Fantastic as always. Their Cumin lamb is an all time fav dish along with Stir Fried Green Bean 干煸四季豆. I tried Cumin Beef(Spicy) 孜然牛(辣) instead this time which had thicker and juicier but blander meat.

The Spicy Chicken 辣子鸡 was an absolutely 10/10 fresh - crispy, pleasantly spicy with unique mala chili numbness. It also holds up super well reheated the next day.
The Roast Duck Fried Rice 烤鸭炒饭t suffered a little bit in execution. The duck was well cooked originally, I'm sure but the skin had gotten a bit soft and taken on an unpleasant texture having been cooked subsequently with the rice and then put in the takeaway container. Probably an absolute banger in the restaurant, but only a 6/10 as delivery.
Portions of both were generous and more than enough for several meals.
Overall, great food, will absolutely be ordering from them again.

Duck was good but it definitely irks me putting a $33 meal in a styrofoam container.
Orange Chic (Spicy) 陈皮鸡(辣)ken and General Tsos Chicken 左宗鸡 were not good and little to no flavor.
Wouldn't order again.

This is easily the best Chinese food I've had in Austin. You can actually taste the peppercorns in the Sichuan dishes, and not some watered down American interpretation like a lot of other places. It might seem expensive, but the portions are enormous. This is our second time eating from here, and there will definitely be many more times in our future.

I ordered H13. Spicy Boiled Fish In Chilli Sauce H13.成都水煮鱼 and it was my first order from Mala Chili. It will definitely not be my last. First of all, the portion is huge! It came piping hot. Second, it tasted amazing. It was spicy but not to the extent that it makes you sick. It was also not greasy which is quite common with this dish. Can't wait to try more off their menu
