I've eaten here numerous times over the years and this place never disappoints. Sometimes they lack in condiments or forget to include a straw, but the food itself is always good. I particularly enjoy their tacos, burritos, tortas (especially their SUPER Tortas which easily take me 2 days to eat because they're so HUMONGOUS lol), their horchatas, their Happy Nachos, Happy Fries, regular fries, quesadillas (OMG the chicken Asado quesadilla is DELICIOUS, love the way they cook the chicken. My favorite meat at mexican spots is usually the Asada steak or the Pastor [has to have pineapples though], but their Asado Chicken is actually a contender), the beans, chips and salsa, literally nothing I've tried here was bad. Definitely a guilty pleasure of mine. Hell, I'm even considering ordering there again today....hmmm 🤔🤔 lol I do also like the lemonade but it's not usually available to order from Postmates or Uber Eats; can only get that when I order in person. But I usually just get the Horchata and have my own lemonade here at the house.
Definitely recommend eating here. I've never had their breakfast dishes, so can't really comment on those, but all their lunch/dinner dishes have been great. Keep up the good work, and try to make more condiments available. Not enough to knock off any stars, but it's a small critique. I'll continue to support and patronize this restaurant.
Leo's Taco truck on Venice and La Brea are still THEE best, but Happy Taco is def a good back up when I don't feel like going that far out of the way. I stay way closer to Happy Taco at the moment so I tend to patronize it the most. That may change whenever I'm ready to move from my current location. But sometimes when I'm out and about more West, I go to Leo's Taco truck for their bomb al pastor burritos and tacos. Leo's is also open a lot later than Happy Taco as well (till 3am) so that makes a...
Read moreOverall: 4.4/5 (delivery)
We ordered on Postmates, and the food was delivered in half an hour. All the portion sizes & prices were great.
Birria de Res Tree Tacos Plate ($16.95): I'm also craving birrias tacos when I want tacos. This was a great deal since other places charge like $5/birria tacos & extra $ for the consome. The rice and beans were okay and on the blander side. I didn't really like the consome and there wasn't a lot of meat. The tacos had a lot of meat but they were lacking flavor overall. Wouldn't get this item again.
Happy Burrito ($14.95): I saw a lot of good reviews for their burritos so I had to try one of their popular ones. The happy burrito did not disappoint and was so good! There's 3 type of proteins so I was pretty full from eating half of it. Everything about it was good except the grilled carne asada had a lot of the tendons so i had to chew and spit these out a couple of times (definitely not cute for a date). Other than that issue, this is probably my favorite item.
Cajun Shrimp Crispy Taco ($6.95): We didn't eat our food right away so we were quite surprised that the taco shell remained crispy the entire time. The shrimps were big and juicy. All the right flavors were there. I can see why this is a popular item. This was also my husband's favorite item of...
