Been going to this place for years now. Great chinese food, made super fast, and never had a mistake made on any order. The food is not expensive and you get a large amount. read more

Food is always fresh and delicious!! I've tried most of the menu but the Singapore noodles are a fav!

Awesome food! So glad I found this place. The place needs a through cleaning and coat of paint on everything!

Quite possibly the worst tasting Chinese food I've ever had. Unpalatable and inedible, a complete waste of $50.

This is a grab and go place for sure. It was too hot to sit at the restaurant and eat the food there but . . . The food was great. Orange chicken was my favorite thing. My daughter got the lo mein noodles and she loved them. The dumplings were great also. Service was fast and food was fresh and hot. read more

disgusting waste of 40.00. the meats are like shoe leather and the noodles taste like ramen "cup of soup"

One of my favorite buffets on the Southside. Mongolian grill, Sushi bat with Japanese-style fried and grilled fish sides. 4 ten foot tables full of food they keep filled. Will get photos next time around. read more

Delicious pea pods, broccoli, shoots, carrots & celery. Pork fried rice. All extremely fresh and well made. read more

Happy Garden - Chicken w Chinese vegetables, a egg roll and egg drop soup! . - Chinese Near Me - Norman, Oklahoma

Ordered take-out last night and picked it up about 8:30pm. The employee was very rude and practically shoved the bag of food at us. We ordered the dinner for two and specified sesame chicken and pork ribs. It came with soup (we ordered egg drop) and two egg rolls and two sides of vegetable rice. The chicken and ribs were so tough and hard that we could not eat them. The egg rolls were the same - so hard and crusty! The peas in the rice were tough and chewy - they had to be old. This was a terrible experience and although we have gone here for years, sadly we will not be going back. I wish I could give a "0" star rating because this was beyond unacceptable. read more

If I could give maybe even 1/2 of a star I still don't think It would be a satisfaction . The Lo mein was completely cold and literally took the shape of the container it came in . I go in for a fork full of noodle , and the whole container of noodles came out of the bowl . In addition to the fact that it was really cold . As shown below , the Mongolian beef was not far from disgusting, extra chewy and had a Grey color. Sliding away from the fact that it was served .on top of the glorious Onion Moutain read more

Happy Garden - Onions ...onions..and more Onions !!! - Chinese Near Me - Norman, Oklahoma

We have been getting food from this restaurant for more than 20 years. The food is always clean, fresh, and tasty! It isn't gourmet but it isn't supposed to be. It IS excellent Chinese takeout for a good price. We recommend it highly. read more

Tasty, in the American Chinese food kind of way, and inexpensive. Plus, they give you a lot for the price.

They have late hours, good food and polite staff. Anytime I call in my order it is ready when I arrive at the time that they say.

The food is always prepared quickly and the staff at Happy Garden are very friendly. This is tasty Chinese fast-food.

I was not impressed. General Tso's chicken had too much breading, and it was not soft, but rather hard and took a lot of chewing. Flavorwise it was nothing special, lacked spiciness. Hot & Sour soup was average as well. Dining room is a downer, except the locals know that already and only order takeout or delivery here. Service was friendly and fast..prices were decent. But if they can't get simple breaded chicken right, I wonder if anything else here is worth trying. read more

Egg drop soup was had a green tint. It was also very thick. My son called it Jello Soup. Manager was not helpful when I called to inform him. *edit - my son really wanted egg drop soup, so I drove to another restaurant. I have included the comparison. read more

Food is pretty good but not great. The boy working the cash register was very rude. no customer service. He acted like he was pissed to be there. I will look around for take out place close by that wants my business. Oh, they also charge a "convenience fee" of $1.50 for ordering online! That is definitely irritating. read more

I love this place. They always give a ton of food, have good service, tasty, and very consistent. For the prices, I would say it's totally worth it. Have always gone and will continue to! read more

Fast service and happy people. Definitely recommend this restaurant. Food was hot and tasty

Worst customer service ever! Went in on Sunday,noon and the guy who took my order was annoyed and seemed angry to bring there. Food tasted gross like if-the oil had not been changed in a minute. Sadly will not be returning. read more

This is, honestly, the best Chinese food in Norman! My family and I have been ordering from Happy Garden for 3 years now. There has never been any problems or mistakes. The food is always piping hot and packaged carefully. Everything tastes great and the portions...wow!! You cannot go wrong ordering from Happy Garden. read more

I ordered their Sweet and Sour Chicken to pick up. Got home and the breading and chicken was hard as a rock. Gave 2 stars for the rice. Will not being going back. read more

Happy Garden is my go to for Chinese delivery! They are always super quick, the food is hot and fresh, and the online ordering is so simple. Their hot and sour soup is my FAVORITE; I've never been a big fan of tofu but the small slices in the soup are amazing and soak up the tasty broth. The steamed dumplings are fantastic as well, and my fiancé loves the General Tso's chicken. We've never had anything we didn't like, and our order has NEVER been delivered incorrectly or missing anything. The delivery drivers are always so friendly, honestly I love everything about this place! read more

