The best salsa verde burrito in town. You can't beat the price. And it's really good. Pretty quick when I order for pick up.

On my lunch break tryna get a quick burger combo.stopped at this spot just right off del amo off ramp. It's crazy how the Fries are old and stale, charged me 87cents for a side of 1000island and forgot to put it in my bag! The burger was basic. Won't be stopping her anymore for lunch during work! read more

1st time here. Seen a clip on TikTok and decided to stop by since it was on my way home from work. Customer service was very patient with me being I asked 21'questions about certain items on the menu. That Machaca breakfast burrito tho!!!! Found me a new spot! Huge burrito filled with carne asada, veggies, eggs, potatoes, & cheese!! Man I couldn't finish it because it was so hardy!! And under $12!! You can't beat that!! Especially in this economy. Very affordable as well. My burrito plus my kids breakfast platters(4) & a drink all came to about $50. Had I went somewhere else, easy 70-80! Definitely coming back!! Gracias por su amabilidad y la buena comida! Volveré read more

This location is amazing. There isn't anything they can't prepare for you. So many choices and the customer service is completely awesome. Why four stars? Honestly their food can be a bit salty. I ordered a turkey burger and it was a tab bit salty. I sort of expected that so that's why I ordered my fries with no salt. Unfortunately so much salt is used that the salt left over in the fryers caused my fries to be salty anyway. So I enjoyed the meal. The portions are awesome, the prices are reasonable and it's made fresh but I can't do the salt. I would definitely come back though. read more

Great food. I entered the drive-thru with only one car ahead of me around 7:15AM, and although they did take a bit longer than a usual drive-thru accessible establishment, it wasn't a big deal as you're paying for quality food!

I came here for a quick bite and got the grilled chicken sandwich combo. It was cooked perfectly. The sandwich was brought to my table and the service was quick and friendly. There was plenty of parking spot and a drive thru. The ambience is casual and the place is very clean. Prices are competitive and reasonable for the generous portions you get. I would definitely come back if in the area again. read more

Happy Boy Grill - French Toast - Burgers Near Me - Compton, California

Full disclosure, we only do Door Dash with this place ... so keep that in mind when reading this review, please These guys make a killer omelette! Seriously I have had most of the omelette offerings and I have not been let down yet, I would rank their omelets among the better ones in Long Beach. That said these people have yet to offer up eatable hash browns! Their hash browns have no flavor and are just barely cooked. So much so I have had hash browns from them that while they aren't crunchy raw, they still have that raw potato taste/aroma. I know they are just trying to get the food out quick, but I want the food cooked. But I gave up, I get the omelette the dog gets the hash browns! I would try going with fruit instead of has browns, but the always throw a sliver of melon in the meal ... it's raw too. As in not ripe! It's crunchy! So I am sure if I ordered fruit it would be raw as well. And I am not going there. The dog doesn't like fruit! But I am dead serious when I say you'll get a great omelette from these guys! read more

The junior burger special is a must try can't go wrong juicy burger with all the work with fries and a drink for 7 bucks can't beat it only thing I will say is I tried the chili cheese fries I had high expectations the fries were good only thing I say is they could have added more chili barley got any and maybe do a lil experiment on the chili but overall it was good place read more

THEY NEED TO CHANGE EVERYTHING!!!!! Worst experience ever I will never go back unless the manager offers me a full refund. Came to the establishment saw the reviews on ig and thought it was a different place but it ended up being a spot that I've always seen but haven't tried it in years. So my daughter and I came inside the restaurant and looked at the menus. The time we visited the restaurant it was not crowded at all. We placed our order and decided to dine in. My daughter ordered the cheeseburger special for 6.99 and I ordered the 3 Taco special that came with fries and a drink for 9.99 you can only choose chicken or beef which is carne asada.The lady there that took our order was the only one doing the phone orders drive thru and regular service. Not to mention that there were 2 cooks there as well. When she brought out our food presentation was ok other than the small portions of fries per order. My daughter's cheese wasn't even melted on her cheeseburger. My first bite of my taco was a big chunk of fat extremely disappointing and as I tried to eat the rest of my tacos I couldn't help but still be disappointed to get fat chuncks throughout the rest of my tacos. The meat tasted like it was just sitting in oil. My daughter and I were very disappointed and by this time customers were coming in more frequently than when we first got there. The lady came to our table to ask how was everything and I told her awful. I then proceeded to point to my plate and show her all the fat pieces from my taco she apologized and asked was there something else that she could get me and I said no in disgust. She said well I can go tell the cook but they are rude and disrespectful and they just opened a new pack of meat and I said well if they just opened it then there is no way that I should have this much fat in 3 tacos. She then grabbed a napkin that was on our table reached in my plate with the napkin and grabbed the fat to show the cook my thought was wtf did she just do what I think she did then I looked at my daughter who had another disappointing and dissatisfied look on her face. Then the lady said oh I'll go say something to them but the cooks are very rude and disrespectful when I say anything to them. I said don't worry I'll gladly say something. So she goes behind the counter and says the customer wants to talk to you about the tacos. One of the cooks chuey acted like he was concerned the other cook was real rude and walked away because he was already pissed from whatever the lady said to him. So when he comes back from the back he comes to the counter with a attitude and I said the tacos that I ordered were horrible and I had more fat in my tacos than meat he said with a attitude everything I open has fat I said well not that damn much smh. He then said if I had a problem with the food to contact the manager and I told him don't worry I will. The service overall was horrible but what took the cake is her taking the napkin digging in my plate without even asking me was I done or saying I'll be right back with another order. The rude cooks name was Victor very unprofessional rude and didn't take constructive criticism well at all. I will be phoning the manager in the morning to let him know of this horrible experience. I wouldn't recommend this spot at all it's a hard Nooooooo noooooo and hell naw for me ion care how good they deals are go elsewhere. I promise you'll regret it if you do. Side note I didn't get to take pics of the fat from my tacos because when I told her about it she instantly dug in my plate I was under the impression that she was going to just look but she took it out of my plate. The pictures that I am including are how our food looked. Remember that looks can be deceiving read more

