Hands down the best Thai I’ve had in 20 years! Plan to make this a frequent spot. I highly recommend the steamed dumplings, coconut shrimp soup, pineapple fried rice and the mango sticky rice. Oh how I love mango sticky rice! Oh and the Thai tea was delicious and a good portion. Some places give too small of a cup. Not at Happy Thai. Just the right amount. Can’t wait to come back.
Have only had the cashew chicken but it was fantastic. Great taste and generous portion. Definitely recommend!
Been coming here for many years. This is their new location and name they used to be Khun Dum (seriously!). Their food is amazing. I usually get vegetable panang curry and it's pretty much the best panang curry I've ever had! Another item that is a must have is the jerky beef... so so good nice and chewy with a spicy sauce on the side... yum yum. Service is wonderful too. This time, my co-workers got the chopsuy, the cashew chicken and the orange chicken... all of which are more Chinese than Thai and I would discourage you to order. If you go to a Thai restaurant, order Thai food right? Specially when it's this good!
Togo order. Great service, I was greeted right away. Took a bit longer to order then was asked if I had any questions. (Awesome) I placed my order. Food took sometime to prepare. Wish since I was waiting I could have received a side salad or my Thai tea while waiting but “baby!” When I say it was worth the wait it was!!!!
I ordered veggie egg rolls
Tom Ka shrimp soup
They gave me fixin’s which is super rare.

Well place and stay for mind Relaxation and health wise nice
Happy Thai makes me happy.
While I haven't had the opportunity to dine in (yet), l've been able to order for pickup on several occasions.
Every time I call in, I get a friendly voice on the other side of the phone. They take my order, give me an estimated time for pick up and I'm there.
Their time estimates are on point as my order's usually ready by the time l arrive but on the very few times it's not; it's usually ready in no more than a couple of minutes.
Everything I've had is tasty but typically I alternate between the Pad Thai and the Pad See Ew depending on my mood. Sometimes I’m feeling a little wild and I get both. Thai food makes for some of the best leftovers so no regrets. Everything is cooked to perfection and as expected with Thai food, very flavorful.
They even have desert if you have a sweet tooth, it's hard to go wrong with their mango sticky rice... that is unless you don't like mango, rice or sticky things.
The staff is friendly, the prices and portions are great and best of all, the food is delicious!
If you're in the area and are looking for some good Thai food, Happy Thai is an excellent choice.
I love the food.
Authentic food, delicious, and flavorful. Tried the panang curry with white rice, shrimp chow mein. Everything was good! Must come back!
Great place! The food is good!
Funny people.. very kind.. and very good food. You will love it.. and the Lady that serves the food too..
The portions were really small and really expensive for the size but the fried rice was good and a pretty good price
Small cozy place, the food is great.
Hold on to your wallet, I ordered the small portions and was given the large order. The food was very good, I probably will not return due to communication errors.
😍😍

