I really love the food there, very authentic and tasty, I was told by a staff that they changed to a new owner and food quality was guaranteed. Very good customer service and nice winelist, we will come back soon!

Delicious food, very authentic and homemade.

We had the satay beef and fried dumplings as entrees; the satay sauce had a nice flavour but it was a little thin and watery. The dumplings were delicious!

For mains we had 'lamb with spring onion' and 'beef and vegetables with hot chilli sauce'. Both of these were delicious. I found that the beef was a little softer and more flavourful than the lamb, but both were overall really nice. Do keep in mind that the 'beef with vegetables in hot chilli sauce' is definitely quite spicy; even if you think you're good with spicy food, I think you should be careful with this one.

For dessert we had gold and silver mantou, which was also very nice, and felt very relieving to be eating after the spicy main meal.

Staff were very kind and friendly, and we weren't waiting too long at all before the food started coming out. Prices are also super reasonable - I have no idea why this place has 3/4 dollar signs on here. Mains are, on average, a mere $17-$20 each. Also do check out their banquet menus if you're looking to eat a lot on a budget; I believe they had a banquet menu for two people that came with I think 2 entrees and either 2 or 3 main meals, all for $30!

My only complaint with this place is that the English descriptions of the dishes are a little off. I'm not very familiar with the Chinese names of dishes - I just know what they look like, not what they're called - so I relied on the English names listed instead. 'Beef and vegetables with hot chilli sauce' just sounded, to me, like some beef and vegetables stir-fried in some kind of thin chilli sauce. If I had known that the dish was 水煮牛肉 (in English I think it's just known as "shuizhu") I probably wouldn't have gotten it, as the spiciness is a little too much for me. It also didn't include very many vegetables as the English name had implied it would - just some onion and bean sprouts. The only reason we'd ordered this one was because we thought that 'lamb with spring onion' wouldn't have many - but it turned out to have a lot while the beef didn't have many at all.

Ate in the restaurant and had fried dumplings, hokkien chicken noodles, Mongolian beef (which came sizzling on a hot plate) and Bok choi and mushrooms. They brought us prawn crackers to munch on whilst the rest was prepared very quickly.
The Mongolian beef was tasty with a sweet and spicy sauce. The fried dumplings were well filled and the flavours were well balanced. The bok choi had a mushroom flavoured sauce and was cooked just right. We'd ordered the noodles for our three year old but there was too much so they packed the leftovers up for us.
Overall very happy with our meal and the service.
It would be good if child portions were available.

Tasty food!. We order takeaway from here a couple times a month - love it!! The vegetarian spring rolls are always hot and crispy, served with a plum sauce(?). The veggie fried rice is another guaranteed good dish. We tend to order the same mains every time - crispy sesame beef, salt and coriander chicken and szechuan pork. We've never been disappointed with the quality or quantity of the food. We haven't dined in so we can't comment on table service but our order is always ready when they say and the staff are friendly when we pick it up.

A place that has been at the same spot for many years which we used to go when we were at uni. It looks like it has been renovated as it is cleaner and brighter than before with more Chinese style decorations. The food tastes better than I expected, but the serving size is not big. Staff are friendly with good customer services, maybe under new management.

I really enjoy food and customer service there. The girls are friendly and would like to recommend Chef Special to me if I'm not sure what shall I order, eg. Sizzling Garlic King Prawns and Mongolian beef are my favorite dishes. The beef not chewy, very tender and tasty. King Prawns are so big and yum! Salt & Pepper Squid is thin battered and so delicious! Definitely would go back to there!

Happy hours @ Happy Corner Accidentally walked in with mates the other day. The food here amazed me. Tbh some of the dishes were even better than the ones I had in China. Not only the food tasted great but also the presentation was really good. All of us had food-gasm :P The dishes we ordered were mostly spicy bc all my mates like chilli. But on the menu, there are all kinds of choices. They have vegetarian and gluten free options as well. They offer all sorts of alcohol and non-alcohol drinks and happy hour is from 5-8 (I think). Unfortunately I was the designated driver that day I only had soft drinks. Beside top rated food, they offer excellent service. Special thanks to the nice lady who served us that day. Your job was perfect. Thank you. Now Happy Corner is on my top list of Chinese restaurants in Adelaide and one of the best in the northeast suburbs. I’ll definitely recommend it.

We live close by and love their sizzling Mongolian lamb and chicken in black bean sauce, they were so tasty! Service is also great with a wide range of wines to choose, Annie’s lane , squealing pig, Wynn’s connawara estate, penfolds and pepper jack. Will definitely come back again!

Honestly Speaking, it's the most authentic Chinese restaurant in the eastern suburb in Adelaide. I love their fish fillet in Szechuan chili sauce, sweet and sour pork, Peking duck (2 courses), sizzling garlic king prawns. They also changed a new wine list and menu which has lots of famous wines at a reasonable price. I would high recommend people to come to try their food! Very yum with great customer service and beautiful decoration!
