Happy House Chinese Restaurant

In an oasis of restaurant stops, this one shines through in Grandview. With 10 or more of your favorite Chinese dishes listed on the wall and combo options that come with fried rice and an egg roll for under $10 there’s plenty of reasons why you’ll leave happy. But best of all, forgot to call ahead and have to order take out …. before you can say happy house 10x in a row, the cashier will call you to come get your brown bag full of appetite-satisfying magic.

I love this place, we always get delivery from there, but we finally ate in the other day. It is your basic Chinese takeaway, with some basic tables with bench seating on one side. Drinks are in cans and 20oz bottles, and the food is brought out to you, piping hot. It's very much Americanized Chinese, or at least what I eat is, the Kung Pao chicken. If that is your thing, it's a great place to eat. They have combination plates all day which is appreciated for those of us who are budget minded, with egg rolls included, and they also have lunch specials that include a soda instead.

This is really a 3.5. Perfectly acceptable Chinese food, but nothing special. I had orange chicken and the serving for the chicken was kind of small. Like 6-8 pieces of chicken. The taste was kind of bland too. I don’t expect the world of takeout Chinese, but I’ve had orange chicken at 10-20 different places across town and this is easily in the lowest 3-5. It’s not bad! But it’s just very incredibly average. The staff was really nice though.

I ate a delicious "late lunch" [or "early supper"] earlier today [9-30-2022] at Happy House Chinese Restaurant at 1267 W. Fifth Ave. in the "Fifth by Northwest" neighborhood of Columbus I have eaten at Happy House Chinese Restaurant occasionally over the years; it had been quite a while since I had most recently eaten there. My food choice earlier today had been House Fried Rice [served with chicken, pork, and shrimp]. At the ordering counter, I learned that there are two sizes of House Fried Rice [small and large] that are not mentioned on the website. I decided to order "small" because the price for "small" had matched the price that I had been expecting to pay based on what I had seen on the website. While waiting for my food, I enjoyed walking around the small dining room and looking at the many images that have been painted onto the walls that greatly enhance the interior environment at Happy House Chinese Restaurant. My House Fried Rice had been superbly delicious. I often order fried rice when I am at an Asian restaurant because fried rice is usually simple, quick, and inexpensive; the House Fried Rice that I had eaten at Happy House Chinese Restaurant had been far more delicious than I had been expecting. If you are in the "Fifth by Northwest" neighborhood of Columbus and want to eat some delicious Chinese food in a "no-frills" restaurant that has quick service, I strongly recommend Happy House Chinese Restaurant.

Yummy!! My office is really close to Happy House Chinese Restaurant and I decided to give it a try after I tried all Asian restaurant around. It was good! I got General Tso chicken during lunch special, it comes with drink for $7.95 and it worth it even they gave only 2 pieces of broccoli. I told my co-workers to try them and they all love it, very happy that I have a good place to for lunch, plus the service was nice, food came pretty quick. I ordered online and could pickup in 10mins!
