Doesn't seem like the best place when you see the outside, but the elder up inside and their outdoor dining is very well made and nicely looking. Everyone was super friendly and helpful from beginning to end. Service made the visit very pleasant. The music was good and not too loud so able to have good conversations. The food was tasty with great presentation. read more

My friend and I ordered the same things we ordered last time we ate here: beef shish kebabs and oven roasted chicken. We shared and both items were so good!! The beef was exactly as ordered (medium) and the chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy. The patio is a great place to eat and they have heat lamps for cold nights. Love this place! read more

The lentil soup was boiling hot and so flavorful. Absolutely delicious! I tried two different smoothies and they were both excellent. I love that the menu is not only vegetarian/vegan, but also yummy! read more

I could not stop making yummy noises. The oven roasted lamb on linguine. Oh my goodness. If I lived closer, I would eat here again and again. read more

I am a big fan of Hapy Bistro. It has always been good. But today I went for lunch and got a grilled lamb sandwich. It was good for the most part, maybe a little heavy on the goat cheese and the bread was a bit thick but not bad. Unfortunately, like at Jack in the box, my tomato slices were BS. They leave the nasty, hard, fibrous part on and it seems like they exclusively use these slices on my sandwich. I get that Jack in the box is cheap fast food but Hapy Bistro is not, so why do they put that inedible part of the tomato in the sandwich? Do better. I will give them one more chance but if this happens again, another good restaurant has fallen. read more

Hapy Bistro - Inedible parts of the tomato in my lamb sandwich. - Mediterranean Near Me - Pismo Beach, California

Our local friend took us to dinner here and it was quite a surprise. It looks like a wine shop inside, and they do have amazing wines from all over the area. But they also have incredible mediterranean food, with a lot of unique dishes. I had the gyro salad, and the gyro meat was some of the best I have ever had. I ate every bit of the salad, which is pretty unusual. My husband had the lamb kabob and he really enjoyed the lamb and rice. For dessert we had their bread pudding, topped with ice cream, super delicious, even for me who doesn't really like bread pudding. The service was super friendly and we love how they sell premium wines at reasonable prices. Would be a great place to come and try lots of different local bottles. read more

Stopped by for dinner with no reservations on a day of a 3 day holiday weekend. No wait! Nice place, atmosphere with a nice wine selection. Ordered the octopus and soup for appetizers and then the $50 pistachio crusted lamb for a main course. Well...they brought out EVERYTHING at the same time. Normally, you get served the appetizers and then when finished, the main course is served. Anyway, after discussion with the manager, we opted to just skip the main course, as the service mess up put a bad taste in our mouths and we lost total interest. We paid our bill and left. I'm sure the lamb would have been good, as the octopus and soup appetizers were very well executed. Hopefully this is a training opportunity for the waiter: when in doubt, ask the customer what they desire. read more

FUXS GIVEN = 4.7 ******************* Food = 5 By far the best Mediterranean food in SLO County. The flavors were deep and complex. Everything was fresh. I wish the chef could share his secrets with other restaurants in the area. Best falafel I've ever had and maybe the best Dolmas as well. The mushroom hummus was perfectly flavored UX = 4 Inside looks like a nice bistro mixed with a liquor store. Honestly, I've driven by a few times and the sign didn't draw me in but I'm very glad we gave it a try. Service = 5 Outstanding service. Couldn't have asked for better. read more

My favorite dish is the lamb pasta. It calls to me. Bread pudding sounds mundane but theirs is incredible. They also have a great selection of wines not only to dine with but bottles to take home read more

OMG my wife and I went to Pismo beach and upon arrival decided to visit this place! And oh boy oh boy!what a surprise this was, nice experience, the ambience, the waitress who's happened to be the manager kind, polite and trustworthy about his recommendations. And last the food I tell you if you go to Pismo Beach you must visit Hapy Mediterranean you can thank me later! read more

Wow!!! I was in town to go to the beach and came across this place. This is a nice restaurant, they have indoor and outdoor seating. We sat inside now the service was slow at first but they made up with such amazing service. To eat I really wanted the seabass but its only sold on weekends. I opted for salmon, shrimp skewer, mashed potatoes, salad and mixed vegetables. To drink I cant remember the name but it was a sweet wine and great as well. For dessert we had the apple dessert it was spongy but it paired so well either the icecream. When I say everything was amazing seasoned so well. The atmosphere is really nice and to top it off the bartender and waitress was really nice and helpful. read more

Super fresh and delicious food. Nice patio. Pleasant staff. Fantastic cocktails. This is a solid restaurant.

