Happy Rice in Edinburgh, City of

One of the best chinese takeaways, the staff are so incredibly friendly and the food is so delicious! I wouldn't order from anywhere else!!

It was ready within 15 minutes of ordering and it was delicious!! I hadn't had Chinese food in years because it's always tricky finding the vegan options, but the listed allergens and ingredients were so helpful. Can't wait to try more dishes!

Food hot and fresh, better than estimated delivery time.

lovely food and a delightful delivery, the woman was so friendly and gave me a money off voucher

Everything wasn’t even warm can I have a refund please I paid 30 pound for a nice meal and got given garbage

Delicious prawn with vegetables, plenty of king prawns. The spare ribs were mouthwatering. Excellent as usual.

Food was freezing late and terrible

It was a great experience, arrived on time and the meal was delicious. Thanks Happy Rice

Well very disappointed, obviously old chips thrown in the fryer supposed to be salt n chili . One sliced piece of onion and one slice of chili in bottom of bag . Worst ever . Poor poor . Would def avoid . Rest of meal nothing outstanding quite a lot of fat on meat . Not freshly made at all .

Since moving to Edinburgh, I found it hard to trust a good Chinese place. But finally, thanks to my work, I got to know Happy Rice. I had a delivery today, and while it’s early to review since I only had one delivery, I just wanna say that I really appreciated their service. The lady who delivered the food to me was nice and friendly. She really recommended food that I needed to try next time and gave me an in-house voucher. I really appreciated the effort they put their soul into the business. It’s great to see. I hope I will get the same experience next time.

Delicious ,fresh ,hot .Delivered with a Happy Rice smile every time

All the dishes I ordered were tasty and still hot. No complaints at all, the freebies they threw in were very welcome. Thanks!

PROS: One of the best Chinese takeaways I have had since, moving up from England. The deals make it really worth while, when it comes to deciding to order - This local Chinese is Good value for money and comparatively priced a starter, main, side and drink for just £11.50 with 10% discount with an order £15+. Extra springs rolls was a nice add on and touch got 12 instead of 8. The meat in both myself and my partners duck and chicken curries was a lot and this is something the competition tends to lack in the area - the lack of meat. The member of staff on the phone was really polite and apologetic and kept us accurately updated on ETA on delivery. CONS: Delivery took far too long just a little over 2hrs, understandable that it’s a Friday night but I’m a 10 minute drive away, after rush hour. Food could’ve been warmer it was lukewarm and close to cold. Chips could’ve been done better as they were on the dry side and the soup my partner ordered for her starter was way too fatty. I would’ve given higher if it wasn’t for the delivery (mainly).

Didn’t deliver the food. Didn’t refund for the non delivery. Order from here a lot and they are usually great with great food. Disappointed.

Lovely food! Really good salt and pepper fries and the curry was super tasty! Definitely will be back. Thanks!

their salt & chilli chips are so good! we ordered satay chicken and they gave us chicken in a soy sauce. Really long wait time but they gave us a £5 off when you spend £25 next time to apologise, which we appreciated!

even with my order being late, I'd recommend this restaurant. They called me to let me know about the delay and the delivery lady was very nice. Thank you

Very generous portions and good friendly service! Will use again 👍

Ordered 90 minutes ago, still not here. Called restaurant and was told it hasn't left yet and will be another 15-20 minutes because of more orders having arrived. Fulfil the ones you already have before taking more.

I ordered food quite urgently from here for 5 people,it was ready within half an hour. Amazing veg and prawn Singapore noodles! I would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting this area!! The man working the counter is also very friendly. It's cash only unless you order online but aside from that minor inconvenience, it's great!

Lemon Chicken & fried rice was delicious. Bonus that it was delivered early. Friendly, polite delivery driver.

Chicken balls were terrible also never put curry sauce in with my chicken balls so had no sauce to dip them in.

Honey chili sauce is disgusting tonight - inedible and has now ruined my meal. really disappointed as this is not my usual experience

Ordered at 6:30pm. After 2 hours phoned to be told it’s out for delivery “been very busy”. Was out for delivery for 40 minutes. Food was soggy and drinks were hot. Taste of food was good just a shame it had been sitting ages.

I have not received any of my order despite the app saying 'enjoy your food' as thought it has been delivered.

I feel bad writing this was the delivery lady was so friendly and lovely. The food was awful. The soup was a thick jelly like consistency, not like a soup at all. The chips were hard and chewy like they had been reheated and the chicken in the curry was like rubber. Not good at all and ended up in the bin.

We've enjoyed several takeaways from Happy Rice now - we keep coming back because of the happiness we get from the wide selection of dishes on the menu. There is a big veggie selection, and we always enjoy the sweet buns. The price is great as well.

