Happy Asian Fast Food - Tacoma

Good cheap Asian fast food. Kinda like the happy panda place but made by Asian

We tried out this place a second time. We had a good experience ordering off the menu the first time. This time we wanted to try the Cambodian dishes in the hot wells. None of them e were labeled and it's very challenging to get a description of them from the lady wearing a mask behind a plastic shield. We asked for some samples. She was very stingy and would load a plastic spoon with about half teaspoon of sauce from some of the wells. Kind of like it was maybe precious nectar. We decided on two items, a ground mystery meat in oily red sauce and a soupy stew. We sat down. The soupy stew arrived in a large bowl and the oily mystery meat in a small bowl (meager serving! we asked for rice also. The food was ok but nothing special. We went to pay up. Each entry was about $15.00 and they charged us $5.00 for the rice (almost always free at most restaurants or at best a dollar!! Our total bill was $39.82 for two entrees and rice. I was very disappointed and felt ripped off. It seemed very pricey for food in a buffet type setting where we did most of the ordering and selecting at the counter.

We came in on a Sunday after church. We arrived with 3 adults and 7 kids. I could not believe they turned us away. They said we had to call 24 hours before to let them know we were coming in. I said I see that you have no other patrons would u make an exception if we sat at 3 different tables? She said no. This used to be the best Thai place in tacoma. I will never be a patron here again. I love supporting local family business but the new owners are going to run this place into the ground. We went next door to Pho Ever and they gladly welcomed our business.

Do not order from here or give them your business. At the very least they are prejudice, possibly racist. I went here after going to the gym and they had me take a seat so they could help the white people (who came in well after me) behind me first.

This is pre-cooked, cafeteria style Asian food. I would not come here again. The spicy orange chicken was not spicy at all. What a shame.
