You know, I don't typically right reviews but this was my first time to try this place. Don't let…read morethe outside appearance of the building deter you from coming here. I placed an order at 8:15pm. I showed up around 8:30 and my food was ready. I didn't even open it, I just drove straight home. I ordered the General Tso's chicken with pork friend rice. Once I got to the house I opened it up and took my first bite. A smile ran across my face! The food was amazing. You could tell they cooked it just for me. I love Chinese food but everywhere else I have tried on the island is just ehh. I will definitely be back again.

I don't really like leaving subpar reviews. This restaurant has been on the island a long time. So…read moreI think some locals feel a bit nostalgic about it. The truth is, I didn't actually enjoy the food very much. Unfortunately, other than Panda Express, I don't think there's another Chinese restaurant here. And I would have rather had orange chicken from Panda Express than the Moo Goo Gai Pan I had for lunch at Happy Buddha. I will say this though, the service was wonderful and the building is quite interesting. Would I recommend? Nah, not really. Would I go back? Maybe, if I knew the company I was going with would be good enough for me to overlook the food.

Happy Buddha is, in my opinion, the best Chinese restaurant on Earth. Their food is great, the…read moreservice amazing, and the atmosphere? Exceptional! Personally, I love the Moo Goo Gai Pan. It's the best I've ever had! Each dish has a unique taste and texture, even when they seem the same. The combos come with egg rolls, fried rice, and sweet and sour chicken or pork, which are all exceptional as well. Not only is their food delicious, but it's also healthy. The Moo Goo Gai Pan even has bamboo chutes! All the waiters a waitresses are really nice, never getting annoyed by the complications of your orders. They even let my very picky brother change out the sweet and sour chicken for soup, and the fried rice for white rice, never even a single frown or glare. Also, everything there looks so authentic! When you walk in the door, there are two happy Buddha statues; one small and gold sitting on a table, and one large on the way to the seating area. Rumor says, if you rub the large statue's belly, you get good luck! The seating places are exquisite as well. They even have a wall made of rock!

The egg rolls are good too. The service is pretty good although I had to repeat myself a few times. I guess that's the language barrier.

I've been a happy patron of Hu's Cooking ever since they opened the year before the pandemic, but…read morebecause of their instant success and local renown from their excellent eats, speedy service, busy-but-not-crowded vibes (see: their 1000+ Yelp reviews) I've never felt the need to drop a review of my own - until just this week. On my most recent visit we ordered mapo tofu with pork intestines off the specials menu - a hybrid of two of my favorite Sichuan-style dishes. The blend of bouncy, savory morsels amidst tender, saucy tofu was at once revolutionary and so obvious; why hadn't I yet seen this at any other restaurant? And sure, innards may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's important for you to know that none of my past orders from the 50+ item menu have ever failed me, whether enjoyed in the restaurant or at home. Maybe you'd prefer the aromatic, classic, perfectly balanced three-cup chicken? Or the sweet-skinned duck, glazed so delicately that specks of sugar crystal threaten to jump off onto the plate as you pick up a juicy slice with your chopsticks? And if you're vegetarian, might you consider the punchy garlic eggplant or the wok-kissed string beans? I could go on. Do yourself a favor and come see for yourself, though I'd recommend parallel parking on the neighborhood streets behind the restaurant rather than the rocky parking lot, to save you some trouble. Bring friends and chow down family style - you'll need help covering as much of the menu as you can, but you'll definitely have to come back to try everything.

I had a craving for shrimp fried rice and the shrimp fried rice did not disappoint. Loaded with shrimp and had very good flavor over all. The bean curd Szechuan dinner special my wife got was delicious as well. While we were ordering I saw an image of fried biscuits on the screen they have behind the counter showing pics of the foods they serve. That advertising worked because it got me wanting some biscuits. They serve them with or with out sugar. I got the fried biscuits with sugar. Good stuff. One order of biscuits is alot of biscuits. Everything was delicious and for a very good price. Portion size is good as well. I also liked the restaurant's ambiance. Small place yet it had a relaxing vibe to it. Love places like that. We got to-go, but still was an all around nice experience. Will be going here again for sure.

It took a long time to take our order, she forgot we were placing a to-go order, never offered a tea refill, and did not check on us after the food was delivered -- even though we were clearly engaged, taking photos of our food, and reviewing the menu for Yelp.