It's one of those hidden gems. read more

I don't know what people are talking about with all the bad reviews. I feel if you like Tams, Louis, Fantastic etc. (I like to believe it's the same ownership/relation almost, or business got transferred, as they used to be Del Amo Burgers back in the day and it was good) you will like this, as it's pretty much the same premise, and they are under a family owned name "Happy Boy", and the food is tasty, delicious, and it's bomb and really good. They have a very diverse and wide menu. Like whatever you are in the mood for comfort food wise, they are going to have. The burgers are good, however they are charbroiled classic style, and if you're someone that likes more thick/gourmet burgers like Fatburger style, this isn't the type of burgers they have. It's more charbroiled/grilled patties. The fries are also perfect. The employees are nice, and the service is nice. Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, whatever you're in the mood for, they have. I definitely recommend this place. read more

This review is for the woman who was working last night on 2/22 because she is a superstar! I do have to wonder why the business has only one person covering so many positions and also why they don't have anything self serve (not even napkins or utensils)... Anyway, I came here last night with a group of friends because we were watching a Muay Thai fight down the street and many people had the same idea. She was slammed. She was cashiering, delivering food, bussing tables, taking care of the drive-thru and even cooking food at one point. She seemed cool, calm and collected and was still able to check on the tables, bring us condiments, napkins etc. Me and my boyfriend split a meal and she even came out to make sure she didn't miss his order. That woman seriously deserves a raise. As for the food, the portions were enormous. One burger and order of zucchini fries was enough for me and my bf to split and that man can eat lol. The food came out super fast, hot and was awesome. read more

Great customer service, but that's not really what you come to the drive-thru for... I wanted something...I ended up with a Pastrami Special. It was okay. Something is "off" with the pastrami, but they did make a huge sandwich! : ). The fries were just okay; you know fries should be bomb! I ordered an horchata. I knew it was coming from the machine, but dang, it had no flavor. Sigh. $12 experiment gone awry. read more

shoutout Tia first time here and showed a lot of love, food & customer service is great definitely will be back

My entry to happy boy grill was amazing, walking in I was greeted by trumpets and the sound of a Victorian Orchestra. Looking at the menu everything seemed appetizing, the aura was so strong, My wife was talking about some "Nobu" but she knows damn well we got Happy Boy Grill around the corner. There was a few flies and a few homeless tweakers but it's ok. The ladies were very professional and had no problem making my order in a timely manner, My sandwich was so exquisite it tasted like it was crafted by the finest of ingredients and Michelin star chefs. When I sat down to eat some tweaker was ranting about fake charges made on his credit card but it's ok. When I finished my meal I was satisfied, I ate everything including the napkins. The meat is comparable to A5 Wagyu in terms of quality, it tasted like those 5 star restaurants but cheaper and better. The soda fountain was quite dissapointing, I wanted a Strawberry Fanta but it got diluted because it was 85% water. But its all good, just get rid of the flies and fix the fountain. read more

Very rare for me to give just 1 star, but Happy Boy has earned that 1 star in my experience. I've been here four times in the past few months for lunch, and only because it is conveniently close to one of my work locations. I've had burgers, fries, breakfast, and a carne asada burrito on my trips there. The food itself is probably 2 stars; it's edible, but no way I could call the food "good". The portions are fair, and the prices are on par with other grill/burger/Mexican food places like this. For example, the burger/fries combo is about $10. The staff are okay, friendly enough. But the inside of the place could be cleaner. I've been in for a late lunch and found half the empty tables still need to be cleaned. The reason I knocked Happy Boy down to 1 star is that two times they got my order wrong. On my most recent visit there, I ordered a hamburger. No cheese. The woman taking my order even confirmed "no cheese". And of course when my food arrived at my table, the burger had cheese. So, despite the convenience, I will not be going back to Happy Boy. I gave them 4 tries, and all 4 tries led to disappointment. read more
