Mala Tang - Panda Chinese Streetfood in Karlsruhe

The soup is very filling! The ingredients are very fresh! The milk tea is very delicious!

Large selection of ingredients, broths are very tasty and everything is fresh, highly recommend!

It’s delicious. The tomato soup is particularly fragrant. The chili is also delicious. The dried tofu is highly recommended.

Another hidden Gem in the center of Karlsruhe! If anyone craves chinese traditio al mini hot pot, then this is the place! It is not only Malatang, they have various flavours to choose, tomato, korean, beefboan etc. You choose your own ingredients and flavour, it will be then prepared for you. Reasonable prices. It is a bit small and you might need to share seats with others during lunch time but this is exactly how it is in China! I lived there for 6 years and I loved eating at small, random places like these. Reminds me of Beidahu, Jilin and Haerbin, Heilongjiang.

very tasty and a large selection

Soups are all super delicious. Unfortunately a bit too little space.

Far too expensive €26 for a bowl of soup plus €3.50 for a drink, too expensive!

Amazing, the first time I tried chinese street food style was here, and I still keep coming back to Mala Tang.

Cash only Although I always eat it every time I come here, I still come here to eat it. praise!

It is a small cozy place. Ramen tastes good and the options are fine. But due to the long wait, you need a lot of patience. Also finding seating is another issue. Usually all of the seats are occupied.

Very tasty food that you can put together yourself. Large selection of different ingredients and soups. The only point of criticism: little space both inside and outside. When bubble tea is being made inside, it can get pretty loud.

Nice humble place. I like the concept when you pick exactly what you want to have in your soup.

I went there with false expectations. Thought it would be more of a ramen

Now, whenever I go to any Malatang restaurant in Germany, I compare it to this one. This is my favorite malatang restaurant :D It’s just delicious. 😋 Going for lunch is generally better in terms of freshness of ingredients and soup than going for dinner! (I wish the store was bigger)

The food was super delicious, there were always endless options. Even though the shop is very small, I found it very, very good! There was even a small toilet! The bubble tea was the tastiest thing I've ever drunk!!! A top! 5/5 great! The food was very hygienic! I know, I was there myself and saw a lot! The food was always ready quickly and I didn't wait long! My favorite restaurant❣️

Nice but dont accept card or contactless payments, it's no go for me

everything is great about this place if you consider the price relative to the food you are getting. they have fantastic selection of topping and broth flavor which can accomodate anyone. whats also great is you can customize the portion you want to have which is great if youre not that hungry but still want to eat

Best soup in town. Pay attention to peak times!

Very good Malatang, can't fault it

The food tastes delicious and is also very fresh, even if the interior decor is not for everyone. The bubble teas are also very nice. I haven't had such a good one in a long time. I can really recommend this. BE CAREFUL, no chance of eating here on the weekend.

Going to Mala Tang with my Mala’s on Sundays has now become a ritual. The soups are very authentic and full of umami. Sometimes you have to be a little lucky with the seats. Really first class for a quick snack. Please do not compare with a full-fledged restaurant.

Please at least screen out the polite ones when recruiting employees. I won't go there again for the time being, and I don't want to spend money to look bad.

Delicious authentic Asian - highly recommended.

Unfortunately got food poisoning from the soups. Soup was my last and first meal of the day. There are better places for ramen in Karlsruhe. Putting the food together is very unhygienic if you think about it. There are four unmarked grippers so the same grippers can be used for raw meat and salad. It is also unclear whether the selection is regularly replaced and the grippers are cleaned.

small snack but nice<3 very very tasty mala thang & lovely staff.

We were here again and really enjoyed the delicious soup. Maybe the ambience isn't that great, but it's authentic and clean. Lots of choices for ingredients and broths that you can choose yourself and then prepare fresh and appetizing! We NEVER had problems with our stomach or digestion, it's not understandable! Of course there are ingredients that the European palate doesn't know, but there's nothing disgusting there either, you should just try it! Thank you for this great soup kitchen, we'll always be happy to come back!

The food is really great and cheap.

The soup was really delicious. You could put together your own dish from a variety of ingredients. I particularly liked the labeling of the individual ingredients - so you knew what you were putting in the bowl. Everything looked very fresh. You can sit in the restaurant or in front of it, but directly on the street. Depending on the amount put together, the soup costs around €10.

Great selection (endless combinations) and delicious soups. There is also an option with less liquid (sesame sauce)

Unhygienic shop! Tongs for selecting ingredients lie unwashed in front of the counter and are used for vegetables as well as raw fish and meat. The broth tastes like old meat. I'm still struggling with nausea and dizziness after a day.

