Mala Sichuan Bistro - Katy

If you’re craving authentic sichuan food, this is the place to go. Their spices hit the spot and satisfy very well. Popular restaurant as it seems the owner is doing well with several others across Houston. This can be reflected as the food quality is phenomenal.Check this place out don’t forget to order the pan fried beef (crispy Mala beef)Parking: This is in a popular area aka sugar lane Chinatown so the plaza contains other popular shops. May have to park a bit further and walk here.

Very authentic Sichuan food! Flavor and spice are on point, loved the pork intestines and the ribs. Just wish there’re more meat in the dishes. (It was mostly bones in the ribs.

This location along with the one on Bellaire are favorites. Consistently delicious.
