This is the only place in Augusta where they get the texture & basic flavor of rice & noodles right - staple classic roadside Chinese restaurant vibes. read more

Their Hunan chicken was unbelievably good. Sauce was flavorful without being overly heavy or sugary, and the snap peas and broccoli were fresh and crispy. Ham-fried rice was fantastic and perfectly cooked, as was the egg roll. I'm very lucky to have this spot in my new neighborhood. Sometimes you go months before you find "the spot" for Chinese takeout; I lucked out on my first try! Can't wait to try more dishes! read more

I had another spot that was great, but after new owners and management everything changed. So... After reading the reviews I tried Happy Garden and haven't been disappointed! Fairly close and customer service is great. Very clean restaurant, even though I always get mine to go! This is where you want to get your Chinese! read more

The Beef Chow-fun was incredibly tasty and the beef was very tender. The Crab Rangoon was very balanced in flavor and hot and crispy. Lastly the Pork Egg-roll was completely on point and seasoned well. Highly recommended. read more

Happy Garden - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

This is hands down my favorite place to get take out in Augusta! There is not one thing on the menu I didn't like! One of my favorite appetizers is the crab Rangoon. They make the filling so sweet and flavorful that you don't even need to use the sauce! If I could give this place more than five stars I would! read more

Good is amazing, cleanest Chinese food I've ever found will definitely be making this my new favorite stop! Staff so kind and very thorough.

I have never before had a restaurant location make me sad the way this one does. Don't misunderstand me, the location itself is fine it's just too far from my house for me to be able to get takeout. The food is just so good that I'm already making plans in my head for what I want to try next. My small family dined in for dinner. The ambience is nonexistent-they seem to primarily be take out but there are tables available to eat your dinner that is still served in takeout containers. To be honest this just makes it more convenient to your leftovers home. The portions are huge so there will be leftovers. All three of us ordered combination meals that come with an egg roll and ham fried rice. We had chicken in garlic sauce, Mongolian chicken and Hunan beef. Then we also ordered a small honey chicken entree to share. Even though all our dishes were similar (a meat with veg in spicy sauce) they all had their own unique flavor profiles. The spicy dishes were hot enough to open up the sinuses without being overwhelming or burning out your pallet. The vegetables were all perfectly crisp tender and the meats were soft, succulent and juicy. The honey chicken came with white rice and was perfection. The breading stayed crisp through our entire meal and the sauce was perfectly sticky and sweet. The fried rice was well seasoned with great dry, fluffy texture. The egg rolls were hot fresh and crispy but flavor wise just pretty standard. Even though this place is counter service only both employees were very friendly and helpful. If they had a more inviting dine in experience this would easily be a full five stars. Or maybe I just need to move closer so that take out would be an option??? Our meal filled us up completely and we definitely have enough leftovers for everyone to get a big lunch again tomorrow and the price was under $50. We can't wait to come back the next time we're in the area. read more

Judging based on the two items I've gotten so far (and have ordered multiple times in only the past month), this place is toe to toe with some spots I've had in china towns of Houston and Atlanta. It will sound like an exaggeration but the flavor is authentic, the quanities are great, and the price is fair. Beef Chow fun (5/5): this beef chow fun is at least as good as ones I've had at almost every other restaurant apart from House of bowls in houston. Huge and plentiful beef chunks (flank I believe) that are super tender every time I've ordered. Plenty of crunchy bean sprouts to balance out the chewy wide rice noodles. The rice noodles always have a great texture and are soaked in the addicting brown sauce. The only thing I can think of that makes this just beneath the best spot in Houston's china town is that the sear is lighter on the beef flank and noodles, resulting in a slightly less smoky taste. This is probably just due to a lower heated wok. Overall this is my favorite dish in Augusta and I wouldn't be ashamed to bring family here when they visit no matter where they are from. Hunan chicken (4.5/5): The hunan chicken was a dish I ordered to see if other dishes tasted authentic here, and it also exceeded expectations. The dish is just spicy enough that there's a small kick without being overwhelming. There is a subtle fermented bean flavor similar to laoganma, making it stand apart from your average stirfried chicken dish you would find in other less authentic chinese restaurants. Like the beef flank in the beef chow fun, the chunks of chicken here are also plentiful and every single time I've ordered, they have been ridiculously tender. Plenty of snowsnap peas, carrots, and broccoli that are crunchy yet soaked in the brown sauce that goes great with white rice. I ordered this one with the egg roll and fried rice as a combo the first time. The egg roll is crispy and filled with pork/cabbage, less greasy than others I have had in Augusta. The fried rice is decent but a bit too salty. I recommend sticking to white rice. The only .5 I knocked off is because the Hunan chicken is just a tad saltier than I would like, but it's not a big issue with enough white rice. Definitely happy to have stopped by here after seeing a picture of their beef chow fun on google reviews. I have definitely found my Chinese spot in Augusta that isn't just solid for an Augusta Chinese spot but genuinely an authentic experience by any standard. read more

