    Side of veggies
    Erica R.

    Even though my fiancé and I showed up about an hour before closing, we were met with a welcoming staff at Hapy Bistro. The staff even gave us preference on which kind of table to sit at. The low table area was already pretty full so we opted for high bar table. The servers were super nice and friendly. One of our servers even felt bad to tell us that they were out of the fish for fish n chips. This is a wine bar so they didn't have too many NA drinks on the menu. The quality of the food was really good and we even had a bunch left over that was boxed up. We throughly enjoyed our visit and will recommend to friends and family.

    Grilled Asparagus
    Bella S.

    A pretty decent restaurant in the Pismo beach area if you are looking for a chill, slow-paced, well-decorated place to eat at. As soon as I walked in, I was mesmerized by the refrigerator row of wine/champaign bottles. The bar area is well decorated with a dark background and small lights to emulate a dark starry night. Their service was not good in our L.A.-opinionated minds. Yes, we were greeted and seated immediately upon arrival. We waited maybe 20 minutes before someone eventually came to take our order. Mind you, the whole time we were ready to order, the waitress who seated us was walking back and forth, setting up tables around us. She clearly saw that we were ready to order but didn't even offer to take our orders or get another staff who could. This is a place to come to if you are NOT in a hurry and are here to simply chill and take life SLOCAL style. The food here seems like a fusion between American and Mediterranean style. 1. Octopus Appetizer (4.5/5) Large octopus tentacles served with a combination of vegetables (broccoli, cauliflower, roasted peppers) toasted with garlic and olive oil. The vegetables and octopus were all cooked very well. The octopus was fresh and melts in your mouth. 2. Grilled Asparagus (2.5/5) Large asparagus that's seasoned lightly, but it was not cooked correctly. It had a very stringy-fibery texture. 3. Philly cheesesteak (2/5) The hoagie bread was grocery store quality at best. We were sad that it wasn't even toasted or warmed up, so ended up ditching the bread/bun and just ate the inside. The cheese was at least nicely melted. The onion and bell peppers were fresh, but the steak was "meh." Definitely not quality beef. The beef itself was also not seasoned enough, so was bland and dry. 4. Onion rings (5/5) Fried to perfection. Loved that the onions were fresh and it was easy to pull apart with each bite. The aioli sauce that its served with is plain and bland though. 5. Crab cake (4/5): Crabby patty anyone? All I tasted was fried Panko batter. Wish the patty itself had more flavor and spice. The garlic aioli sauce that came with it though was good. 6. Dr. Marquis Salad (4/5): Fresh spring mix lettuce topped with ground beef and crispy bacon, tomato, sliced avocado and tossed with their house-made olive oil, salt and pepper dressing. Overall, it was a hearty salad with plentiful flavor. It was just a bit weird to have ground beef in salad, but I guess that's what makes this salad dish unique

    Lamb sandwich - delicious but difficult to without making a big mess.
    Nancy S.

    Excellent restaurant and we enjoyed it a lot. The service is noticeably attentive and friendly. The waiter couldn't have been nicer. The ambiance is great - cool and calm. The food was excellent..I loved the lamb sandwich but I probably wouldn't order it again. Why? It was super messy to eat. The sandwich consists of a tender piece of lamb, lettuce and feta cheese on olive bread. The bread is substantial and large, so one has to bite down hard which causes the feta cheese to slide out and the lettuce to move. The sandwich contents do not stay together in the bread. When I finished just half of this sandwich, there was feta cheese everywhere, including the plate, the table, the napkin and my blouse. It was frustrating and maybe there is some other way to put the flavors together without a mess. I would go to this restaurant again but I would avoid the lamb sandwich.

    Hummus and Pita
    Denae G.

    This is one of my go to spots when craving Mediterranean I always choose to sit outside (less noisy/busy and always perfectly heated) We got two appetizers - Hummus that comes with fluffy pita topped with olive oil and whole garbanzo beans (my go to appetizer) We also got the Potato skins - these were loaded with bacon and cheese. These exceeded my expectations! (First time ordering these) I got the beef kabob (filet Mignon cooked tenderly medium rare) with rice pilaf and grilled veggies - it even came with more hummus and tzatziki sauce - everything was SO flavorful - highly recommended My partner got the lamb sandwich - this thing was loaded with goat cheese and lamb! It also came with a side of lentil soup. Yum! Can't forget the Baklava for dessert Overall, Hapy is one of my local favorite spots for date night. If you're looking for flavor and want something a little more upscale.. Hapy is your place

    Chicken Kabob
    Chipper C.

    Was in Pismo Beach for a medical appointment and was a bit early so I drove around the office and discovered this yummy restaurant. They had JUST opened for the day but were very happy to seat me. I ordered the Chicken Kabob and it was fantastic!! I will definitely return here the next time I am in the area!!

    I had the seafood shiskkabob. Yum yum.

    Well I hadn't been to Hapy in 1-2 years. Probably just 2 reasons. Back then I thought the food portions were too small and their are many other options in the area. So we did go last night celebrating 2 birthdays. I'll have to say it was a great experience. While not cheap it was worth the cost. Great food and portions, service, ambiance, menu choices. So we'll now be back soon.

    Hapy, located in Arroyo Grande, and has a wonderful indoor and outdoor patio and is an awesome spot to grab dinner with friends and family. Their outdoor patio has lots of seating, heaters, and they are dog friendly (yay)! Their indoor seating area has a massive wine selection, TVs and a good amount of space! We had been here a few times and have ordered the burger, the kabobs, the euro, and baklava. They just have really, really good Mediterranean food! Service is always great too which is nice and it's never insanely busy! If you are looking for really good Mediterranean food with a relaxed, inviting atmosphere this is the place to go! Highly recommend Hapy!

    Kefta Kabob
    Michele T.

    Hapy kept popping up when we were searching for somewhere to eat that we figured we had to give them a try. We arrived at around 7pm on Sunday and were seated quickly. Our waiter was friendly and provided recommendations. I wasn't super hungry, so I ordered the Octopus. So glad I did as it was full of flavor, and the veggies were grilled perfectly and so good too. Hubs ordered the Kefta Kabobs and he was very happy with that dish as well. Hubs couldn't pass up the chocolate bread pudding for dessert. Served warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream - presented beautifully and not too sweet. He really enjoyed it. Only thing is this dessert was $20 - maybe a bit on the high end which was our only complaint.

He was both friendly and attentive even though the restaurant was busy! He had a warm welcoming smile, and didn't rush us ordering.

    Dinner with my wife celebrating our wedding anniversary…read more I wanted to enjoy my experience here given the beautiful beachfront views, but the execution fell short for an upscale spot. To start, we arrived early for our reservation. I had made a note requesting an outdoor table, and the hostess attempted to seat us inside. I politely asked for an outside table again, and she said we would have to wait 10 minutes, which was fine. We moved to the bar, ordered two glasses of wine, and before they even finished pouring our water, the table was "ready". The biggest disappointment was the limited menu availability. Four out of ten of the entrees were completely unavailable when we ordered, which severely restricted our options. Additionally, my wine bottle was served and was never chilled or offered a wine bucket, which is a miss for a premium seafood restaurant. On the positive side, the food they DID have available and we could order was all tasty and fresh. The service was okay, polite, but not particularly attentive or proactive given the pricing. Overall, you're paying for the stunning location, but the food logistics and service definitely need improvement. We still had a great time!
