Happy Wok - 2 item combo half and half rice/chow mien with bbq pork and mushroom chicken. Added some eggrolls and hot sweet and sour soup! Yummm - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Not very good Business seems super slow . No traffic at all . Food looks like it's overcooked in the sneeze glass . Maybe they need to get specials going . Only thing I can say is the chow mein is good , according to my wife . Won't go back again . Lady helping me looks like she don't wanna be there . Place is sad looking , no music or anything happening. Don't go here read more

I've tried it before and it was good but recently it hasn't hit the spot for me. Service is fine and the people are friendly. But its not the same as before read more

Food is ok but one of the workers (for some reason she's always there when we go) is miserable every time we go. She never says hi or "how can I help you" just looks at you until you say something??? She also never hooks it up like other workers or other wok places like Mr You's for example. Usually at other wok spots they pile it on so you have enough for two people (or at least leftovers) in one combo plate lol. The server just needs a better attitude and portions should be bigger for the price because the food quality has gone downhill over the years. I wish I could say I'd be back but I probably won't due to the increased price, bad flavor/quality of food, and bad attitude from the same employee every time we go. Hopefully they improve these things so future customers don't feel the same as I did! read more

I've ordered this two days in a row now because the family just raved about it. The portions are huge and the food is delicious and fresh and we all enjoyed it. Thank you. read more

If you're going to change your hours and close on certain days take the time to update the sites that people check for the time that you're open read more

I decided to try this place out after a couple years of not coming here...The food is a lot better the portions are good . (Both still not the same as before with original owner) but that's ok ... the lady who served me just stared at me and nodded her head... I thought that was rude . She finally said hi... but she didn't look happy to be working there . Oh well Just thought I would give an update . I hope it continues to get better with taste and quality. read more

Happy Wok - Chow mein... broccoli beef , and orange chicken. - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Happy 36th anniversary, Happy Wok! Glad to see you're still stuffing massive quantities of sweet, addicting tangerine/"candy" chicken in a to-go box that can feed a person an entire day for under $13 read more

Happy Wok - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

I have been here a few times and the portions are great. there are a lot of options and I usually get a 2 item combo with half chow mein and half rice. Then for the two items this time I got the spicy tangerine chicken and regular tangerine chicken. read more

I've been eating here for over 30 years. I was in the area today I so decided to swing by... The interior has had a little bit of a refresh and the food is a little different than I remember but it was still so good. I couldn't decide between tangerine or spicy tangerine chicken so I got both.... I don't think the spicy one is much hotter than the regular version though. The chow mein noodles are still thick and greasy and glorious. As a kid, it was a guilty pleasure to eat a few bites of leftovers out of my container out of the fridge (yes, cold!) and honestly I'm looking forward to a few bites of cold noodles tomorrow. Chicken is saucier than I remember, but that's a good thing! read more

Food is horrible every thing is so salty it's like eating a salty. So salty. Can't even eat anything

Can't believe this place is still open! I used to go here quite often when I was a kid, so that was like almost 30 years ago. Was in the area and I was craving some Chinese food so thought I might give it another shot. I was hoping they would overfill the box like those other places do at some of those other Chinese food places you see in those viral videos, but they didn't. However, it is still a good amount of food for around $14. They're at least a lot more generous with their portions than Panda Express. The rice was not that good, I should've gotten just noodles. The bbq pork was ok and the tangerine chicken was a little too hard, but had ok flavor. Looked like they had a good variety, think I'll try something else next time instead of so much meat. It did its job, filled me up, wasn't terrible. If you want enough food for two meals at a decent price, can't go wrong with Happy Wok! read more

Happy Wok - 2 Item combo with bbq pork and tangerine chicken - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

I had a take out order. This was my first order from Star Wok. The Lemon Chicken was enough for at least 2 meals and super delicious. I noticed they also have delivery service, so they are sure to be a regular for me! read more

UNSAFE FOOD PRACTICES. When I walked in, I immediately detected the smell of sterno (canned heat). I didn't think about it too much but when I dug into the noodles, I immediately notice they were very cold. the Tangerine chicken and BBQ pork tasted as if they had been sitting for a considerable amount of time. I let the staff know and she offered to microwave the food for me, but my immediate concern was the fact that they were serving food that has been kept at an improper temperature for who knows how long. I asked the staff if the steam table was broken and she replied "it's warm". I have been coming to this place since the 90's, but the last few years have been questionable at best. If you want good Chinese fast food, go to the other location (not related). read more

Seems that I go there the trays are smaller and you get less food The food is good, but it seems you get less and less when you go.

