Happy Family Chinese & Thai Restaurant — Restaurant in Berlin

Update 2025: Decided to provide an update and add recent photos of the food we’ve ordered (they’re the lunch portion size).

We still order from here at least 1-2x/month. Our favorite dishes are general tso’s chicken (very crispy). Beef ho fun or the thai version- pad see yu/see ew. I also like their house special and seafood soups, though I prefer mines salty so I add chicken bouillon powder.

The portion sizes are huge and generous for the lunch, dinner and regular options.

The average wait time is still ~15 minutes for pick up. Longer if they’re busy or if you placed a big order (30-35 mins).

Review from 2022: ————————————— The best Chinese American food in the area, hands down. Our favorite place on rt. 73 unfortunately closed down last year and no place has been able to replace them, until we ordered from here and only because we noticed that they have beef ho fun and we were in the mood for it but didn’t want to cook it or drive too far to get it.

The last time we ordered from here was 2018 and before then 2-3 times in 2017 before we called it quits (food was just bad and the wait time was 1 hour for pick up). So glad they changed owners, the food tastes waaay better and the wait time is 15-20 minutes NOT 1 hour. But this is for pick up since we don’t live within the delivery radius.

Have bought take out from here 4-5 times in the past 2-3 months. Never disappointed. What we’ve gotten so far is beef ho fun, lo mein, chow mei fun (all 3 are flavored very well and not overly greasy), pork fried dumplings and pad thai (not bad). Would recommend and continue to...

Ok, so…I almost left a bad review due to communication errors. My order included egg foo young, in which the gravy was sour/spoiled tasting. I called to notify the restaurant, and originally their resolve was to send out a new gravy…which they did. I was very dissatisfied, as I had poured the gravy all over the dish and requested they remake the dish. My mom drove to the restaurant at 8:00p, immediately upon walking in they knew the order. Once she explained how the gravy was poured over the dish the chef, without hesitation, told her to sit while he remakes it. The dish was remade, new gravy, fresh rice, and a free soda were given. I’ve been a customer for over 30 years and the customer service has always extended beyond that to customer care. I’ll continue to drive past other Chinese’s food establishments to go to...

I’ve been ordering from this restaurant for over 20 years. Love it but recently, I noticed that the steamed dumplings (which I always loved) have joined the “dark side. I.e. thick, no taste noodles. I am soo disappointed!! They must have changed suppliers or lowered their own expectations of quality. It’s so hard to find quality delicate (non doughy) dumpling, and I am disappointed that Happy Family has succommed to serving a less quality product, much the same as their competitors 😢. Please go back to your original quality...
