My wife and I go here as much as possible. I love the sesame chicken and usually get a 2 item bento box along with some unagi. Super good and the 1 item bento is such a deal being $12. Haven't had a bad visit yet!

I love this place. Every time I've been here the food is delicious. The tempura shrimp and veggies are always cooked perfectly. My kid tried the sesame chicken with a ginger sauce and it was wonderful. The ginger sauce wasn't overpowering. I'm not a big fan of flavored ice tea but they have a raspberry ice tea that is very refreshing.

We went to Happy Garden because we are looking for some place new and it had outstanding reviews. I do not know if it is under new ownership or employees called in sick but our experience was disappointing. First, I will say on the positive side the gentleman that took our order and served us was very nice. He repeatedly apologized though he did not say specifically what for and thanked us. Also, the prices were relatively inexpensive but not what I would consider a bargain especially given the quality. Well the gentleman was very nice, the service was extremely slow. There were two other parties in the restaurant when we got there and one came in close to when we were leaving. It was not what I would consider especially busy. It was quite a long time before he came over to take our order. Then, it took around an hour for it to come out. It was reaching the point where we were tempted to get up and walk out. We had considered driving into Stockton to go to our favorite sushi restaurant and given the amount of time it took for service, we probably would have been home about the same time though we would have burned more fuel and spend more at the restaurant. We ordered an appetizer and it was brought to us at the end after our meals. I noticed he also kept forgetting things for other tables and at one table brought they're entrees out roughly 20 minutes apart from each other. I was also disappointed with the food. Some of it could be choked up to a difference in taste. We got both sushi rolls and Chinese food. The Chinese food dishes we got were significantly different then the dishes by the same names at other Chinese restaurants. My wife and I were both disappointed but once again this specific issue could be a difference in tastes and preferences. My wife got a dragon roll and said it was fairly tasteless. I did not tasted so I can only go based on her opinion. I got a spicy tuna roll which was in my opinion mediocre. I prefer the local grocery store sushi over what we got there. It also was not fresh. The center of one of my roll slices from the center of the roll was still partially frozen in the middle. I realize they probably do a low volume and probably make a bunch ahead of time then freeze it and thaw it which I would rather have them do then eat fish that was not fresh but it is not what I would call high quality still. When he got our water, he brought a tub of ice out to the counter and was digging in it with his hands to get ice out for the cups. The ice was kind of stuck and he was really having to break it up with his hands. We ended up with out a lot of ice in the cups and the water was room temperature so quickly melted the ice but did not get the water super cold. I feel bad leaving a negative review especially since I wonder if this was an off night for some reason given how many positive reviews this restaurant has but at the same time, we picked this restaurant because of the reviews which it did not live up to. We will not be coming back here again.

Friendly local business. Sushi is as expected for a small town restaurant. If your expectations are what you would get in the bigger cities then you may be disappointed. The Chinese style is also not bad if your looking for that.

Clean establishment with friendly service by the owner and his wife. We tried an app and a couple rolls and were pleased with our choices.

The meals are good but the atmosphere is boring and so silent ! Play some Asian music or something. They have tv but never turn it on. Good food , just boring.

Everything was bland orange chicken was gross I guess the name of it only referd to the color. teriyaki chicken had almost no flavor and all the sushi rolls were to moist and soggy.

The sweetest older couple owns this restaurant. I wanted a mom & pop joint and that's what I got. The service and communication is GOOD HERE. The owner does cashier & server and he says "thank you very much" EVERY TIME to his customers. I would definitely come back just to see him smile again. I gave them all the loose dollars I had in my wallet as a tip.Parking: Private parking lot.