Thai curry was spiced with sweet chili sauce, duck spring rolls were soggy and the spare ribs were over cooked.

Quick delivery of nicest Chinese meal, cheery lady delivered!

lovely delivery lady but the food wasn't good

Wow best one yet! I thoroughly enjoyed my meal!!

Food was shocking. How do you manage to over cook rice and then think it's acceptable to send it to someone. Also the oil at the bottom of the noodle container was boggin and totally off-putting. Honestly the only thing enjoyable out of the whole order was the praw crackers. The food would've been better if it was cooked properly and had proper seasonings added to it.

Great service and food without MSG, super Chinese takeaway

Delivery driver was lovely and gave a voucher for next order and food was incredible!

We have a saying in our house: happy rice, happy life.

Probably the best Chinese we’ve had in a while, the woman delivering our order was the sweetest wee woman. Thank you for being so lovely!

Do you want the worst Chinese takeaway in Edinburgh? Look no further! We made the mistake of ordering from Happy Rice via Juat Eat as our usual place was closed. Ordered at 7.30pm and the app said to expect delivery between 8.45pm - 9.05pm. A bit of a wait for somewhere less than half a mile away on Tuesday night but ok. 9.05 rolls around and it comes up as delivered on the Just Eat app but no sign. Give it another 5 minutes but still nothing so I call up the restaurant (it's been an hour and 40 minutes after ordering at this point). I got told very abruptly that the kitchen was very busy as they had lots of orders so it would be another 25 minutes thanks for waiting, goodbye and they hung-up. Food finally arrived 2 hours after ordering (credit to them, it was only the 25 minutes late that they said it would be). The delivery driver was extremely nice and apologetic for the delay and gave us a 2nd free bag of prawn crackers and money off voucher as way of apology. Unfortunately the £5 off voucher runs out at the end of the month and is only valid on orders over £25. We hoped the food might make up for it and be worth the wait but unfortunately not. Cold, bland and greasy is the only way to describe it. Unless you like disappointment, late delivery, rude staff and bad food then I recommend you avoid Happy Rice.

Freshly made, hot, delicious, and service with a smile. Seem like a great choice for eating out and takeaway. will be ordering again. 😀

This is our fav Chinese takeaway for years. The staff are nice, the food is great. My personal recommendation : fried rice, kung po chicken, salt and pepper chicken, vegetables spring rolls, prawn crackers. Hope this is useful

Very friendly delivery person great looking delicious food

Amazing food. Highly recommend and mock duck noodles and any of the flavoured chips! Would order again!

Nice and friendly staff, hot and tasty food. Perfect for a takeaway

Food was absolutely delicious and service was brilliant. Will definitely be ordering again soon!

They are just down the road from me and I always enjoy their food and their delivery people are very friendly.

waited nearly 2 hours for this order!!

The lady who delivered the food was lovely. The food was very nice thank you very much :)

over one hour late with no explanation

My curry was missing not happy.

I've ordered from Happy Rice for a long time because of their range of vegan options, but this will be the last time. I know them to be slow with delivery, but the food arrived over 4 hours after we ordered it. This was 2.5 hours after the latest delivery estimate. Despite phoning the restaurant several times, I never got an accurate delivery estimate from them and they weren't apologetic.

Absolutely nasty and came in three hours too late. At least we had a good laugh about how bad it was

Absolutely horrible. I have never ordered something that bad. It was purely disgusting. The delivery took over 3 hours! And the food was AWFUL.

The worst food I have ever ordered

Sauce on the main meals was really flavourless, like ingredients were missing. The lemon chicken did not taste sweet or lemony at all and was really quite unpleasant. The delivery time was good and the food was hot and fresh but really the sauces were all just salted gloop.

Absolutely brilliant! Food was hot and tasty. Great options for vegetarians. We very much appreciated the complimentary items and bottle of juice. Will order again!

Food was inedible. Everything was just oil. Soup was like sweetcorn with the water poured out the tin. Zero chicken or flavour. Main courses were not much better. The only thing I was able to eat was the free spring rolls

Shame. I was excited to try this place - its a 15 minute walk from my flat but i had Covid - took almost 1.5 hours after ordering, the driver went to the wrong address, the fried rice just tasted of 'burnt' and my mixed seafood had chicken in it - scary when they offer 'vegan'. They deep fried 3 mussels in the shell so there was not much else in it! Sad - i wouldn't recommend.

