  BRAVO HAPPY DRAGON. First time visitor and new to the city. I love Chinese food! I ordered the General Tso chicken delicious. For money hard to beat for Chinese!

  Purchased the Thai Curry Chicken. I am unable to eat rice due to dietary/medical reasons. Asked if I could substitute the rice (half the meal) for a cup of soup instead. Shouldn't be a big deal should it? Answer, NO-Rice or nothing.  
  
  Hopefully the food is better than the service and the desire to have repeat customers.

  It's hard for us to find a Chinese restaurant we really like.  Back in Michigan there was one in the town we lived in that set the bar pretty high.  We thought we found "our" Chinese restaurant with Peking City Bistro, but that place is now a disaster.  China King is OK, but it's bare-bones Chinese with no atmosphere.
  
  Enter Happy Dragon.  Just a few miles away and nestled inside Tyler Village, I think we've finally found the place we can call "our" Chinese restaurant.
  
  It's not full service, but it's "order at the counter and we'll bring it out to you" service.  The place is minimally but tastefully decorated, and doesn't sport the kind of immersive/overwhelming menu that some Chinese restaurants do.  Sometimes having fewer things to chose from is better.
  
  Food delivery was less than ten minutes and was served steaming hot...and it was SO effing good.  Honestly, I don't think it took me ten minutes to finish my meal.  I wasn't in a rush, I was just fungry, and this hit. the. spot.  My only issue (if you could call it that) was that it didn't measure up to the spice level I ordered, but since it was our first visit I didn't have any kind of heat gauge to go by.
  
  Drinks come from cans/bottles.  No fountain drinks, so drink price are per-bottle.  If you're looking for a refill, reach in your pocket.
  
  When I eat an egg roll I like to add some hot mustard because, hey, it's been a while since I felt fire travel up my nostrils to the back of my head.  I prefer a store-made hot mustard and Happy Dragon only has the little pre-made packets that look like a bad idea and desperation.  As a result, and as much as I tried to use, I wasn't able set my scalp on fire.
  
  With the demise of Peking City Bistro, Happy Dragon is where we'll be getting our Chinese food fix.  And I am OK with that.

  This was our first time eating here. Now our favorite. Flavor of fried rice is great.  Also had Bourbon chicken, sweet and sour chicken and wonton soup. All tasted great.

  We were nearby and had heard from friends that the food here was good. Like many similar places this is a semi-service were you order at the counter, go sit at a table and they bring everything out to you. This is a family run operation and when we walked in the mother and her young son were behind the counter. The father was in the kitchen helping cook. The son was working the cash register and with a big smile asked us for our order. He was very cute, proficient and had a great personality for his age. My wife ordered her favorite, Hot & Sour Soup and Moo Goo Gai Pan W/Fried Rice. I ordered Hot & Sour and the Spicy Happy Family W/Fried Rice. Our friend ordered the Extra Spicy Hunan Triple. We sat down and very shortly the mother brought out our soup. Just as we finished the soup she brought our meals. The very generous portion meals are served in a large bowl with the rice on the side. Everything was served hot and delicious and we especially enjoyed the Hot & Sour Soup. We wish it was closer as we would certainly make this place a regular stop.