I ordered a two item combo. Tangerine chicken and king pow chicken. I got food poisoning. I had three bouts of diarrhea and puffy hands. Server was cranky, gave me side eye when I grabbed a bunch of thin napkins, and charged me 14 dollars even though the sign said 12. Keep up the great work! read more

Service was friendly and food was good. They definitely give bigger portions than Panda Express read more

Happy Wok - 2 Entrees Combo with Chow Mein, Tangerine Chicken, & Teriyaki Chicken (I Asked for No Teriyaki Sauce) - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

The first thing you must try here is their cream cheese beef rolls. If you love cream cheese and anything rolled in an egg roll wrapper this is for you! It's so good. I would give five stars just for this item alone. Happy Wok is located in a plaza with tons of food choices and I keep on coming here when I need something quick for dinner. I have always been a fan of fast Chinese food and this place has been my go-to place since it's on my way home. I usually order a two-item combo. Chow mein is what I always get here. Chinese fast food is the only place I would pick noodles over rice. It's just so good. I have tried different items but my favorite would be the tangerine chicken. It does come in spicy if you wanted a bit of a kick. I have also tried beef and broccoli and teriyaki chicken and both were cooked well. They do offer combos but also sell a la carte. They do family meals and catering. Service has always been so nice. Overall, come check this place out, and don't forget the cream cheese beef rolls. read more

This is our OG spot for Americanized Chinese. We have been coming here for decades .. we love & usually order the bbq pork, black pepper chicken (my hubby's fave), tangerine chicken (original and spicy), chicken and string beans, broccoli beef, and kung pao chicken (sometimes also the jalapeño & garlic chicken).. with half steamed rice and noodles!! Portion sizes vary depending on server but usually are very hearty portions. read more

Happy Wok - spicy Tangerine Chicken Tangerine Chicken BBQ Pork Chow Mein Beef & Broccoli Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

If you're craving American Chinese food, this is the place to go. Panda Express no more. I honestly liked every single thing I got, so I say try them all! Chow Mein and Fried Rice are both must-orders for your base. I loved how the noodles were on the thicker side which gave it such a good chew since I'm all about texture. I'm a big fan of chicken so I ordered the Spicy Tangerine Chicken, Teriyaki Chicken, and Spicy Garlic Black Bean Chicken. I'm also a big fan of spice so I was surprised that the food actually had a slight bit of a kick to it. The BBQ Pork was just alright though since I expected it to be more tender. It definitely had flavor but it was a little on the tough side. The Cream Cheese Beef Egg Roll was served fresh so the outside was so crispy and the inside was so creamy. read more

I usually get the two combo with tangerine chicken and mushroom chicken with chow mein and fried rice. Their green beans, teriyaki chicken are good as well. Their spicy tangerine chicken was a bit hard since it was out for a while. They give a good portion size for the entrees and the fried rice and chow mein were fresh when I ordered. The staff was nice. read more

Yum! I love little take out spots like this! My frequent go to has been tasty goody for years but I finally tried this spot out and it did not disappoint! After seeing it so many times on TikTok, my brother and I finally went to go see what it was about. Great prices for the amount of food you're getting. You can literally feed 2 or more people from a 2-item plate. Their tangerine chicken is so good and I just love the chow mein. Can't wait to go back to try out other items! read more

Happy Wok - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

Was craving some Chinese food and have been trying to find a new place to frequent and just haven't found the right spot. Not until I found this place! Wow the tangerine chicken was perfect! So crispy and whoever coated the chicken, it was the perfect amount of batter. The noodles were good as well. I also got the black pepper chicken and it was not to my liking but the flavor was good. I'm just not a huge fan of black pepper but my boyfriend really liked it. Service was like your typical steam tables,quick! There was plenty of seating inside. Will return next time I'm craving Chinese food because this will now be my go to stop. read more

