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!

Inside

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
Ryan C.

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!

Front desk

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
Min Z.

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.
Riley M.

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!

Honestly we were so pleasantly surprised by how good the burgers are! I had the Capital Burger which had such incredible flavor and the burger itself is thick and juicy. Despite having just had a big dinner somewhere else, as I write this, my mouth is watering. My daughter had the wild mushrooms burger and she loved it -- the aioli had the perfect tang to go with the mushroom and Swiss, both burgers were cooked perfectly medium as requested. The old fashioned was just your typical old fashioned with a slice of candied bacon attached to the outside of the glass. We were hoping for something smokier and a little different but it was still a very good Old Fashioned. We shared the chocolate mousse and it was perfection. Yum!

I had the blue cheese and black truffle cheeseburger, with bacon, and it was good. . Very good. I could not identify or really pinpoint where the black truffles came in, but the beef was well seasoned. The additions were a dollar too expensive across the board so I skipped those. The fries were sort of stereotypical, nothing really fancy about those. I debated about having the truffle fries, but didn't really wanna pay the extra three dollars. Bless my server, he didn't know what black truffles were, either. The Reesie's peanut butter cup Skrewball milkshake was quite good. Good use of Skrewball. Could've done with a little more alcohol, but what a great combination. Good taste. Vanilla ice cream and peanut butter all the way through. My only .. concern.. were the pickles. There's this NoVA chain restaurant that serves POPCORN before the meal, which I think has to be the most depressing, unappetizing, lazy and cheap way to start a meal. Capital Burger servers sliced sweet pickles in a jar. That.. is a step up from popcorn, but not by much... If I was in the mood for a burger and boozy milkshake, this would be on the list, but not my first choice.

I decided to stop in at Ghostburger for lunch to escape the crowds at the DC Convention Center…read moreduring the book festival and apparently Ghostburger didn't get the memo! They were seriously understaffed, and with a line out the door, the place was BUSY. That said, the staff was doing their best to keep up with the constant flow of customers. I was able to grab a table, and interestingly enough, ordering through DoorDash was much faster than ordering directly through the cashier. I ordered the Barbie Girl burger, which was pretty good overall, although it arrived a little soggy. The onion rings were definitely overcooked and greasy, but they still had decent flavor. Since I arrived around happy hour, I grabbed a glass of wine and enjoyed my lunch. Considering how slammed they were, the servers actually did a decent job. They were running around like crazy but remained friendly and attentive when they could. I definitely want to give Ghostburger another try when they're properly staffed and it's not quite as chaotic. I have a feeling the experience, and my burger, will be much better under normal circumstances! Worth another visit.

The trick is to try to find parking in the neighborhood if you can. Thanks so much!

From start to finish, I have absolutely no negative feedback at all. 1. The Food Everything we ordered was completely divine! Here's the rundown: -Sandwiches: My husband got a Bogan Bun. My son a Mumbo Bun chicken sandwich and listen, he didn't speak a single word the entire meal because he was enjoying it so much! I ordered the Lucky Bun made with an Impossible patty. It was everything! Best I've had at a restaurant! In fact, my son, who loves beef burgers and claims he doesn't like plant based meat, ended up eating the rest of my burger! He tore that plant based meat DOWN! -Thick cut chips & Queso: The waiter let us know that their portion of fries (chips) could easily feed 3 to 4 people. He was not lying at all. The three of us shared one basket. I don't know if the sandwiches or the fries stole the show. These fries were seasoned to absolute perfection!!! SERIOUSLY! Not the typical sprinkle on top, but seasoned on every single side like someone picked up each fry and hand sprinkled each fry. Think I'm fibbing look at my pic. We ordered a side of queso for dipping and it was so good I wish I had some right now. If you're reading, hear me out Lucky Bun....add tortilla chips and queso to the menu please!!!! I would buy it just to scoop up that delicious cheese. -The Garlic Aioli: why am I highlighting a condiment???? Because!! lol!! It wasn't just standard mayo mixed with garlic powder. You could tell someone actually finely minced fresh garlic and herbs into it. It was so good I couldn't decide whether to dip my fries in the aioli or the queso! So that's why it's in my review! 2. Service The service was exceptional. There was no wait time at all. We walked straight in and were seated immediately. The food came out extremely fast which surprised us since we all ordered completely different proteins. They were speedy but all of our food arrived perfectly warm. The host, a slim gentleman, and our waitress, a lovely young lady rockin locs, were both incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. I'm telling you good service makes the food even better! 3. Restaurant Look and Seating The inside of the restaurant is fairly small, but they maximized the space with multiple tables and a full service bar. They also have outdoor dining and a front waiting area with outdoor furniture, which would be perfect for a nice summer day. You don't even have to ask me because you already know the answer. YES!!! The next time I am in DC, I will specifically make time to go there. Even if I'm not staying in the immediate area, I would gladly take an Uber just to eat here again and so will my family! Make sure you get there too!

Three of our party of seven arrived at 4:21 PM for a 4:30 PM. reservation, an additional three arrived at 4:28 PM. The final person was parking the car. After confirming our reservation, the person at the door who greeted us stated - "I can give you a table, but four of you will need to squeeze  together on the bench". She walked the three of us past four empty tables to the back of the restaurant directly across from the bathrooms. When asked if we could be moved further up to the empty tables that she had walked past - her response was " let me check and see if they are available - she came back with " I have a party of five who have a 5:30 PM reservation so I can not give you those seats".  While we looked at each other in disbelief - her next remark was- " you will need to get up at 5:30 PM, because I will need those tables for the walk ins that we are expecting for the Boo at the Zoo event (interestingly enough -  this event was happening at the Smithsonian National Zoo across the street - the exact same event that my party was ticketed to attend after our meal - which we had reserved at their restaurant)". After the "you will need to get up" remark - which she later said that she did not make - we decided that we had been disrespected enough and left the restaurant. On my way out of the door - I informed her that in the well over 40 years that I had been making reservations for dinner ( and never failing to keep my end of the agreement with the restaurant by showing up on time, being courteous to the staff, and doing my best to be an all-around good customer )- I had never experienced someone telling me that I would need to "get up and leave at 5:30 PM".  This is when she said, " I did not say that" ( with two of her co-workers - who had not been present when she made the remark )- standing next to her. I walked out of the restaurant- and asked the two adults who had walked in with me if they had heard what she said - and they both heard the same nasty remark. After we walked out - she promptly cancelled the reservation. I am writing this review so that the record can be set straight - I did not just cancel the reservation at 4:30 PM. We were all but driven away. This was shameful, and I hope that this behavior will not betolerated by the management.

Some folks next to me got tacos, which were smaller than I expected, but I know they were so good. There are burgers, tacos, and much more to explore next time, and I can't wait! Oh, their drinks definitely include Ethiopian spices.. how creative! And they taste great. Definitely returning.

You can get a single, double, or triple patty burger and add whatever toppings to it too. The jalapeño burger was the star of the show, it had a such a nice and spicy kick to it. I wasn't expecting much but this burger had HEAT! Another favorite was the Juicy Lucy. It was packed with grilled onions and the patty was stuffed with cheddar cheese.
