No brown rice available ;( I actually like Safeway wok flavor better but in a pinch to have a sit down it's aok and glad to have tried a local. read more

A Rita Ranch staple! Takeout: Food is always flavorful and hot! Hubby got his usual, Chicken with Mixed Vegetables-Family Meal that comes with steamed white rice, small egg drop soup, a crab puff, and a vegetable egg roll. Me, I had the savory, Beef Chow Fun noodles, with lots of thinly sliced tender beef...yum! Service was prompt, got a warm smile and welcome greeting. They just finished serving a large table of patrons, who looked extremely happy with their dining experience. Went to pick up our take-a-way and there were three other orders ready, plus passed a lady who was walking out with her p/u order. They certainly stay busy! Thank you Happy Wok!! read more

Happy Wok - Takeout-Bottom: beef chow fun top: chicken with mixed vegetables - Asian Fusion Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

I sought ought Asian food when I was in the area and came across Happy Wok. Small place in a strip mall next to Safeway. The staff was pleasant, but I was a bit put off because you have to order and pay up front before you eat. It's hard to tip when you don't know how the service or food will be. They bring the food out to you. I usually drink water with my meals. I was told it was 50 cents for a bottle. I don't like drinking out of a flimsy plastic bottle and usually drink more than 8 ounces. I should have asked for a glass and ice, again a personal preference. Lunch specials include an egg roll, soup and white rice. I ordered the shrimp with vegetables. It was in a nice brown sauce and the veggies were fresh and not overcooked. The egg drop soup was good. I didn't really care for the egg roll, but that's just a personal preference. They have a great selection on the lunch menu as well as the regular one. I saw some other dishes go by that looked interesting as well. Portion size was okay for lunch. Lunch specials are $10.50-$11.50 which is average compared to other places. The place was clean but nothing fancy. I will probably stop in when I'm in the area and hungry for Chinese food. *I want to make a note that the food in the dining room is now served on regular plates and bowls. I noticed previous reviews said the food was served in styrofoam. If that had been the case, I would not return. I don't do take out very often, partly because I hate styrofoam. I was forced to do take out during the pandemic but was glad when that was over and restaurants returned back to normal. read more

I cannot say enough good things about Happy Walk! Not only is the food consistently fresh, flavorful, and made with love, but the owner is truly exceptional. Their kindness, professionalism, and genuine care for customers stand out every single visit. You're greeted with warmth, treated with respect, and always leave feeling appreciated. It's rare to find customer service like this anymore. Happy Walk has become one of my absolute favorite spots, and I recommend it to anyone who loves great food and even better people behind it. read more

I was craving some General Tso's chicken and some noodles, so I tried out the restaurant near where I live and ordered to-go. Disappointed was an understatement. I ordered the lunch special of the General Tso's chicken and it just came with chicken and rice. Most Chinese restaurants will at least put in a couple florets of broccoli, but this had no vegetables at all. I also ordered the Beef Chow Fun and it decent. It was pretty oily, and some of the noodles were undercooked. read more

Happy Wok - Asian Fusion Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Worst Chinese food I've ever had. We ordered egg rolls, chicken low mein, General Tso's chicken and Veggie stir fry. The egg rolls had zero taste and just grease, noodles extremely bland and also lacked flavor, the chicken was inedible, and veggies extremely overdone. Safeway Chinese much better. Sad we wasted $50, am Hungry but its so bad are tossing it all in the garbage. read more

I was hoping this place was going yo he good. Maybe I caught them on an off night buy it the worst Chinese food I've ever had. Fried rice was ol and greasy wonton soup tasted soapy. Orange chicken was stale old and rubbery. Won't be going back ever. read more

