Reviews of Happy Jack's Restaurant & Patio (Restaurant)

Jeff Ewell

This place is amazing!

Chuck Fluri

Good Chinese food. Prices have gone up considerably and portions are smaller than they were. It could be a 5 star but the value is not there, sadly. Service is great and the owners/staff are very friendly.

Nathan Van Natter

Great food, very good service, patio is open right now, you can sit right next yo the Niagara river!

Megan Martin

drunkennewfie midget

Being next door to Ming Teh, which is great Chinese food, it took me a while to finally try Happy Jacks. The food here is delicious. Fort Erie is low on a lot of diversity when it comes to food, but American style Chinese food isn't included; there's a glut of it here and it's all good.

Marina Ross

Take out

Christine Whittaker

Great people and the food is delicious Highly recommended

Sarah Roth

Service was great, food came fast, atmosphere was relaxing. We'll be back. Didn't have room for dessert but it looked delicious so next time.

Charles J. Murphy

Excellent food, friendly receptive staff, best Chinese food I've ever had, multiple dishes served to a bus of 60 all hot, all homemade, very flavorable and service very efficient for such a large group!

Colin Gross

Popular place, but I'm not a fan.

Angela

Best Chinese food I have ever had and great service

MBB

When I first stepped into Happy Jack's, the inside was pretty crowded but I wasn't to worried because I was going to sit at the patio that came with the restaurant. The staff were pretty nice and the price wasn't too expensive.The food came really early and I didn't expect it. When all the food arrived, it was really good so I would give this 4 out of 5 stars.

Thang Tran

I don't get here often but when i do it's always a pleasure. The staff and owners are friendly and helpful.

Helen Nikles

Jinxxed Owl

Great selection and delicious food

James Hanna

Great Cantonese food

Allan Wheelock

I learned when visiting here this is a business that has been around a while and I hope if I ever get back it will still be there. Food was excellent, only thing I got there kind of late and alas the meal I wanted was sold out. My second choice was excellent.

James Barwell

Good lunch menu. Good food.

Mark Lane

Food was delicious.

Ciocia Jenny Book Corner

Stopped in for lunch. The place was empty, I was the only eat-in customer at that time. One of the owners was my server and he was not very polite. The small bowl he brought to my table containing the hot mustard had dried up mustard surrounding the rim of the bowl which made me wonder how long the mustard had been sitting in the bowl? Food was so-so but overall bad service. I will not be a return customer.

Voula Carriere

Took the family to Happy Jacks for the first time yesterday. We sat on the patio overlooking the water. Service was quick friendly and the food was fresh and tasty. Probably the best Chinese food we've ever had. Will definitely be back and will recommend it to family and friends.

shamine paul

Expensive and 2 whole ribs. Chris Rock saw it coming with just 1 rib! Sad.

Elizabeth Smallwood

I ordered over 6000 worth of food on a dinner for three I was very disappointed with the food never again

keith s

Owners are very friendly and the food is top notch.

Cyndi Wong Lorenzo

Their food always tastes so fresh! Love it there.

Justin Keswick

The best Chinese food in the western NY southern Ontario area if not best anywhere. The food is consistent the fried rice is the best our family has ever had. We have been going for 30 yrs and look forward to it every time. Owners are great people and restaurant has a family feel to it.

Norm Sisler

Very good food

Tom Pytlewski

A Fort Erie and Buffalo favorite. Great food,staff and service. Been going there since the 70's and never disappointed. Family is well liked in community

Excellent experience eating here! Very hospitable staff, great service, excellent chef prepared food done fresh! I will definitely be returning!

Donna Wlosinski

the food was great, one star off for the waitress that got upset when i couldnt afford to tip

Serpico L

Delicious food kinda expensive

Stephanie Freeman

My first time to this restaurant and ordered pork eggplant rice. It's a delightful sweet flavor with enough food to fill a starving man up. Expecting something good, so a 4-star for now.

