Awesome Chinese burger place (they are pretty good) that also serves noodles, dumplings, shumai, boba tea and more. Awesome service (you order at a kiosk) and interior atmosphere is spacious with many tables. Check it out bruh!

Stopped by at around 8:30 PM for some later night takeout snacking: Spicy Cold Rice Noodle - chewy rice noodles with crunchy bean sprouts, shredded cucumber, and fried bean curd. With hot sauce, sesame and peanut sauce. Probably not everyone's cup of tea, but it you like this kind of dish, this version will satisfy that craving. Pork Burger - it's a little unfair because the only other time I have had this was in Taiwan which was probably close to the pinnacle of what this dish could be. That being said, even without the Taiwan reference point, this dish falls flat primarily due to the bread. The inside texture of the bun is like a non-porous English muffin. The outside had no toastiness/char to it. It's always a little perplexing to see the signature dish of a restaurant have no "wow" factor. Maybe we caught them at a bad time when they were near closing.

Braised Pork Rice Bowl / 卤肉饭
Anthony N.

Wanted a quick dinner before heading tot he game at Cap1 Arena. Saw this and had to stop by since I saw they had Chinese Burgers. The Food: Went with the Braised Pork Rice Bowl and the Pork Burger. The rice bowl was delicious. The braised pork was very tender and flavorful. Paired with the rice, onions and the additional chili oil really hit the spot. The Pork Burger was good too, the only thing was the "buns" itself was a little dry/hard for my liking. But the filling was PACKED and delicious. They are pretty generous with their portions here. I love it. The Service: Food came out in a timely manner. Staff were kind and friendly. No complaints at all. The Atmosphere: Plenty of seating inside. Order at the kiosk makes it easy and simple. Pretty spacious and clean inside too! Overall, a solid 4/5. Food was pretty good and the price was fair. I'd definitely come back again.

Piglet Bun

Stopped by here for a quick dinner before an event at the Arena. Turned out to be not so quick because of the amount of orders going out and people trying to get to the same event. Ordering was easy through the kiosk. Ordered Shrimp Shu Mai, BBQ Pork Bao, Pepper Cucumber Salad, Crystal Shrimp Dumplings, Piglet Buns, Traditional Pork Burger, Soup Dumplings, Sea Salt Coffee, and Passion Green Tea. Took a while to come out but again they were slammed due to the event. The shu mai, crystal shrimp, bbq pork bao, and soup dumplings were steamed on the spot, very hot but all pretty solid. The soup dumplings did burst easily though. The cucumber salad was really good. The burger was very filling and had a good amount of spice. The drinks weren't too bad, not too sweet and you can control the sugar. Overall, great spot to stop by especially if you're going to something at the arena.

Spicy pork wontons
Ashlie J.

I was craving comfort food in Chinatown and Bonker's hits the spot. I ordered the Spicy Pork Wontons and the Pickled Cabbage Beef Soup . The wontons were definitely the star of the show! Next time, I'd get the Braised Beef Soup (minus the pickled cabbage). I just needed a few extra veggies that day. Ordering was quick and easy, and they've got a full lineup of bubble teas to pair with your meal... think creamy matcha, brown sugar milk tea, and fruity options for a sweet finish

Braised Pork Rice Bowl / 卤肉饭 and Pork Bun/Burger
Bill Z.

The food was incredible. Such juicy pork in both the rice and the bun. Order at kiosk and a simple seating arrangement. No hassle just good food at a pretty cheap price for its quantity. Worth it for sure!

Almost self serving place, very good Chinese Burger, crispy and saucy, especially for the braised meat burger. We ordered a lot here, giving everything is good and authentic, beef noodle, spicy noodle, dumplings, fried pork and chicken. Cleaning table can be emptied more frequently. Left overs longer time can start to have unpleasant effects.

Spicy wontons
Addy B.