The name soup doesn't deserve it, hot water with any finished powder, inedible, unhygienic, overpriced, one star too much

just didn't want to let us in...

Very delicious food you can choose the exact fresh ingredients you want in your soup. They have many vegan options. Unfortunately the thongs for picking the food are used for everything non vegan as well as well as the boiling pot.... not recommended if you are very strict or have allergies Update they now have thongs for vegan :) however anyone can use them

Exceptionally delicious! The price is totally fair!

Cool concept of self-service, authentic and super tasty soups with a variety of toppings that you choose yourself. The only drawback is the limited space, but with the good food that doesn't matter.

Very tasty, healthy, quick food. Large selection of soups and even larger selection of soup contents. Friendly staff are also happy to help. Card payment possible.

Delicious food and friendly staff, the best place in Karlsruhe!

Best soup to put together yourself. Only the bubble tea is not recommended.

I've been here more than 10 times and I'm disappointed in the current state of the store. The poor quality of the ingredients and the unfriendly attitude of the pink haired cashier is unacceptable. No smiles, no passion, no service commensurate with the increased prices. Menu items such as lotus root and beef dumplings have disappeared, and the storage conditions of the ingredients are also a problem (oil stains and dust on the plates). There are only a few seats and I can't accept waiting for more than 30 minutes without being guided. The deterioration in taste is also noticeable.

The taste is okay and the freshness is average. Even if the exchange rate is high when paying via WeChat, I always get the wrong change when paying in cash (several times, I don’t know if it’s intentional). Then when there are a lot of people, they will come and chase people away. But when you encounter a group of foreigners occupying a seat and chatting after eating, you don’t chase them away. Do you think Chinese people are easy to bully?

Awesome place to eat a very good soup, I’d recommend it 100%

Great noodle soup shop! Self-service buffet, then you choose your supper and toppings. My favorite is the scythe dressing!

This was our second time in the shop and the first time we only had a slight stomach ache and yesterday we went back to treat ourselves to some warm soup. And today we are completely knocked out, chills, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea. Full program! We feel so bad, we can't even get a drink. It's time for the health department to take a look. The food is not stored correctly!!! We're definitely not coming back!

I've known the store for almost 5 years when it first opened. But you have to say that there was a different owner 5 years ago. Nevertheless, I like being here. The service is great and you receive a friendly welcome. The selection isn't that big, which is understandable just because of the size, but there are a lot of Asian choices like mushrooms that aren't exactly cheap. There are enough vegetarian choices for soups, which also taste very tasty. I really enjoy coming here and am very satisfied every time. The best malatang shop in Karlsruhe. For me, all of Germany. Unfortunately the store is always very full, so I recommend moving to create more space. What should be noted is that there should be separate pliers. I don't like using tongs for my vegetarian ingredients where someone has previously removed the meat. There are also Jews and Muslims here who do not eat pork or halal meat. That means they would like to use tongs that are only intended for vegetarian ingredients. I would be happy if it were set up.

Sehr schlechter Service. Der Laden war voller Leute. Ich wollte drinnen essen, aber als ich fragte, ob ich draußen warten solle, sagte die Kellnerin, ich solle zuerst die Zutaten bezahlen und draußen warten. Als das Essen fertig war, brachte sie es nach draußen. Ich sagte nochmal, dass ich drinnen essen möchte, aber sie sagte, dass alle Tische wieder bereits von neuen Gästen besetzt seien. Sie hat keinen neuen Tisch für uns reserviert. Was sollen wir mit der abgekühlten Mala-Tang draußen machen? Ihre Reaktion ist unakzeptabel, und sogar die Zutaten waren überhaupt nicht frisch.

Eins meiner Lieblingsrestaurants in Karlsruhe! Auf den ersten Blick vielleicht etwas ungewöhnlich, aber man bekommt direkt das Gefühl in Asien zu sein.

Kleiner hübscher HotPot Laden mit großer Auswahl und unkompliziertem Zusammenstellen.

Street style Chinese food. My friend took me there. It is basically soup bowl where you have to choose your noodles and other ingredients and then they mix everything up with soup and spices. Spicy and hot, good for winter.

Meine Frau und ich haben das kleine Restaurant zufällig auf den Weg zum Auto entdeckt und sind spontan eingekehrt. Es war super lecker - wir können bestimmt wieder, wenn wir das nächste mal in Karlsruhe sind.

