Six Happiness

I have been there many times and this is the first time that i was disrespected at that place. One of the delivery guys was watching me like I was gonna do something the whole time and I did not appreciate it all. SMH.

the food tastes like it’s been sitting out for a couple days and is also SO bland. i didn’t think you can mess up chinese food so much. makes me wonder how they are still in business.

My go-to Chinese takeout spot! I usually order the lunch specials which are a great value and a good amount of food - usually feeds me for two meals. I like their beef with broccoli, their egg drop wonton soup is also delicious on a hot day. Every time I’ve ordered my food is ready on time and order accurate - they do run a good operation.
Only concern is sometimes there is a ton of oil in the food, wish they didn’t have to use so much.

Worst vegetable dumplings, by far, I have ever had. Wrong in every way possible. Mushy, tasteless, all stuck together and ripped open the moment you try to separate them or pick one up. Plus they have two small tables and chairs but don’t try to eat at them. If you do, they’ll kick you out unless you work there in which case you’re welcome to eat there. Apparently take out only but that’s not posted. But all that’s irrelevant since the food isn’t worth eating, no less paying for.

I ordered food from Six Happiness to eat on my meal break recently because they are cheap and quick, not necessarily good in any other way. Listen people, the experience did not even meet my low expectations.

The phone person was efficient, the deliveryman was indeed quick (20 minutes), but also a discourteous nuisance. He drove his bike to the front doorway of my building, blocking the door (while not dismounting his bike). I had to ask him to please move his bike out of the doorway, so that people could pass through while I retrieved his payment. I gave him cash including 23% tip and thanked him. He did not respond.

Upon receiving the bag of food, it seemed quite light. I thought to myself, at least I'll be able to finish it in the 30 minutes I am allotted (more on that later).

I opened the container of Double Sauteed Pork and these were my observations; all ingredients were cut randomly (no uniformity to the size and shape of the vegetable cuts and meat shreds); miniscule portion (I estimated 1 ounce of pork, in tiny shreds of non-uniform size); vegetables consisted of a small amount of cabbage sliced into various shapes and sizes, one small trapezoidal cut piece of green pepper, one small piece of red pepper cut similarly, and I believe I counted three small shreds of mushrooms each less than 1 inch long. It looked so carelessly prepared, all I could do was laugh at myself for my making such a bad choice.

I can't complain about the flavor of the food or the experience of eating it because I expected mediocre and unseasoned food, which it definitely was. I was finished eating in 15 minutes so I had ample time left to clean up. There was also certainly no issue of feeling overfull, because I didn't feel that I had eaten anything.

Could the Six Happiness experience get worse? Indeed it could, and did. About 2.5 hours later, another delivery from them came to the building. Again the delivery man (different person from the first delivery, but similarly rude) drove his bike directly in front of the door, without dismounting and I had to ask him to please move out of the tenants' way. He didn't move so I had to ask him again, more urgently. The delivery man said "FOR YOU!!!". I told him no, the food was not for me. The food receipt had no customer name or apartment number, just a cellphone number. I told the delivery man that I didn't know who the delivery was for so I would call the cell number on the receipt. I went inside and as I was calling, he yelled at me "YOU HAVE TO PAY!!!". After finishing the call I returned the receipt to the man and told him again that I WAS NOT the customer, the customer would be coming down to the lobby to pay and collect the food. I didn't know how much of what I said, he understood, but that's life in the big city...I had done my my best to help this impolite man. I went back inside the building. Through the door he yelled "COMING DOWN!!!". I nodded yes sadly as I imagined another mediocre meal about to begin.

This is a really bad attempt at Chinese take out. The general Tso’s chicken had zero sauce and was made from dried out old chicken that was terribly prepared. I had to throw the food out as it was inedible. The hot and sour soup was marginal at best and the vegetables were soggy. The noodle “soup” was just salted water they used to cook the noodles. The restaurant also forgot my egg roll. Terrible experience, I will never be eating there again.

What can only be described as average at best, the pork dumplings were the best part of my order. The dumpling sauce has WAY too much vinegar while the egg roll was incredibly dry and clearly made using frozen dough. The garlic chicken resembled a pair of rubber shoes I once owned and had very little garlic taste as it was over powered by the oil they use. The “fried rice” reminded me of a great egg explosion (despite asking to not have egg in the dish) that happened in my kitchen when I was a little boy. I would rather eat at a mall-based “Chinese” restaurant like Panda Express then ever put my stomach, or palate, through this experience again.
