    Beef panang. The best! 10/10
    Nina T.

    I don't usually expect much from places that combine Thai, ChineseC and Vietnamese dishes, but this place surprised me! Their beef Panang curry here is the best I've tasted in a while. The curry is flavorful and bold, their beef was tender, and the veggies were soft but still had a nice crunch to it. We also ordered the walnut shrimp, which was always been my favorite and they did an amazing job here with it. The outer layer was crispy, the prawns were huge, and the mayonnaise sauce was creamy and flavorful. I wanted soup and ordered their wonton noodle soup. It wasn't as bold as the other two dishes but the light broth was just what I wanted. Service was great! Our server/cashier/food runner was friendly and helpful. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to try a plethora of Asian dishes.

    Pu Pu Platter for 2

    We were visiting family in Colorado and had dinner with family and friends before heading to the airport. We were a party of 9 and had a reservation. It was a wonderful dinner and our waitress was fantastic! Our grandchildren had never had a Pu Pu Platter before. Our 13 year ild grandson even commented when leaving that we had the best waitress!

    Solid Chinese fair. Came here because my usual place was closed and it's a small place in the Micro center parking lot. We came around 3pm and it was pretty empty except a few to go order pick up. We got the sesame chicken- the chicken was tender, the sauce a little too sweet for my taste. I wish it came with Vegis and forgot to ask usually a nice steamed carrot or broccoli accompanies the dish which I like. I got the plain fried rice which was soft and tasty. To start we got the crab wontons which were good. The waiter was nice and checked on us. A little pricy $35 for just sesame chicken, app and the standard rice that accompanies. I think lunch pricing is better but we missed the time frame

    Loved it! So good, amazing service. We had the peanut curry and it was really delicious and had a creamy yet complex flavor. Not to watery or too thick and sweet, pretty great! Fresh chicken and veggies in it! We also tried the deep fried dumplings and they were good. I think they pan fried them for us upon request, actually. The dough was a little on the thicker side which isn't my favorite but my husband loves doughy foods and he seemed to love them. I got a lunch special and it came with soup and soup crunchy noodles, egg roll and rice. I got sesame chicken because I often like to see how a place makes it and was excited it was labeled and indeed arrived, white meat chicken. Can't wait to find an excuse to stop by again. They had aquariums with fish that I know my little one would love to look at on a future visit. The interior was super clean and well decorated and they had lots of booths and tables. Nice ambiance. Reminded me of those older fashioned Chinese restaurants that are hard to find these days:)

Carts rotate and display their options to you frequently as you enjoy your meal. So tou can order plates as quickly as you finish them. I recommend the pork buns and pork ribs. My favorite this time around were the leek dumplings with a side of noodles. We finished off with a coconut bun that wasn't too sweet. It was the perfect finish to the meal with ample amounts of tea. Use the kiosk up front to reserve your spot!

    This place used to be the classic on dim sum, but the food seemed to be very generic now…read more XLB or soup dumplings is always the classic for most dim sum or Taiwanese eateries. Here unfortunately looks to be pre made by some factory somewhere and not freshly made? From picture, you can see the skin stick to the tin container and thus the soup has all leaked out. The beef with flat noodles was also a bit disappointing in that the beef has no texture as in they used too much baking soda in overly tenderizing the meat. The noodles also seemed thinner than the ones I'm more used to back home in Texas. Overall, it was just an ok place, which was a disappointment since I drove my mom from ft collins just to have some dim sum with here for the weekend I'm here visiting.

The staff was super friendly, knowledgeable, and helped answer a few questions we had about different dishes. We had about a 20 minute wait for our table, so we grabbed a couple cocktails at the bar first. I had the Harmony in Beijing and my girlfriend had the Oolong Old Fashion. Both were really refreshing and a great way to start dinner. One thing we really liked was the ordering style. Once you're seated, you just keep picking out small plates you want to try, just like a lot of dumpling shops in China and Japan. It honestly brought back memories from my trips over there. The atmosphere and decor was beautiful and felt authentic without trying too hard. Our favorites were the Spicy Cucumber Salad, Spicy Green Beans, Beef & Vermicelli Dumplings, Hot Sea Pork and Shrimp Dumplings, Pork & Chive Dumplings, and the Crab Rangoons. Everything was fresh and came out pretty quick. We also ordered the Chicken Lo Mein, but I only had one bite because we bought it to give to a homeless woman we met at the park near where we were staying. The biggest downside is the price. It's very, very expensive for what you get. Dumplings that were basically the same size and quality as ones I ate all over Japan for $4-$7 were over $14 here. A pretty small plate of stir fried green beans being around $20 was kinda hard to justify. The only dishes we really didn't care for were the Chinese Style Broccoli, which was pretty plain and lacked flavor, and the Pork & Mushroom Dumplings. They tasted good, but they were dry enough that I probably wouldn't order them again. Overall, we really enjoyed our dinner and would definitely come back, but probably only for a special occasion. The food and experience were great, but the pricing keeps it from being a place we'd visit regularly or for a casual night out.

My group of 7 shared the roasted pork, pork and duck barbecue. I'm not a fan of duck so it would not be fair for me to write anything about it, but those who loved duck meat said that this place serve wonderful barbecue duck. As for the pork, both roasted and barbecue, they were so good. We had a little bit of white rice to eat with the meat, but really, you don't need the extra rice in order to eat these two types of pork meats. Since both styles of the pork were prepared differently, I cannot say one is better than the other: they were both delicious. The crunchiness and the flavorful from the roasted pork, as well as the aroma and the soft chewy from the barbecue pork, brings this dining experience to the next level. We also ordered the yu stir fry choy sum in garlic, the combination fried rice, and salt and pepper shrimp. I highly recommend the yu choy and shrimp dishes. I would skip the fried rice and get their beef chow fun, which is exactly what my other group of 6 did. In addition to what were mentioned above, they ordered Chinese broccoli, daikon and beef in clay pot, Taishan five spice duck, salted fish & chicken fried rice. Everyone enjoyed their food and dining experience here. Conversations were easily understood and heard. When asked what their favorite dish was, all of us said we liked everything, but when pressed to give one special dish, several folks mentioned the roasted pork, the clay pot, and the salt and pepper shrimp. Service here was excellent. The manager was very accommodating to our large group of diners, coming back and making sure we are doing fine as he refilled our water glasses. If you are looking for legit Chinese barbecue pork and duck, you don't need to look further: it's here at Happy Cafe BBQ. Enjoy!
