This restaurant is close to the INOVA medical complexMosaic, across from BMW Fairfax. The lunch special was amazing for $12.95. I chose chicken pad Thai and spring roll. Both came out piping hot and delicious. The portion was large and I brought half home with me. They have approx. 10 tables, pleasant music and fresh flowers on each table. My server (Kate) was attentive and very sweet. I highly recommend trying this restaurant, it’s always nice to support a local business.

Happy Thai is delicious every time I order. My husband raves about the Pad Thai; I’ve enjoyed the pad krapow and lo mein. The steamed dumplings are packed with flavor and the shrimp rolls are perfectly crisp. I came in for carry out and the atmosphere was inviting and people were very friendly.
