Yes I visited them yesterday and as I entered there were no one inside. Of course the tables and chairs looked clean because of no customers?? I give the lady taking my order a 7 out of 10 because she took my order but I would have spent more money if she didn't act like she was ready for me to go. Oh well, could have been a long day, but still have to treat customers until you close the restaurant. Ok, after all of that I decided on my own for the sweet and sour chicken with 2 egg rolls. I asked if she could ask the chef if they could mix the sauce with the chicken and quickly she said no!!! I couldn't understand because you cook a dish with orange chicken and it's not a difference. That's the way I fix mine at home. Oh and the egg rolls were nasty with nothing but cabbage inside when I ordered pork ?? So will I go back?? Hmmm Papa chef. I give them a 7.1 out of 10 .. check them out and lmk read more

I've been a loyal customer at Happi Wok for years, spending hundreds of dollars and always supporting their business. But one bad day changed everything. I called the restaurant while standing inside--yes, inside--just to watch the staff ignore my calls and then blame it on a "bad phone line." When they finally picked up, they hung up immediately. No apology, no explanation, just blatant rudeness. It's shocking how quickly they turned their back on a regular customer. If you value basic respect and decent service, don't waste your time or energy here. There are plenty of other places that treat people with kindness and professionalism. Happi Wok clearly isn't one of them. read more

Close by my place, chicken broccoli and egg roll my usual choice and can't complain, tasty overall at a good price. Polite staff too read more

The food is good and exceeded my expectations. I got the Chicken cashew lunch special and genuinely enjoyed the flavors, textures, and quantity. My spouse enjoyed the Chicken w/black bean sauce. We didn't care for the Wonton soup; the Wonton wrapper was incredibly thick, making it hard to enjoy. Knowing about the Wonton soup, we will return but will not be ordering any Wonton dishes. read more

food was horrible we order the combo plate general two chicken with pork fried rice it was so nasty we threw the whole meal out, order fry dumpling and they gave us steams. veg lomein was nastier. Very disappointing read more

Great food for a good price. Not from Tampa, but the food tasted as good as the little local spot back home. Would order takeout from here again if i'm ever in the area! read more

For our first meal while starting our mini vacay in Tampa, we chose to order delivery from Happi Wok for lunch while doing absolutely nothing at the pool. When the food arrived, it was piping hot and the weight of the bag was close to 5 - 6 lbs. We ordered the pepper steak with onion, General Tso's chicken and black pepper chicken. Two with pork fried rice and the other with steamed rice. When it comes to ordering Chinese food from anywhere, most will be on a similar level in regards to taste, portion and value. Most is acceptable and "good". Happi Wok, though? Solid, solid Chinese food. The chunks of chicken were fresh and tasted like cubed-cut chicken from the bird. The veggies were crisp (carrots may have been a little al dente) and the sauces were well-balanced in flavor and sodium content. Aside from the carrots needing to be cooked a little longer, I would have also loved a little more black pepper on the chicken, but still...adequate. If we had Happi Wok in Wilmington, NC, it would probably be my new, first choice when ordering Chinese food. But they're here in Tampa instead and if you're from out of town, this place is a very nice option to order your quick and easy meal(s) from. SCORE: 4.5 STARS read more

HOT AND SPICY. Happi Wok know how to turn up the heat for the dish. I mean real heat in the spiciness. Other than than their regular American menu, the have the Chinese menu for the Szechuan cuisine. Szechuan people in China eat really hot food. If you don't know how to order from Chinese menu, bring a friend that can read this menu. I would recommend their beef noodle. This is best dish in this restaurant and it is dish no. 93 in the Chinese menu. It come with pickle veggie and cube beef. The soup base is a bit spicy but I think you can handle it. We have the red pepper chicken (no 14), the the husband and wife beef lung and tripe (no 44) and the sweet vinegar rib (no 40). I like the pepper chicken. Service is good. Food in good value. This is a gem for the Chinese USF student who live around there. If you want to try it out may be invite me. read more