Deborah Sims

Great Chinese food, great service.

Martin Holder

The convenient hours and delicious food make this a regular stop for us anytime we're in town! I've been eating here for 35 years and I don't think I could ever have a complaint! The Niagara River Parkway has a great walking trail if you over do it, and it's just a couple doors down!

Jenn Bruggeman

THE best!!

Sue London

The food is great. The staff is wonderful. I have food allergies and they go out of their way to help me pick foods I would like that won't contain anything I can't eat. They've even special made several items for me, and pointed out things others at the table ate that I should avoid in case we share food. It is always a worry free eating experience.

Cory Muldowney

Amazing. Best Chinese food in Niagara.

Sherri C

We were here with a group of over 20. Everyone enjoyed their food

Good prices, large portions.

Louise Wilkinson

We were passing through on a trip, and decided to stop in for a try. What a nice surprise. The place was clean, and the staff very polite. We had a nice dinner, that was reasonably priced without having a staff member leering at us the entire time. I'd assuredly stop in next time we pass through!

Ben Chieffo

Food is awesome!!

Ryan Smith

Great food

Barb and Bob Jauch

Today my wife and l visited Happy Jacks in Fort Erie.

SRmainecoons Maine Coon Cattery Kittens & Babies

We come here fairly often. The food is always very good and served quickly. Always plenty left over to take home. Service is excellent, never pushy and you never feel rushed.

Tammy Arsenault

Great food great service

Ray RattleHead

Food was bad and service was worse. Spring rolls and egg rolls were not like I am used to and chicken fried rice was bland with more mushrooms than chicken. It took a while to get our drinks and I asked for more water and a couple of minutes later after filling my water she came by and scolded me... "I give you more water and you no drink it." Then she again scolded us after our meal "You order 1 meal to split and no finish."

PT109

Horrible place . I took my wife here for dinner and the owner was so annoying the people in the room kept on rolling their eyes and laughing when he goes around talking to everyone. My wife didn't like the food at all and I felt annoyed when I was there. There is way better places in Fort Erie

Christopher Carter

Good food, big portions, friendly staff

Tammy Gaines

I love Happy Jack's ???? ????

Jacob Grant

If you are looking for family style Chinese, this is the place.

GABE VAZQUEZ

The same delicious quality Asian cuisine for decades..

ED MUELLER

We had early dinner there last night and the food was pretty good. My eggplant dish was a little bland but still tasty. The fried jumbo shrimps were delicious and so were the other dishes that we had ordered. Just this spring we were in China and honestly the food here was more tasty then in China. Shocking but true...... Service was great as always. The only thing that really could use some change is the interior decor, it's outdated and not very inviting.

Terry S

Personally my favourite place for excellent food. Service is great. Alvin and Jack are wonderful!

Nick Dama

Great food great service as always

Julio Silva

John Newton

Another fine meal with a few friends. Generous and attentive service makes it all the more worthwhile.

Steve Pearce

Went for Dinner recently and was blown away! We were informed that all of the sauces for each dish were homemade in-house, and boy it shows! The meal presentations were exquisite and the dishes themselves had great portions. We also enjoyed the patio area at the back overlooking the Niagara River. I have already strongly recommended my circle of friends visit Happy Jacks!

AIDEN WEBB (Student)

I've never had a bad visit here. That's why we keep coming back. Both food and service are excellent and they always manage to make you feel like family.

Mrs Lowry

Old school Chinese and love it.

Wendy Thistle

Our Family been Bless to have our Business over 49 years & counting. Yes, I am owner of Happy Jack's Restaurant. I have exciting new this Summer with new Seafood (Alaskan crab legs, Dungeons Crab, Mississippi Craw-fish, Mahi Mahi, & more). Come to see me. We are open 7 days a week. We never close.

Shade Raven

Good place to eat lunch. Priced right for lunch.

Susan Marley

This is our Christmas eve tradition!

