Chinese Cuisine
The popularity of Chinese food in America can be adjudicated by the appearance of China Town in many major cities in the United State of America. The popular trend of ordering or opting for Chinese take away food isn't unknown in America. Chinese take away food comes to rescue when you're too tired from work or too exhausted to cook. No one can resist the temptation of eating spicy noodles, shrimp, chicken, beef or pork cooked in the sweet and spicy sauce. The cooking method of authentic Chinese food is a lot different compared to what is served in America.
Generally, Chinese use dark meat small bones and organs to cook dishes but this changes when you are eating American-Chinese fusion food prepared using white boneless meat cooked with broccoli, carrots and onions. Back in China, the food is less spicy and oily as they favor steaming and braising method for cooking the most popular dishes. So, if you have a taste for authentic Chinese food, then try finding a real Chinese restaurant in the city. You can also try the most popular fusion Chinese food like Pecking Duck, Chicken Feet, Hot Pot, Shrimp Dumpling Soup, Mapo Tofu, Wontons, Chop Suey, Egg Rolls and not to forget Fortune Cookies.
There are not many restaurants in America serving authentic Chinese food. A little research on Restaurant Listings directory can help you locate the best Chinese restaurants in the city. Chinese cuisine is continuously evolving, and you can find a variety of dishes categorized as the food for lactose intolerant, gluten intolerant, vegan, vegetarian, and diabetic friendly. So, if you have a group of friends with different taste patterns, save the hassle and visit the nearest Chinese restaurant in your city.

Look, we've all been there, drunk in the middle of a Saturday and your funds are a little on the low side. Pizza is out of the question, since that's all you've eaten for the last four meals. Who are you going to call when you're too drunk to drive? This is where Happy Family comes in at. It is consistently on par. Nothing fancy. Nothing even great. But I appreciate such mediocrity. It's my favorite greasy Chinese food restaurant. My favorite to get is the chicken and broccoli with white rice. The owner (?) is always nice and smiley. So if your poor and hungry, go here. And they'll deliver when you don't want to or cannot drive.

All the requisite Chinese food elements: prints of Asian landscapes in frames so cheap they sag; dusty paper lanterns hanging from a drop ceiling that makes you wonder what this place once was... But as far back as I can recall now this place has been the home of down low take out, so they must be doing something right. Since I worship at the church of branch vegetarian, there's not a ton I can eat here. The giant menu that spans the north wall is full of absolutely nothing I'll eat, but every time I'm here I marvel at the thought of how-the-hell-they-get-that-in-here?! If the lights inside that thing still lit up the whole dining room would look like the briefcase from Pulp Fiction. Most of the things on the walls are put up with clear packing tape. This seems to include the linoleum wall panels themselves. The base boards are also covered in tape or they may possibly be made of tape... The multitude of promotional college sporting schedules are clearly the nicest things hanging. I ordered a variety of dishes with the intent of taking them home for review: Veggie Egg Foo Yung and Mu Shu Veggies (both on the menu) and Crispy Orange Tofu (which was not on the menu, but Orange Chicken was. They gladly substituted tofu.) My order was ready by the time I'd finished ruminating on their decor- maybe 10 minutes. The entire order was so large they found it easier to put it in a box instead of a bag, and I think I kept it under $20. I honestly didn't expect the food to be spectacular, since I had change from a 20 and enough food to feed a family of Sumo wrestlers, and it wasn't. Wasn't bad though. The highlight of the meal was the Orange Tofu I asked for. The Foo Yung was delicious, but the sauce it came with had some sort of animal stock in it and I ate a couple good sized bites before I smelled it. Yeah, I guess I'm going to vegetarian hell now. Whatev. Lastly, the Mu Shu was tasty. If you know anything about Mu Shu, you know it's not the most graceful of foods to eat, and take out is not the way to go. The rice pancakes have a very short shelf life. They get too dry, they crack, they get to wet, they break. If you can make it through more than one pancake before you just say forget it and start mixing everything together, which is what I did, you're doing good. Something tells me that someone somewhere who is really into authentic Chinese "street food" would think this is the best place in town. I, however, am more into the Chinese "not street food", and will relegate Happy Family Chinese Restaurant, like pretty much everyone else here, to the status of "where to eat when you're broke and don't want to drive."

Place is a bit run down but looks like many other Chinese takeout restaurants. The cleanliness is not the best.....did not seem super clean. Owner was very nice. I am originally from the East Coast so am looking for some good Chinese takeout here. This did not meet expectations......ordered the orange chicken and honestly not even s good as Panda Express. Fried rice and Egg Drop Soup seemed old. I ate here once and personally will not repeat. The price was very reasonable.

Food is usually decent, but the sanitation of this place is borderline at best. I went here fairly regularly until a few years ago when I witnessed some things that turned me off for a long, long time. Now I only visit on the rare occasion that I'm so burned out on everything else and am willing to overlook the lack of cleanliness and take my chances. Tip: Only order take out, don't ever eat in the store. Considering that the vast majority of their business seems to be take out, it really boggles the mind how the dining area could be so run down and dirty all the time. By the looks of things, you'd think it was packed with patrons spilling food all over the floor and walls. Bizarre.

Ehhhhh. Its not really good haha. But if you broke, its pretty affordable. I thought the rice tasted old... But the people are nice and its cheap enough to make up for the mediocre food.

Went here for the lunch special its a pretty good deal for under $6. You get a big meal and a drink. The cashier was nice to chase after me after I walked out to let me know that my meal came with a drink.

Pros: Inexpensive chinese food. Cons: Good gosh, the sanitation! Rice has been really dry the past few times I've been here. Also they burned my Egg Foo Yung. :( I want to like this place, I really do. The very first time I went here it was because Tea Cafe had too long of a wait and the food seemed pretty good. The last few times I've been sorely disappointed, though. Less than stellar cooking aside, I was looking around the place while waiting on my order and noticed a number of questionable health practices while waiting there. Poorly cleaned kitchens, no gloves/hand washing, hair in my food, and towers (literally) of unwashed pans stacked up on top of one another. I'm disappointed.

This place is like a Chinese McDonald's. It's cheap and fast, with huge portion sizes, but you get what you paid for. I'd give it 4 stars if they had air conditioning.

Sure, it isn't anything super-special. But Happy Family gives you pretty good Chinese at a price that's pretty tough to beat. I've been there several times and found the quality to be consistent, with no... ill after effects. You can get a complete meal here (entree and fried rice with an egg roll and a can of soda) for 6.25. If you're a snobby foodie, go elsewhere. If you would agree with the statement "My favorite part about food is that it tastes good." then give Happy Family a try. And yes, they are friendly.

Gross. This was probably the worst Chinese food I've ever had. I ordered Mongolian beef. There was no Mongolian seasoning/sauce at all. Just a ton of black pepper. As far as beef - there was maybe 1/6lb of beef and about 1/2lb of onion. So, if you like heavily peppered onion...then this is your place.
