About Happy Harbor (Rowland Height, CA)

Happy Harbor, named one of the Overall Excellence Top 100 Chinese Restaurants by Chinese Restaurant News, is considered a hip dining spot even among the plentiful fine options for Chinese gourmet in the great Los Angeles metro area.

Happy Harbor serves up a "New Style" (or Nuevo) menu of Dim Sum that have sometimes influenced other local Chinese eateries to follow their steps. The restaurant employs ten chefs exclusively for this location. The food was great. Each dish is so tasty in a way allowing the natural tastes of the dishes to come out instead of having sauce overbear the natural flavors. The food was very tasty and elegantly presented.
