I've always past by this restaurant but never actually tried it. From the look outside and avg 3.5 stars.. I wasn't encouraged to try it. But one day after an event nearby, we decided to finally try it. It's actually decent size inside even though from the outside it looks small. Food was great. Wonton soup was pretty good and the fried rice! A bit oily side for the fried rice, but oh well. Service was good. read more

I've been a regular customer at Happy Garden in Fairfield, CA, and I've always had a good experience--so what happened recently was honestly shocking. A few weeks ago, I dined in and apparently the owner claims no tip was left. I don't recall that happening, and I always tip, so if it did happen, it was not intentional. Fast forward to my most recent visit: I came in for dinner with my daughter, and the owner told me he would not serve us because of that one instance. I was caught completely off guard. To make matters worse, he said I could still order food "to go," but refused to let us dine in. That treatment felt extremely unfair and unprofessional, especially as a returning customer. Thankfully, another customer spoke up and said it wasn't right, which I appreciated. I understand tipping is important, but refusing service over a single situation--without even giving the benefit of the doubt or having a respectful conversation--is not how loyal customers should be treated. Really disappointed. read more

The service is excellent. Not too crowded for a Sunday afternoon. The Lettuce Wrap Chicken is the best. read more

Been eating here for 20+ years, food always good. But not anymore! Tonight we ordered t go, Vegetable chow mien and Mongolian beef. Never again! The Mongolian beef was great, no bad thing to say about that but the Vegetable chow mien? Vegetable chow mien was awful. First of all it was udon noodles, so very thick and starchy, and there weren't any vegies, we had 2 pieces of broccoli and 2 pieces of bok choy, oh and a vegetable peel of zucchini. That's it! And no utensils, no cookies, no napkins. I don't know who's running that place now but they need to give it someone else to cook and run. Good bye Happy Garden. read more

Honey walnut prawns, crispy pork chops, Chinese broccoli were all delicious. Our go to place for Chinese food.

Came in around 430pm on Sunday with family. We were quite a large group, table of 13 to be exact and we were seated quick. Not busy yet at 430 but right around 5ish people started to trickle in. Staff was friendly and playful. Everything was quick. They gave us waters, gave us enough time to order, and food came out fast. We were so hungry, I didn't get a chance to take pictures of the food. We order calamari, lemon sliced fish, walnut prawns, string beans with black bean sauce, house chow mein, HK style noodles, pork fried rice, beef with broccoli and steamed rice. Everything was delicious. The fried items came out crispy and not greasy. Everything had great flavor and serving size was good. No complaints here. We're always looking for a good mom & pop Chinese restaurant wherever we go and with good food and fair prices, this is one of them. Will definitely come back to this spot when in the area. read more

This family-owned business offers great service and quality food. The egg foo young is the best -- highly recommend!

Good service. Lunch option includes soup, salad and rice. Decent portions and flavors were all there. I love the decor of the place, from the tables to the jade pieces. Great for small or larger groups. I rarely have chow fun because not many places make it good. But this place is the exception. Their beef chow fun was amazingly good. Definitely will be a returning customer. read more

When my wife first tried this place, it was great and chow mein was on point. But after a while we noticed their service was not professional nor nice at all. They started to slam things on the table as if we offended them in some way? And sometimes it feels like they don't even want to work there. I confronted one of the servers and asked if they had something against us , mind you we are Hispanic people & he said that they work hard to not get any tip from us . Mind you, I'm a guy that tips 15-20% always . I defended myself but he did not believe me. I wonder if his other co-worker was pocketing the tips? maybe he was confused with other people? But he clearly did not like my presence and suggested we do take out next time . Even takeout was a drag for them so we just completely stopped going overall . Food was good but their service made it taste TERRIBLE. Owner should retrain them or replace entirely if they want to grow as a company. read more

Excellent food and service. We appreciate being able to come in and relax and enjoy a good meal.