Happi Wok - yum - Chinese Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I've been eating at Happi Wok for over 4 years now since I've moved to the area for college. My first day I was confused and not sure what to order. I have a severe shellfish allergy and I was reluctant to order most of the meals they had on the menu, but I was badly craving some pork fried rice and boneless ribs. The lady running the counter immediately noticed that I was a new customer and proceeded to show me their lunch special which for 5.99 included rice, meat and a soda. To this day, 4 years later I still get the same order. I walk in a few times a month and they immediately recognize me and the same order I always get. Happi Wok looks like nothing more than a hole in the wall, but their service and food quality has been consistent over the years. They're friendly, and are always willing to meet the customers needs including substituting menu items and assisting the elderly with seating. I recommend any of their fried rice dishes, and they do a phenomenal job with their dumplings. Keep it up Happi Wok! read more

Worst food I've ever had. Rice was dry and flavorless, the chicken had no flavor either. Did they even season anything? Waste of money. read more

Happi Wok - House fried rice and fried chicken. - Chinese Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I came here and the location is convenient! The food was delicious and AMAZING for the price !! I work as a server in asian cuisine and i was SO excited to see gyoza 8 for $5!!! Again the price for food and quality is really amazing, i got lo mein , gyoza, and shrimp curry and it was all so delicious!! Would definitely recommend! I will say my shrimp curry was 3 shrimp and mostly vegetable mix which i wasn't expecting, but o well ! Definitely check this place out :) If you order in-store you can walk around the strip while waiting, which is nice :) read more

Ordered Egg Foo Young, they shorted us a patty because we asked for fried rice. Charged us for extra Duck sauce. Most importantly rude and arrogant. Never again! read more

This is an unfancy strip mall Chinese place with tables if you want to eat in. The Chinese fare looks pretty standard apart from a special menu that's in Mandarin. I don't speak Mandarin or read it, so ordering off this menu was a challenge for me, but the dishes we had: ginger flounder, beef noodle soup and a pork belly dish were quite goo (pork belly is fatty as is to be expected..). This food was 4 star quite good and interesting but ordering would be a challenge unless you are with a Mandarin speaker and the decor and area are modest so I'm going with 4 stars. China Yuan or ABC Seafood nearby would are better for me. read more

Came here with a friend a while ago and now I'm thinking of their food again and my mouth is watering. Being Chinese, I can tell everyone this place is really authentic, at least for the spicy dishes we ordered last time. It goes far beyond General Tsao's Chicken or Bourbon Chicken -- the Americanized dishes. Their spicy food is the best. If you don't understand Mandarin, show these names to the ladies there: 回锅肉 (pork and scallion, my to-go dish), 辣子鸡 ( spicy chicken with potato and peppers as I remember, very savory), 水煮牛肉/鱼 (spicy beef / fish in spicy soup with vegetable-- the very famous spicy dish in China. Be prepared for lots of spice and oil. But so good!) Happy eating! read more

This is my first time here and tip for those you that enjoy authentic Chinese food- ask for their Chinese menu! I'm glad I had a picture. However, I'm sorry I at my food before thinking of taking a picture. But what I had was very good. I will be back and will take more pictures and get the name of what I had. But take my word for it, definitely worth it. read more

This place offers authentic spicy Sichuan Chinese cuisine. There are 111 dishes in the Chinese menu including stir fry meat, veget, fish , noodle, soup etc, price range from 7 to 11.50. So it's quite affordable. I ordered a chili chicken stir fry, a pork rib stir fry to go. 2 boxes of steam rice were included. The big fire stir fry aroma made the dishes smell so good. The chicken was so spicily delicious. The rib with potato tasted sweet and sour and was also very tasty. The portion was general . Anyone like spicy Chinese food will fall in love with their dishes. The sitting area wasn't fancy but look clean and organized. Service was friendly and fast. read more

Normally I would not eat at one of these greasy hole in the wall take out Chinese places in a million years, BUT I did it just this once to be a good sport for a relative who wanted me to grab take out for dinner. I called ahead to order pork spare ribs, won ton soup and a dish of shrimp egg foo young to go. While on the phone, the lady taking my order sounded huffy and snappy. Not sure if it was just a language barrier issue going on or if she was actually aggravated with my questions about the menu and item sizes, but it rubbed me the wrong way for some reason. Regardless, I ordered any way and was told it'd be ready in 15 minutes. When I arrived 5 minutes later, sure enough it was all ready to go. HMM, awfully quick, eh? Inside, the environment is typical hole in the wall strip plaza Chinese: outdated, grubby, minimal seating, lack of cleanliness. Oh boy. When I got my food and asked for an extra empty soup bowl to go, they charged me for it. After spending $20 on sub-par chinese food, they still charged me for a bowl worth 5 cents? OOOOOk then .... So when I took my food back home and gave it a shot, it was pretty much what I expected: not all that great. The soup broth was very dark yellow and salty. There were no little pork strips like most chinese places usually include. The pork spare ribs were probably the best items, although they were messy to eat with a ton of sauce on top, the meat and taste itself was not bad. The shrimp egg foo young was not something i even wanted to try and my relative that did eat it said it was just "ok". Overall i was definitely not impressed with this place and likely would not come back again, at least not if it's up to me next time! read more

