A delicious treat

by Saddler at Citysearch

Happy Family has one of the largest menus I've ever seen. The made to order buffet alone has something like 80 dishes, including vegetarian versions of foods that you just can't get anywhere else. Most everything I've ever tried here is tasty.

Service is fast and polite, and there is actually ample free parking in an underground garage.

I've been going here for about five years, and have enjoyed it every time.

• Pros: Buffet
• Cons: None

Terrible Food and Service!

by fluteplyr011 at Citysearch

The food is super greasy. I mean, there's no meat in any of the dishes, so how does all that grease get there? We didn't even finish our food, and neither did the people who were seated next to us. Everyone left full dishes on the table to look for better food elsewhere. The service was terrible. No one would fill our tea, even though the server kept walking by us. They kept taking care of the "high-end' customers in the private rooms. It took us over 30 minutes to get them to bring us our checks. Definitely not recommended.

• Pros: None
• Cons: Everything!

My Favorite Restaurant in LA Area

by lilacsky at Citysearch

I have been a customer of Happy Family for about 4 years now and have never had a bad experience. The food is fresh and delicious and the waitresses are friendly. My favorites are : sesame chicken, dry sauteed string beans, soy fish and their hot and sour soup! I have brought at least 30 different people to Happy Family over the years and not a single one was disappointed. In regards to the racism charge another person left, I've brought people from every ethnicity and never experienced a difference in service. They do get busy there so sometimes you have to get their attention when you walk in to get a table. I highly recommend Happy Family to anyone that enjoys great food and an extensive all-you-can-eat menu!

• Pros: great food, all-you-can-eat menu, reasonably priced
• Cons: so far from west la!
