" As a frequent traveler to Japan, it is so hard to find an authentic Japanese restaurant abroad. I stumbled across Happa, and it didn’t disappoint. The flavors were spot on, and I especially loved the eggplant with minced pork – it transported me back to Japan! The service was friendly, and I appreciated how welcoming the staff was. The only downside was the decor; it felt very plain, but the food made up for that. Overall, a memorable dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Definitely an excellent choice for a casual meal! The food was tasty and the service exceeded my expectations. I ordered the Tuna Poke and it was incredible! Fresh and satisfying, a true delight! I could easily recommend this to anyone looking for a comfortable meal with delightful flavors. Looking forward to trying more from their menu next time! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had the best time! The food was superb, and I absolutely loved the friendly service. Got to try the beef and veggie stir fry, so delicious! They were not shy on the flavors, let me tell you! Definitely a fun place where you can unwind after work, and it wasn’t overly crowded when I visited. Will certainly be returning soon for that tasty stir fry again! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you're in the mood for tasty Japanese food, then Happa is a solid choice. My family loves this place, and we try to visit every month! The kids love the bento boxes, which offer a good mix of flavors. I personally enjoyed the grilled stingray – something rare but absolutely delicious! The staff is always friendly and ready to help with any request. It can get busy during dinner hours, so be prepared to wait a bit, but it's totally worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Wow! What an amazing find. If you're looking for authentic Japanese cuisine, look no further. I had their Tonkatsu and it was honestly the best I've had outside of Japan. The breading was crispy and the pork was so tender. The atmosphere was laid-back yet inviting. The staff went above and beyond to ensure my meal was perfect, and I really appreciated their attention to detail. I will definitely be coming back to try more dishes. Highly recommend it to anyone in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" It was an unplanned stop for us, and we were pleasantly surprised by how authentic the food tasted! Each dish we ordered brought back memories of our trip to Japan. The Agedashi Tofu was just right – not over-fried at all. Service was friendly, although they seemed a bit overwhelmed during the rush. The prices are reasonable for what you get, making it a great option for casual dining with friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have tried many Japanese restaurants, but none compare to the authenticity of Happa. The flavors are pure and well-balanced, especially in their tempura dishes. I enjoyed chatting with the staff; they genuinely love what they're doing and it shows. The location is quite convenient as well, being attached to the hotel. A relaxing and comfortable vibe, which is perfect after a long day. Will be back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)
