The only star missing was to highlight how surprised I was that this place wasn't full when we went for dinner.... The menu is great for all ages and the flavours were intense. Friendly staff and very clean, simple interior to enjoy amazing food. Cheap fresh large meals and very polite staff.

Forever the local chat has recommended Happy Chopstix and I’ve been like yeeeeah ok. I finally went. Such lovely food! Amazing service! You won’t be disappointed. The space has options to sit and eat in the restaurant. There is a nice authentic feel as it has traditional music playing while you indulge in your choice of meal! I like how there is reasonable amount of options food wise opposed to a large menu. Options for vegetarian, meat options and spice levels! The space is wheelchair friendly and accessible. There is a disabled parking space directly outside. I highly recommend giving it a go. Full of flavour and hot food which is so good on a cool night! Service is amazing. The atmosphere is so cool. Highly, highly recommend visiting and eating in or taking away. If you take away a box is supplied to make taking away easy! So lucky to have such a wholesome great food so close to home. Thank you Happy Chopstix! Now I don’t have to go to Northbridge to get a good Vietnamese feed!

One of the best Pho Tai I have had in Perth, and very reasonably priced. If I lived closer I would come here weekly. The lady who served me was friendly and efficient. They didn't have tendon advertised (gan) on the menu, but when I asked if they, did she checked with the kitchen and was able to add it. The atmosphere was quite typical of you would expect for a vietnamese restaurant. It's clean. They had vietnamese music in the background which added to the Atmosphere. Overall I'm very impressed and would definitely come back.

This place is wonderful. The food was absolutely delicious, and the store is accessible. The parking lot is 5m away from the front of the store. The service is good, but sometimes it takes a while to be served because the cashier also works in the kitchen, but this is fine. The only thing I would mention, is that it can get pretty cold inside if you aren’t having a hot meal, so bring a jacket if you get cold easily. There are also some smaller tables outside which can be nice in summer. I don’t think there is a toilet inside, but I could be wrong. They also serve great portions, so you get what you paid for. Thanks,
