KungFu Mala 쿵푸마라 功夫麻辣

The food was incredibly delicious. You choose your items from the buffet, they weigh them, and prepare them to your desired level of spiciness inside. My only concern was that they use the same tongs for all the items. It's not hygienic for them to touch both the meat and the vegetables. Also, it was very busy when we went; we had to wait 25 minutes. They politely informed us of this beforehand. However, if you don't want to wait, I recommend paying attention to the time you go.

Officially my favorite restaurant in the bay area. Everything tastes incredibly good. Edit: The broth on my second visit was extremely off. It lacked flavor and even though it was spice level 3, it tasted the same as spice level 1. The 간 of the broth was 신거워. And the cream shrimp was waaaaaay too sweet for my taste. But still, amazing service! Wish it was a bit more consistent.

This place has such a great vibe—modern, welcoming, and spotlessly clean. Every dish we tried was absolutely delicious. You can really tell they care about both the food and the overall experience.

I am very thankful they are open and still here. Taste 💯! my fav meal of ALL TIME.

I love this place, I can choose whatever I like to eat from the mini bar and the kitchen cooks it for me based on my preferred way (soup or stir). Very clean and spacious. It’s my second time been here and I hope it keeps serving good food to everyone!

The mala tang (soup) at a spicy level 2.0 was soooo good. You can also get stir fry option which was very delicious. They had so many options for toppings as well, including enoki mushrooms, fishball, rice ball, squash, and many other veggie and noodle options. The pork belly, beef, and chicken skewers were so juicy. The beef was especially tender! Definitely coming back to try all the other items on their menu!

This is my favorite place in the East Bay Area! All of their menus are packed with flavor. Their staff are friendly and I always have a good time here. Whether it be a meal alone or gathering with friends/family, I recommend this place because I guarantee they will have something for everyone.
