M was craving some Taiwanese noodle soup so I went to my trusty Van adviser and was told to check out Wang’s Beef Noodle House. It’s located right beside a VPL branch. Hours are long and consistent. We dropped in on a late Wednesday evening (around 9:00pm) and the place was about a third full. No frills but it’s clean and with lots of seating. Service is fast and efficient; I liked how they came back several times to fill up our tea cups.
Amazing and consistent every time. We are always seated promptly and the service is on point and friendly! I always get the spicy beef brisket noodle soup. The soup is concentrated, deep, rich and delicious in flavour. it tastes like its been simmering away for hours. The noodles are chewy and the perfect al dente. Not sure if they make them but they taste home made. The beef is SO soft and tastes like its been sous vide! Just so tender, fall apart and flavourful. It's always a mind blowing experience every time. The last time we went we also ordered the salt and peppery fried chicken. I've had this at many restaurants and they don't compare. Their's is hot, fresh, so juicy and the batter is light and crunchy. Also ordered the fried squid. Squid is tender and the batter is again light and crunchy. I dont know how they do it, but i certainly hope it never changes.. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
Wang's Taiwan Beef Noodle House 王記台灣牛肉麵 is located on Granville Street and West 68th Avenue at the Marpole area in Vancouver.
An authentic Taiwanese beef noodle house. I love their noodles after trying the Dan Dan Noodle 四川擔擔麵. You can choose to pick any kind of noodles you want, and I have tried the thick noodle. It was nice and bouncy. Delicious ! 😋

The dan dan noodles are very good here. The sauce is rich and creamy, with the consistency being just right. It's liquid enough for you to mix with the noodles, and viscous enough to stick on the noodles. The noodles too, so good. Nice and thick, bouncy.
The cold cucumbers are well seasoned and tasted pretty darn good too. It has the noticeable flavours of chilli and and sesame. Less noticeably garlic and vinegar. My friends who came all said that these are their now fave cucumbers. However, I prefer the cold cucumbers at Lao Shan Dong because they are much crispier, my preferred texture. I wouldn't describe the cucumbers here as crispy.
My friends all had the n.1 beef noodle, and the one friend who loved eating at the Cambie location (now closed) mentioned that the soup here wasn't as great. That's up to debate.
Came here for a late dinner around 9:30pm. Found out that they close at 11:30pm on Tuesday nights, which is pretty late for that area. Perfect for an after-movie bite.
Service was also attentive, as our tea was always refilled. There were about three or four other tables dining in when we were there. The place seems to be a popular takeout option too.
I would come here again, if just for their dan dan noodle. Though, still gotta compare that beef noodle!

Wang’s Taiwan Beef Noodle House Review
I have traveled to 20 countries around the world. I been to Taiwan, China and Hong Kong. I been to places where Minnan or Hokien People live like Xiamen, Fukien Province in China. My Family comes from the Philippines. I am a Chinese-Filipino who like in Vancouver for a long time. Wang’s Taiwan Beef Noodle House a little different from the food I ate in Taipei. The food in this restaurant is a little different from the food I ate in Xiamen. Hokien Food in different from Taiwanese food. There is a different taste in the food from Chinese food in Hong Kong, in Fukien Province, in Guangdong Province and in Taiwan.
I go to this place time to time only, I enjoy the food that have more spices in it then dishes with less spice in it. I like the friendly staff. The place is very clean and the food is freshly cooked. The prices are not very expensive, but not cheap for noodle soup. The food you eat is not like the one a person would eat from a fast food place. If you are in a rush go to another restaurant and be careful if you order spicy hot.
That all for now.

Wang’s Taiwan Beef Noodle House has been one of the long standing restaurants in the Marpole area. Located at Granville and West 68th, Wang’s serves customers 7 days a week from morning till late night (9 am – 11 pm). They also have a second location near Cambie and 16th. When the weather cooled off this week, I decided to give their Marpole location a try as I was in the mood for something hearty.

Wang’s Taiwan Beef Noodle House has been around for a while. It is located right beside the Vancouver Public Library on Granville St. It’s been at least three years since I’ve visited this restaurant, but nothing much has changed. There is still that back alley parking lot that is tricky to maneuver in and out. The restaurant itself has been slightly renovated (I think). It is just clean enough, and spacious enough for family/casual dining; nothing more, nothing less.
I personally love beef noodles because they are inexpensive, filling, hearty, and (probably) healthy. If you are a fan of Vietnamese pho, then chances are you will love Taiwanese beef noodle as well.
Looking at their menu, they offered a comprehensive list of noodles with varying broths and toppings (meats and cuts). Small bowls are around $8.50; whereas, large bowls are around $10.50. Tonight we ordered two small beef noodles:
Braised Beef Brisket & Tendon Noodle/紅燒半筋半肉麵 ($8.50)
Broth: Rich in beef flavour with a hint of spiciness. It is a little bit on the salty side, but still very satisfying to consume on a winter night.
Noodles: We chose the wide noodles (you may also pick thin noodles or vermicelli). To borrow a Chinese term, the noodles were very “Q”. In other words, they were firm to the bite, but also containing enough “bounce”.
Toppings: Tendons were very good, as they were thoroughly cooked. They were very soft, and have absorbed all the flavours from the broth. On the other hand, the briskets were so-so. They weren’t chewy or anything, but just a bit lackluster. Finally, the pickled mustard greens were a welcoming touch, as they cut the richness of the broth.
Clear Stewed Beef Noodle Soup/清燉牛肉麵($8.50)
Someone once told me that if a restaurant is willing to serve clear stewed beef noodle soup, that means they have enough confidence in their ingredients and cooking techniques.
Broth: Technically, this was more of a regular beef noodle soup without the braising (紅燒) seasonings. The clear stewed beef noodle soups I’ve had in other places had much purer/clearer broths (almost like consomme, if you will). This one wasn’t bad, it was just a bit murky. Without the stronger seasonings, the herbal tastes were more pronounced. I had a lingering aftertaste in my mouth for a couple of hours after eating.
Noodles: Same as above.
Toppings: Beef briskets were flavourful, and tender. I’m not sure why this batch was better than the one in the other bowl.
