[Ueno] Li Xiaoqi Malatang Ueno Opens October 1!
On October 1, 2026, Li Xiaoqi Malatang Ueno, a Chinese and Sichuan restaurant, opened in the Ueno area.
The restaurant is at 4-2-5 Ueno, Taito-ku, Tokyo, and occupies two floors, the 1st and 2nd. It is just 69m from Ueno-okachimachi Station, so it is easy to find as soon as you get off the train. It is a handy option for people working in the Ueno and Okachimachi area looking for lunch, or for a meal after work or shopping.
The restaurant serves Chinese and Sichuan cuisine. Malatang, the dish in the restaurant's name, takes its name from "ma" (numbing spiciness) and "la" (hot spiciness), two hallmarks of Sichuan cooking. If you want to try the heat and numbing sensation of Sichuan food, this is a place to keep in mind.
The budget is ¥1,000–¥1,999 for both lunch and dinner. With the same price range at lunch and dinner, and meals for around ¥1,000, it is an easy place to drop by.
Ueno has a large number of restaurants, and being just 69m from the station is a big plus. Because the budget is the same at lunch and dinner, it is convenient at any time of day.
Opening hours, regular holidays and menu details have not yet been announced. It is a good idea to check the latest information before visiting.
