Review Summary

Mala Express is described as a hidden gem in the west island with hearty portions and authentic Sichuan flavors. The dan dan noodles are noted for a homemade feel, though some would like more ground meat and cucumber. The spicy wonton soup is warm and comforting, with bok choy adding a nice touch. Dishes are generously portioned, often enough for two. Spice tolerance is discussed before ordering, and although medium is sometimes too spicy for some, mild versions still deliver heat. Favorites mentioned include ganew noodles and beef soup with rice noodles. The service is described as friendly and patient, with the staff taking time to explain dishes, and the restaurant is noted as clean. Overall, Mala Express is seen as a reliable lunch spot or quick dinner option with reasonable prices and the potential to return for more.

Our favorite Chinese noodles in the west island. I don't understand the negative reviews. The noodles are so tasty & food is authentic. The owner is such a sweetheart too & you can tell works very hard. A great lunch spot or quick dinner with reasonable prices. I've been here over 5 times & will keep coming back. My favorite are the ganew noodles & beef soup with rice noodles.

I ordered from here for the best first time, It is unlike any Chinese restaurant I've been to, super authentic, very very tasty, this is my new go to... Just to add, I find the prices to be very reasonable, especially considering the quality & flavor.

I tried this place out with my wife & 2 kids (ages 3 & 6) after reading the great reviews.
The food was super tasty, quickly served & very reasonably priced. Even my kids loved it
The service was friendly & prompt.
The decor is very simple & unassuming. I wouldn't say there is much ambiance in the place, but it's very clean. I'll take clean & boring over fancy & dirty any day!
We will definitely make this place one of our regular dinner spots.

For what it is, as in authentic Chinese food, i have no gauge to rate, but the food was simple & tasty. True it is not washed down with Canadian flavors so to say, so it is more for my palette to adjust vs the other way.
