“ Happy China has been a good spot to stop for me so far, get in the buffet and enjoy the options. Lots of Sushi items, plenty of vegetarian or pescatarian options, quick and easy. It isn't great but it certainly does the job in a good way. Food is fresh, some really good and some ok. I will be back when I need the Chinese buffet fix! ”
“ Overall, I don't understand the negative reviews - Happy China has been a consistently good buffet. Prices have gotten higher over the years, but whose haven't? I can always find all of the items I hope to have on the buffet and they are good! Sometimes it takes a little bit longer for replacement trays to come out if emptied, but nothing excessive. If you need a drink refill staff arrive pretty quickly. Of course I've had items I didn't love, but far more often I genuinely enjoy everything on my plate. I would definitely recommend Happy China! ”
“ Having our annual Kick off to school vacation with our grandson. We decided on Chinese and he had not been to a buffet like this. The signage for the road was clear and there was no issue with parking plenty of. The entrance is double door with a frequent flow of people. We were on line as soon as we went through the second door, but were seated with in minutes. They have a charming bridge type entrance with fish and water fixtures on both sides of. Loved this touch! The tables were rather close together but enough room at our end table for my rather tall husband with long legs. We took our coats off, and a pleasant young h woman asks what we would like for drinks, water all around and one hot tea. Then we were free to go explore. This was organized with some confusion, as apps can be found among entrees and the steamed items were at one station away from items usually found with. After a few trips wandering around, I eventually got a map of. I enjoy peel and eat shrimp and these were good. The sushi area was well stocked with rolls but singular pieces were lacking. Not an issue for me as I can see the chef is preparing. The ginger was a pretty pink which was not appealing as it is known as a white flesh tuber. Fresh and delicious! Then I went for a free fall and dabbled in a few entrees and steamed white rice, which I did not see, as it was not marked. Happened to see someone else using. Some of the entrees were lukewarm to warm and possibly should be checked temperature wise more frequently. Our bellies just about full it was time for dessert. My grandson was in awe that you could choose more then one AND have seconds in the ice cream. Made our hearts happy. The price was very reasonable and staff were all friendly and helpful. My husband and I question why this establishment was only three stars??? People were coming and going the whole time we were there for take-out, or to mention the almost full dining rooms. As close as the tables were we met we felt on top of so they managed the space well. My reason for not giving a 5 star rating would be because we did return our second night as requested by our grandson! This time we were sat at a very awkward table towards the front. Honestly, they should loose it all together, just because you can doesn't mean that you should. The table didn't fit right nor was it balanced. We were all squished into this table and as I mentioned earlier, my husband is 6'6 and had no place to put his feet but in the eislle! I am rolling my eyes! Can't they see this and they put us at the smallest table in the place. Try entrees were a little better, some items were lukewarm and a few hot. Oh and the wanton soup actually has wanting which it did not the evening before. All in all we will be back. It's our grandsons favorite place now. ”
“ I like this place. The majority of the food is very good - the rangoons are to die for, the green beans and veggie dishes are excellent. They also have some Dimsum, always fresh and steamy, as well as many meat and seafood dishes. The sushi is ok - not amazing, but this is a Chinese Buffet - not a Japanese Sushi Bar. The "American" section is good - though the LAST thing I want at a Chinese buffet. It's good if you have bland, picky eaters in your party I suppose. The service is fast, the place is clean , and the value is really good. I enjoy eating here a few times a year. ”
“ Since it has been over a year since I wrote about Happy Garden, and we very recently went back there I thought I would do a quick update. The short version is that I still like it and will keep going back, especially since there are so few Chinese buffets around. I filled one plate and then a partial one for a second trip. The dessert items are a little weak as they often are at these buffets, but the apple pie is tolerable and I found out recently that their soft serve ice cream is better than some I have had from that type of dispensing machine. It makes for an expensive meal, even at the lunch price, but it allows me to surf all of the selections rather than trying to find a lunch combo with just three or four items I like in it. We just think of it as a treat every few months or so. The people have always been friendly also. ”
