Do yourself a favor and skip the pad Thai. Doesn't resemble any that I have had and I've eaten it in many restaurants as it's one of my favorite dishes. This looks like noodles and ketchup. I did give them two stars for their version of the poo poo platter. Spring rolls, wontons and crab Rangoon were all good. The chicken skewers were delicious! The lo mein noodles were cooked well but the beef was rubbery and questionable. read more

This is a no frills Chinese and Thai takeout restaurant much like hundreds of similar places across America. They are tucked into a small space between Salty Dawg and Tour of Italy. The food is inexpensive and they will give you plenty to eat. It's filling comfort food when you are hungry. Order at the counter, pay and in a few minutes your food will be ready to go. There is no decor unless the picture menu on the wall counts. If you want ambiance, your home or a nearby park will have to suffice. There is currently one table inside if you wanted to eat your food right away. There is no outdoor seating for this restaurant and I doubt Salty Dawg would be happy if you tried to use their outside tables. I recently got the Mongolian Beef lunch special it was tasty enough with plenty of rice to fill you up. The egg roll that came with was cooked perfectly if a little bland. For $6.99, I had a filling meal that I would get again. There are 29 lunch specials on the menu for $6.50 + tax and I imagine they all are satisfying. read more

I see these reviews about once a week, because we go here about once a week. This is consistently better and fresher than any Chinese food I've ever had. It's fast, delicious, decent portions, and they're nice. I will never understand the negative reviews, unless it's just some of the rude people I often see who are constantly trying to find ways to complain and get free food. read more

The people are SO friendly and the food is great! They went to Fresh 4 Less in the same strip mall to get the ginger that I requested in my lo Mein and mixed it in just right so the flavor was definitely there, but not overwhelmingly so. The employees were so friendly and the portions are generous. What a great find! read more

I have only been a few times, but each time was very good. I love the shrimp rolls. I also love a good shrimp chow mein with lots of bean sprouts. I have scarcely been able to find it made that way since I have been in Florida (20 years). Happy Wok does a wonderful job with this dish. Other things I have tried were the meat wontons, cheese wontons and wonton soup with pork. All very good. Next, I may try a Thai dish or the lo mein. The prices are reasonable and they give huge portions. The family that runs it is nice. Actually I think their young Daughter is the one that really runs the place! I think she might be about eight or nine as of this writing. I am just so happy to find a killer good shrimp chow mein once again. read more

They have children working the counter and taking orders. One is approximately 6 and the other around 3. The little one was on the counter and almost fell off as he was holding pens with snot dripping out of his nose (he was sick and handling food). The older daughter is trying her best to pick up the slack of the business but is far too young to be running the register, handling credit cards and answering phones. Child Labor Laws are in existence for a reason. If you believe in them, don't go here and spend money at a legitimate business. Also, they unapologetically argued with me about getting the order wrong in front off the kid and she got involved. Very awkward! read more

This was the worst food I have ever had. I mean Chinese food is Chinese food but how do they mess up chicken fried rice and egg drop soup the soup was so congelled there was no way to call it soup everything tasted smokey was probably all left from yesterday since we ordered at lunch time on Saturday will not be going back read more

Worst experience I have ever had with employees and food that was re-cooked. I was told to bring it back in which led to an argument on why a piece was missing??? how would I have known your food was rotten if I didn't take a bite? I was then cussed out and robbed for $34.00. What a waste of time. Shrimp smelled spoiled. The whole establishment is disgusting. Mold on the ceilings. There's better Chinese food in the area save your money and stomach If I could give this place a negative, I would! read more

This "Hole in the Wall" takeout Chinese food place is better than average in this area. They got our order right and it was ready for pickup on time and piping hot. Ambiance is n/a since it is takeout. Food is plentiful and very tasty. Give it a try. read more

What a bummer... I really liked this place and it was so convenient! I ordered takeout on Sunday - just for myself. Just a lunch combo of sesame chicken, fried rice and an egg roll. First, he wouldn't give me any sweet and sour sauce! I get it, it's sesame chicken.... but egg rolls are delicious with sauce! So I brushed that off... went home and enjoyed my chicken (the rice wasn't great). The meal was $8.55, so I wasn't expecting gourmet and I was in and out in (literally) less than 2 minutes. I didn't tip... and honestly I could be totally wrong with that etiquette. I mean, there wasn't exactly a "service" to tip on... I ordered my food online and picked it up myself. He handed my food to me over the counter (and wouldn't even give me sauce!!). So, I feel like I was paying the right amount for what I ordered and received. Today, as I reconcile my bank account (yes.... I may be the only person under 40 that still does that), I see that I was charged $10.55!! He added a $2.00 tip for himself!!! What in the hell?????? That is NOT OKAY!!!! I mean, it's only $2... but the principal of the thing really irritating me!! I even wrote "$8.55" in the total line!! Ugh. So here's your updated one-star review, take that Sad Wok. read more

Fast service and really good food. I get their takeout about 2-3 times a month. Lunch special is $8. It checks off all the boxes for me when looking for lunch. read more