This place is consistently delicious. Special medicinal chicken soup. Authentic Chinese menu and the coconut shrimp is bomb! Generous servings. Weekly stop. read more

Based on my first time eating here I would totally give this place a 5/5 rating. The lo mein was some of the best I've ever had. But the other times I've ordered here it was either okay or not really good. On top of their food not being very consistent, their customer service is lacking. I've called ahead twice and when they answer the phone all you get is a "yeah?" So if you're looking for a decent Chinese place - keep looking. read more

Cheated me on my order of Garlic Shrimp & Broccoli by giving me lunch portion vs dinner portion I paid for snd did not include the extra shrimp I also ordered snd paid for, tried to call to get an adjustment, the woman who originally took my order hung up on me. Totally unprofessional and extremely poor customer service. I'd give no stars if I could! read more

Wanted to try some authentic Chinese food for the first time. Didn't have a friend with me who speaks Mandarin or has idea about the food to order. Went ahead and told the person at the counter that it's my first time at a Chinese joint, and asked if she has any recommendations, but it didn't work out. So, tried the chicken fried rice. After adding some salt and pepper, the fried rice tasted okay. Nothing bad, nothing great as well. Might go again, perhaps with a Chinese friend. read more

I'm conflicted. The food is amazing and the best I've had since coming to Tampa, thus 2 stars. However the service is rude, rude rude (1 star). I was dealing with the rude. Then, I sat and waited for my food and the place is full of filth and grime in the lobby,dining area. im afraid of what it looks like in the back. I don't think I can return now. It makes me sad bc the food is great...however I'm not confident about the cleanliness of the food prep.I went to the inspections website to do my research bc they did NOT post the inspection grade in the window.My findings were confirmed. I will never return, I threw my food out. Go see for yourself. https://www.myfloridalicense.com/inspectionDetail.asp?InspVisitID=6260895&id=2882625 read more

I'm the type of guy who sticks to one Chinese restaurant due to the fact of not all restaurants making their food as equally good. Every restaurant makes there's different in their own way. I took a chance with this place. I had a sudden urge for Chinese. Boneless Spare Ribs in particular. All said and done gotta say this place was pretty good. read more

A nice, cheap little Chinese joint. I'm glad I found it :)

I love this place! I've been coming here for years. I love their chicken wings with garlic sauce.

Typical chinese place; small and not very clean. I called ahead and ordered a bunch of things including 4 large fries, pretty easy right? Well when I got there that I took everything and checked there was only one fry, I said that I had ordered 4 and as expected I had to wait for them to make the rest. After waiting for 10 mins the guy gave me two more fries, making it a total of three ( asked for 4) I got so mad that I told them to give me my money back because how hard is it to understand FOUR FRIES jeez, never going back. read more

check this place out. Better than usual hole in the wall...try the steamed dumplings, which are beautifully seasoned, sesame chicken, and noodle dishes. the sweet meat dishes, eg orange or lemon chicken, are a little too sweet for my taste. read more

I have been going to Happi Wok since 2010. Great Chinese food with both the typical American Chinese offerings and optional authentic Chinese version (ask for the Chinese menu or just look at what other customers are having). I can only speak to the Chinese menu although my American friends like their food as well. Yes, it is probably won't impress your date (you might want to try Dim Sum at Yummy House on Hillsborough for that), but the ingredients are always fresh and made to order. Service is ok and definitely gets better over time. My main reason for going is to get good spicy Chinese food at a reasonable price and for that this place stands out for me within a 20-mile radius. My favorites are: twice-cooked pork belly with leek, flounder fillet with ginger and scallion sauce or Hu-Nan pickled hot pepper sauce, and sliced beef/veggie in hot-chilly soup. read more
