I love this spot! Such a hidden gem. The building appears dilapidated from the outside but do not let this stop you from going in and enjoying Korean food like your grandma made it! The dishes are excellent- super authentic and absolutely delicious. Again, not a great ambiance but the food is well worth it. An absolute hidden gem with good service. read more

Solid 4/5 stars! Moved to Augusta few weeks ago and been craving some Korean food and giving Happy House a try was a great decision. My friend and I ordered some entrees to go and all the dishes met or exceeded expectations. The spicy ja jang myun sauce was perfect. We also had the option to make it extra spicy, but the noodles were too soft. The chicken katsu and sauce tasted good too. Wasn't greasy or overly fried, chicken was still tender inside. Cant get ja jang without tang soo yuk and their chicken tang soo yuk was pretty good! I'd say slightly too chewy on some parts, but the overall enjoyment of the dish including the sweet sauce made me feel like I was back in NJ. Definitely entrees cooked way better than other Korean restaurants I've been to in SC or Augusta. There's plenty of dining a space in the front and back of the store, decent size parking lot, but a very tiny bathroom. Overall facilities were kept well cleaned & maintained from what I've seen. The staff were friendly and our food came out fairly quick for the amount we ordered. I'll certainly be back again and I'm sure my friend who dined here with me would agree. read more

This place is one of those, random locations you will find and it's a Korean Restaurant. This place is the best when going as a group and trying out their Spicy Hotpot and their Seafood Pancakes are very good and crunchy. The actually individual dishes like the Marinaded Ribs are okay but not that flavorful and a bit overpriced. Very fun place to go as a group. read more

Certainly for Augusta and the surrounding area, this is about as authentic as you're going to get for Korean food. You'd have to go to Atlanta for anything better. I like the steamed egg soup. It's simple. The pork bulgogi is more of a stewed pork without any char on it. This is not unusual for this dish. There are versions where the pork is grilled but each place does it differently. read more

This place crushes. Banchan is plentiful, perfectly sticky rice, excellent sundubu, crispy, crunchy, and chewy kimchi pancakes, and the best jajangmyeon I've had outside of NY. Will 101% come back next time I'm in Augusta read more

Best authentic Korean food in Augusta. You know you are in the right place when the server starts bringing out small side dishes that is Korean authentic. The BBQ are top notch and there is plenty of parking in the back. The location in Augusta can be sketchy so park in a well lit place. Overall this is similar to Korean restaurant I visit in Koreatown. Plenty of food, drinks and a lot of BBQ and kimchi. read more

Happy House - Korean Near Me - Augusta, Georgia

The food is good here but boy have they cut WAY back on the portion sizes!!!!! We went for lunch and spent $90 dollars and left the restaurant hungry. They brought out the small sides and a Yaki Mandu order which we noticed were both MUCH smaller now. The service was good and it's always nice and clean in the restaurant. I've been a faithful customer for many years at this location and have seen this restaurant change owners a few times, but I've never left there hungry, lol! I guess high grocery prices has affected them, but that's no excuse to cut the food portions back this drastically where customers leave hungry and keep the prices high. Unfortunately I won't go back because I'm not paying $90 for a meal and leaving a restaurant hungry. I have a little bit of friendly advice; go back to the portion sizes you had before and stop being greedy. read more

I went here for lunch today with my family. I wanted to give them another chance since there aren't a lot of Korean restaurants in Augusta, and was hoping my experience would be better. It was the same. SUPER small portions and SUPER expensive. I had seafood japchae and I say "seafood" very loosely. There was one shrimp in the bowl, five small pieces of squid, and the rest was noodles. Sadly there wont be anymore chances given. read more