Sara Wolfie

Yes....I do admit this place does need a little decor upgrade. I'm certain it in the works already. This area is under transformation and a famous new restaurants just opened next door. What I want to say is Happy Jack's make the most Amazing Chicken Balls and their condiments are exceptional. That "Deep Fried Thing" we've come to expect from all Chinese restaurant, Oh....and their portions can serve an army.

Shawn Williams

It's allways the best

Robin Robin

Excellent Chinese food and grrrrrrr8 service! Figures the place has been around for 50 years.

TomCrossSound

Fantastic, as always!

Greg Watson

Really nice place & great food!

Spike MacAllan

Jack and Alvin run the best Chinese food restaurant not in China in my opinion. These guys have been doing this their entire lives. I go every chance I get, and would rate them 6 stars if I could. EDIT: if you enjoy frozen Chinese food, or the crap you get from a Wal-Mart deli... Well... Good on you. I have had MANY MEALS FROM "authentic" Chinese restaurants, and nothing comes close to the quality and taste at Happy Jacks. That is the reason I go into Canada anymore besides the expos. Haters are just gonna hate, I suppose.

stephanie mcivor

Great food Friendly Staff. I will definitely be back.

Jay Haywood

Great food and customer service but the prices are quite high compared to most Chinese food restaurants.

Dan D

Service is great, food was cooked very well and flavours are good but the restaurant needs a renovation and an update to the menu for me to come back and dine again.

Patricia MacPherson

Great food portions and quality. Happy friendly service.

Dan Kraus

Best Chinese food around. I recommend you get the fried chicken wings but ask for them to do them up like the jumbo chili shrimp. Amazing! Enjoy

Chris Haun

On a tour to Canada with 28 other people. We had a great experience at Happy Jack’s for dinner this evening! Food was delicious and the service was exceptional!

dave manweiler

Great food. Descent prices... very fast service.. been a staple of fort erie for quite a long time..try the deep fried crab ragu

tall1z

Great classic Canadian/American-style Chinese food. Seems like management has been passed on to next generation, which is good because bathrooms and interior are a throwback to 30 years ago. Entryway looks like a lobby of an old movie theater complete with the glass cabinet of snacks. Really badly needs to shut down for a month or two and do a complete interior renovation so that customers on a trip to the restroom aren't forced to question their decision to have eaten the food there.

Diane Hassett

Food is so good, love the chicken balls and chow mein. Would eat everyday if I could. Staff are friendly, too.

Rick Bertran

The staff is sooo friendly

Charles Saia

This place food is really only for American, price is okay

ELLIOT MANSQUAT

Excellent food and service. Will return.

Always good fresh food.

aofadero

Fast curtious and the food was fantastic

Christine

Best Chinese food in western ny very friend ly staff

Patricia Richard

I have to admit, the takeout we ordered the other night was awful. No flavour at all. Growing up in Fort Erie, I have dined in many times and it was good, but this was years ago. What happened?

juan leche

Great food

Paul Gent

Service

Lexie Thomas

Good food

Ralph Martin

Awesome Chinese Have been coming here since the 1970s. Consistently good, excellent value and very polite staff. I have had many great meals here and bring visitors etc. as a treat. Their desserts are also fantastic. Never enough room to eat them in the restaurant but we take them home!

Lynda Trevean

I've been going here since I was 9. Great restaurant with excellent food! The best spot for Chinese in this area.

KC Flynn

Great food

Joe Moretti

Great memories, I used to being my , then girlfriend, there in 1964, later we married and had beautiful memories of this restaurant.

Adelaide Holmes

Attention!!! By far the best Chinese food on the Niagara Peninsula. If not Ontario. I'm not sure about msg options. Food is fresh. Eating in is always a great experience. Waiting staff usually very new to Canada ,so be patient with their English ( but the are very good at thier jobs.) I always feel like leaving an extra large tip) Take out is always fast and hot and fresh. Management is good to great, depending on who is working. Never had a bad experience. We travel from Niagara falls often for dinner, and eat at one of the beautiful rest/ parking areas along the Niagara Parkway ( most have picnic tables and garbage cans. The restaurant also has a great patio on the back of the restaurant overlooking the Niagara River. Secret tip, ask for the special wings????( not on menu). Hope this helps!!

