Reviews for Malubianbian in Houston, TX
Had a very long lunch with my (Chinese) friend. Very interesting hot pot experience. They have a ton of different skewers in... their fridge. My friend thinks very highly of their decor. They play (what I think is) Chinese pop inside. Read more
Atmosphere and decor there are the best in that plaza! No doubt! Food is okay. Soup base is so so but a lot of variety of... choices. Read more
This place is full of that Chinese ambiance and gave me and my mom a really good vibe :) They workers here were attentive and... nice and the place is overall very clean. When I came in the offered me the hair ties and I think the skewers is pretty worthyat 0.6¢ per skewer. Moreover I think that the food has a good selection and amongst the hotpot places in flushing this wouldfor sure rank in the top 5.\n\nI recommend the Tomato pot ahead of everything and I think the tomato soup base here is for surethe best I\never had. I think they make it with fresh tomatoes\nunlike the other places who make it with soup base\npackets andyou can for sure taste the difference! Read more
Very interesting combination with skewers and hotpot. I found out it’s been trendy in China but haven’t got a chance to try... here in Houston. Glad Malubianbian brought this unique dining experience to H-town.\nSoup is around average but they havevariety of food choices in the fridge, which is not common to see in other hotpot restaurants.\nIt also comes with unlimitedBlue Bell ice cream after you finish hotpot.\nWill definitely come back!

Okay, my honest opinion about this place is purely about how my experience was. I got here on a Sunday night. It was not bad of... a wait: about 15 minutes. I went with a friend who went before and helped me out in choosing which broth to get and what to do.We got the spicy szechuan and tomato broth; both were delicious. Grabbing the ingredients for the hotpot from the fridgeweren\'t a big deal and it was a neat idea. It\'s very different from other places for sure. There were plenty of selectionsthat were good enough; you got your noodles, veggies, and meat. Some items weren\'t quite fresh but I know they do their best toswitch it out. The skewered ones were cute and easy to cook in the broth; you just stick it in and take it out once it was done.Luckily, they have a disposal bucket for the sticks. I would go back here again to try out the other broths. It\'s a nice placeto go with friends but not too big of a crowd. Read more
Nice place in China Town of Houston. A bit pricy but worthy! I feel that I lost the way to China in this store. Really unique... area. AYCE every day. The server is fast. We just need take foods from the fridge and enjoy it. Read more
A very beautiful restaurant that looks like a street market. The interior is colorful with awesome murals and bright,... eye-popping colors. The hot pot soup bases are flavorful and there is a great selection of meats and veggies both on and off theskewers. If you have never tried it before, order the spicy duck blood, as it is excellent here. This spot is certainly a littleon the pricey side, which keeps it from being a frequent outing. But the quality will keep us coming back for the occasionalspecial meal. Read more
