Stumbled across this place on a hungover Sunday afternoon. I’m not local so I didn’t know where to eat. But my god was it a good choice. Hands down the best Chinese I’ve ever eaten. Once I walked in and was offered a Chinese or English menu and the place full of Asian families enjoying Sunday dinner
I am looking for "authentic" Cantonese style food in Newcastle. The 1 other "recommended" restaurant inside Chinatown was booked for a wedding. A local Chinese told me to visit this restaurant a short walk from Chinatown.
I ordered exclusively 3 seafood dishes: scallops, Rock crab, and shrimps.
The Happiness Inn is always a lovely place to go for a Chinese meal. Fair prices with a ton of options to choose from.
Staff are helpful and food is really good (there's a reason I keep returning). You can call in advance or turn up and they will happily seat you if there is space (most of the time
Authentic and delicious Chinese cuisines …
Probably the best roasted duck 🦆 you could ever get in North East …
Service is reasonably good in non-peak hours …
Next time will be trying dim-sum menu …
Highly recommended!!!

A friend from Hong Kong decided to bring me to his FAVOURITE restaurant. According to him, some of the 'Dim Sum' dishes here were better than the ones served in Hong Kong.

Superb dim sum, very reasonable prices and friendly service! Probably not hidden to those in the know, but nestled next to Mark Tony's, two flights up and you're among the smells and sounds of Hong Kong 😍
Don't hesitate, get up those stairs and order a few plates of heaven 👍👍
Food was good, and the portion sizes where massive too much for us to eat sadly but when asked for the dim sum menu, we were informed they are no longer doing dim sum so I think this needs to be removed, from their website as it was the reason we wanted to eat there.
Very nice lunchtime menu, £11.50 for three courses. Staff also very nice and friendly. They take cards, but not until you leave there's a sign that they only take card payment per £15 a head otherwise it's cash only. Luckily they took our card on this occassion but was asked for cash if we had it. W
Nice authentic dim sum. We can see the chef making the cheung fun. Big portions and friendly staffs. We had a great lunch!
Excellent authentic Chinese Cuisine.
Excellent Staff..
Speaks volumes when you see home many Chinese eat at this restaurant.
I highly recommend you visit this restaurant
My friend took me here, loved the fish, the chicken was a tiny bit too sweet. Otherwise, very nice.