Esta sabrosa la comida nomas el caldo de mariscos lo dan a 20 dolares y es pura agua tiene 3 camarones 2 pedasitos de pescado y unas tiritas de calamar bien chikititas
Great food. A bit pricey. Quick service. But there was a lot of dirty tables. A bit unnerving in these. Covid times..
Happy happy happy. Excellent service. The combination fried rice was tasty. Server was very helpful.
Good food.
La comida está rica
This place is called Happy Thai Food for a reason, I wasn't excited to leave the bomb food behind 🤘
Buena comida
I really expected the Pad Thai noodles to be soft but instead they were very tough and chewy !!!!! I could not even finish the dish
Best authentic thai in Long Beach check'em out when you slide thru the city
Food is actually pretty good but they don’t answer their phones so don’t expect to be able to do an order to go or for pickup. Only thing is they do supply ice teas while waiting. Would have given 5 stars if it was cleanly and easy to order but the lack of customer service for their phones brings it down a star.
A pesar del lugar la comida thai en este lugar, muchísimas felicidades todo es fresco y muy rica la comida. Si quisiera hasta le doy 100 estrellas
Bomb food! Hubby and I love going and this was the first time in awhile to order and then went to the park to eat. So delicious as always!
I love this place
Fabulous tigger beef salad
Love this place the owners are awesome and they just installed a new 400 square foot deck for outdoor dining
I love this place. The owners are always so nice and friendly and are really good at satisfying the customers needs. The spicy 7 seas soup is delicious as well as their chow mein. We even catered this place for a graduation and they met all our needs. Good food with good prices
Food is very delicious, I've been around them for years and there service is the best. I defenetly recomend happy thai👍😋👍😋
Very good love basil fried rice yellow curry excellent coconut soup could be a bit Spicer that was my only complaint
Best Thai food in Town.
The food was barely warm and found a hair long one when told the server she said it was mine I am bald ol
Quiet, DELICIOUS, plasticware and great safety protocol!!!
We saw the pictures from the reviews, and how good rating it had. This was before covid 19 started, we were seated at the back table where the ceiling was falling and water from the pipes were leaking into the table. We have children, and health is priority. If they don’t have attention to their property What about the food?
Fantastic service, Marissa our server was the sweetest! She was super attentive and has the best attitude. The food was amazing! The flavors are so intense and unique. Each dish I ordered was perfectly prepared and a great portion for two. The atmosphere was very cozy and warm. I will definitely be coming back for more soon!
Great food and service
I canNOT recommend this place enough. We had it once, and, to be perfectly honest, we haven’t been able to, in good conscious, go to any other Thai restaurant.
The food there is something special. The atmosphere is warm, the staff are friendly and attentive, and handled our screaming children with grace and humor.
I LOVE this place.
I dont rate places often but this place is super good. Cheap prices, large portions, and really good food!
Happy Thai is honestly the best Thai restaurant in Long Beach. I would 100% recommend! The food taste amazing and the portions are very generous. The service is absolutely incredible and Marissa is an angel (so amazing, I love you). EVERYBODY SHOULD COME HERE!!!! The location isn't the greatest, but this place is an amazing gem. Hurry up and go!!!!

Good and cheap thai food
I’ve been coming to this Thai restaurant since I was a kid and now I bring my own children. Originally they were located on pacific & 20th but moved here a few years ago. It is my go to Thai place, i moved to Riverside 2 years ago and still make the trip here, my favorite is the combination chow mein and their shrimp and mushroom soup spicy with fresh chilis (Tom yum goong) the fried rice is also delicious both regular and spicy.. and you can never go wrong with their Thai tea, it is the best rich and creamy!
Loved it
Service with a great smile. I'll be back the next time that I visit Long Beach!
The best part of this was the soup best soup I've ever tasted.
this restaurant is fantastic and the costumer survives is great everyone working there is friendly. I will be coming again. Food is also delicious and the size portions are good as well.

Their not happy
อร่อยครับ.
Agree with Alex G., the food is passable, but that's it. Biked to Elephant Thai, but it was closed and was so hungry I thought I'd give this place a shot. Looks like a worn out location, old, and in need of cleaning and restoration. I was the only patron, but service was still pretty lackluster - soup came out with entree's and my waitress kept disappearing for extended periods of time, then somehow managed not to notice me turning around, flagging, waving. The food... meh. The Coconut Soup was two basic flavors with rubbery chicken, the Yellow Curry was a weird, bright, yellow and very watery and the rice was mostly sliced jalapeno and a few onions and basil here and there. No chance I'm going back here.
The food is passable at best once you've had good thai food you can really see how nasty other thai food is.
I drove 2 miles to get here. It was closed it says is going to be closed on Wednesday
Great place to eat
Have been coming here since they opened. Good food. Nice servers. Average prices. Coconut chicken soup is my favorite. I hope people come and savor their exotic fare just once. It's worth it!
I love this place
Very good food. Coconut soup is delicious. Go for it!
👍👍👍
Friendly staff and great food. The soups and curries are awesome along with everything else.
Very good customer service very good food as well!!
Love coming here the food is amazing
The food was great
happy thai food is just amazing, it is delicious, me and my family love coming here. The service is great as well.
The quality has declined substantially since they moved from their old place. What a shame I understand the original owners were Top first class chefs in Thailand

Delicious food
Although the food was just moderate okay, the staff was very friendly, efficient and attentive. They did try to do what they could but the cashew nut chicken have to cashew nuts on it. When they say it's sprinkled with cashew nuts I guess too makes it plural but not very meaningful considering the price of the dish.