Happy Garden - Steamed dumplings! So good! - Chinese Near Me - Norman, Oklahoma

I'm not sure why there are negative comments. I had the Kung Po chicken, my wife had the sesame chicken. We also had egg drop soup, chicken sticks and egg rolls. The food was fine, egg drop soup was great, egg rolls were okay as well as the chicken sticks. My mother in law loved the hot and sour soup as well as the general's chicken. All in all it was fine, nothing negative. read more

So much food! We often get one of the family dinners, and usually, the family dinner for two is enough to feed our family of two adults and three kids. It is traditional Chinese takeout and every bit as delicious as you would expect. Not the spiciest, but tasty. You can always trade the pork fried rice for chicken fried rice at no extra charge. read more

Food was very good and delivery time was very reasonable. I've never been disappointed by Happy Garden!

It was awful. I have read all the reviews about how great the food is, I found ut to be slimy and tasteless. And the person at the counter was rude. read more

Food was barely edible, we ordered 3 different meals and we weren't able to eat more then 1-2 bites out of each meal. The egg drop soup was the best(still not good) I definitely wouldn't order any of it again. read more

The WORST HOT & SOUR SOUP I've ever had the MISfortune of coming across:/ it was as thick as JELLY :P supposed to be a thin SOUP. Spicy it was not. Sour it was not. Just a warm jelly. Yuck. read more

I landed a new job in the Norman area and immediately had a craving for Chinese food. I tried several restaurants and all were bad -- it took me 6 weeks to find this place! Inexpensive and tastes great. The egg roll was fantastic (though I do not believe it had any meat in it). The shrimp lo mein was perfect. The fried rice was not so great, but just "okay"... I ordered a water and never received it. Weird, but not worth losing a star... read more

Wow! If you're looking for Chinese food today on Christmas Day , happy garden is the place. Not only were they courteous and fast but for American Chinese the food was delicious. A great place for takeout. Rather small dining room, but it was clean and the food was fresh and delicious. This might be weird Leonard get Sheldons food. read more

Happy Garden - Busy on Christmas Day. - Chinese Near Me - Norman, Oklahoma

Happy Garden slaps hard. There is no place in Norman that offers more food for a better price.

We order delivery. We order in. The food is consistently excellent. The restaurant is clean. It is a locally-owned, family business that works hard to produce a high quality product. That matters to us. Really sad to read the newer bad reviews. We are ordering tonight to see if we have a different experience. Maybe something changed? I will say that phone orders are difficult and always have been but I thought it was due to overwork or something. The lady with the 2 kids who is a manager or owner is just mean -- every time. I try not to deal with her ever. read more

Hole-in-the-wall takee-outee. Mediocre chicken lo mein. Muddled flavors did not deliver well to my palate.

The girl I spoke to on the phone was incredibly rude! Literally told me "I don't care" about my dietary restrictions. Not how you run a business. read more

The husband and I were hungry late he other night and looked up places that delivered and Happy Garden was one. So we decided to chow down on Chinese food! We order some egg drop soup, sesame chicken, and vegetable fried rice. It was all very yummy. I really enjoyed the sesame chicken, it was perfect. the egg drop soup was pretty good too. The vegetable fried rice as mediocre, nothing special. But everything else was great. We made the mistake of ordering on a game night, so the delivery time was over an hour. Hopefully next time it will be a little speedier. We definitely plan on god in a eating at the restaurant at some point. But for delivery it was pretty good and we were both satisfied! read more

Had Happy Garden take out on Christmas day for lunch. I didn't go pick it up, but the family member that did said they were doing a booming business. I will say this is not strictly authentic Chinese food, so I am reviewing on an "American" Chinese food scale. As far as the typical American-style Chinese takeout joints, this is definitely above average. We went with several lunch deals, and let me tell you, they really are deals. Lunch specials are available 11-3, there are 34 of them, and they are all $4.95. They come with pork fried rice, plus your choice of soup, egg roll, or crispy noodle. I went with the General Tso's chicken. This is your typical version of this dish. I've had spicier, but it had some decent heat to it. It's a substantial portion, I only finished about half. So, for $5 I had a lunch and then leftover lunch the next day. Hard to beat that. We also split some Crab Rangoon, which comes 8 to an order for $3.60. Good version of this dish, it's fried well, so it's crispy but not greasy. Again, it's a substantial order for the price. We also tried the chicken on a stick, which is 5 large skewers of grilled chicken for $4.15. I loved this dish, it was very crispy but the chicken retained juiciness. My son (4 years old) liked it too. Absolute repeat. The miss for me was the egg roll. It was greasy and the paper was too thick. I am not a huge egg roll fan anyway, but I really disliked this one. Everything was extremely hot and fresh. I don't know if the quality suffers when using delivery as we carried out. I'll absolutely order Happy Garden again, above average tasty American-style Chinese food. read more
