My favorite Chinese spot in Bakersfield, but it's a stupidly long drive from where I live. Unfortunately, the coffee location is permanently closed now. Absolute tragedy for a big back legend like myself. read more

My absolute favorite place to get some fast Chinese food. They load it up the portions also ! They have a great selection of food. Service is always great and they have Thai tea !! Friendly family atmosphere. read more

You get great food at a decent price! The lemon shrimp is awesome! They give you lots of food! I would have liked more beef than broccoli but everything else is great! read more

I have never walked out of a restaurant before I even tried to the food. It's unfortunate because the reason why I walked in there was because of the social media presence I've encountered. The food looked so tempting and appetizing. I wanted some quick Chinese food to take home after grocery shopping next door. Well... when I walked in... saw the cook moving fried meat over to the stove. I was assuming he was going to start cooking. It looked sanitary enough because he was wearing gloves. However, in the same moment, right after he packs meat over yo the stove, he then pulls chemicals from under a counter, sprays something off, wiped it clean, AND then moved over to the stove to start cooking. No. He did not wash his hands. No. He did not change his gloves. Honestly, that's when I walked out. I hope that this is NOT their usual way of cooking. However. I will not be back at all. read more

I was not a fan, sorry Happy Dragon. Definitely not your typical Chinese fast food. If you look at my picture, I ordered sweet & sour chicken and they gave me fried chicken with no sweet & sour sauce. Thank goodness for panda because I found an extra teriyaki packet in my drawer to fix that issue. The kung pao chicken didn't taste like the typical kung pao. It had a sweetness to it, not sure how I felt about it. Anyway, food is okay and I don't see myself coming back. It just wasn't my cup of tea. Food is not authentically Chinese and there were no Chinese people in the back. There's a lot of people coming to this spot, so they seem to be doing well. The best item I got was the potstickers. It seemed like the frozen ones that come in the bag, but it was good. Parking can be a little crazy, but not too bad. I think you should still check this place out for your own experience. You never know, you might love it and it was just my experience. I would rather just go to Panda Express or China Bistro. read more

Beef and broccoli doesn't come with carrots. Hence the name is only BEEF & BROCCOLI. SWEET & SOUR CHICKEN comes with the sauce on it, NOT TO THE SIDE. Rice is horrible, hard, and stale. read more

The food was fresh and tasty. This is my second time eating here so I tried something different and I wasn't disappointed. read more

Happy Dragon - Spicy chicken, bbq pork, and coconut shrimp - Chinese Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Love Happy Dragon! On Tuesdays they have "Bowl Tuesday" 2 bowls and 2 drinks for $15.99. They're always very friendly! Their dragon soup is a family favorite, especially when under the weather or on a cold day. read more

This place is new to the area and I believe they took over and rebranded an older Chinese food restaurant. The overall feel of this place is good. It's nice and clean and it's a pretty quick in and out for an order. You can also call ahead an order, which is always nice with larger orders. I've had a couple meals here, which have always been fresh and hot. Seems like a great place to grab some Chinese. I would compare it to a better and fresher Panda and around the same price point. read more

Nasty the only thing good was the white rice. Some of the food that supposed to be spicy was sweet. And the orange chicken tasted like it been sitting there for a while. I will not recommend it read more

Came back to try Happy Dragon again and was not disappointed. So happy I gave them another chance. It's understandable that they may have ran out of lids for the soup since it was their grand opening. If you are near Panama stop by and give them a try read more

Hands down best Chinese food nv have dried out chicken service is amazing my daughter and wife love it too

Good food, generous portions and fair prices. Tuesday special is of great value, including a bowl and a drink for 2, @$15.

Very friendly but there was no teriyaki sauce on our teriyaki chicken, the teriyaki chicken alone seemed like it was completely cooked in cinnamon. The chow mein and rice it got on all tasted like cinnamon, I couldn't even finish the food. read more

Food is great. Probably the best Chinese fast food in town. The orange chicken had a great crunch the noodles had a great taste.

I have been here 3-4 times and the only time it was actually good was when they first opened. I ordered the jalapeno chicken and chow mein bowl. The chicken is too hard over cooked, chow mein was oily, egg rolls cold. I couldn't even eat half of my bowl. The service was okay employee didn't seem to like to be there. read more

Very delicious food, staff was great & friendly very helpful & patient while we were ordering for takeout. Restaurant was clean, didn't go in restrooms, but so far everything else was clean. The food was served to a good portion, bbq pork was delicious definitely will buy again, noodles was fresh & delicious, the only thing was the jalapeño chicken, it was delicious but it wasn't our favorite it does need a lil improvement it was a lil too soggy but other than that it wasn't to the point that it's nasty since the flavor itself is very good. Thank you read more

Sooooo much food for a decent price. They gave me so much food, i worked out my biceps with it. Lol. The chowmein and fried rice were slightly on yhe bland side but it was perfect to go with their entrees as they were well seasoned. All entrees had spicy kick to it, including honey chicken, which was a nommy surprise. Restaurant was clean and staff was friendly and quick! Took one star off as the chicken used in mushroom chicken wasn't as fresh tasting. read more

