Quick and easy lunch spot! Quite literally a hole in the wall, so don't expect much in terms of ambience or comfort. Luckily one of the two tables outside were empty, so that's where we sat for the full 25-minute duration of our meal. Ordered a spicy chicken dry noodle bowl & cucumber salad. Cucumbers were crunchy and fresh -- a perfect companion to the noods, which were spicy as advertised. Never in my life have I had noodles so... buoyant? Almost borderline crunchy. Verdict's out on if I'd get that type again, but it was good to try. Bok choy, chicken bits, and peanuts were lighter in quantity but spruced up the flavor.

Best wontons I've ever had and incredible noodle soup! The beef was very tender, and the spicy soup is so good ? The people were also very amiable :) I had to get more to bring home after finishing my meal

Noodles were great. Wontons are handmade (they were making them in store when I ate).

Burp Bowl is a complete hole in the wall, but the food is incredibly delicious and authentic. Seriously, it feels like you're stepping into a restaurant in China. I've been numerous times now and my favourites are their beef noodle soup, which has a savoury beef broth and tender chunks of beef, and the sliced beef tripe appetizer, which has notes of sweetness and spiciness.The beef trip noodle soup and pork tongue were also great, but not as good as the beef noodle soup and sliced beef tripe appetizer.I did not like the wontons in chili oil, since it literally just came in a bowl of oil.And if you're a vegetarian, they have a delicious veggie noodle soup, which pairs super well with the chili crisps they have in-house.

Got the beef noodle soup and cucumber salad. Beef noodle soup was decent but kinda needed more seasoning. Hole in the wall take out place

Extremely crowded when I went. Their instestine is super yummy, the noodle itself is ok and the broth is fine. I think ordering the braised meat itself will suffi

The noodles were raw and the chicken was several days old. It was not fresh at all and only had a spicy taste.

Came here on a Saturday night and ordered to go. The restaurant is very small, very much the definition of hole in the wall. There's ~2 tables inside and 2 tables outside, and you sit yourself. On one one of the tables there were open containers of cooked beef in chili oil, which made me concerned about the food quality/sanitation. It seemed directed towards takeout or delivery orders. I ordered the spicy dry mixed beef egg noodle and the chili wonton to share. The food took about 15 minutes and while we waited, the fumes of the spice made me cough. I also heard them use the microwave for something, not sure for what though. The noodles had a decent amount of beef, bok choi, cilantro, and peanuts in a chili sauce. They also added hot chili oil/chili chrisp, which was a nice touch. The noodles were different from traditional noodles, being more snappy than chewy. The wontons were also good, with a thin wrapper and well seasoned filling. It was ~$30 for 2 noodles and the wontons, which is a pretty good deal. Overall, this was a good restaurant but the food out in the open and the microwaved appetizer made me slightly uneasy.

Came here to eat at the store with my friend. So many health hazards and quality issues. Would not recommend for dining in or takeout.- Improper ventilation with water forming on the ceiling and dropping into our food- Plastic shopping bag filled with chunks of beef on the counter for over 1 hour without refrigeration- cook coughing loudly with no mask near stove with food- soup barely had flavor- noodles were overcooked and slimy- beef was gross to the point I couldn’t even eat it because it was chunks of fat- No soy sauce

Tried dry beef noodle with less spicy. The taste is good. Recommend to do take out as the tables are limited in store.
