Ma Lu Bian Bian 马路边边 Hot Pot

Discovered this Chengdu skewers hot pot spot. Having been to Chengdu, this place is a real deal. Both the numb-and-spicy broth and the peppery pork stomach soup base are truly authentic. The server told me they made the soup base daily. We had quite a few spoonful of the peppery soup before we started cooking the food and it was really tasty. The duck blood curd was silky and a rare find in Orlando. The beef skewers were full of flavor, and I loved the frozen tofu soaking up the spicy broth. We also ordered the crispy fried pork bites. They were crunchy and went well with the chili flake powder. The side dishes were equally good. Can’t stop eating the crunchy peanuts and the chips. The sauce station offered a variety of condiments. Adequate for the hot pot skewers. Will definitely

Best skewer hot pot, no doubt. Probably the only authentic spicy hot pot in Orlando. There are plenty of non-spicy broths if you can’t handle spicy. Must try the brown sugar jelly with sesame, fruit, and hawthorn in it. So good!

Absolutely authentic Chengdu flavor right here in Orlando! Every dish tastes just like home — bold, spicy, and full of depth. The service was attentive and friendly, and the environment is clean and cozy. Lots of options for sauces and side dishes too — you’ll definitely leave full and satisfied. Highly recommend for anyone craving real Sichuan street-style food!

Pretty authentic Chengdu style cuisine and the ingredients are pretty fresh. If you are craving for something spicy and delicious, this is the place you should come. Highly recommended!

Wanted to try and a new hot pot place that was not a buffet, so I found this place on Colonial. Customer Service- The service was excellent. I went in at noon and was the first customer. The server greeted me immediately, explained everything in really great detail, and made great recommendations. Food- I ordered 2 broths the spicy beef butter and pork bone. Both were delicious. The spicy one was exceptional ! There are skewers of meat and limited vegetables you can pick from. A lot of the meats do have more than 1 skewer attached, so be aware of the pricing. The skewers can add up. The best items I had here were the beef items. Everything else was nothing special. Quality/Value- Each skewer was .35 , small plates-3.99, and sauce bar 2.99. I think this restaurant really needs to reeva