This food is amazing! Noodles and rice are fresh. The orange chicken and honey chicken are crispy, full of flavor and tender inside. Jalapeño chicken was good but not as spicy as I like. I also got potstickers which were deep fried and those were also delicious. Service was fast and they offered samples which was appreciated. read more

Happy Dragon - Chinese Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Everything just seemed mushy. The rice was OK. Not much flavor to anything . The BBQ pork wasn't to bad .. the teriyaki chicken. The teriyaki sauce was really watery. It was more like soy sauce. . Just seemed like everything was a miss read more

I must say the customer service was excellent as the young ladies greeted me with a smile and beautiful attitude. My Dragon box was specifically made for me as I eat no carbohydrates and the chef did not hesitate to do the order! Atmosphere was great as the ladies continually asked if they can help me with anything else. THANK YOU and hope lots of more ppl experience the great service and food that I did!! read more

Happy Dragon - Jalapeño Chicken, Jalapeño Shrimp and steamed veggies! - Chinese Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I went by an hour before their closed, so it makes sense that food options were limited, the service was a bit rushed. I would like to come again to try different options. I will say that their rice is pretty good, better then their noodles :) read more

The food always looks and tastes like it's been sitting there for hours. Not good at all.

Every time I come here I order a Dragon CHEST. CHEST! not box! the employees need to know the menu before they charge customers for crap they're not buying and then not give them the food they order. It happens all the time too, and the cashiers need to learn how to talk louder, no one can hear them whispering behind the counter. read more

We have came 2 times already to buy Thai tea and food and we always end up leaving because they never have any. Last night at 6:00pm they said it was too hot to serve and today they said they ran out at 4:30pm not wasting my time coming back to this place. Customer service is not that great either read more

This is my favorite Chinese food restaurant EVER! My favorite food there is the Butter Shrimp and the Teriyaki Chicken, with white rice. read more

Happy Dragon - Chinese Near Me - Bakersfield, California

I went in with my family for the first time. Walked in felt ignored someone was recording a video I'm guess for their instagram the lady just stood in front of us when we were waiting to order. Then we waited for about 2 minutes before anybody acknowledged we were there then when we went to serve our drinks my daughter slipped and hurt her knee I told them my daughter just slipped the floor is wet and the lady told me ok. Ridiculous. I was upset because the food was good just not a good experience. read more

Great customer service a bit pricey but food was good i will be back for sure new to the area

For the price it ain't that bad. Had chow mein with orange chicken, honey chicken, and butter shrimp. Chow mein tasted bland but the entrees were great! The servers we very polite and friendly, but the same can't be said about the cook. There was 35 minutes to close and they were out of honey chicken but the server said they can make it if I wanted. Told him if it wasn't too much of a hassle then I'm for it. He told the cook but the cook gave both of us a nasty look and pulled the guy into the kitchen and began to tell the server all kinds of things in Spanish. I spoke Spanish and he wasn't really whispering either. After about 5 minutes the server came back and the cook started to make the food. I apologized to the server and he said it wasn't a problem. When it was ready the cook tossed the tray spilling some of the chicken. If it wasn't for the cook I would probably have given this place at least a 4 star read more

This food is overpriced The food is dry, because the heat lamps dry the food has small portions. I will never go back to this place again very disappointed you're better off going to bamboo garden or panda wok for food they give you so much more for your money. read more

I got sick from eating here. It was tasty while I was eating but after I was done, it literally put me into food coma. It literally knocked me out. I had major headache for days after eating this poison. Yes, this chinese food is poison. They literally pour down MSG in their food. Orange chicken was mushy and mostly sauce and breading. Literally tiny bit of chicken was in it. Avoid this restaurant at all cost. Happy dragon will make you unhappy. Stop eating this garbage food. Be aware! Extreme amount of MSG is the food. read more

Walked in first impression place is really nice! Very clean and friendly staff! The owner has worked in the Chinese food industry for 20 years and now has his very own restaurant. Congratulations! read more

Food was good very and comfortable seating 10/10 I highly recommend and it's not to expensive

I had the dragon chest meal which had orange chicken, jalapeno chicken, bbq pork chow, mein and fried rice. The chow main was very delicious and the orange chicken and bbq pork were the best ive had in a very long time. I would definitely recommend. read more

Fried rice was empty. Didn't have what was listed on the menu. The worker looked super confused while I was ordering. We wanted black pepper chicken and was told no, it's only ordered in bigger quantities. The tables were dirty. And the drink section had spilled soda all over. The food is good, just taste a little like it was sitting for a while. read more

I was really excited to try this place since it's down the street from my house. The egg rolls and jalapeño chicken were the only thing good. The fried food needed to be fried more it was too mushy and the rice was dry. As we were finishing eating they cleaned the tables with a cleaning product that was very strong and over powering. read more

Probably some of the best "Fast" Chinese food I've had. So much variety in options. They are generous with their portions and not skimpy at all with the servings. Also the place has been recently remodeled. It has a clean, modern Chinese approach. The soups are also hot and delicious. So glad they are in the area and locally owned. Whoever Daniela is that gave them a one star review is tripping. Her breath probably smelled like mop water. GREAT JOB HAPPY DRAGON! Can't wait to see more! Outstanding service. read more