I can always count on a Korean spot to be near a military base. Out of two Korean restaurants in close proximity to Fort Gordon, Happy House (HH) was the the only one open on a Tuesday night and also the closest, about 15 minutes away. It was COLD at Fort Gordon, at least a good 5-10 degrees colder than in Savannah, so I ordered my go to stew, Kimchijjiggae, to dethaw my soul. It came with a bowl of rice and a box full of 5 varieties of banchan, see pic. Direct translation: "ban" means 100 and "chan" means dishes, meaning 100 dishes. There are endless varieties of banchan which are side dishes in Korean cuisine and they accompany every meal. Think of it as a sampling session. Most restaurants in the US serve anywhere between 4 - 8 dishes. *Kimchijjiggae - This was a super generous portion. I am pretty sure HH's take out soup container is bigger than the standard pint size soup containers that most restaurants use. The mouth of the container was wider and felt pretty heavy. I'm a big eater, but no matter how much I ate, I didn't see the bottom of that container. *Kimchi - The Kimchijjiggae is only as good as its Kimchi and their regular Kimchi was pretty good. *Kongnamul Muchim (Mung Bean Sprouts) - This is one of my faves. It was well seasoned and I definitely finished this one! *Stir fried zucchini - I wasn't a fan of this one. It was plain, which is fine because sometimes, banchan can be plain, but it was too oily for me. *Spicy Korean Radish - Korean daikon radish is julienned and is mixed in a similar marinade as Kimchi. This was great too! *Cucumber Kimchi - crunchy and delicious My husband wasn't around to help me eat it, but it would have been plenty for the both of us. I felt awful for throwing out the uneaten portion, but I would have burst if I kept eating and had no way of keeping it for later. For about $17 and change, it was a little on the pricier side, but the portion justifies the price and you can share with a buddy and just order another app to share to make it a complete meal. - Service - I placed my take out order over the phone and left immediately to go and pick it up. I arrived within 15 minutes and the order was already packed and ready to go! It was well packed too (the soup container itself was packed with plastic wrap...the last thing you need is Kimchijjiggae leaking in your car. The lady who helped me was really nice and courteous. She handed me my card back with 2 hands which is a sign of respect in Korean culture, so for a non-Korean to be very aware and sensitive to a part of the customer base was of a nice touch! I'm sure the older Korean generation would be both impressed and appreciative of the gesture! Tip: If you are ordering this alone and have leftovers of banchan, that is, if you haven't eaten it all, mix any leftover rice, banchan and fry an egg, mix all together to make BiBimBap! - COVID Observations - * staff are wearing masks * masks are required to enter * Dining area is open, only 2 tables were occupied when I went, not sure if they are limiting capacity - take out available Stay safe, Friends! read more

Well all I can say, I found this gem on Yelp and along with visiting one of my former soldiers that I served with over in Middle East has told me this place was great. My family and I came all the way from Texas just to visit with our friends in Augusta. We love eating Korean food. While Texas has some great tasting Korean food. This place has beat all the places I have eaten Korean food. I have been stationed in Korea at one point of my military career. And OMG this place is authentic as can be. Like seriously, I have had Korean food tasting this good since I was stationed over in Korea 23 years ago. It's small but damn well worth. They are following COVID procedures. Their cucumber kimchi is really flavorful. The spicy pork because that is my favorite dish, was on point and very authentic tasting. Everything on the menu looked so tasting. I will definitely have to come back and try this place out again when I come back to visit in Georgia again. They even have soju, the drink of choice a soldier always talks about when we are stationed in Korea read more

I have been coming to this restaurant for long time. But I ordered a Galbi LA for &26.99 I was stunned how very thin the slices of the meat. It's not worthy for what we pay for!! I called the restaurant talk to the owner. She was very rude and blunt terrible service when addressing concerns of their cuetomers. read more

WONDERFUL. Absolutely the best korean spot ive been too in Augusta. 10/10 I definitely be coming back in the near future.

The ambiance of this place us very clean, very korean style, I love the decoration and little posters, and the television so you can watch performances of dancers.

New owners again...I think can't really tell anymore so many faces come and go...but at least the quality and quantity of the food still remains the same. There are new laminated 1 sheet double-sided menus great for the whole COVID-19 situation. The staff was super sweet, polite, and attentive...I really enjoyed that part of my visit. You didn't wait long for a greeting, seating, menu, drinks, nor your food or check lol... It's cold outside so the Ramen was perfect. It wasn't scorching hot and it wasn't lukewarm either...it was the perfect temperature. read more

Ambience. B Service. A Food. A Price. A Experienced a couple new staff tonight and had to educate on Gochujang...it's okay...you're new and you'll learn. Friendly servers and quick service for made to order dinner. Wasn't too busy so got our food within 20 mins. You can choose how hot most dishes are I recommend mild to share and if you want spicy yourself, get more spice on the side. Ordered SOOnDoBoo silky tofu and clam soup. Nice bites of tender clams and silky tofu with nice spicy broth. The spongy noodle chap Chae was perfectly cook and nice stirfry with tender beef and veggies. The spicy squid dish was bright red and you think would be spicy but just very flavorful. There were some chewy pieces of squid and lots of onions. Still a nice dish. I might get a pork dish of this next time. 5 dishes of banchan...new today was the marinated eggplant. Nice. Apparently, barley water is a seasonal option. Too bad I really enjoy as an accompaniment with dinner. Dinner for 2 without drinks was $55! I'm a fan for authentic Korean flavor dishes!!! read more

