Mala Sichuan in Houston

When I go to the Montrose location my go-to dishes are the mapo tofu and the fried string beans -- so when I saw that these are paired together in a combo at Finn Hall I felt a) validated, and b) THRILLED.

When I go to the Montrose location my go-to dishes are the mapo tofu and the fried string beans -- so when I saw that these are paired together in a combo at Finn Hall I felt a) validated, and b) THRILLED. For dining along the serving size and price were right (main restaurant is more of a sharing portion). My brother is new to Szechuan food so I recommended the kung pao chicken and red oil dumplings which I think is a good version of dishes more Chinese take out style, but with the same quality as the other dishes. He loved it! Very happy with the quality and would dine again when I'm in the area.

Terrible, I work across the street from Finn Hall and will never be coming here again. Incompetent service - I had to wait 40 minutes standing in front of this place waiting when there were very few customers. It is fine if you forget an order since everyone makes mistakes but don't try to give boldface lies about not knowing how to give refunds.

This was my first venture to Finn Hall and of all places that they had to offer, I was drawn to Mala Sichuan. I decided to get a small plate as well as a large plate in order to get a variety of flavors. I ordered the Plum Baby Back Ribs as well as the Egg on Dan Dan Noodles. Now before I can go into the taste, I would like to point out the size of my dishes. Both pictured below, I would say that the Plum Baby Back Ribs were to the size that I expected, but the Dan Dan Noodles were much larger than my expectation! It only cost $9 and I was almost able to make 3 meals out of this dish!! Real bang for your buck!! As far as taste, I would say I picked a nice pairing of sweet and spicy, with the short ribs being sweet and soft in texture and the Dan Dan Noodles having a nice kick due to the Sichuan sauce under then noodles. Overall, I honestly had a great time and a lovely meal.