I'll say 4.5. It was pretty dang good. OK, things are looking up for the east side. This is only a 13 minute drive from my house, it is in the Safeway plaza on E. Valencia in Rita Ranch. We had the Happy Family: Beef, chicken, char Siu pork, shrimp, scallops, snow peas, water chestnuts, mushrooms, broccoli, bamboo shoots, and zucchini. It said "crab meat" in the description, but there wasn't any. This was really good! The beef and chicken were SO tender, like butter in your mouth. The veggies were cooked right. The char Siu pork tasted old and didn't like it. But you know, just pick it out. This was a great choice. The wonton soup has big won tons. Broth is good, dumplings good. A large is large and can feed four. The pork egg rolls were good. Edible. Yeah, I know, I'm jaded because no one makes as good of egg rolls as Mom. But these were decent. Definitely better than Ba Dars, which were lackluster. It came with a bag of fried wonton strips. Not sure what to do with that. The rice is not the usual small grained rice that doesn't stick. It is maybe a medium grained rice that does stick a little. Definitely prefer it to the usual. Service? Well, I called it in and she said it would be 15 minutes. I get in the car and get there in 13 minutes and it is waiting for me! All hot and ready to go! Yeah, super service. We will eat here again. The beef and chicken makes it so that we want to try their other dishes with those meats in it. And for those times that I don't want to drive 25 minutes to Jun Dynasty. [See my pics of the current menu and pricing.] 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Tucson-top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs! read more

First impressions. No one in the restaurant. Boy playing on phone in the corner, person behind the counter sleeping other employees were very cold. Service was nonexistent.. I had to ask for napkins and utensils. And no one came to see if I needed anything the whole time. Food is mediator to say the least. Probably get better Chinese food at trader Joe's. Will not come back again. read more

Used to be a good spot for me to get Chinese but definitely won't be coming back. There's some shady business going on here... was told a price for food, had plenty enough money on my card to get said food (I called my card multiple times in the store and when I left) but my card kept declining. Either they're charging more and not telling customers or theres hidden fees and not telling customer's. Either way, I'd steer clear unfortunately. read more

Food is ok, it is the McDonalds of Chinese food. They have dining in but you have to stand in line, order from paper menus, and pre-pay. Your food is delivered in disposable containers with plastic utensils. They either refuse to hire any dining room help or are still living in the pandemic era still. I will likely not be back. read more

The food is excellent! The staff is so nice! Food was delivered hot and so tasty. Best in Tucson. Prices are great too! Such a great experience! Our favorite place! read more

I went to this place 2 times in the past for school, one in 2021 and the second time in 2025. The food was great both times and they had excellent service read more

Happy Wok is hands down one of the best Chinese restaurants around. The food is consistently delicious, but what really makes this place special is the owner. They are so kind, welcoming, and genuinely care about their customers. The service is always top-notch, and it feels like you're supporting a place that truly values people. Highly recommend! read more

The egg drop soup test is an important test to pass in order for me to like a Chinese food restaurant. If the soup has a good flavor and a thicker consistency than just plain broth, you're usually also going to get a good main dish. Happy to say both are true at Happy Wok - a no frills spot where the food is served in styrofoam regardless if you eat in or take out. I ate in and the food came out so fast I wondered if it was not freshly prepared. Glad to say it definitively was and it was as good as the soup! It did come out of the kitchen at just slightly cooler than the surface of the sun, but once it cooled down, I was able to enjoy the nice heat of my kung pao chicken, well appointed with meat and fresh vegetables. Definitely a place to come back to - or for you to try out for the first time. read more

The food is trash. I came here because of the yelp reviews, but the noddles were so soggy and the meat tasted so hard from the orange chicken. Very disappointing. The white rice was not fresh and the chicken for teriyaki was rubbery. The photos looked promising, but I guess not. Definitely was a waste of my money $70 down the drain read more

Just stopped in before catching a flight out for a late lunch. Their lunch specials were still active I ordered their orange chicken that is served with choice of soup, egg roll, and steamed rice. I opted for their hot sour soup & upgraded to fried rice. Their soups are the thick, creamy-type, and I'm not a fan; I prefer the old-fashion broth type (if you know, you know!) Egg roll, perfect! Fried rice? Perfect! Orange chicken? Tasty! My hubby had the chicken lo mein & that was very good, too! All of our food came out fresh, and piping hot. The server didn't speak very good English, but he definitely was friendly and attentive. While there, we had the misfortune of spilling two drinks ‍ but our server was so gracious and even chuckled with us and quickly cleaned up our mess. We would definitely return. read more

Ordered takeout from here a few weeks ago. We had heard some good things so we decided to order. We ordered chicken and broccoli, chicken fried rice, sweet-and-sour chicken and a couple of egg rolls. Let me tell you, the chicken, fried rice was one of the best I've ever had! The flavor was fantastic! As far as the other stuff, while it tasted good, it didn't have a ton of flavor. Their sweet-and-sour sauce is a little on the thin side with not a lot sweet flavor. The order was ready and packed up when we got there. Everyone was very friendly. The inside looked nice, but I always seem to be turned off when one of the tables is used as an office. I think that should be done in the back. I think we would go back there in a pinch, but we may try somewhere else before hand. read more

