Happy Bee Kitchen

Second time here, and I can confirm this is the best Chinese food outside of the 626. It's a small mom and pop shop with limited tables, if you have a larger party you should call ahead to make a reservation. Portions are solid and the flavors are on point! I definitely want to try more new dishes next time, but here are the best dishes that everyone enjoyed:- French style fillet- Soft pan fried noodles- Honey walnut shrimp- House special chicken- Sautéed string beans w/ garlic- Salt & pepper anything

Not sure what happened to one of our orders earlier today. Everything looked good, except for a couple of dishes.1. First, the fried chicken didn't look like a normal Chinese fried chicken, and everyone at home (including our guests from overseas) noticed the same. Not only that most part were burned (that you can't really see and tastes a crispy skin), but the meat was so dry.2. Next was the fried calamari, which seemed to have been cooked on used and dirty oil.Overall, it wasn't good and bit disappointing, but I still gave 2 star for other dishes we ordered which were fine.Paging the owner to look into this :)

Plenty of parking in this plaza filled with several asian food joints. I always come to this area after I visit my Mama at Forest Lawn.Service was friendly and prompt. I ordered the Green Pepper Beef and Fish Maw Crab Meat soup. Both were decent. Generous portions and good quality meat.

I think we've just found our new favorite Chinese restaurant! Craving Chinese food, we turned to Yelp for guidance and discovered this gem. It turned out to be exactly what we were looking for.The food was amazing! The filet mignon French style was the star of the meal--absolutely delicious. The mixed vegetables were perfectly cooked, maintaining their crispness with just the right amount of seasoning. The noodles were also packed with flavor.The service was attentive, and while the restaurant is a small establishment, it had a nice, welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be coming back!

The food was tasty and that's why I gave 3 stars. Here's the bad...We got our food quickly but the waiter NEVER came back. There was something floating in my hot water. I had the shrimp in lobster sauce and one of the shrimp had the full vein. Gross. And they don't give you steamed rice with your entrees, you have to pay for it. I had high hopes for this place. But we won't be back.

This is a super solid Chinese restaurant in a bit of a run-down Asian strip mall. The plaza is inside a 99 Ranch plaza with some of the stores unoccupied, so it's got a bit of that depressing vibe. The workers are all Chinese and they allowed me to practice my basic Chinese, it was so much fun. They also offered me a spoon to pick up the roasted peanuts, however I graciously declined and commented that I was not a weak foreigner who was incapable of picking up peanuts with my chop sticks. The food was amazing. It's not exactly a hole in a wall place, but it's definitely not going to win any beauty contests. There are two restrooms for each gender and the upkeeping was prestine. I shoved the Mongolian Beef and most of the Hainan Chicken with 3 bowls of rice into my belly. The Mongolian Beef had a great balance between the meat and veggies. The Hainan Chicken was the chilled variety with the yummy ginger oil. The chicken was well seasoned inside out like a duck and the flavoring wasn't lost in the chilling process. The service was super friendly, expedient and attentive. I wouldn't of expected this quality of food from this plaza or from this storefront. I'm glad I came here on a family's recommendation, it's 20 times better than the stuff sitting in the heat lamp at 99 Ranch :)

Casual dining with great food!Service was fantastic and beyond. She packed our leftover for us and made sure we are happy.Im thanksful that this place is open on Thanksgiving day and to see families enjoying their meals here.House special lobster was delicious and so was other food.This bee is happy!

My family surprised me with an impromptu bday dinner here at Happy Bee.... first time here and it did not disappoint.. we ordered beef with scrambled eggs eggs, Mongolian beef and the French beef tips were all so delicious!! We also had shrimp and green bean chicken . All the flavors were perfect!! The service was also one to come back for.. the chef gifted us with freshly made sesame balls... the best I've ever tasted... our new place for Chinese food!

Been here a couple of times, mostly for takeout but occasionally for dine in. It's in the same plaza with 99 Ranch market and many other businesses.House Special Eggplant is unique and delicious. The eggplant is sliced to about 1/2 inch discs which are breaded and fried. These are warm and crispy and dropped into a typical Szechwan sauce for some sweet and spicy notes. Due to the prep method these are amazing when hot and fresh, and unfortunately do not reheat well later. Honey Walnut Shrimp is a common dish and prepared well here. Not too much breading in the shrimp, with heavy of the Mayo sauce on top. Walnuts are usually on the side next to the shrimp rather than sprinkled on, and there are a couple pieces of broccoli too ‍ Bean Curd Szechwan Style has variable spiciness, and even the mild still has a kick. French beef cubes are great and good for takeout. House Special Fish Filet is prepared similar to the eggplant, but the fish is softer and so I prefer the eggplant due to the firmer bites.

This is our usual takeout place when we want Chinese food since we don't have time to eat out these days. But before having kids we would come here at least every other week. Our usuals are honey walnut shrimp, filet mignon style beef, their fish tofu eggplant dish, house chicken, and west lake beef soup. Occasionally we will try something new and also order a veggie. Their service is really friendly and they speak mandarin and Cantonese. When I was heavily pregnant they were super friendly and helpful in advising what to order. It's a great place to have a large party since they have round tables but definitely call in advance.