Quick service for eating in or takeout. They have rice bowls, noodle soups and a variety of wontons. I opted for a bowl of spicy wontons and cucumber salad. Both portions were good for the price. Total come out to just under $16.00 The filling of the spicy wontons were maybe a bit dry but the spicy sauce was slightly tingling and good. The cucumbers were fresh and tasty with ciltrano, chopped chilies and a bit sweet.

Drink menu

We only tried the Chinese hamburger. The hamburger was crispy filled with real beef slices, loaded with cilantro, peppers and onions. Self service fast food venue, we ordered on a computer, selected our choices of toppings. Simple and easy. Great place for a quick meal.

Bao
Abigail R.

Soup dumplings. Spicy wontons. I'm in heaven. Super easy to order, the food came out really quickly and it is HOT and FRESH. The bao was good but not my favorite but man those dumpling were stellar.

Dry Hot pot with lamb.

Was in the area and was looking for something good to eat. I saw the spicy wonton soup picture on my feed and I said to myself, "I gotta have it. That's what I want!" Best decision EVER. Was so so good. I wish I had more wontons so that I could figure out what spices I was tasting. Worth having my mouth on fire

Sichuan Cold Noodles /
Julie K.

Delicious and well priced Chinese food!! The pork burger was so moist and delicious. Tender marinated pork, cilantro, onions all with a soft plump bao bun. Love how there are so many food options here! Definitely will come back if i'm in the area. Food comes out super fast. Limited seating buts its chill - fast casual vibe.

Braised Beef Noodles
Scott H.

This no-frills restaurant offers good food! Staying at a nearby hotel, I wanted to grab a quick dinner. I came across this place searching the internet. While known for its "burgers", I went for the Chili Cucumber Salad and the Braised Beef Noodles. The cucumber salad had good flavor, though the chili in it wasn't quite so hot. The noodles were really good! The texture of the noodles was perfect and the broth was delicious... Service was fast and efficient and seating was ample. This seems to be more of a delivery type spot, but I'd recommend dining in because the food was great served fresh!

First time visiting this place after saving it on my list for a while now. Well, let's just say…read morethat it's worth the hype! Advice: sitting outside might be better in the cooler weather because we were being eaten alive by mosquitoes and fighting off flies. I really hope that they consider some type of nature oils near the tables to help guests feel more comfortable outdoors. Also, it would help to get more than one fan. Hospitality: aside from the bugs encounter, I would say that we did not have reservations (they were packed inside) so the hostess was nice enough to accommodate us outdoor. Our waiter, Anthony was a ball of energy and he really understands the dishes and was able to give great recommendations, some of which we plan to try on our next visit. Portions: the dishes are shareable so we only ordered the beef noodles and walnut shrimp and both were more than enough for a party of 2. DRINKS: I ordered the dark and stormy which can best be described as not too sweet and perfect for anyone desiring a well balanced drink. The bourbon smash was also really good. Well balanced with a smoky flavor which I loved. FOOD: Beef noodles- gosh this was so divine! Be warned however, there is a bit of spice to it but nothing that you won't be able to handle. I think the spices paired with the preparation of the noodles and the beef all made this dish memorable. Walnut shrimp- another memorable dish which came with a side of white rice. The shrimps were HUGE! But the flavors on each shrimp paired with that crunchy texture and creamy sauce, spectacular! Safe to say that we enjoyed both dishes and cannot wait to return and reserve indoor tables lol

I don't even know how to describe the energy in this place, but you can just feel it the moment you walk in. The restaurant has a dark aesthetic that gives it such a cool, cozy ambiance. My daughter and I ordered the Dan Dan noodles and spicy wontons. Everything was so filling that we ended up ordering another bowl of the Dan Dan noodles! And honestly, I still crave them. The Dan Dan noodles were SO good. The sauce was the perfect combination of creamy and spicy, and there was a generous amount of minced pork that balanced everything out really well. The wontons paired perfectly with the chili sauce that came with them! They were spicy--my ears turned red and my nose started running--but I literally could not stop going back for another bite. Even the wontons alone were incredibly filling. I don't live anywhere near this place, and I genuinely wish I did. I traveled pretty far to get here, and I'd absolutely do it again. This was one of those meals that stays on your mind long after you've left!

