Happened to be in Newton at lunchtime. Ordered my old standby: chicken and broccoli, a little spicy, with white rice. FINALLY: after living in New Jersey for 8 months I found excellent Chinese food takeout. Happy Wok does have a few tables. Street parking. Friendly service. Good prices. My only regret is that I don't live nearby. I would definitely go back. I recommend it. read more

Ate here before a show at the Newton Theater which is right across the street. I had a general tso's chicken combo and a wonton soup. It was made just the way I like it. Thin batter and thin sauce. Nice and crunchy too. Pork fried rice had a good flavor and big pieces of Chinese pork. The egg roll was fresh. The wonton soup broth was dark and flavorful and came with five wontons and a big bag of crunchy noodles. Washed it all down with an ice cold can of Diet Coke. The woman who served me was very friendly. I will definitely be back. read more

Was surprised to find three Chinese take-out places in the area (I'm not that familiar with this part of New Jersey). This one was rated highest on yelp and the prices seemed reasonable so we gave it a shot. Ordered Chicken Chow Ho Fun, Pepper Steak, Wonton soup, Honey Chicken, eggroll, rice, etc. Everything was really good; better than your average corner takeout spot, and the prices were OK to boot. Every other restaurant on this block seemed to have entree prices twice as high. The restaurant itself is a touch run-down but they do have a small dine-in area and the owners (?) kids were playing up front which was adorable. I would definitely put Happy Wok in heavy rotation if I lived in the area. Pro-tips: -They don't automatically provide utensils, napkins, or soy/duck sauce, but they have large bins up front where you can help yourself to however much you need. This is actually really smart and ecologically conscious - I wonder how many plastic forks (automatically stuck in the Chinese takeout bag at other restaurants) get thrown away every day by people who don't need them. -I only found out after I went (by reading another review) that they have parking behind the restaurant. I didn't know this and since it was Saturday night, there was no street parking, but I did go only 1.5 blocks up and find a municipal lot to park in. read more

Best Wonton soup around! Always quick and friendly. Never had a problem here. Generous portions

Today is May 28, 2024. I just ordered two orders of chicken wings. TERRIBLE!! They were already small and tiny. They fried them so hard that I ate one and threw the rest in the garbage. I work at the Newton Local office on east Clinton street. I will never order chicken wings again. They were the worse chicken wings I've ever had. read more

One of the better Chinese restaurants in the area. Food is delicious, good sized portions, and fairly priced. The staff is friendly. We get takeout for home, or the office to which they deliver. The biggest downside is that even before COVID, there were only maybe 6 tables for eat in. read more

Happy Family was filled with broccoli, but precious little of anything else. If you like Broccoli then you will love the food here. Egg Rolls were dry as a bone, and so crispy that they must have sat in the deep fryer for decades. The WonTon soup was too salty, and the ... well, forget it. Never again. $44 out the window. However, the poor food was prepared really quickly, guess it doesn't take long to deep fry an egg roll, or cook broccoli. Pretty lady behind counter. That's the best I can say... read more

Delivery was incredibly fast and the food was genuinely very good. We've been spoiled by our last Chinese place and we're weary of trying a new one since we moved to this area but this one hit it out of the park. Also the delivery driver was really nice and wore a mask for delivery. read more

Happy Wok - a variety of food items on a table - Chinese Near Me - Newton, New Jersey

Every time I come here for the last 20+ years, the food is great and fresh. When you walk in late at night, you see the owner's family enjoying a family dinner together with there kids which shows how much they care and eat the save good food they serve you. The people that serve your food are always very nice and deserve your business because they obviously work so hard at it. Never had a single thing from there that wasn't done right or taste the way it should. read more

Very Pretty Lady Who Took My Order, Her Dauther Was Their That Monday Due To The Memorial Holiday. Food Was Delicious. Thanks Totally Recommend This Place When Your In Town. read more

So far thee BEST Chinese food I've had in Sussex county AND they deliver which is a plus!!

I ordered from them, a hour and a half later I call to find out I'm not getting my food. I have ordered and had it delivered many times all of a sudden they decided the order must be over $35 or they won't deliver it. None of my orders are even over $30. read more

I've eaten from here before and never had an issue before but while eating my chicken and broccoli I found a shriveled up maggot. Never eating from here again. read more

Happy Wok - Maggot found in my meal. - Chinese Near Me - Newton, New Jersey

Good Chinese food, but disappointingly, they no longer have sushi..... I was really delicious... now I have to elsewhere

After a long day at work I went to pick up my dinner which was a boneless spare rib combination. The meat was completely overdone almost charred beyond recognition. I found this out of course after I brought it home and I still tried to eat as much as I could because I was hungry. I then called the restaurant and spoke with the manager or owner who gave me my food. Manager informed me that sometimes the meat is overdone this way and he consented to give me a full refund. The refund never showed up. They have now lost regular business for me forever. Poor way to run a business. Stay away unless you are willing to eat mediocre food. read more

Always order from here. Food is really decent. But they are rude as anything! They made a mistake on my rice by not cooking it well. I asked for beef fried rice instead and said they can't do it bc the price is different. They come and bang on my window like they the police and we get into a yelling match and he's telling me he's going to call the cops on me! food not even worth the disrespect read more

