I was in town for 3 days and enjoyed the service and pad thai so much that I went back for a second meal. It's take out only, and the owner was a real character. I'll definitely be back next time im in Penticton.

Was amazed by the high rate of this Thai restaurant AND.... they are outstanding!! Wish I could give them more star. We ordered: 1) Pad Thai w/ traditional sauce — the best tamarind sauce I have ever had. 2) Tom Yum soup — really Yummy!! I don’t know if this is North East style 3) Thai Milk Tea — such a good price for a big amount, highly recommend. Service is friendly. When the owner lady turned on a Thai song, it reminded me about a peaceful countryside in Thailand. Anyway, it’s nice to have a good Thai restaurant here. We will definitely come back for another try when being back to Penticton.

My hubby and I picked up dinner for the first time from happiness Thai and good lord, the food is phenomenal!! We ordered the tamarind pad Thai and the drunken noodle bowl and both are unbelievably good. Also the portion sizes are MASSIVE!! Easily sharable between two, or keep as leftovers!

Cute place for takeout Thai. Hits the spot when looking for a little spiciness in your takeout but also mild enough for those who don't want that too. Good portion size. I like that the curry includes rice. There have been times where I've ordered takeout from other places and have forgotten to add that on the order.

I'll be honest, before I went to Thailand I didn't even love pad Thai, and I have never found one since that I love anywhere else. Well wow. Their Pad Thai is absolutely phenomenal! The portions and absolutely massive, the prices are super fair, and the food is sooooo flavorful! We just tried this place a couple weeks ago and have already ordered 3 times

Our first food stop in Penticton from Vancouver as we just wanted something quick after a long road trip. We were so pleasantly surprised by how kind and sweet the lady up front was. The food was simple but delicious - exactly what we were looking for. Their Tom Yum is probably one of the best I’ve ever had. We got the lunch special sizes which we were told is smaller than their regular size but the portions were still very generous! We could tell immediately they value their regulars as the lady up front recognized and remembered the orders of a few different customers. I would definitely come here again if I visit Penticton again :)