Song Neal

Service is awesome and friendly! The food is great! I definitely recommend giving this place a try if you've never tried it.

Henry Bojanowski

Be cautious of this company.. Their prices are easily 20% higher than what is advertised on their website (but it is "outdated and will be updated soon"), and they charged $5 for "free delivery on orders over $25" The food was good, unfortunately their business practices were not.

Ed Mang

Very nice restaurant and the service is excellent

Linda Sider

Foods great. I have never had a problem with eating from here. For $40 i can feed my family of 4 for 2 days :) gotta love leftovers.

Diane Gangloff

Great food

Ron Byjoo

I gladly travel almost an hour to cross the border for their food! My parents have taken me here since I was a child and I have loved it ever since! Great service, fantastic food, great atmosphere and after you can walk a few short feet and see the river. THE BEST!

Charlotte Albert

Great food

Terry Scott

Been going here for decades, our favorite Chinese restaurant!

justine sleeth

The food, pricing & service is always good here. They are very considerate of my msg allergy, and make certain that none of my food contains even a tiny trace of it.

j luciano

Everything about this place is great: the location, food and service. Go today and thank me tomorrow!

Penny Smith

A family Chinese restaurant on the spot for a long time. Good food, good value and right next to the lake.

Karen Andreozzi

Forgot parts of the meal and long wait, but food tasted pretty good, except for the soup.

Denise Borean

Have had better, but then again I was born in Toronto and ate lots in Chinatown.

John Volo

I LOVE this place! Fabulous food every time...I travel from way out of town to eat here...Family friendly people and excellent food... Well worth the trip!

Michael March

Three words. De-lic-ous...

Anthony Giarrizzo

My family has ordered food here many times. The food always delicious and fresh. Unfortunately the last 3 times we have ordered it has been awful. We have received horrible tasting, reheated and old tasting food 3 times in a row. We had a chicken dish that tasted like the plastic container it was served in (im assuming reheated in the container) spring rolls, egg rolls and chicken balls that were cold and hard but had that look and taste like they were cooked some time ago. The first 2 times i thought it was a fluke but now after 3 times in a row I'm just offended. I am disappointed that they think its acceptable to serve food like this. You know what your doing when something is reheated or you serve someone food that has been sitting around for a while. Owners seem like very nice people and I would want to know if my customers were having these experiences.

Selena Perez

Great place.... great food!

Jackie Frees

All of the food we ordered tasted good however our main dish, lobster chun king, the most expensive offering on the menu at $50 + was a huge disappointment. It was advertised as containing two 5 to 6 oz. Lobster tails so we ordered it expecting exactly that, but since they were cooked in cut up shells, we had to work especially hard to dig out the overcooked meat and were lucky to be able to pick out 3 oz. at best. Management's response to our comments was nonchalant and we paid full price for our trouble. Not a result that will bring us back!

wayne brown

Best Chinese food in Buffalo/Canada area by a mile gone there over 25 years. War bar and best wonton and eggroll ever

Jennifer Elizabeth

We always enjoy our take out from Happy Jack's. This evening we had a large dinner for 8 on the back patio. Alvin was very friendly and accomodating and our food was wonderful. We ordered a bunch of fun drinks which were instagram worthy (fun tropical umbrella drinks). The view of the river is one of the best you can find. Highly recommended.

Sophie Ouellet

Great food friendly staff made us feel part of the family. Keep up the great work.

Greg Gwynne

This has been my favourite restaurant since I was little girl. I have lived all over Niagara and no where comes even close to comparison. Food is perfect every time and staff is also incredibly friendly.

Classic Chinese restaurant that my family has been going to for decades. Food is delicious and worth the drive. The inside is a bit outdated but it kind of adds to the charm. Food is fresh and hot when you get it. Rice is moist and amazing when you get it.

