Happy Garden Restaurant

39$ for 5 chicken wings , 6 half sticks of beef teriyaki and 6 dumplings. The beef is burnt, the chicken is burnt and way overcooked and so dry. I'm disappointed they served this take out to me like this . The most I've ever paid for this amount of Chinese food and I think it's the worst I've ever had. The dumplings were good at least. Bathroom was really gross too. Toilet paper everywhere . And the place has just opened.

Sayonara Happy Garden ! Being a former resident of this town, we often ordered take out from here. The food was tasty, the portions were good. Food quality and prices were also very good. However, our visit on 1/8/25 was a visit of moderate disappointment! Having stopped here for a dinner on our way home, my wife and I were looking forward to having the great meals we previously ordered, as take out, here many times before. Sad to say, but this turned out to be our last visit to Happy Gardens. I should have picked up on the lack of customer vehicles as we entered the parking lot. But it was of no real concern at that time. Then, the fact that bar seats were all occupied. And that no customers at the available dining tables. Also, no customer(s) waiting to pick up their takeout orders as in my past visits there. My dinner of Chicken/Broccoli and Fried Rice was lukewarm when delivered to our table. I had to personally return my plate to the staff at the cash register to have it reheated to the proper temperature. I also informed this person of my displeasure of how this meal was given to me. at such a low temperature. I also had to ask for salt/pepper/soy sauce as there were none on any of the tables surrounding us. Several minutes later. My meal was delivered hot as it should have been the first time. All seemed to be going well until I began getting to the bottom serving of food on my plate. I excused a couple of the pieces of chicken that had some fat on them, but as I ate more, I came across more fat on the remaining chicken. The broccoli floret tips were cooked and tasty. The stalks needed to be steamed/cooked more.

We ordered out so I don’t actually know the atmosphere or service in the building. However , the take out we got was soooo good we got a pupu platter and I couldn’t stop talking about it . Some places just do it right and some places just do it sub par . I know that may depend on the cooks. But the crab Rangoons were great, the wings, the lomein , the beef teriyaki, even the egg rolls that my boyfriend and I aren’t usually super fond of anyways were good. I hope our next visit will be just as good!

The last few times we've been there the food quality has definitely gone down. Items like shrimp lo mein did not taste great, boneless spare ribs were burnt and dry (didn't know there were cooked on a grill). Also good is rarely onn-time. Now I understand as I'm in the restaurant business, holiday seasons are tough but we've been coming for over 3 years and you set a high bar. Please please do not give us reasons NOT to order from you. We used to love your food. Not so much any more.

It's open mic night I guess? There's a live performer in their bar right now and that's actually kinda cool. They support the local talent no matter their skill level and I find that very endearing.(more places should do that) The food was good, the pan fried noodles could have been crispier, so if you order that and like them really crispy, maybe tell them that. The sesame chicken and sweet and sour chicken was pretty good. They refilled our drinks without us asking and my hot tea was very strong and the exact temperature it needed to be. Great because it was pouring rain outside. They gave us an extra fortune cookie, lucky!