We ordered on Xmas day , despite the very busy ordering we got it delivered by a fantastic lady dressed as Santa , super polite and we got a nice surprise, thank you and we will definitely order again 👍🏼😋

I I didn't receive it on Christmas Day quote to six it said it arrived but no one answering the the buzzer or my front door this is getting beyond a joke we'll just eat 😠

amazing absolutely amazing, food excellent customer service is the best ever, will be coming back thank you

food wasn't as good as usual, and it took almost 3 hours from ordering to actually get the food. a shame as this is our usual go to for chinese food

Great food and very friendly staff

Superb food, nice and friendly. One of the best in Edinburgh!

Food was late but think this was a Just Eat issue,

The mock meat (chicken and duck) options were terrible. No flavour at all

Food was bland but collection was early

Driver failed to contact my phone and ended up just leaving the food in the reception which I found 10 minutes later. Food was of a good quality overall except prawn crackers which were soft and chips that were a bit soggy.

Delivery hasn't arrived so can't rate food

I could have eaten that again, immediately. That was really nice! The skin on the duck was crunchy, the perfect sliver of fat: maybe I should have got the large rice instead of regular - I think that would have extended my enjoyment!

Spring rolls hollow and chewy special curry had grizzle and watery very disappointed thought I had found a gem

Food took forever to come. It was really salty and fatty ribs. Tasteless noodles and greasy overall. Wouldn’t re order 😢

Happy Rice is sublime! I love everything 🤩 The freebies including prawn crackers, spring rolls and irn bru are an added plus!

Always good food great flavours and good prices my favourite Chinese takeaway

I just got a beef curry and the beef tasted like it was going off I had to just eat chips for my dinner it was disgusting never again

They are excellent! Amazing food and good value.

I ordered a vegetarian dish, when I got home & had eaten a bit I found a prawn which means I'd been eating meat! I phoned them, he apologised & said he'll replace, said I should have said vegetarian. I did. At least twice because I've been a veggie for 20+ years & know this can happen. I went all the way back to pick up my replacement dish & he said I needed to bring back the other dish? When he didn't tell me that on the phone? I'm the one that's inconvenienced & had to eat meat & go back out! Yet they act like I was out of order? Honestly, screw this place. Should have said on the phone to bring back the dish.

Best sweet and sour chicken in town! Came really fast too! My favourite!

This is the worst food I've ever had, did you make the soup with the dish water did you send me last nights chicken balls because they are disgusting wont be back

FINALLY WE FOUND OUR GO TO CHINESE! The bean curd with satay sauce and the mock duck in bean curd sauce were exceptional! The side dishes like seaweed with cashews, plain noodles, satay sauce and even the rice were super delicious! To top it all off the wee lady who delivered the food was the cutest person that have ever delivered me food EVER! She treated us with free juice and free spring rolls which to I was very grateful for. Over all 10/10 for food, time and service! Thank you Happy Rice 🙏🏼

Lovely food, delivered by a very friendly happy lady 😀

Food is good, but ridiculously late with our collection. Over 20 mins. Not the first time this has happened as delivery has also been over 20 mins in the past.

Very delicious. New favourite place.

Fantastic food and lovely service. My favourite chinese takeaway

Excellent food and delivery driver was so friendly and cheerful. Will order again definately.

Absolutetly Superb - Hot, Fresh & Yummy.

lovely food, especially the stuffed duck. delivery man was a delight and a big thank you for the free juice and spring rolls .

Ordered 35 minutes before kitchen closed, thought it would be enough time. Apologies to the kitchen. Food was decent, I like the fact there's mock meats. The sweet and sour would be better if it was battered, just my opinion though.

Have ordered 2 times already, recently salt and paper chicken and it was delicious. Not too sure why the reviews are so poor. Give it a try

First time ordered here. I honestly say that the chicken looked very old and looked like a sponge. I think this type of food is not to my taste. a friend recommended me to try your restaurant's food. the lady who delivered was very, very nice, the food was hot and delivered on time. I honestly don't know if I will come back to order. Really i want to be honest all the time

First time ordering will definitely be back really nice 👌🏼

Arrived 30.mins earlier than app predicted which was a great start. Unfortunately the seafood mix was a wee bit lacking in seafood (only 5 Prawns & 4 Mussels!). Rice & noodles were a little greasy but overall was tasty.

Food was rotten waste of money!

Not great quality but portions where big.

Lady who delivered order was very nice!!

I was expecting to get rice with the order of curry, but all was still fairly filling and delicious.

Ordered seuchan pork tasted of bleach revolting

It’s terrible the sauces don’t taste nice at all the meat doesn’t taste great, bbq in spare ribs don’t taste right. Chicken wings well I hope they are chicken because it tastes off and the chicken soup I have never seen anything soo dark yellow

Got all the wrong stuff and missing my drink after wateing so long it wasn't good 100% would avoid

Food was late and undercooked. Chicken still cold in the middle and chips were undercooked and soggy! Very poor