This place is a must every time you're in the Pismo Beach area! Some friends of ours stumbled upon it and told us to check it out if we were ever in town, and it did not disappoint. I'm a little ashamed to admit we've been about five times now, but this is the first time I'm writing a review. Still, we make a point of having a meal here every time we're in the area. Everything on the menu is outstanding. You really can't go wrong. Whether you're a vegetarian, a meat lover, or somewhere in between, there's something for everyone. They also have rotating specials, and we haven't come across a single dish we didn't love. Each visit, we try something new, and it's always mouthwateringly delicious. In this photo, I ordered the beef shish kabob, which comes with two filet mignon skewers, grilled cherry tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers, served with hummus and tzatziki sauce. You get to choose two sides with your entrée. The options include rice pilaf, a Greek salad, grilled veggies, or French fries. I went with the salad and rice pilaf. This is one of the dishes we often return to. For me, it's a classic and it never disappoints. Another dish we often get is Kevin's style oven-roasted lamb shoulder. The meat is fall-apart tender and served over mashed potatoes. It also comes with broccoli and fire-roasted bell peppers, all tossed in a house-made tomato sauce and topped with fresh basil and feta cheese. This is one of our absolute favorites. The flavor is always unforgettable and absolutely worth coming back for. The oven-roasted lamb pasta is another go-to. You can choose between linguine or fettuccine noodles. Both are excellent, but this time we decided to go with the linguine noodles. The slow-braised lamb shoulder is melt-in-your-mouth good and served with broccoli and fire-roasted bell peppers, all tossed in their house-made tomato sauce and topped with feta cheese. It comes with a side of bread. The rack of lamb chops is another standout. It includes five lollipop lamb chops that are perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection. This dish also comes with two sides of your choice and a house-made chimichurri sauce that is incredibly fresh and complements the meat perfectly. If you're ever in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. The food is consistently delicious, and the experience is always well worth it. However, there's more... Another cool thing about this place is that it's also a wine bar and specialty shop. I'm not sure what to call it exactly, but they have a massive selection of wines, beers, and premium spirits, including some that are distilled onsite. Lastly, the service has always been great. Everyone is friendly, kind, and attentive. We truly cannot say enough good things about this place. read more

Good food, very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Fantastic salads and vegetables. Great gyros and tzatziki. Large selection of beer on tab and wines. However, many dishes are vastly overpriced, in particular the higher end entrees and appetizers. Ambience is very nice. read more

Excellent food and professional service. Always love this neighborhood gem. We sat outside on the patio for the first time and enjoyed that setting. read more

I've been here a few times with family. Teens and adults have all found something they want on the menu. Being gluten free and vegan, I have questions about the food. Servers have been very helpful finding me something safe to eat. We will be back again. read more

Man this place blew us away! Started with a delicious cocktail- the Hapy Spritz (hubby had the cucumber cocktail, which was also excellent). The. We each LOVED our dishes. Lamb kebabs for me with salad and rice pilaf and the lamb pasta with red sauce for him. We will definitely come back here! read more

DONT EAT HERE OR ORDER FOOD FROM HERE!!!! The owner/manager is a thief. I purchased food to go, when I got home I noticed I didn't get everything in ordered. I thought no big deal and called them to refund the items they didn't give me. I was told they couldn't help me and the manager would contact me the next day. The manager never called so I called again and they told me the same thing. I have gone through this with them 4 times and they still won't refund my money. read more

Amazing food, lovely service! Such a hidden gem and deserves more love. Highly recommend.

The food here is so good! They make really good drinks too. Service was perfect! Would highly recommend read more

Great food, fantastic service. The menu is mostly mediterrean but also offers a good variety of options. Highly recommend!

OMG, what a find! We had done some business in Arroyo Grande and were going to head back to Carpinteria but lunch munchies delayed us. A Yelp search found, of course, many options. So, after a little discussion we agreed on Hapy's and entrusted GPS to get us there. We were a bit apprehensive when we discovered that the restaurant/bar is in a shopping mall but, as we didn't have that much time we agreed to risk it. It was right next to a large garden and outdoor stuff suppliers. Happy locked in distinctive from the outside but we persevered. Upon walking in we were charmed by this wine bar, beer bar, distillery. We were promptly seated in back at some nicely configured tables on their modest but nicely appointed covered outdoor seating. They have heaters for those below 60 degree days but this breezy little spot was very pleasant. Nice tables, tablecloths, and real chairs that don't fold. Alright so far, now to the menu. Again, wow. An interesting and creative menu that orbits in a contemporary Mediterranean vibe. Middle eastern things like hummus and falafel, creative Italian and Greek dishes. OK, but how will it taste? I ordered a falafel burger with fries and my lunch companion ordered crab cakes, fries, and a Greek salad. Well, here's another OMG. These folks really know how to cook these dishes. The burger, which used hummus instead of mayo, revealed a symphony of flavors. Fresh lettuce, purple onions, delightfully fresh tomato and a truly fresh bun caused any gustatory anxiety to melt away. And the fries were air fried. Not greasy. Not burnt, just delicious. I didn't taste the crab cakes but I did sample the salad which was fresh and tasty. After we finished those items we ordered coffee, and I couldn't resist trying their baklava. Now, I grew up in Chicago, so I know how authentic Greek cooking tastes. They nailed it. On top of that, as we were walking out we exchanged thanks and pleasantries to our attentive waiter. He then showed us their small but beautifully designed still where they make vodka and ouzo as well as a few other fine distilled liquors. (their beer and wine selections are also rather large and apparently lovingly chosen). This place fires on all cylinders producing delicious high quality food and drink in a classy setting that makes you forget the "mall vibe". And it is a few easy turns that put us back on the 101 driving with happy tummy's. Now all we need are more excuses to go to Pismo Beach and vicinity. We left Hapy happy and will be back. Thank you! read more

The food and service is excellent here! Just because it's small don't let it fool you. The owner is delightful along with the staff.