I cannot rave about this place enough! Between the food and the people, I'm in heaven. The men and women working here are incredibly gracious and pleasant. My husband and I came in on my birthday in the middle of the week, and when they checked my ID they noticed my birthday and were so incredibly nice and fun. I really can't compliment their customer service enough. And the food! It was delicious, more focused on flavor than on grease like some other restaurants. Their pickled radish and cucumber kimchi are so fresh and crunchy, it's the best I've had since leaving Island. They also have various flavored Soju available and serve it in these smart decanters that hold ice in a separate compartment. Love this place, food, and people. You're killing it! read more

The quality of the food has diminished significantly. The dishes are over priced for what they serve. Multiple dishes were ordered and all of them were a disappointment. The appetizer ordered tasted like Costco sample. The Ramen dish was also depressing. This was our last visit to this location. The service was ok, but personal conversations can be done once the customer has been helped and served not during. Attention to the customer should be a priority. The ambience is just a hole in the wall, not very impressing. read more

It's served in a sizzling hotstone bowl and comes with small portions of kimchi vegetables sprouts, and spicy cucumbers. My favorite was the fried dumplings which is an appetizer. Although the menu selections are a bit overpriced I enjoyed my meal, the staff was very friendly and overall the restaurant and restrooms were clean. read more

This is such a hidden gem. I moved from LA several months ago and had been really missing the Korean food. When I found Happy House it made my night. The service was amazing and the food came fast and was delicious. I got the Kimchi Jigae and LOVED IT. My wife, who is new to Korean food and not a fan of Kimchi, got the chicken Korean BBQ plate and raved about it. The menu is huge (really, enormous) so they have something for everyone. Fried rice or chicken Katsu could be perfect for kids who are new to spicy food. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed! read more

Certainly not a fancy restaurant, but their specialty is really good food. I mean, seriously good. I've only eaten there twice, but the two things I had were really good. I haven't been able to eat spicy food for a few months (hopefully temporary) and they accommodate every thing from "no spice" to hot with no problem. I know nothing about Korean food, but I expect I'm really going to enjoy working my way through their really big menu. Done in or takeout. read more

Food is great, service is excellent, a little pricey on menu selections. Location is good.

Such flavorful food!! I've never been to an authentic Korean restaurant before. Very very impressed. The food was so flavorful, I can't say that enough. I'm not a fan of seafood but my peeps with me freaking loved it. The portion sizes were a great size as well. The atmosphere isn't much to look at but that's okay if you only care about the food. The service was pretty decent too. There was only one server and she was pretty attentive to us. I highly recommend this place :) read more

A note from a traveler from Charlotte, N.C. en route to Florida: This was the best stop for food along my route. This is AUTHENTIC Korean food, served hot and fresh. Lots of signs in Korean, promoting Korean beers and beverages - I love a cultural experience. The staff was friendly and helpful. The menu is EXTENSIVE, so take your time and ask questions. Also, I'd say 75% of the items are spicy - my mouth was on FIRE lol. If you're sick or it's a cold, icky day - all of the soups/broths are good choices. Furthermore, the portions are MASSIVE. I ate three times from my one order, no exaggeration. So definitely a good bang for your buck. I would absolutely return when driving through this town. Thumbs up guys! read more

Cracked my tooth on a shell in the pah jun. when I discreetly brought it up to the waiter he took it to the back to sort it out. He came back and let me know all sales are final. The shell was not their fault but the food distributors fault and they assume no liability for what they serve.....REALLY?! Ok so I don't typically feel a strong negative annotation towards any small business, but that was wild, lame, and absolutely absurd! The food isn't even near authentic ...it's a shame to see and experience my heritage hit such a low.

Happy House is my GO TO for kimchi and Korean food in Augusta. The variety of pickled sides are so delicious - even when taken to go. You can also purchase jars of the cabbage kimchi - do it! So much better than the grocery store. While they do not have a vegetarian section on the menu, they can make several dishes vegetarian by taking away the meat. I typically get the kimchi fried rice with veggies or one of the hot pots, depending on my mood. Both are delicious choices! The owners are very nice and if taking to go, will bring the food out to your car. read more
