Mala Class has earned its reputation as one of the top Szechuan restaurants, with reviewers consistently praising its expertly balanced spice and flavor. The Dan Dan noodles, in particular, stand out, with many reviewers noting their fresh, less oily texture and rich peanut flavor. The fried mushrooms and dumplings also receive high marks, with some reviewers praising the nice dusting of cumin on the mushrooms. While Mala Class has earned its reputation, diners should be aware that it's a small, casual place, and wait times may be longer than expected. Reservations are not mentioned in reviews, so it's unclear whether they are available or recommended. Parking and hours of operation are also not mentioned, so diners should plan accordingly.

Excerpts

I’d stack Mala Class up against the top Szechuan restaurants in the game. Confidently one of the best I’ve ever had in this style of cuisine. If you’re looking for spice that actually has amazing flavor then this is your place. Not one of those burns without enjoyment, but a nice heat that builds and leaves you wanting more. Our favorites of the night were the Dan Dan noodles & the dumplings in chili oil, but we also had the dry pepper chicken wings, the mushroom fries, the cukes & bean curds, and the mapo tofu and loved everything. The staff was so friendly and attentive and the restaurant has a cozy vibe that feels like going to a friend’s home for dinner. You can tell that they put thought into the menu and love into the recipes. Highly recommend 🤙🏼

Small and casual place serving some great szechuan food. We tried the fried mushrooms, dumplings, wings and Dan Dan noodles. The fried mushrooms were good with a nice dusting of cumin. The dumplings were tasty. The Dan Dan noodles were great, with lots of peanut flavor. They were a little more fresh (less oily) than most versions we've tried. We liked those quite a bit. The wings were amazing and we loved those. I need that chili mix on top to sprinkle on top of everything at home! Nothing was too spicy, we might ask for a bit more spice on the noodles next time. Very excited we have a szechuan option with a cool vibe to add to our rotation. The restaurant is very cute and the service was great. Very attentive and friendly.

Best 乾麵 I’ve had outside of Taiwan. Get the extra spicy! You surely won’t regret and extra spicy bowl of Dan Dan Noodles