Authentic flavour of Mala Tang. The light spicy version is really not spicy, so if you are looking for more flavour, go for medium spicy

Extrem nettes Service und sehr leckeres Essen

Es gibt hier super leckere und scharfe Nudelsuppen. Großes Plus: eigene Auswahl sämtlicher Zutaten die man in der Suppe haben will! Platztechnisch etwas klein ausgerichtet aber in der Regel findet man mit etwas Wartezeit immer Platz. Kann ich total empfehlen!

Essen ist so preiswert und legendär gut.

Great traditional chinese soups in a tiny setting

Sehr leckeres und günstiges Essen. Authentisch chinesisch und wenn gewünscht auch wirklich scharf... 😋 lecker!

Man kann sich nach Lust und Laune die Suppe selbst zusammenstellen. Wenn man es gerne chinesisch und aromatisch hat, wird man hier glücklich.

A bit too crowded coz it’s really tasty haha lol. My favorite mala tang place in the town! Boba tea is also a wise choice!

Sehr lecker, authentisch und das zu fairen Preisen! Man bekommt eine sehr große, reichhaltige Nudelsuppe mit genügend Fleisch und Gemüse für ~11-13€. Sehr lecker 🤤

Unglaublich gute asiatische Nudelsuppen zu einem günstigen Preis. Ist inzwischen mein Lieblingsrestaurant hier in Karlsruhe.

这个小店有点出乎我的预料，味道太好了！店面虽小，但真的比在国内的麻辣烫味道还好吃！还会再去！

Definitiv mein "Geheimtipp" für Essen in Karlsruhe. Lage und Sitzmöglichkeiten sind nicht fancy, aber das Essen ist im Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis fast unschlagbar. Auch Mitnehmen (sogar mit eigenem Container für die Müllvermeidung) ist möglich. Gehe sehr gerne & oft dorthin.

Super Konzept, sehr schnelle Zubereitung und schmeckt auch sehr gut. Preis ist auch in Ordnung.

I have been to this place multiple times and the food was really good. Also they make it fast. I highly recommend this place. Their spicy food is really spicy.

Super tasty, fast, and you can pick all your ingredients. So awesome!

Quite authentic mala tang place with great price value.

In der kühlen Theke Zutaten aussuchen, zur Kasse geben, auswählen zwischen 6 verschiedenen leckeren Suppen (Knochensuppe ist mild, auch für Kinder geeignet) und toppings wie Knoblauch, Chilli oder Sesam. Und schon ist eins der leckersten Suppengerichte fertig die ich je in Restaurants hatte. Portionen sind durch das eigene aussuchen der Zutaten individuell groß/klein. Wer schnell etwas zu essen möchte das schmeckt ist hier richtig.

Absolut leckere Ramen. Zum anständigen Preis. Geheimtipp für Fans der Asiatischen Gaumenschmäuße. Klein, gemütlich und freundlich. Würde auch 10 Sterne geben.

Schmeckt super! Scharf ist auch wirklich scharf. Habe allerdings nur vegetarisch gegessen, da das Fleisch nicht gekühlt ausliegt. Achtung: man nimmt sich schnell mehr, als man schafft zu essen

The idea and the taste is quite good, but in my opinion the soup has way too much MSG (everythime I finished the noodles, not even drinking the soup, I felt so so SO thirsty). And the food there aren't very fresh either.

Hat sehr satt gemacht. Preiswert

Autentischer Nudelsuppen Laden mit sehr freundlichem Personal! 😊 Es gibt verschiedene Suppen zur auswahl und das was in die Suppe kommt stellt man sich komplett selbst zusammen. Wir hatten komplett unterschiedliche Suppen, können aber nicht sagen welche besser war, denn es war alles ausgezeichnet gut! 5*+ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Essen war lecker. Meine Frau wollte ein Bubbletea hat aber etwas anderes bekommen. Die Kommunikation war nicht so einfach. Trotzdem kommen wir wieder

Tasty and rich. I tried kimchi soup.

菜品种类比较少，而且看着不是很新鲜，腐竹和冷冻肉卷不是特别新鲜（吃了可能不会拉肚子，但是味道有一点点不新鲜了），豆腐长得像豆渣一样。麻辣拌只有麻酱的味道，麻辣烫藤椒口味汤底还勉强过得去。

在德國目前吃到最好吃的麻辣燙，還直接外帶了一包回家吃！之後只要到Karlsruhe 一定必訪！

마라탕 먹으러 갔다왔어요. 원하는 토핑을 담으면 무게에 따라 금액이 정해져요. 보통 1인당 7유로 정도인듯 해요. 맛있었구요. 사장님도 친절해요.

Incredibly tasty mala tang! And so many options for vegetarians, too :-)