The worst wonton soup I have ever had on my life. The food was flavorless.And when I call to get my money he said I could only order something else and was ride about it.If your looking to enjoy your lunch or dinner do not go to this restaurant.Jack is not Happy.

Smitty

Love coming to Happy Jacks to eat good food and receive great service..they are so friendly there and always willing to help with good suggestions for food :)

lori Shawver

Best Chinese in the area

Taina Hernandez

Went with my fiancé and son. We both got our food mine was good and came first his was a bit later and he had a hair in it. When we told them they very nicely apologized and took it back and said they would make a new one. When it came back it was not even five minutes later, cold, and the vegetables tasted watery. It was almost as if they were just rinsed off and thrown back on the plate. Very upset with how the staff handled this situation and would not recommend this place.

Jan Proy

Always great food

Ann Martin

Great food and service!

Sue Cane

Always a good time and great food

Frances Ricci

The rice we ordered had gone bad and when I called to have new rice delivered they refused and only offered a credit. Couldn't enjoy the rest of the food after that. Very disappointed.

valerie burns

Good food good service as always

Re

It was very good tonight. Sometimes it can be hit and miss. But when it's a good day, it's fabulous. Still recommend this place. ????

T Kiser

food was good.. but the restaurant manager took our tips as soon as we left them for our waitress, so not impressed!

Turf Cloud

Our meal was 1st class...hot, plentiful, delicious and fast

Moaz Ahmad

This is a classic Chinese Canadian food spot beside the Niagara River. On the patio you have a great view of the river and the Peace Bridge in the distance. Seeing Buffalo across the river is a fun experience. When we arrived my son saw an Amtrak train across the river heading north and was staring at it until it disappeared. The food was good...a bit salty but no major issues. The Lemon Chicken was very good. My wife really enjoyed the chicken fried rice.

Kevin Stablewski

Nice ambiance.

Jennifer Sorrell

Good food

Mary Lou Dalaire

Very clean and fancy. Friendly staff and food was wonderful, very large portions.

Renee Richley

Great food

Jessica king

Sadly very disappointed in my dish today. This is my second time ordering from this place. I ordered different items both time .. First time i would rate the food 3... Big chucks of veggies and little meat... However tonight, i order beef with Bok Choy and side of steamed rice... So basically I'm eating starch and stems. This dish there's like no green part of bok choy (the vegetable) all stems which is basically no nutrition with very little beef... Overall disspointed for the $$ spent... Will just back to my regular place in Ridgeway.

Bill Solly

Good food

Rick Harper

Love Happy Jacks been going there over 40 years! Great food!

Great food! Great owners!

Jennifer Maillet

Great atmosphere, great food, great location, and great service!

Rob Piper

Some of the best Chinese/Cantonese I've had. Sizzling pork was off the charts. Alvin put it over the top.

Beccala Thomas

Happy Jack's is a piece of Niagara region history. It's a popular destination for people both sides of the Canada and USA border. Happy Jack's offers a fabulous selection of choices which are conveniently also located on their website. Beyond the fabulous choices is the fact that their food is amazing. The quality of the food reflects in the taste. Happy Jack's foods tastes extraordinary.

Anne Karam

food is inconsistant

Wes Atkinson

Decades later, still great food.

Linda Harris

Best food rated

Lou Casagrande

Happy Jack's in Fort Erie has been our favourite stop when we get the urge for Chinese food for over 7 years. With a great menu of specialty and regular selections, you can mix and match to get the exact meal you desire...or take the easy way, choosing from preset choices. The food is always fresh, flavourful, cooked to perfection - seafood, sizzling dishes, vegetable choices, noodle and rice dishes, homemade egg and spring rolls...it's all THE BEST!!! The welcome by the owners, the friendly service and homey atmosphere make it a very enjoyable experience. Check out the patio too (in the warmer weather). I'm looking forward to Chinese New Year celebrations!!!! Keep up the good work guys!!! (Chopsticks are available for the brave hearted...)

