Happy China Reviews
The server is really friendly and the dishes are really authentic. Sichuan flavor chicken and fried noodles are really good.
WORST service in Durham. I knew from past experience that the service is slow at this restaurant, so for Christmas, I ordered online at 4:45. My food was not ready until 6:40 pm. ORders were coming out that were placed long after mine. The man hosting denied he was the manager as others, both diners and take out patrons, were complaining about similar issues. They KNOW Christmas is going to be busy yet they had minimal service staff and the apparent manager was acting as host,...read full review

Happy China is a Chinese restaurant that offers great takeout food with kind service and reasonable pricing. They can modify dishes to accommodate gluten intolerance. The menu includes kid-friendly options, such as a swing set, and vegetarian choices, such as tofu and cabbage dishes. The restaurant has a parking lot with 20-30 spaces and is wheelchair accessible, although the entrance lacks a wheelchair button. The food is delicious, with standout dishes like crab rangoons, egg rolls, white rice, and General Tso's tofu. The restaurant is located in a building that used to be an 80s McDonald's, adding a nostalgic touch. The staff, especially a friendly and hardworking woman, always greets customers with a smile and provides excellent service. Many dishes, including the stir-fried pork intestines (溜肥肠), are cooked to perfection with rich, savory seasoning, making them highly recommended. The menu also features pork sausage, dry-pot frog, and squirrel mandarin fish, all cooked with care and full of flavor. While the busy front and phone lines can lead to longer wait times if not ordered ahead, the authentic taste and considerate service make Happy China a satisfying dining choice.