I feel bad leaving a negative but -- I called and placed an order for takeout and the woman behind the phone was friendly so there is that! Our food only took 15min to be ready so again, there's that. The food... I ordered the crab puffs and there was no crab in any of my puffs. Just straight cream cheese. I think the chef just whispered *crab* into each dumpling before pinching it closed and frying said dumpling. Seriously there was no crab lol. The orange chicken should have just been called "orange colored sugar chicken". Because it didn't have a hint of orange and was overly sweet. The veggie fried rice was bland. The egg rolls were soggy and my kids wouldn't eat them and they haven't met a single egg roll they didn't like... until tonight. The beef lo mein was eh. The slices of beef weren't bad but the noodles weren't it. Anyway I'm sorry happy wok! My one star is for the clean and inviting ambiance your restaurant gives and another star for friendly staff. That's all, won't be back. read more

Happy Wok - Crab puffs but minus the crab - Asian Fusion Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

The worst service. I had to ask for serving spoons had to ask for two plates. Asked for pan fried noodles got boxed noodles on a plate. The sauces seemed like they were from a bottle or a sauce you buy from the Safeway. The veges undercooked also bagged from Safeway . Weird place. Not happy wok. Im not surprised they make you pay before you eat. I would have returned all the food. Ohhh hahhaa just realized they didn't offer water either. Wow read more

Best Chinese food I've had in Tucson. You can get fried rice instead of white rice any time, AND instead of pancakes with the mu shu. The mu shu is great-- and I'm a snob about such things. read more

We been here several times both eat in and to go and the food's been great every time. Hot and sour soup and wonton soup are great. Tofu and broccoli as well as Mongolian shrimp are also great. I don't mind that they serve food in to go containers when you eat in because they give you so much food that it's very easy to wrap the rest up and take it home. read more

Happy wok was a nice surprise and was honestly some of the best Chinese food I've had in Tucson! We were visiting some of our friends on that side of town and wanted to grab a bite to eat after. They recommended Happy Wok and my husband and I were not disappointed! It's in a kind of random location, in a shopping center with a Safeway. The interior was cozy with wood accents, a bar with a TV, and nice lighting. They did the work to get rid of the gross fluorescent lights! Big deal in my book! Still a little too bright for my liking, but much better than many other restaurants. Service was quick and friendly. You get wonton crisps and sweet and sour sauce. Gotta be honest--these weren't my favorite so I was a little worried about my meal. I ordered the Mongolian beef ($10.25) and fortunately it was very good! The sauce had a subtle spice--just perfect for my tastebuds--and was perfectly savory with fresh veggies. Rice served on the side wasn't super plentiful but just enough. I had enough food left over to take home for my lunch the next day. It was just as good warmed up! If I'm ever on this side of town again and am hankering for some Chinese food, I'll definitely hit this place up! read more

Amazing ! First time stopping in on my way from texas back to cali. Worth the stop, I'll be back every time I drive through. Food was quick and HOT! Absolutely delicious. Service is nice, place is clean and quiet. Ate inside and was relaxing. Asked for a spicy recommendation and ended up w the general beef. Was tasty, flavorful and plenty of food. Fried rice looks like it has pieces of bbq pork in it- just a note if you avoid that. Yum! read more

Been here a few times and every time it is great service, friendly staff, and awesome food. From the outside it doesn't impress, but the meals are always large, fresh, and filling. We have enough for leftovers each visit. The egg rolls and crab puffs come out fast, along with the chicken wing and spare rib appetizers. They always start you off with a cute bowl of noodles with sweet/sour sauce, I love putting their hot mustard on them. The hot mustard is always nice, they even give me some to take home with my leftovers every time. Keep up the great food and service, and we will keep coming back. Top 2 chinese restaurant in Rita Ranch. read more

2nd time ordering from this place and the food is excellent! And they do it super fast!! The ladies that work there are very nice and welcoming, always update you on your order and how much longer it will be. You have the option to dine in, but no one really does. We ate inside the first time and just decided to take it to go from now on. It's almost like they don't expect anyone to eat there. We have gotten the chicken and veggie lowmein. Teriyaki chicken. Broccoli and beef. House fried rice. Egg rolls. And that might be it, everything was great! read more

