The enticing Chinese food and cultural ambiance attracts customers from all over the surrounding area- a sure sign of a successful business!

Happy Chinese Restaurant is dine-in establishment with a comfortable 2800 square foot dining space. The restaurant is littered with decorations and baubles to catch the eye. Decked in the eye-catching color red, Chinese knot, lanterns, chairs, and many other decorations help create a pleasing ambiance. Red is a lucky color in Chinese culture and its decoration delivers a meaning of happiness and delight.

The owner explains his humble goal: “Helping more and more American people understand the real, authentic Chinese food is the goal I am aim at. I hope I can integrate our splendid Chinese culinary art and culture into our food. Customers are not just enjoying our food, but our culture and culinary art.” Mr. Li is happy to introduce the background of a specific item if customers are curious about a dish’s origin.