Gurdeep Gill

I love the customer service here so much !

Amy Hobbs

If you are looking for great Chinese food, this is the place to go! The owners Brian and Jack are extremely kind and friendly. The portions are plentiful and prices a entirely fair. Try this place out next time the crave is on.

David Wasserstein

First time, met the owner, cool guy. Nice place, good food. Back patio has a nice view.

I had the Shanghai noodles today and they were about the best I've had anywhere. I also had the breaded shrimp which really disappointed me this time. It was 90% dough with tiny shreds of dry flat shrimp in them, really disappointing. I was still grateful because most of their food is the bomb and it's so close to home.

We decided to try Happy Jacks because it was advertised at out hotel. The service was friendly and fast but the food was just okay. The sweet and sour chicken had more batter than chicken which was a bit disappointing but the beef and broccoli had tons of beef and broccoli too. It was also unfortunate that the patio was closed because of a chance of rain as that was one of the drawing freatures of the restaurant.

My husband and I went to Happy Jacks for the first time this past Monday. We sat on the patio which overlooks the water. We were amazed at how good the food was. All the dishes we ordered reminded us of some of our favourites in Montreal. The service was great, staff was pleasant. I believe we were served by one of the owners. Portions are large - we had enough leftovers for 1 or 2 more meals. As seniors we cannot eat as much as we previously did. We will certainly be back and will recommend it to family and friends.

Worst food experience I ever had. won ton mein .bowl of broth with noodles no veggies.order general tao chicken to go.when got home it was a container of mush.no flavor at all.then I was belittled at the cash register for using my google pay.said they do not allow it because people could fraudulently use it.after I explained that I did not have my wallet he decided that he would allow the tap only this time.then belittled ne for not carrying my wallet for ID.then tried to explain to me that Fraud happens, he knows because he works for the government.very rude person.will never go there again.the only pleasant person I encountered was the young man who brought me my takeout.

Ordered chicken fried rice, chicken with almonds & vegetables and beef with broccoli. Great flavour and dishes were perfectly sauced, neither too little or too much. Substantial portions. Great service. We ate inside and I felt safe to do so. Highly recommend.

Pretty much a south end of Fort Erie landmark, here you'll meet three of the friendliest business brothers this side of the Peace Bridge. Oh, and did I mention they serve delicious Chinese and Canadian dishes on an outdoor patio with a panoramic view of the Niagara River? Family-owned since the 1970s by the late Jack's three sons, Alvin, Jeffery and Jack Chew.

I've been going to Happy Jack's for many years. It's been a little while since we were there and we went there tonight with friends from out of town. It was the first time for them and it was very disappointing. I've never walked out if there unhappy before. If tonight was our first time we'd never be back. Out of 4 meals, 3 were very bland. This was brought to their attention. Even the egg rolls were sub par. Worse yet, nothing was done to remedy an extremely poor meal and extremely dissatisfied

I love Chinese food and a year ago would tell you this place's food is great. But during and shortly after both myself and husband's last 4 trips eating there we got very very sick. The meat in our dishes were slimmy and had a bad smell to it. We discovered the Health Department had put many infractions against them that they were not correcting. I would suggest before eating here to go to the Niagara Health Department website and see if this restaurant has infractions against them. Unfortunately we will no longer be eating here.

Lyn Tarzwell

Bad service.

Gary Davis

Great food !

Craig D

Was told this was simply the best chinese food...maybe the hype was a little too much. I thought the customer service was great, very accommodating to our large group, restaurant was clean. Food was ok, a bit to salty for my liking though.

Paulette Quaile

The food is always amazing. I would have given it five stars if they honoured their online prices. When I phoned in the order nobody told me that the prices have changed.

Katherine Morningstar

The food, the service and the view from the patio where amazing as always. Still my favourite place for Chinese food.
