Happy Bowl Camarilo Reviews
Love the decor after the renovations! Everyone is so nice and helpful! They recommend sampling all of the options! Made it really difficult to choose! I got half fried rice, half chow mein, orange chicken and teriyaki chicken. We had a great time and even had leftovers because of the healthy portions! It's ready to go like panda but has a homestyle taste.
I’ve been eating here since I moved to the area and hands down it’s the best Chinese spot. It not greasy like other spots, and doesn’t have you feeling slumped after. If you are looking for a healthier Chinese alternative I recommend this spot for sure.
I've been coming here for almost 15 years and the service and taste have not changed.. Bomb Food highly Recommend. #LowriderLifestyle

Omg this place is so good the food is so fresh and delicious The staff is super kind and nice. Happy bowl express is the best. So good.
I stopped by Happy Bowl Express on a whim, and I’m so glad I did. From the moment I walked in, the staff made me feel welcome, and the place had a great vibe. The food? Next level. Every dish I tried was packed with flavor and cooked to perfection. You can tell the management really cares about the customer experience and takes pride in what they serve. It’s rare to find a spot that hits on both quality and service like this. I’ll definitely be coming back!
These workers are kind excellent with customers service!!!❤️❤️ I had ordered shrimp to go in a little box and I totally forgot, after I had my food and purchased already, I went to cvs with my brother to buy a drink. The worker heard we went to cvs and brought me my shrimp across the street from the happy bowl restaurant!!! I was so shocked!!! That was very wonderful and kind of happy bowl!
the food is sooo yummy and the workers are so sweet, great food AND customer service.. I’ll definitely be back
Easily my favorite Chinese food in the area. I go a few times a month and every time I've had excellent service from really friendly people working. They take excellent care of me, helping me get exactly what I want. The fried rice here is so good, and the beef with broccoli, wish I could buy that sauce YUM! they have really good made to order soups too. I love the noodle soup, all the soups have been good though! Friendly staff, delicious food!

The team very kind and helpful to by honest the food I have several comments on the food, please take them into consideration because I liked the warm welcome. The colors of the food look completely unnatural. The chicken and shrimp are full of dough. The noodles are like you are eating dough and their color is strange. And the fried rice 😫 The last cookie with the meal smelled so bad. For sure I will comeback again and I am sure will be perfect

This place is super similar to Panda Express but a little more expensive. Thé orange and teriyaki chicken are meh/not that great. The king pao chicken is also meh but the sweet and sour chicken is good. They are good portions so that’s good.
Small portions doesn’t match price. Food was okay but o certainly won’t back. Don’t waste your money
The person in there is nice and good portion of food and not expensive. I like the napkin. Huge downside, no water provided, and except BBQ pork is pretty decent good, rice noodle and chicken tastes very bad. Like person who don’t know how to cook cooked it. Watery super salty, and no favor.

Less than impressed. Their set up is similar to a mall food court spot. I wasn't loving the look of the stuff out on the steamer trays so I ordered some of their "made to order" entrees for 9.99. Which is consists of a meat and white rice. I ordered the Mongolian beef which was basically two whole sliced onions with a little bit of beef (see picture). Fried rice isnt a side, it's a "made to order" option which also comes with...more rice as a side. The chop suey is just vegetables and it just tastes like boiled cabbage. Their egg drop soup is a hefty portion but it costs $7. It's really just not worth the money.
Not impressed. The cook need more training in how to cook better food and not use mystery meat. I should've went to Topper's Pizza that was nearby. What a waste of good money. 🤢👎

I am absolutely appalled by the level of service from Happy Bowl Express in Camarillo, CA. I placed an order for delivery, paid in full, and waited patiently for my food to arrive. Not only did the food never show up, but every attempt to contact the restaurant was met with a busy signal. It's beyond frustrating that they refuse to answer the phone or address this issue in any way. I understand that mistakes happen, but this level of disregard for customers is inexcusable. I have essentially been robbed - they took my money and provided nothing in return. I demand a full refund immediately. This experience has left me questioning how a business like this is still operating. If they don't rectify this situation soon, I will escalate this matter further. Avoid Happy Bowl Express at all costs. They clearly do not value their customers and have no respect for the basic principles of business ethics. Unbelievable!
I am so disappointed on the service here, my orange chicken was super dry and disgusting it tasted like it was sitting somewhere without any sauce for hours, and my chow mein tasted the same way, I'm sorry I've been going here for a year or two but you just lost a costumer especially because of how small portions you give me, and especially the prices are incredibly insane. I should've gone back and asked for a refund that's how bad it was, but I was already home so disappointed.
Food here wasn't good. It was sitting out with a film on top. Luckily they made some fresh orange chicken. The Chow mein was fresh and good, but everything else was a disaster and super expensive. It was $27 for 2 plates. Panda express is $20. The pork egg rolls for $1 were a hit. I'm surprised we didn't get food poisoning
Happy bowl is NOT what it was at ALL . Good had NO taste and super greasy. I DO NOT recommend this place at all. 👎 the selection was extremely poor.
