New to the area - thought we would check it out. Now in the rotation. The staff is friendly, food is delicious and plentiful. Very broad menu. Seems like it's mostly carry out - so don't let empty dining area fool you. read more

I've been going to this place for years and it never disappoints! The food is always hot, fresh and delicious. Service is great, staff is friendly and the restaurant is always clean and organized. read more

The first time we went was just okay..nothing spectacular. That was a year or so ago. This visit was great! Fresh, yet fast. We'll be back

The for was good and the service was great. They are very friendly and it's conveniently located.

Nope. They did not have any ramunes. Not going back. But the food was good! But not going back.

Great food portions for the price. Very friendly staff. They sure know how to please a hungry customer.

Great food for a great price. Easy to get in and order. Food is made to order and quick!

Food was yummy, workers are so kind, didn't eat in but the place looked cleaned! Owned by a local Chinese family. Support your locally owned restaurants always!! read more

Always very good. I usually get the Moo Goo Gai Pan but this time got cashew chicken. The serving size and quality are very good for the price. read more

I ordered three dishes in total, but the food was better than I expected. The coral shrimp baked and fried with salted egg yolk was crispy and delicious, and you can eat even the shell. One of the criteria for testing whether Cantonese cuisine is authentic is fried rice noodles. This rice noodles is the most authentic one I have eaten in nearly a year. read more

Happy Dragon - Chinese Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

First, the restaurant is pleasantly decorated, counter service and both the owners are super friendly. They have eight tables. We ordered two dishes, dined in; 1) Singapore Mei Fen or 星州米粉 deserves great mark, I have been to Singapore multiple times and had this numerous times, it's remarkably close. 2) Hunan Triple, very taste and has a mild sauce, I'm sure they can spiced it up for you, this dish won't disappoint you. We also had hot Chinese jasmine tea, they actually use loose leaf tea, not tea bags! Perfect for the dishes. We arrived at 6:30pm on a Monday, busy with carry outs orders. 3 tables were occupied. I would dine in again next time, your dishes will be better right off the wok. Very clean restrooms. From outside, inside, service, people, this is a 5-STARS. read more

It's hard for us to find a Chinese restaurant we really like. Back in Michigan there was one in the town we lived in that set the bar pretty high. We thought we found "our" Chinese restaurant with Peking City Bistro, but that place is now a disaster. China King is OK, but it's bare-bones Chinese with no atmosphere. Enter Happy Dragon. Just a few miles away and nestled inside Tyler Village, I think we've finally found the place we can call "our" Chinese restaurant. It's not full service, but it's "order at the counter and we'll bring it out to you" service. The place is minimally but tastefully decorated, and doesn't sport the kind of immersive/overwhelming menu that some Chinese restaurants do. Sometimes having fewer things to chose from is better. Food delivery was less than ten minutes and was served steaming hot...and it was SO effing good. Honestly, I don't think it took me ten minutes to finish my meal. I wasn't in a rush, I was just fungry, and this hit. the. spot. My only issue (if you could call it that) was that it didn't measure up to the spice level I ordered, but since it was our first visit I didn't have any kind of heat gauge to go by. Drinks come from cans/bottles. No fountain drinks, so drink price are per-bottle. If you're looking for a refill, reach in your pocket. When I eat an egg roll I like to add some hot mustard because, hey, it's been a while since I felt fire travel up my nostrils to the back of my head. I prefer a store-made hot mustard and Happy Dragon only has the little pre-made packets that look like a bad idea and desperation. As a result, and as much as I tried to use, I wasn't able set my scalp on fire. With the demise of Peking City Bistro, Happy Dragon is where we'll be getting our Chinese food fix. And I am OK with that. read more

Happy Dragon has quickly become our new go-to Chinese spot since we've moved. Typically many Chinese places will taste the same to me, but here I can definitely taste better quality food. Their fried rice is above average, and very good! I'd recommend the General Tso's, as it is a good-sized portion and tastes great. The restaurant itself seems to be well-kept. If you live in the Taylorsville Rd/Tucker Station area, this is a great place to try whenever you are craving Chinese. read more

Was hoping for great things but was totally disappointed. Ordered shrimp with cashew nuts, sesame chicken, and crab rangoon. The crab rangoon was like paste and looked like it had sat under a heat lamp for 6 hours. Couldn't finish them and that says something since it's crab rangoon. The shrimp dish was mostly celery, and the sesame chicken was like a 6/10. I was excited to venture somewhere new based on reviews but now shocked at how off the food was to how great the reviews were. Definitely not the worst place to get food, but it wasn't even as good as a mall food court Chinese place. Could of been an off day but not worth it to try again and find out. read more

