This place stands out for anyone seeking genuine Chinese hotpot on skewers and a welcoming atmosphere. The spicy pot is really spicy so be prepared! Highly recommended for its good food and great service, especially if you're a fan of a little heat in your meal.

Good hotpot ! Been here multiple times with friends and family. Always a go-to spot. A lot of free side dishes.

they close at 9:45pm not 11:00pm, by the way, so be aware! We went in at 9:45pm they said they're closed. Such a shame cuz we drove really far for this just. Maybe change the closing time so we know Closing time at 11pm and last call being at 9:45 is ridiculous.

I have always liked hot pot before, and this kind of small skewers hot pot is also very good. I like the beef with enoki mushrooms the most.

Service is fast, great pricing and good food. They have so many things going on in this area. I'm not usually a fan of chinese hotpot but this place is just a perfect place whenever you are craving skewer. We order spicy and tomato base. I dont like the tomato flavor since it taste artificial so maybe get something else. All the skewer were good and fresh.

Staff members are friendly and super attentive. Flavor is beyond being on point. My go-to skewer is definitely going to be chicken gizzard, pre-marinated and crispy.

Arrived around 6pm on a Friday night Parking: this plaza is horrible for parking. there's a lot of food places so spots are scattered about but it does get crowded real quick. Get there early. This is somewhat L-shaped plaza with parking in the middle Outside; this is around the middle of the plaza. A few tables outside and a few chairs for people waiting Inside: it was cozy but not suffocating. Everything was clean and tidy and tables spaced well Service: amazing! They were very courteous and prompt. They were attentive to our hotpot and helped adjust the temperature noticing it was too high without us asking. No complaints :) Food: we got the white pepper chicken and mushroom soup. The white pepper chicken side is a tad spicy - basic pepper heat. The mushroom soup is very flavorful and delicious You order on the menu of the QR code. If you have multiple people at your table, the cart updates as others add their order. There are many different varieties of food to order- plenty of spicy items if you like it, tofu, fish, regular meat, veggies. It's whatever you want to make of your hot pot experience so it's a general review but I was very full and had a good time. It does get expensive with how much stuff you can order, ofc but it isn't too bad if you split it with others Hope this helps! :)

First time trying this spot and was pleasantly surprised at the portion of the skewers and the price is decent. The beef skewers were tender and I love the beef with pineapple! Only wished there were more seafood options and items at the snack bar but overall loved the spicy house soup base and really liked they did have good selection of veggies. Would definitely come back again!

This is an underrated hotpot place. It's in a strip mall in Rowland Heights, where there's ample parking. For whatever reason, the drivers there are kinder and more patient, so as a pedestrian, I feel safe there. The restaurant itself is clean. They automated the process so that you can order your soup base, veggies, meats (on a stick or on a plate), and whatever add-ons you'd like. They have a sauce and spices station (which costs an extra $3 but it's worth it), where you can also get shrimp chips, as well as fruit like watermelon and orange slices for after the meal. My stomach cannot handle spicy stuff so we ordered the mushroom broth. It was flavorful on its own, but mixed with the seasonings we chose, made for a potent soup. We ordered things like beef with enoki mushrooms, wagyu beef, lotus root, and a nice appetizer they call spicy pork (that you dip into ketchup and an orange peppery spice mix) - everything was mouth-wateringly good. We couldn't order more because we were so full as it is, so I suggest going with a large group. The atmosphere is fun and relaxed (we went at lunchtime), and the diners inside were respectful of everybody else. Our server Tee, was friendly and attentive. She made sure our water pitcher was always full and that we understood the mechanics of how to maximize our experience there. We loved our time there so much that we are planning to spend our kid's birthday there because his friends haven't experienced anything like this. It's a forgone conclusion that it will be fun - and that we'll get so much bang for our buck! Pro tip: become a member of their program and get a discount!

Malubianbian is so good! My friends and I enjoyed our hot pot experience. Make sure to stop by the sauce bar and make your own sauce or two while you’re waiting for them to bring out the food.We got the half bone soup base and half flaming spicy soup. Even at mild for the spicy soup, it was still quite spicy. My favorite meats and veggies are the angus beef, lamb, napa cabbage, tong ha, fried tofu skin, pumpkin, mushrooms, okra and soft tofu.The world spicy world glass noodles were super bomb, but also super spicy and numbing. I could only have a few bites, but the texture was excellent and flavor was on point.Highly recommend going back to the dessert bar afterwards and getting a bowl of brown sugar jelly dessert to cool down.