Everyone has a go-to Asian spot and this is mine. From the outside, it doesn't look like much but the food is delicious. It's tucked away and if you aren't looking good it, easy to miss. It's worth the stop, I've never been disappointed with the food or service. Since COVID, I'll call in an order on the way over and it's ready within 10-15 minutes. read more

This is probably my favorite Chinese takeout place in Augusta. Their food is pretty good and the portion sizes are so large for the price you pay. I usually get their chicken with garlic sauce combo with fried rice. It'll usually last me for 2-3 meals. The other thing I really enjoy ordering from here is their hot & sour soup. I try to get it every time I order anything from here. I love how they have carrots, tofu, bamboo shoots, amongst other ingredients put into the soup. Sometimes the soup isn't as strong as I would like it, so I'll add my own chili garlic sauce or rice vinegar into it to give it a little more of a kick. Overall, I really enjoy coming to this place if I'm ever craving some Chinese takeout. read more

Don't sleep on this place....every dish is full of flavor and large portions. Eat in or carry out. Try the lemon pepper wings too! read more

Happy Garden - Ham Angel Hair - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

Driving through Augusta, we stopped by this place due to its great Yelp reviews. How? Do locals know how is Chinese food supposed to taste like? We ordered large beef lo mein and large beef and broccoli. You can pay cash or debit car. In case you wanna pay credit card, there is a $5 minimum and a 3.99% surcharge! They do mostly take outs but have 3 tables available inside. We wanted to dine in. Now, nobody told us that they don't serve food on real plates with real silverware. You will be given styrofoam plates with these wobbly cheapo plastic forks. The food didn't taste amazing at all. The noodles were bland and my daughter found something really hard in her beef meat piece. Beef and broccoli wasn't amazing either. They also give you soy sauce pouches with fake soy sauce. Check out the photo I took and see for yourself. First time we didn't like a place that had great Yelp reviews. Two thumbs down. read more

Happy Garden - Pork fried rice - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

This place is definitely hidden as it's set back from the main road. I have some criteria for American-Chinese and this place set precedence for my first place in Augusta. I ordered the shrimp lo mein in the large which set me up for three meals total. I probably could have phoned this in ahead of time, but the wait was fairly typical - about 10 minutes. It was made to order. Staff is pleasant. Prices seem great and affordable. The interior of the place was clean, and the best of all, the food was NOT greasy. I can't attest to the standards of saltiness because of my impaired view while being sick...but honestly, I'll return here every. single. time. I'm craving Chinese takeout. read more

Happy Garden - Shrimp lo mein - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

This place is standard fare in the world of Chinese food. They have great prices, especially for the portions; however, the flavors were just okay. Will I eat there again? Probably. Is it the best Chinese food in Augusta? I hope not. Still on the hunt for my go to place. I had a lunch order of garlic chicken, hot and sour soup, and crab rangoons (not pictured). The rangoons were really really good--crispy, perfectly creamy and flavorful filling. The rest of the meal was fine, but fell short of my hopes and expectations. The flavors were a little lack luster. However, I got all of this food at lunch for $11--so at least it's a good deal. read more

This place is one of the best chinese restaurants in the downtown area and also one of the nicest places to come to. It's not everyday that I find alot of chinese restaurants in downtown so trying the locations out is a treat. The chicken with garlic sauce lunch special with white rice and hot, delicious and the perfect meal for lunch and the service was wonderful and there was barely anyone here except a couple of customers. You will have to wait 10 to 15 minutes I believe for your food so be sure to bring something to occupy you for a bit. Overall, I highly recommend Happy Garden all around :) read more

Good service and the food was good. I had lemon pepper wings, fried rice, and egg roll. Everything was cooked to order. The chicken was cooked perfectly and the rice was not mushy like some of these places. Egg roll was nice and crispy. read more

I love this place. The customer service was great and the food was even better. I was trying a new place because my normal place was closed on a Monday... The guy was so sweet when taking my order and took his time explaining to me what I wanted. If you haven't check this place out, go for it. I got the large schezen shrimp and it came with a lot of food for $12. Check them out if you haven't. read more

Fast service, food is delicious, and people are friendly. The location is very easy to get in and out of.

The food is hot and tasty. It didn't have to wait long to get my order. The portion of food you get will last for two days. I recommend this place for anyone who wants to get some good food and be able to enjoy it. read more

The best Chinese food in Augusta, GA. Crab Rangoons are great. Sesame chicken and spicy garlic chicken are wonderful every time we order it.

