Great local spot! we ordered a couple things and they were able to vegan-ize them both! Highly recommend the tom kha soup with soft tofu and the yellow curry with fried tofu over rice - delicious!!

We were traveling back from Catalina Island and found ourselves in Long Beach for the night. There were so many Thai options, but Happy Thai was near our hotel. We thought we would give it a try - wow, what a great idea! After the food desert of Avalon, this place was hitting right. First off, the ambiance inside and out is nothing to get excited about. It's a small, older restaurant on a busy street. Don't be discouraged, the food is where it's at. We are a family of four vegetarians. We had yellow curry vegan, pad see yew vegan, and kung pao vegan. Unbelievable. Seriously, unbelievable. If we lived here in town, I'd eat here weekly. Service was great.

So my wife recommended this restaurant for dinner since she said she has been coming to for over 20 years. I'm not a fan of Thai food but took her word for it and was glad I did. The restaurant is a nice hole in the wall with a nice atmosphere. For drinks my wife got the Thai iced tea and I got the raspberry iced tea which was super fresh and had raspberries inside. The Thai iced tea was just the right amount of sweet compared to other Thai iced teas I've tasted. We got the coconut soup along with the beef salad and fried rice. It was A bit pricey but well worth it

Solid Thai. I actually ordered from the wrong restaurant & was not disappointed. Honestly, in my opinion, most local Thai spots taste the same. I know I'm totally wrong but that's how I feel. Can't really go wrong. I'd order again. My only complaint is Thai chicken... or the type of chicken most of these spots use. It's always DRY AF & somewhat chewy. They need to start using thigh or some other dark meat because that ain't it! Other than that... the seasoning & spices be on deck!!
