Editor’s Note
Last updated 3 Aug 2026
Our take: Happy Joy Restaurant, located within Hotel Royal, appears to be a consistent option for Chinese cuisine, particularly for larger groups or those seeking a quieter dining experience away from typical weekend crowds.
While the Google rating of 3.6/5 might suggest otherwise, several reviews highlight surprisingly good food, with specific mentions of the Peking Duck ($35 for half), Scallop with Egg White ($24 small), and Coffee Ribs.
We note that the ambiance is described as classic, perhaps a bit dated, but well-maintained and conducive to conversation due to its often uncrowded nature, especially on weekdays or Sunday evenings.
Service is generally praised, likely benefiting from the lower foot traffic.
We'd recommend Happy Joy for those looking for a reliable, unhurried Chinese meal, particularly if you appreciate dishes like their 'dry type' sweet and sour pork or fragrant coffee ribs.
It's a solid choice for family dinners or company events where a peaceful setting is preferred over a bustling atmosphere.
Expect to pay around $40-50 per person, though promotions like the $50 Crab Beehoon can offer better value for groups.
Best for groups of 4-6 seeking a quiet meal.