Happy Garden is by far the best Chinese restaurant in Augusta. When my boyfriend and I first moved here we tried multiple different Chinese restaurants but this one took the cake in not only quality/taste of food but also service. We ate there regularly for the entire 4 years at the DCG and it never failed to be absolutely delicious. We frequently got the sweet and sour chicken combo which is a 10/10 and the beef/chicken and broccoli combo which was usually an 8.5/10. We also love their crab rangoon's, egg drop soup, hot and sour soup, house soup, veggie lo mein, szechuan style beef, and much more. Really you can't go wrong with anything on the menu! We always called in for takeout and the wait time was always around 15-20 minutes for pickup. Usually a younger guy always helped us and he is just the best! read more

The food was excellent. Had sweet and sour chicken with fried rice and a vegetable roll. I had an unsweetened tea with it also. Food and tea was good. So you say what was wrong - only 3 stars you say. Well the chicken was like pop corn chicken and I wouldn't have been worried about it but there is a picture of the dish above the counter that shows small medallions of chicken! So was quite disappointed to be honest from what I expected and what I got. The reason I came here as well is because it has great reviews. Will I be back - maybe .... read more

Happy Garden - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

One of my favorite restaurants in this area. It's a must have when visiting! Crab Rangoons are the best around!

I've lived in a lot of different places and it's crucial to find a good Chinese takeout place. I've struggled to make that happen in Augusta until now. For Chinese takeout, you're not looking for 3 Michelin Stars. You want a clean place with friendly staff that will hook you up with some solid General Tso's Chicken and an Egg Roll. Happy Garden does exactly that. You'd almost miss the outside, but inside it's clean and the staff was really helpful. We had a mix up on a phone order and they gladly fixed the error, even as I apologized. If you need a go-to spot for Chinese in Augusta, this is your place. read more

This is the best takeout Chinese food in Augusta. High quality, delicious food, for a low price! They give you so much food for so little money. My boyfriend and I always call in our order, and it's usually ready within 15 minutes. We love the shrimp Lo Mein, Buffalo wings, dumplings, and beef with broccoli! Even their French fries are great. Love this place. read more

Our first experience with Happy Garden was an order for pickup on a Friday evening. We ordered the Schezuan chicken combo, an order of the steamed pork dumplings, and an order of chicken noodle soup. My fiance was very happy with his chicken, but I found the steamed pork dumplings to be a bit bland. Unfortunately, I was personally disappointed with the chicken noodle soup: I asked if there was any way to add vegetables and to substitute the thin, angel-hair noodles. They refused to substitute the noodles, and charged us extra to add a spoonful of 1-2 pieces of broccoli and carrots. The "soup" I received was almost exclusively noodles, a few small pieces of shredded chicken, and the "vegetables" we paid extra for. I would not order this item again. Overall however, I think this will be our new go-to for takeout Chinese. The food was not overly saucy, salty, or oily - it was very good quality, and tasted "fresher" than any takeout Chinese I've ever had. I will definitely order again, and would highly recommend! read more

I trusted the reviews I was seeing and wanted some great Chinese food, only to be very disappointed! I ordered a C-8 combo, General Tso's chicken and asked for pork fried rice instead of plain white. The chicken was oily and the rice was sticky and flavorless except for salt! Everything was extremely salty, Even the egg roll! Who does that? Ended up throwing out the whole thing after a couple of bites. Live and learn I guess, but not here again! read more

Happy Garden - Greasy and sticky, yum! - Chinese Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

So glad we found this place. Reminded me of some of the small Chinese restaurants in San Francisco's Chinatown. The food and service is top notch at Happy Garden. I got the shrimp and lobster sauce and was very impressed. I can only say good things about this place. The staff are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. This will be mine and my wife's Chinese restaurant of choice from now on. The others can't compare! read more

I'm not sure what the previous reviewer is talking about.. I have visited this place since they opened and every experience has been great!! The owners even bring me special things to try as I am such a repeat customer. I have tried the Mongolian Beef, Fried Fish and Shrimp, Egg Drop Soup, Sesame and General Tso's chicken, crab raggoon, Beef and Broccoli (which was my least favorite, not because it was bad just B&B tends to be bland to me), Chinese Chicken Wings, Shrimp and Pork Egg Rolls, Shrimp and Lobster Sauce, Vegetable Fried Rice and Fried Calamari... and it has all been very good.. way better then the Chinese place by Kroger. Admittedly they had growing pains (slow service, credit card machine problems) when they first started as this is their first restaurant but the food was always good and the service is much improved! You can't beat the portion sizes and the owner even explained the chicken wings she got were "scrawny" when I placed an order and added a few extra to make up for it... I have never had anyone get their food, look at it and ask for their money back or had anything that was dripping with grease... and I go in there for lunch and dinner around twice a week. The restaurant is very clean and the service people are very nice and accommodating!! Love this place and will definitely be going back to try more and more of their menu!!!! read more
