! read more

Warning! This register lady will force you to pay for orders they mess up. She literally yelled at me in front of other customers, then forced me to pay for their mistakes. I'm livid as I write this review as I've never been treated so poorly at restaurant and I'm a regular!!! read more

Nothing to be excited about. I do like that this place has a unique set up. For a create your own bowl, they charge you 9.95/lbs. the broth was pretty good, ordered it medium spicy and there really wasn't a difference between that and mild. The service was slightly sub par. And FYI, this place does not except credit if your order is below $20. There's plenty of banks around for you to run to your nearest ATM (chase, capital one, wells fargo). read more

A rare find of authentic Chinese street food. The place is reasonably priced and uses fresh ingredients. The place is clean and spacious. We brought a stroller and had no problem. The staff is nice and helpful. When ordering, be careful not to go too spicy on your first visit. Much easier to go spicier than reverse. Coming back for sure! read more

Thy Chinese waitress is very rude. The water is supposed to be free but she use it as an excuse demanding more tips. She should be fired!

This restaurant is probably the most authentic Chinese restaurant in Fort Lee, even in Jersey, and better than most of the Chinese restaurant in the city . Now you don't need to go to Flushing for real Chinese food anymore. Their spicy dry hot pot is a must try product!! 3月底刚开业，无意间路过发现的超好吃中餐，麻辣香锅和麻辣烫真的超好吃！！！！！比曼哈顿的几家麻辣香锅店都好吃而且超级实惠，真是物美价廉，老板人超好超亲民，现在上瘾到每周都会来！ read more

My go-to place for spicy dry pot. So far I'm always happy with the food. You will take a big bowl and pick what you want to eat from the fridge. Then take it to cashier to weight and they will cook it for you for either dry pot or hot pot. Recommend to add instant noodle in the spicy dry pot. In my experience, try fill the bowl and a bit over for two people. read more

I should put that in too.... Def. a place to try... something different ... something challenging .. Will recommend .... will be back.. read more

Went for Lunch Food - 1/5. I realize I didn't get the signature hot pot but I believe anything an establishment offers should be of quality and if not, it should not be offered in the first place. My first warning sign came when my food came out in a literal minute after ordering and they were of expected quality. Skewers were lukewarm with signs of age prevalent on the meats. The fat parts were hard and the meat had the dry skin of when a food is left out. Spices were of good flavor but I couldn't help but feel it was masking the poor quality of the items under them. Young chow fried rice is possibly one of the most disappointing things I've eaten. I heard them stir-frying it for the rice for less than a minute and it showed. First thing you notice is they don't use char siu or Chinese sausage, which is iconic of young chow, but use spam as a cheaper alternative. Anyone that likes spam can tell you that you need to cook it and give it a nice crispy skin to make it good as otherwise its just a mushy canned pork product (which people that don't like spam can relate to). Unsurprisingly, the less than minute cook time did not allow for crispy skin to form so all you're left with is lukewarm cubed spam. The onions were practically raw giving you that plant cell breaking crunch and the frozen carrots and peas had cold centers. The entire dish being lukewarm just did not help anything. Awful food. Service - 1/5. The service was super fast to the point where it was obvious they wanted me to hurry up and leave. The staff was not attentive at all and more or less disappeared after rushing to serve my food, which didn't take long as the cook time was less than a minute. When it was time for payment they appeared out of the blue and was super fast with processing the bill. Making the customer feel they are unwelcome and a burden to rush out the door is awful service. Value - 1/5. If the food and service were even remotely decent the prices might be average. The skewers being $1.50 would be pretty good value but $10 for that size portion of fried rice would be considered expensive anywhere. Of course in this case, since the food was awful, spending any amount of money isn't worth it. They gave the finishing touch by having a ridiculously high $20 minimum for credit card. Just a terrible experience. Parking - Street (Metered) read more

First thing I noticed was the attentive service. We ordered 1 dry pot, one hot pot (soup), beef skewers, lamb skewers, quail eggs, and octo tentacle skewers. Everything was delicious. One mistake I made was when building our hot pots, we overloaded with some heavy noodles which is not worth it since the price is by the pound. 1 of the hot pots came out to $40 so next time we'll try to just go with proteins to get more bang for our buck. In my opinion, this is one of the best tasting healthy food spots I've ever been to. Will definitely be coming back a lot. read more

Amazing. We had dry hot pot, hot pot and three skewers, all of which were amazing. The staff was friendly as well. We brought soju and beer to accommodate our meal, and needless to say more it was a great choice. We were too excited to try that we picked too much ingredients that we were no where near finishing our food and had to to-go the rest but it was beyond satisfactory. For future, I will put less ingredients or choose one from dry hot pot or regular hot pot, for it was too much food. Regardless, I would absolutely come back! read more

A few of my customers recommended this spot as a delicious, satisfying and spicy restaurant that I must try. I excitedly went there and parked across the street (meters in Fort Lee are free after 6pm!) I walked into a clean, modern, brightly lit spot that had new looking tables, nice chairs and booths. Since I've never been here I didn't know what to expect but the server brought over a menu and explained that I could look over it and walk over to the station with bowls and tongs to grab the veggies/proteins/noodles I wanted if I was ordering soup or dry hot pot. The back of the menu also contained an assortment of dishes that the kitchen could make a la carte. After reading, I got up and grabbed a bowl and filled it with a few of my favorite veggies (oyster mushrooms, lotus root, enoki/straw mushroom, nappa cabbage) then added the ramen type noodles plus glass noodles to the bowl. I moved over to the protein and grabbed some lamb and assorted fish balls (lobster, fish filled with ham, traditional fish ball) then handed my bowl over to the lady where I ordered a dry hot pot (additional $2) with "tiny" spice level since I am pregnant. I went over to the beverage fridge and selected a sweetened canned milk drink. The drink was delicious and milk helps cool down spice so it was a good choice. My food arrived quickly with a bowl of rice to accompany it. The flavors of the dry hot pot were spicy, a little salty (not too much which is good) and fragrant! I liked mixing my rice with the hot oils at the bottom of the bowl! Service was friendly, quick and attentive. I will definitely be back! read more

I got the spicy hot pot and my boyfriend got the dry hot pot so we could see which one we'd get next time. It's 14.95 per lb and it adds up once you start putting everything you want in the bowl. The veggies and meat were very fresh! They ask you how spicy you want it once you bring it to the register. I got tiny spice and my boyfriend got medium spicy. The medium was way too spicy for me, but tiny was perfect. You can get other things besides hotpot on the menu. We both enjoyed the dry hotpot more, but next time we'll get tiny spice instead of medium! read more

Very cool place to try if you're feeling adventurous. You walk in and grab a bowl by the food bar. You add any of the raw ingredients that you desire into your bowl. It includes meats, tofu, and veggies galore. Then you go up to the counter and specify how you want it cooked (soup or stir fry) and what level of spicy you want. I was going to get level 3 because I love spicy food, but the worker said it's like almost too hot, so I got the medium spice and was quite satisfied. read more