We had our granddaughter's lunchtime Red Egg and Ginger Party at Happy Garden. It was very easy working with the restaurant. Fred was very accommodating in meeting our needs and allowing our "extra" decorations. We picked out eight dishes to serve ranging from a traditional roast duck to steamed fish to vegetarian. Everything was delicious. Service was outstanding. The party was a success and we couldn't be happier. Happy Garden has become our go to Chinese Restaurant in Fairfield. Highly recommended. read more

Easy to find location Plenty of parking Friendly staff We had a group of 35 for which we made reservations and discussed menu. We ordered fried rice, chow mein, garlic eggplant, string beans, General Tsoa's chicken, beef with snow peas and egg flower soup. Everyone was happy with the food and service. The food was delicious! We had a few minor glitches which were remedied quickly. Other than that, we are extremely happy with our experience. read more

Stopped in for a late dinner on Friday night, about 45 minutes before they closed. All the food was delicious and fresh tasting and came out fairly quickly. We did not feel rushed at all since they were close to closing. One of us did the personal dinner with sweet and sour pork with chowmein. 2 of us did the family dinner which included cashew chicken, sweet and sour pork, soup, rice, egg rolls, and crispy wontons. I enjoyed all of it as it was not too salty or tasted as if was reheated. Veggie to protein portions were very good and the sauces were delicious. If you're in the area stop in or maybe take out, that may be good too. They seem to take care in their food prep and cleanliness of the restaurant. read more

Food is always consistent. And it's close!!! read more

I have been to this restaurant twice for lunch. It looks like a very popular spot for lunch since the was very busy on both of my visits.

I always pass this restaurant everytime I go to either costco or safeway.. For several years I just simply missed this... One day, I thoughtof trying their food for a change... Ordered Bbq spareribs and orange chicken and sweet and sour... 1. Total disappointment about quantity and packaging 2 Spareribs look like duck and so overly food colored, spare ribs look like bloody meat 3. Sweet and sour has more small veggies not sure what those were and less meat 4. Taste of all 3 dishes - bland and boring, no kick in it 5. Spareribs are not even tender we ended up tossing them Finale : We did not enjoy the food, no wonder I missed this place many times .. this isnt even worth $10 if I can be honest...I mean I love chinese food but this? This will be our last time we are gonna order from this restaurant... Totally disappointed. read more

This is the best Chinese food in Solano County hands down! My husband and I have gone to so many Chinese restaurants in Solano County and none of them compare to this place! Highly recommended!!! read more

I came here out of convenience so definitely not my first choice for Chinese food. My overall experience left much to be desired. Food is okay, nothing over the top. We ordered honey walnut prawns, mushu pork, and won ton soup. Portion size seemed small - not generous at all. I feel they use smaller to-go containers in order to control portions. Won ton soup was a little bland. Again, I only came here out of convenience. Food is not bad, but definitely not my first choice restaurant. read more

Lunch specials are the reason my mom comes here. It is perfect for lunch. The specials come with a cup of soup to start and the plate specials come with your choice of steamed rice or fried rice and a slice of orange. They have a huge list to choose from for they lunch specials. Most places only have a handful which is limiting. At Happy Garden they have a lot to choose from. Even I had a hard time deciding. My moms go to is the walnut shrimp lunch special. She always requests the sauce on the side rather than mixed already. Today I had chicken with string beans. On the menu it's pork and string beans but I wanted chicken. It was nice they asked if I wanted the veggies steamed or fried. I never thought about it before but I liked that they asked. read more

This is our go to Chinese restaurant in Fairfield. Their steamed flounder is steamed with ginger, green onions, cilantro, and soy sauce, very traditional and tasty. They offer it in fillets or whole which makes it great for special occasion or just a week night dinner. We enjoy their Mu Shu it is packed with veggies and always a winner in our house. My daughter absolutely loves their Wor Wonton Soup. They offer traditional dishes that you won't find anywhere else in Fairfield like their Preserved Egg with Mustard Green Soup, Seaweed Tofu Soup, Seafood Tofu Clay Pot, etc etc. Solano doesn't have much to offer for Chinese food, but in my humble opinion Happy Garden really stand out from all the American Chinese Restaurants that are so prevalent here. read more