Happy Dragon always has great food and speedy service! You can call and place your order and it will be ready within 10-20 minutes. Food is always hot and taste fresh and made to order. The building is nice and quaint and they always have sauces, fortune cookies, and it involves available to grab with your takeout order. read more

It's ight I guess. Food was wasn't bad but not worth their prices. expected more from it. Services wasn't bad at all just normal good service. Expected more from the food. They went too much money for this type of food read more

Best Chinese food I've had since moving to Louisville almost 2 years ago. It's about 4-5th place I've tried. The crab Rangoon are my favorite. They're nice a crispy without being too crispy and burnt. The orange chicken has really good flavor but wish it stayed a little bit crispier. The black pepper chicken is very good. I really like the little corns the put in it. The friend rice is really good! I'm not huge fan of fried rice but theirs is really delicious. It's about 10-15 minute drive but it's worth it. They always answer the phone, always ready and super hot and fresh when I get there! read more

Best fast food Chinese in the city always made fresh when you order. I love their hot and sour soup, veggie fried rice and crab Rangoon. Everything I have ordered is wonderful read more

Had the Mongolian beef and wonton soup. The beef - what you could find among the onions - was a weird grayish color, and the sauce was super watery and lacked flavor. Probably the worst noodle to soup ratio I've ever had in wonton soup, and the noodles that were there were sad and disintegrating. If you want to overpay for bad Chinese food, this is the place for you. read more

I have eaten here in store and today I placed a pick up order. I was on a time crunch so I called in an order from their lunch menu. I ordered the pepper steak and onions this comes with rice and an egg roll. I love egg rolls, this one was small and not seasoned well, very bland. The lunch specials are a great value and a pretty good portion but taste was just ok. I was able to customize my order to make it extra spicy. It wasn't super spicy. My order was ready when I arrived it took about 10-15 minutes to be ready and since I called it in, there was no wait I was in and out. If you place a pick up order be sure to grab utensils, napkins and sauces before you head out. I will try other lunch options when I am on this side of town. They have about 5-7 tables to eat inside restaurant. Service is good. read more

Ordered General Taos w/ fried rice & egg roll via door dash. Quick delivery and excellent food. My only complaint--they were stingy on the sauce packets. 1 soy packet (I normally use 4), and 1 hot and 1 mustard which I don't use, and no duck sauce which I really wanted and assumed would be in the bag since it's included by pretty much every other Chinese restaurant in the country. Perhaps this will be a learning opportunity for the restaurant--several packets of each sauce!!!! read more

Here's the deal- If you want your typical Chinese food this is your place. Friendly staff and a very clean restaurant. Happy Dragon is dine in and carry out. I call and place an order on the way home. By the time I make it my order is ready to go. The crab Rangoon is always wonderful. Also the hot and sour soup is fantastic. The price is very reasonable as well. read more

We were nearby and had heard from friends that the food here was good. Like many similar places this is a semi-service were you order at the counter, go sit at a table and they bring everything out to you. This is a family run operation and when we walked in the mother and her young son were behind the counter. The father was in the kitchen helping cook. The son was working the cash register and with a big smile asked us for our order. He was very cute, proficient and had a great personality for his age. My wife ordered her favorite, Hot & Sour Soup and Moo Goo Gai Pan W/Fried Rice. I ordered Hot & Sour and the Spicy Happy Family W/Fried Rice. Our friend ordered the Extra Spicy Hunan Triple. We sat down and very shortly the mother brought out our soup. Just as we finished the soup she brought our meals. The very generous portion meals are served in a large bowl with the rice on the side. Everything was served hot and delicious and we especially enjoyed the Hot & Sour Soup. We wish it was closer as we would certainly make this place a regular stop. read more

It's Chinese New Year this weekend so of course we celebrate by picking up Chinese Food to-go. This restaurant caught my eye after leaving Physical Therapy so it was super convenient. I didn't even have to move my car, I just walked a couple of businesses down. I always test a Chinese restaurant on some standard dishes. Top two - Hot & Sour Soup and General Tso's Chicken. The Hot & sour Soup was thick just how we like it. It was plenty spicy and caught both my husband and I by surprise during our dinner. We both enjoy spicy food so it wasn't a problem but it bordered on a little too much heat. General Tso's was just o.k.. I hate to say it but I've gotten spoiled by cooking the store brand frozen General Tso's and adding lots of fresh broccoli florets. This fresh take out was no better and maybe not as good. I might try this restaurant again for lunch but don't think it will be our spot for take out food. It was A-OK but nothing outstanding. read more