A huge menu! But, this place is quite a drive. When entering the establishment, the place looks kind of shady, but there is a lot to choose from. They even have Agedashi tofu, which most Japanese restaurants do not even have. However, when having so many items the quality starts to suffer. I have ordered their sushi before and was not able to eat it, because it just tasted like it had expired. They were the only place that had Vietnamese for a while, so I went there for their rice paper rolls. I had some bad experiences here and some okay ones. Nothing was ever phenomenal. It might be better if they just specialized in one type of cuisine. After Far East on Thomasville opened, we went there instead and were never heard from at Rice Bowl again. read more

The Thai selections are very good, especially the red curry. Just enough kick for me. I find the portions are incredibly generous and I have always had excellent service. read more

This place is pretty decent. It's not excellent, but it's good and cheap so totally worth it if your wanting a quick bite. read more

Happy Wok - Wonton soup - Chinese Near Me - Tallahassee, Florida

See all

There is nothing "happy" about this place. Foods was horrible, service is even worst. I ordered pho, Vietnamese beef soup. They not only gave me chicken broth, it doesnt even smell like pho. The girl at you the counter was so rude. Instead of offering me another meal, replace the nasty pho they have serve me. She argued with me. You're Korean and you're trying to argue with a Vietnamese person about Pho? My friend order pad Thai, it has no favor. How this place is still in business is beyond me. What a nightmare!! Think twice before eating here!! FYI they charge an arm and a leg for their disgusting foods read more

Their menu has a good variety. Includes Vietnamese, Chinese and Japanese food. I tried some Vietnamese food and it was very tasty. A nice big serving. If you order more than $9 you can also go to the soup/salad buffet for free. It has a bowl of simple salad and several kinds of dressing. And there were three types of soup including miso and a hot and sour soup which were also very good. Service was quick and friendly. The decor and atmosphere is casual and nice. It's located in a shopping strip called Lake Jackson and so parking is convenient. Their website includes photos of the restaurant and their menu with prices. I recommend this place for a good serving of Asian food. Edit: Since writing this ownership has changed. Menu has changed slightly. read more

This is my new Chinese restaurant. They even do a shrimp pad Thai! Wonton soup and Krab Rangoon are my wife's favorites! Clean restaurant! Fun small neighborhood atmosphere. read more

I thought I'd give this place another try since it's close to my job. I'm currently eating $10 tofu pad Thai without a vegetable in sight. Literally just fried tofu and noodles. (To be fair, there are peanut crumbs and a bit of scallion here and there). I appreciate the lime wedges but it's not enough to bring me back here. read more

I am new to Tallahassee and I've been looking for a good Chinese takeout since I moved here. Happy wok is excellent! Great price for the food. I've ordered here several times and it's been consistently good. The food is hot and fresh every time. Can't wait to eat here again! read more

In the search for good Chinese, I happily stumbled upon this great place. Awesome that they have Thai as well. The pad Thai was yummy and just as hot as requested. If you're in the mood for Chinese, check this place out. read more

The food was quick and delicious! The prices are reasonable too! Didn't have to break the bank for a little delivery meal. Their website was also very easy to navigate! I will definitely be ordering from here more often. read more

I used to love this place. My favorite tofu ever. But over and over they just keep messing up orders. Today I ordered a meal and it came as a soup? Wtf? DONE read more

The new management is a lot friendlier and the place looks a lot cleaner then it used to. It's now called "Happy Wok". I had Chinese from here (they have Vietnamese and Japanese as well). The food was great and it' is very affordable. read more

Pleasant surprise for what we have found in this area. We had great dinners. We will return for takeout

I personally love this place!! They deliver and are super quick!! Very good portion and let me customize my order!!!

Outstanding food at a fantastic price. Friendly staff and food is ready for takeout in mere minutes from the time you call.

My husband and I always choose Happy Wok when we want Asian take-out. Our favorites are the sesame chicken and Thai red curry (go medium- the hot is overwhelming!). They used to have a sit-down restaurant, but have since changed to mostly take-out. I don't think they had a lot of sit-in guests. The food is consistent, good, and pretty cheap. read more

I ordered pick up from Happy Wok, and was told that it would take 20 minutes. I ran a couple of small errands, and arrived about 25 minutes after the order was placed. The young lady told me it was a couple more minutes, collected my money, and then I waited ANOTHER 25 minutes for my order to be completed. The House Lo mein was below average and the moo shu pork was disappointing. I will not be giving them another try, as this seemed to be normal operating proceedure for them according to the other patrons waiting for their food.. read more

There are better Chinese restaurants in town, but this is the best one that we know of that delivers. We have stuck mostly to the Chinese dishes and found them to be fresh and flavorful, and very generous portions. read more

Don't know which was worse, shrimp that tasted as if had been cooked on the floor, or service that was so rude and unpleasant that I must have interrupted their important lives. Never, never again. read more

Menu contains Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Thai selections. We had one Vietnamese and one Thai; both were excellent. Tasteful decor, friendly and efficient service, calm & peaceful atmosphere. Entrees range from $9 to $11. An overall fine experience. read more

Great, delicious food! I've tried almost everything on the menu. My favourite food choices, hands down, is the pu pu platter which is a bit of everything and I'll usually get their egg drop soup along with the steamed dumplings. The staff are nice and friendly every time I go to pick up and when I get delivery, it usually only takes15-20 minutes to arrive! read more