Stopped in for a quick & easy lunch - pretty standard American Chinese fare. A bit greasy, and no chopsticks on hand. Service was friendly and quick, and food came out fast. Lunch specials are $8 and come with rice, eggroll and soup of your choice. A decent deal if you're in the mood for something familiar! read more

We went there for lunch today. I have to say that the food was excellent. Everyone enjoyed their dishes. The hot and sour soup was really tasty (that is my test. If the soup is good the food tends to be good) and my Szechuan beef had excellent flavor, was hot, and had plenty of fresh ingredients. It could have been spicier for me but I like insanely spicy food and they have to cook for the average pallet. The service was a little slow but not too bad. If you are looking for ambiance, look elsewhere. The place feels kind of like a cafeteria. The food is served from Styrofoam containers (yes even with dine in) and plastic cutlery. If you know that going in and are more interested in the food quality then you are all set. It's a great lunch spot because of this. read more

The Happy Wok was clean and inviting. Lunch prices were very reasonable and there were plenty of lunch options. We were greeted and sat quickly. We ordered off the lunch menu all of which came with an entree, white rice, egg roll, and soup. I got the Mongolian beef with egg drop soup. The soup came out in short order with wonton crisps and sweet and sour dipping sauce. The soup was a yellow liquid base with eggs throughout. The flavor was lacking, it tasted of a bit of egg in a thick corn starchy liquid and was void of any additional texture or flavor. The remainder of the lunch was served soon after the soup. The Mongolian beef was reasonably plentiful and came with a scoop of rice and an egg roll. The beef was tender and had a good flavor, the white rice was cooked appropriately. I passed the egg roll to the wife because it was more cabbage than anything which doesn't entice me, I believe she said it was "OK". Lunch was a reasonable amount of food at a reasonable price. The service was efficient and friendly. The soup could use a lot more love and attention. read more

Solid Chinese! Standard American-fare Chinese, I just made that category up. But you know, solid standards- Sesame Chicken, Sweet and Sour Pork, Eggs Rolls... Their takeout game is much better than their dine in service is in my experience. Staff is always kind when I go in, most often for takeout. They've never taken longer than 15 minutes to fill my order. The oddest thing to me is you have to ask for peas and carrots to be added to their fried rice, it's not standard. My other half often orders fried rice at Chinese restaurants and I'd never encountered this until here. The added vegetables do not cost extra, but you did need to ask for it otherwise you'll just have the meat and rice and I think onion. read more

Decided I needed something new. Wrong choice. Ordered hot and sour soup and shrimp in lobster sauce. Soup was just so-so and the shrimp in lobster sauce was filled with phony crab. How discussing if you can't make it right just don't make it my wife makes a much different version taught to her by a Chinese friend of ours. Do this place will forever be off my list. read more

A friend told me to check this place out as I was in the area. It looks pretty unassuming. I was a tad nervous walking in because we were the only ones dining in. Usually not a positive sign. Very quickly realized we didn't care we were the only ones in there. We ordered wonton and hot/sour soup, crab puffs, and triple Hunan as well as general tso chicken. The service was great. The food was absolute fantastic. The soups broth had tons of flavor. The crab puffs didn't appear to be the normal frozen type you get at most places. The texture was fluffy and chewy, and they were piping hot. We did see tons of people coming in to get takeout. So I'm hoping they will stay in business, cuz we will definitely be back. read more

Been here several times, higher prices = higher disappointment in overall meal quality. Spicy dishes are sickly sweet, noodle dishes are mushy, fried rice dishes have lots of eggshells in them, and apps that are protein based are dry and leathery. Do not recommend. read more

Seriously excellent food. Piping hot, lots of flavor and alcohol is served. I love the Singapore noodles, flavor and spice perfection. The egg rolls, steamed dumplings, crispy wontons, beef lo mein, chicken sticks, and hot and sour soup are also fantastic.

We're so happy to have tried this place. I've been wanting Chinese food prepared with fresh ingredients and that's what I found.

Wor won ton soup delicious & not skimpy on meat and veggies. Also we appreciated the care with Covid restrictions. Everyone had a mask and social distance was respectful.