My husband and I took my dad out for Chinese. Seeing the menu online and the good reviews got us excited. We arrived and were greeted warmly. Drinks are not on fountain, just bottled. The menu is varied and so we each ordered our "usual" - General Tso Chicken, Mixed Veggies (no mushrooms) in spicy garlic sauce, and Chicken with Cashews. The area was clean and people were friendly. My expectations however were disappointed. There was no heat level to my spicy garlic sauce (when ordered extra spicy). The portion was ok by size, and tasted just OK. Being that this is an out of the way location for me, I likely won't return. There are other, more flavorful and convenient restaurants in town. read more

Purchased the Thai Curry Chicken. I am unable to eat rice due to dietary/medical reasons. Asked if I could substitute the rice (half the meal) for a cup of soup instead. Shouldn't be a big deal should it? Answer, NO-Rice or nothing. Hopefully the food is better than the service and the desire to have repeat customers. read more

We ordered Singapore Mei Fun and Shrimp Kung Pao to go. It was spicy and delicious. Service was friendly, quick and efficient. This was my first time at this restaurant and I will definitely make this my go to for Chinese food. read more

By far our favorite Chinese spot in town. Always a fan of the bourbon chicken it's always fresh. They are always quick to prepare your order as well. Lucky to live so close to this place as we love a good Chinese spot to eat at and Happy Dragon meets the mark! read more

Fat and friendly service, always. I always get the pork lo mein and the husband gets pork fried rice. Solid choices. Even the mapo¿ tofu is delicious amazing. I love it all. No substitution needed - in reference to the gentleman that gave a one star review when he probably didn't even try any of the food. Rice cost nearly nothing and takes almost no effort or other ingredients to make. Soup takes time and effort and call for more ingredients. The cost and labor are not equivalent - so no you can't sub 5 cents of food for $2 worth. Stop being cheap and pay for what you get. read more

For quick Chinese, this place is pretty good. I am not normally a fan of these Chinese fast food type places but this one is pretty good. Have had a few dishes here but my favorite has been the twice cooked pork. This is not August Moon or PF Changs but for a quick Chinese fix, this place does a nice job. Definitely worth a try!! read more

Happy Dragon - Chinese Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

My first time here was a couple of months ago. I had been told by a friend that it was better than most of the order at the counter Chinese places around, so I gave it a try. We were going to get take out, for lunch today, so I checked, to see what I ordered last time. It was Spicy Bamboo Chicken. I remember being very impressed with it. It is spicy, as the name says. So, many times I am disappointed, because it menu items say they are spicy, but they aren't. But, I noticed I hadn't done a review and decided, to do it now. Last time, we ate, in the restaurant. The restaurant is very clean. They have a little table set up, where you can get extra sauces and things. They have bottled drinks. The employee who took our order did a good job. This time the take-out meal was also good. I usually try different things, on the menu, but since the Spicy Bamboo Chicken had been so good last time, I wanted it again. The flavor and spice was still good. I will try something else, next time. It is nice to have a good Chinese restaurant so close. read more

We like this place. Perfect for that late night Chinese food takeout craving. The place is clean, the orders are always correct and hot.

Happy Dragon is a great lunch spot. The price is right, the food is good (pepper chicken combo!), the service is fast, and the restaurant clean. What you need to know about the Happy Dragon is that creates happy customers. read more

Hong Kong noodles were really good, a nice mixture of flavors and actually spicy. However the rest of items we orders, fried rice and orange chicken, were very much the standard Chinese fare and nothing special to be honest. The restaurant itself was very nice and had a lot of seating available. read more

Happy Dragon is THE go to place for the best Chinese takeout. The owners are kind and always get our order right. They're the best!

Clean, neat atmosphere and good service. The food was just okay- the orange chicken sauce was strangely thick and so was my hot and sour soup. I'd call the food average. In the many choices of restaurants in Louisville, I would probably choose to adventure somewhere new than come back. read more

I ordered the black pepper chicken no rice add lo mein noodles, and it was the best black pepper chicken I have ever had. It had a sweet but spicy sauce I love the sweet with the heat and it had water chestnuts for that extra crunch, it was really really delish! Thanks Happy Dragon for never disappointing. Black pepper chicken is my new favorite, it took the place of there Mongolian beef. read more

I categorize food as bad, OK, and really good. Or, I write something decent about the food and the place. Went to the Happy Dragon on Taylorsville Rd today in "Jefferson Town", a part of "Louisville". Had an Egg Roll (not bad, but a little greasy), Won-Ton Soup that was a lot better than that place I went to yesterday in Lexington, and a Melody of Sea food and Chinese Vegetables, which I would say were just OK. It's a neat little store front and the people were nice, but next time, I'll go two doors down to the Subway, and get something a lot more palatable. Will I go back ? No read more