It was perfectly crispy, light, and flavorful--both my husband and I really enjoyed it. The curry chicken was decent. My husband loved it, but I thought it was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't particularly memorable either. As for the stir-fried noodles, they were average and didn't leave much of an impression. Unfortunately, what really changed our overall experience wasn't the food--it was the service at the end of the meal. When it was time to pay, my husband used his card but intended to leave the tip in cash. As the waitress was processing the payment, she said, "You know the tip is not included." It wasn't what she said, but how she said it. It came across as if she was demanding a tip rather than providing the kind of service that would naturally earn one. The interaction left us feeling uncomfortable and ended the meal on a disappointing note. Because of that experience, I can't recommend this restaurant. Chinatown has plenty of other restaurants that offer not only better food but also friendlier, more welcoming service.

We were given these two cans of Liquid Death, instead of regular glasses of water ( just cans and empty glass cups to serve ourselves the water?? No ice and with no clarifying questions from the server; she took our order. The food was as expected and we were here on a Sunday. I'm not someone who makes a fickle on pricing or service. But i pay attention to things like that and did not enjoy me and my friend paying $12 for water altogether before even getting our orders in. Just makes me not want to come back because other sections had glasses of water not cans ...... Anyways we ordered 2 Tonkotsu Ramen. 2 Bao buns. And the ribs and the spring rolls. On a weekday it's a steal but other than that I'll just order to go going forward.

A friend who is a novice to this type of cuisine, was interested in sampling a variety of Asian style dumplings, and this place definitely fits that description. The spot can get busy during the prime time 6-8pm dining segment, so I'd recommend making reservations to guarantee seating. Located in the heart of Arlington at the intersection of Wilson and Clarendon Blvd, parking can be a challenge but if you're willing to walk, there is usually availability in the surrounding neighborhoods. The interior is beautifully decorated. Tile flooring is complimented by blonde hardwood ceiling and wall accent pieces, while bamboo lighting fixtures provide soft illumination. The menu is rather extensive and runs the gamut from soup based, fried, and steamed dumplings. There are also appetizers such as scallion pancakes, tofu with perserved duck eggs, and dim sum ...but we decided to stick with the more traditional style steamed dumplings. A pot of hot jasmine tea arrived to share and we appreciated the refills of hot water through out the meal. Pork soup dumplings - or xiaolongbao (XLB) - arrived first and I provided a brief primer as to how to enjoy this dish. XLB are delicate steamed dumplings filled with seasoned pork and a rich, savory broth that bursts with flavor when you take a bite. My recommendation was to nibble off a corner, and then allow the contained broth to drain into the soup spoon. If you bite directly into the dumpling first, it will likely make a big mess as soup squirts everywhere. We agreed that the pork broth was extremely flavorful and not too salty. I also suggested making a dipping sauce of the black vinegar, chili oil, and just a tiny splash of soy sauce. Dipping the XLB into the sauce amped up the spice and enhanced the flavor. The other two dumplings arrived a few minutes later. Of the two, the chicken and shitake was preferred. Seasoned chicken and earthy shiitake mushrooms are mixed and then steamed to bring out an umami-rich flavor. This was quite good. I grew up eating this type of pork/cabbage dumpling, so while it was solid, to me, it was quite "boring." The pork dumplings needed the dipping sauce for sure. Service was fine. Dirty plates were removed when appropriate while water glasses and the tea pot refilled when necessary. My only observation, and not a complaint, is that I can understand why some reviews say this place is "expensive." I don't necessarily concur with that assessment since I think the food is quality. However, paying $11-$15 for a plate of 5-8 dumplings can add up quickly. Still, for a restaurant where a diner can try a variety of different dumplings in one spot, I think the prices are reasonable. Dinner for two adults - a pot of tea and three entrees - with tax and tip came to about $61.