Happy Wok has been an iconic restaurant and small business owned entity for as long as I can remember. I first ate at that restaurant with my husband when we first started dating. That was over 30 years ago! Throughout the years, the recipes has not changed and there was only one owner until just a few years ago. I can honestly say that owner, Dianne, has turned this iconic restaurant until something even more amazing. She uses the same core recipes but spiced it up. She remodeled the restaurant with the same feel but just a touch of trendiness. When you walk in, there are nothing but smiles and laughter as they tell you welcome. The food is fresh and piping hot. They are definitely not stingy on the proportions that they give you, and the owner has mentioned several times that she tries her best to keep the pricing fair for the community. My ultimate favorite dishes are the legendary tangerine chicken and their barbecue pork. She even added extra freshness and now serves boba drinks! I will definitely drive over 30 miles to keep coming here. read more

Haven't been here since 2009, but I remember their food was great and served generously. I ordered a bowl after reading recent bad reviews, even though it's $11...expensive for a bowl. The noodles were not even touching the middle of the bowl; I asked for more,she only picked up three noodles. I was so annoyed I left. NEVERR again. Sad to see this too. read more

We ordered a lot for event . For mixed chicken veggies dishes, we pretty much just get veggies with tiny bits of chicken. Very disappointed . read more

The funny thing about living in an area with tons of authentic Chinese restaurants is that it's actually kinda hard to find a place with greasy Chinese food to-go. I actually would not have found out about Happy Wok if not for the SGV Eats group on Facebook. So once I did, well I had to try it. Got a two item combo with broccoli beef, BBQ pork, and chow mein. I liked the chow mein a lot, it's pretty hard to mess this up. Broccoli beef and BBQ pork were solid, nothing to write home about. I probably should've ordered something else other than the broccoli beef because I definitely got more broccoli than beef, but eh that's what you get lol. Service was ok. I definitely got someone who was way more stingier with the entrees, because the pics I see on Yelp have combo plates that are far more generous than what I got. Overall, I thought Happy Wok was solid but I expected a tad more given some of the reviews on here. I'll try it again and probably try some other food options. read more

Happy Wok - Chinese Near Me - Rowland Heights, California

LOCATION - Happy Wok can be found in a large plaza that includes lots of shops and restaurants, like Daiso. The layout of the plaza is a little strange in terms of entering one way and exiting another just to park. Not the biggest deal. FOOD - I got their two-item combo, featuring their Orange Chicken, Tangerine Chicken (spicy), Mushroom entree, as well as their Beef & Broccoli. All were really delicious but I will say, it did taste slightly stale like it's been out for awhile and not super fresh. That's the reason I'm giving it 4 of 5 stars. The Chow Mein was amazing too! Overall, really good, wholesome Chinese food. SERVICE - I believe we were served by Bonnie. There were quite a few people waiting for their food but I'm assuming they got something made to order. Regardless, they were waiting for a long time. Overall, the service was good, not great but it wouldn't stop me from coming back! read more

Wanted to try the famous delicious food in the area and Yelp sent me here for Chinese fast food. Ordered one item combo with mushroom chicken. Food was delicious and there was a ton of it. Don't think about the small portions from the bear fast food chain. There was plenty of fried rice, chow mein and chicken. I flike 80% and was stuffed. Prices are reasonable. There's limited indoor seating. I surmised from the people coming in that this may be a dependable neighborhood chain going back many years. Looking forward to eating here again. read more

I've lived in Rowland Heights 41 years and have been coming to Happy Wok for a long time. I've referred friends and family here and it's a go to for Chinese fast food due to the price and portion size. HOWEVER, today I changed my mind. I was shocked when I saw the portion size and how much I was being charged. The Happy Wok I was used to is gone! I got a bowl and the portion size was ridiculous and plus tax it was $10.82?!! You have to be kidding me. There was a customer ahead of me that asked for more orange chicken in her plate, wow! My family and I will not be frequenting anymore and it's sad. read more