Food here was great! Portions are very generous, meats were juicy and delicious, dishes were flavorful, drinks were great. And service was wonderful, that always makes a huge difference. The ambiance was comfortable and super cute, I would recommend to try! read more

Hapy makes you happy!!!! Great little place in Arroyo Grande - a little tucked away in a strip mall, but don't be fooled... the restaurant has an absolutely lovely ambiance, full bar, fantastic service and great menu! For wine and cocktail lovers alike, you'll find something to your taste, the wine selection is enormous (especially for bottles you can browse in the store), featuring many local and international wines. The food is outstanding - made to order and quickly delivered by lovely staff. You have to try it - definitely one of the hidden gems in this area! read more

We were going to go downtown and it was a mess, so glad we ended up going here instead. The food was really good, highly recommend the gyro salad & apple bread pudding. read more

I have been coming to Hapy since they first opened. What I love about this restaurant is they are so consistent. Everything I have ever gotten is delicious! I usually order some of their fresh pita bread with one of the hummus platters or steak and mushroom bites. Their Avgolemono Soup is one of the best soups I have ever had. A couple of my favorites also include the steak and mushroom bites and chicken skewer plates with their rice pilaf and fresh salad. The service is always great. The manager Sam has been a friendly face for years always is making sure our experience is great! If you haven't been here I highly recommend you check them out! read more

This is by far one of the top restaurants in SLO county. The food is incredibly delicious - they truly understand good flavor. Dolmas - Handmade, fresh in house. One of, if not the best I've ever had. Mushroom Hummus - Amazing. Delightful. Brilliant combination. Again, one of the best hummus' I've ever had all over the world, including in the Mediterranean. Falafel - Perfect texture & flavor & expertly cooked. Some were even heart shaped!! I loved them. French fries - yummy! Not your average fry. Very good. The service was super friendly and on top of it. The ambiance is nice, definitely more of an upscale restaurant with a diverse drink menu. Great spot for a date or special occasion. Located in an unassuming shopping center, the overall branding and design could use a little upgrade to match how wonderful the rest of this place is. The inside is nice with a back patio option, but some tweaks to beautify the interior (kinda basic inside) and exterior (the lotus flower logo looks like it could be an Asian restaurant or yoga studio) could go a long way. Overall, I would highly recommend for foodies in the area seeking fantastic flavors and service for lunch or dinner. Perfect spot for vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters to eat food that will leave them feeling happy & satisfied! read more

Always great food and service! Steak bites, mushroom hummus and potato skins are our go to.

Food superb service outstanding we have a great meal and relaxed atmosphere at this friendly restaurant

This place is pretty special. It's rare to find a place you can tell everyone working cares about the service and food quality. We opted for old fashions, bacon-wrapped dates, lamb kabobs, stuffed chicken, and carrot cake. Every dish was delicious, but the stuffed chicken is a new favorite. Although we chose table seating, I couldn't help but admire the "twinkling stars" installation above the bar, which added a magical touch to the restaurant's overall atmosphere. Looking forward to dinner here again soon. read more

Food is always on point. Rib Eye with the chimichurri is my go to. Rack of lamb, lamb kabobs, salmon, the calamari apps...the list goes on. I always go for something different and every dish is delicious. The service is outstanding and so is the beer and wine selection. Casual yet classy environment and the outside seating area is nice and cozy during the winter months, beautiful and refreshing the rest of the time . read more

Imagine the best falafel you ever had...then go to Hapy and get one just as good, if not better!!! We had eaten there a couple of years ago, and my husband and I wanted to try it again, as I was on the lookout for restaurants that are continuously open from lunch through dinner. I remembered a delicious meal with a Mediterranean vibe and wanted to explore the menu again. We arrived early for lunch, around 1130 am, which turned out to be a wise move. We chose from the well rounded wine list, then examined the menu as the patio filled up with lunch time customers, many of whom seemed to be regulars. There were co-worker groups, families and couples soon filling the pleasant outdoor patio. It was fresh and breezy and on a less sunny day, there is probably a view. The waiter soon brought out the glass of Timbre Sauvignon Blanc that I had ordered because I was curious about it being "On Tap". He kindly explained that they buy it in big 5 gallon jugs and pump it out. It was light and refreshing, and a bit more economical than the New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. I decided to try the hummus platter appetizer, and my husband ordered the chicken shawarma sandwich, which the attentive waiter recommended. I thought that the prices were slightly high for our area, until I saw the size of my appetizer! It could easily have served four people! My husband had enough shawarma that I could sample the chicken which was tasty and well spiced read more

Visiting from out of town. The food was so good we went here two nights in a row! The rack of lamb was outstanding.
