“ Their food was really good! We all got dry pot and it was the perfect level of spicy. Very flavorful and lots of options, as well as a good portion size for 1 for the price. Would 100% visit again. ”
“ The best fast casual spot to get Chinese food! Chicken is super soft, all other ingredients are so fresh. This mala dry pot is full of flavor. I chose mild spicy and it is perfect for me, only feel very little tingling sense. All only for 14. ”
“ Great food, authentic Chinese dry hot pot, great service, great staff, great price. What t hell u waiting for? Come n eat if u r around Union Square. ”
“ Went here before catching a show nearby. Super good, super convenient. The food is already made so it is just a matter of pointing at what you want. Serving sizes felt big! Felt like good value. One of the dishes was cold ish, which was kind of annoying. But all of it was tasty. If you want a quick, no frills bite in the area, this is it. ”
“ This is always my go-to spot to eat when in Union Square. My usual favorite meal items haven't tried anything else as of yet. However, I've been here enough times that I'm addicted to this meal. I usually get just the stir fry and brown rice, and I have now added the avocado salad, and it didn't disappoint. You add one protein and five vegetables. For me, it's chicken, double broccoli, double cauliflower, and one mushroom. I tend to switch up the portions of vegetables depending on how I'm feeling that day. Service is always good and friendly. Staff and chefs remember me when I come in for a bite. Sometimes, I may eat in or sit outside, depending on how I feel. I just bought this into the movie theater to watch, the last voyage of the demeter. It's a very entertaining movie while having an excellent lunch. I just stopped by my favorite spot again (8/23/23), Beyond Wok, and tried something different on the menu besides the stir-fry. The beef and broccoli with strings beans and white rice. While sitting eating, Henry (good1dtggggg guy, staff) asked me to try a new dish, the chicken sanchawon. A little salty and tad spicy. However, I like spicy, just lighten up on the salt, and it's all good. Say hi to Henry. He will definitely take care of you if he sees that you are a regular customer. I stopped by Beyond Wok before going to see the exocercist: believer and purchased some take-out of salmon with fried rice and broccoli. Good as usual, 10/06/23. ”
“ I tend to only go to Flushing to get my mala dry pot fix. But no more. This place is a rare gem in Manhattan - fair price, authentic flavor, clean restaurant. Don't be fooled by the number of reviews, I think it recently opened. ”
“ I’ve walked past this place so many times but never thought to step in until I had a poke craving last night. They serve Mala hot pot, poke, and rice plates. I got a salmon poke bowl with a bunch of toppings for only 12. Ingredients were fresh and portion size was generous. There were medium and large sizes too! There are a few tables inside or you can take your meal across the street to enjoy at the park! It’s a no frills, straight forward, spot serving great food at great prices. I’ve already been back twice and excited to try other items! ”
“ After passing by everyday for over a year I decided to go in. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The establishment was very clean. You are able to see you choice of food and watch them cook it. Wasn't expecting such a nice meal, good food and lovely service in Union Square. You can eat in or take out. ”