Friendly family catered business, that has amazingly fresh & tasty sushi! We have never been disappointed with their service or food. We enjoy having their sushi delivered two towns away, always with polite personnel. The restaurant is located across the street from the Newton Theater, which we find enjoyable after a local concert. Parking is available off the busy Main Street, off to the side of the building, where there is a huge parking lot, with a dedicated area & free parking. read more

I Order here whenever I want Chinese food, sushi, or one of there really good smoothies. There prices are about the same as any other Chinese in the area. There best deal for me is the sushi specials it's something like 11$ for 3 decent sized sushi roles and a salad!! There delivery is always on time and if you feel like eating there they have a nice little setup! -try the smoothies! read more

Nothing fancy, routine Chinese dishes are there, but nothing like at home..(No fried scallops, crab sticks, no plantains,(etc) Stick with regular fare, I usually order Veggie dishes, or shrimp dishes..Service is quick, egg rolls & such are plentiful, and you can walk in and place your order as well as on the phone.. read more

Love this tiny little family owned take out place. It's not much more than a lunchoenette with a few tables but all the meals are great and made with fresh ingredients. Stick with the classics and you can't go.wrong. The Dim Sum, dumplings, and won ton soup are hits in my house. Can't beat the prices either. read more

Happy Wok - Chinese Near Me - Newton, New Jersey

Charged me $4.95 for a small pork fried and the food is sub par if that. Needs much improvement if they want to keep me as a customer.

Recently moved to Newton. Am slowly branching out and trying to local restaurants. We tried happy wok the other evening. Ordering online is very easy and convenient. The time from order to ready was very short. I ordered Sushi which is always a risky option when your unfamiliar with a particular restaurant, I ordered a salmon and avocado role, which most importantly tasted good and was fresh and didn't make me sick. Less importantly I ordered a salmon and AVOCADO roll and it ended up having cucumber. Which didn't bother me other than not being what I ordered. Again not a huge deal. The other stuff I ordered was as expected. The shrimp egg roll was mediocre. The shrimp was soft with no texture. Overall I will definitely be eating here again. They offer delivery so that's next to try in the future. read more

Great Chinese food! That says a lot since we ourselves used to own a Chinese restaurant! I've tried ho ho's and they were the worst and you can not let decor fool you about the quality of food like chunbo. Happy wok is a small establishment but by far the best Chinese in Newton! Not too greasy, very flavorful and the hot and sour soup is very good! (You can always tell the caliber of a place by their hot and sour soup and what goes in it!) delivery is always punctual and they are always willing to accept a coupon. While it's not really dine-in (you can but its small) it doesn't matter because it's Great food and great service right to your door! read more

Very good experience as far as Thai/sushi takeout from a Chinese joint is concerned. Very nice employees, Thai curries were on point, spicy fried rice was a little off, but I had no complaints of the assortment of spicy tuna/tuna/salmon avocado/dragon rolls ordered. The wasabi was weak if I had to complain, but if you do sushi take out you already have your own preferred wasabi in the fridge. Can't beat these prices though. read more

I ordered from here the other night. Ordered simple stuff like chicken and broccoli. I did not like the chicken and broccoli at all! It was absolutely disgusting!!!! I also had won ton soup. I think the pork in the soup was spoiled. Nothing at all tasted good. This place is very inconsistent one order can taste amazing and a month later totally different! If a customer writes down please make fresh on their online order maybe try a little harder to serve them edible food!! Even my cats didn't eat the chicken or pork!! Total garbage the last three times I've ordered from them. Other than the ribs I will not be ordering from them anymore. read more

Really great family owned Chinese food place. Definitely for take out, not sit down, but they have some of the best Chinese dishes in town. My family always goes here and we love it read more

Yummy sushi always fresh! Love the order online feature as well. Very prompt delivery.

I have gotten food here before and it is great! I purchased food for my family and each person was loving their meals! I like the fact that it is not too salty. Especially liked the egg rolls which were not greasy at all. It is unfortunate that I don't live very close or I would make this my regular Chinese take out restaurant. Try it!!! read more

Best Chinese take-out I have had in years. Bye-bye Chun Bo.

***OUR CREDIT CARD SECURITY WAS BREACHED*** I ordered dinner for my family online last night, and then called in the credit card info, as instructed at the end of the order. I was told this is for security purposes. After not receiving my delivery after over an hour had passed, I called back to ask where it was. I received multiple apologies, and an assurance that it would arrive in a few minutes, nice and hot. In other words, they'd not even put it together yet. I confirmed our address, and that the card was charged. When the delivery girl arrived, another 20 minutes later, she told my husband he had to pay for the order. He told her he already had, with his credit card. The delivery girl proceeded to call the restaurant and read from the paper in her hand, my husband's ENTIRE card number, expiration date, and security code. She was loud enough for me to hear two rooms away, and since she was in the apartment hallway, anyone in the three apartments around us could've very easily heard her, as well. So much for security! As a result of this whole ordeal (not so much the wait because busy nights happen, but the privacy/security breach is inexcusable), we will not be giving any more of our business to them. read more
