    Usually food is good, but today spareribs were over cooked and hard. I do not recommend the boneless spareribs.

    The struggle is real when you're looking for an authentic mom-and-pop Chinese spot on a Monday;…read moremost in the area are closed! That's why finding Happy Garden was such a relief--it's truly the last of a dying breed. Tucked away in a small town, Happy Garden offers that classic dine-and-takeout experience you just can't duplicate. Stepping inside and tasting the food is an instant trip back in time, delivering those unmistakable classic Chinese takeout flavors from the 90s. Everything on the menu was a hit, from the rich and comforting Egg Drop Soup to the perfect Sweet-and-Sour Chicken. The quality is consistent, traditional, and deeply satisfying. Adding to the experience, the customer service was warm and genuinely good. For food this classic and comforting, I am more than willing to make the 30-minute drive. If your craving demands authentic, old-school Chinese cuisine, Happy Garden is the destination.

    I've been going to Happy Garden for 2 years now, ever since I moved to Gibsonville. It's been my…read morego-to for Chinese take-out. The food is always really good -- though to be fair, I usually stick to the same few things: orange chicken, dumplings, beef and broccoli, and their rice. For Mother's Day weekend, I was craving Chinese again and decided to branch out and try the 'house special chow mein.' Because they offer both chow mein and lo mein on the menu, I did a quick search (ChatGPT and Google) to make sure I understood the difference. Everything I read said they're basically the same kind of egg noodles, just cooked differently -- lo mein is soft and saucy, chow mein is tossed in sauce and lightly fried for a crispier texture. Even on Happy Garden's own website, it says under Chow Mein that the dish comes with rice and egg noodles. And "house special" usually means a mix of meats and veggies, which sounded perfect. When I got the order home, I opened it and realized the chow mein was literally just cabbage and other veggies, with shrimp, chicken, and what looked like duck. No noodles. Now, I could've let that slide -- I get that every restaurant does things a little differently. But this was the first time I've ever gotten chow mein with zero noodles. So I decided to call and explain what I expected and what I got. The woman who answered was hard to understand, and after I explained the issue, she took my name and number. When she repeated it back, it didn't sound right, so I repeated it -- and she snapped, "umm yeah, that's what I said!" I apologized and said it just didn't sound right, I was just clarifying. She said the manager would need to call me back and review the order. About 5 minutes later, the manager calls. I start explaining what happened, and she keeps interrupting. So I pause and let her finish -- she goes on about how they make their chow mein. I say, "I get that, I'm just saying mine didn't come with noodles, and I expected noodles based on what chow mein usually is and what your webs--" She cuts me off with "What website!? What website!? Where did you order!?" I tell her, "Ma'am, I ordered from YOUR website, happygardengibsonville.com or whatever. It says under the chow mein category that it comes with rice and rice noodles. So that confirmed, in my mind, I'd be getting noodles." Now, if she had just calmly let me finish and then explained that their chow mein doesn't come with noodles -- just those little fried noodle chips in a bag -- I would've said, "ah, bummer. Can I place an order for lo mein?" That would've been fine. But the tone, the attitude, the defensiveness, the unwillingness to even hear what I ordered and why I expected what I did -- that's what killed it for me. So unfortunately, even though they're right down the street and I've always been happy to support local, I won't be going back. They don't deserve my business.

    I was hangry for some Chinese food and wanted something really good. I looked on Yelp and the…read moreoriginal place I wanted to try was close for the day. I then asked my boyfriend what he recommended and he said, Hibachi House. I looked on Yelp at this place and the ratings are no bueno, but my boyfriend insisted I try it for myself and I not base it reviews. I was extremely hesitant, but took his word for it. I order the dinner combo plate which came with rice if choice and 1 entree and egg roll. I ordered sweet and sour chicken with bbq pork fried rice. The staff was friendly and even help with suggestions. The restaurant itself is super clean, but when I went it was only 2 people dining in and 1 person picking up Togo. I get my food and the portion are okay, I don't think it was worth $12 for what I received. I get back to go eat it and the first thing I notice is there is absolutely no bbq pork in my fried rice. The other thing I noticed is my chicken definitely wasn't sweet and sour chicken. My boyfriend tried to make excuses and was like just try the food.. ugh! I try the chicken first and yep! It wasn't sweet and sour, but orange chicken. I will say, the chicken was tender juicy and very flavorful. Now to the fried rice... it was a complete disappointment. The rice for 1 was undercooked there were no bbq pork in it, it was just cooked in soy sauce with an unnecessary about of chopped onions on it, it was disgusting. I hate to give it 2 stars, but I should have went with my gut and went somewhere else. This place isn't it. Save your money and good elsewhere.

    I got hibachi chicken & shrimp with broccoli as the only vegetable. I got white rice because their…read morefried rice has onions. It's also worth mentioning the person who took my order has to ask someone else if anything was in the fried rice when I asked. This wasn't the typical hibachi I am used to and was much closer to regular Chinese food than hibachi as far as how it was prepared and its taste. I may go back to try a Chinese dish but certainly would not recommend the hibachi. This is ironic considering the name. The customer service wasn't out of this world, but no one was mean, rude or disrespectful.
