The burger was very good, I had the patty melt and I think that was one of the most interesting burgers I’ve ever had, in a good way! The yucca chips I was very hesitate at first but they changed my mind after the 2nd bite! I gotta say it would normally be a tiny pricey, I understand this is upscale food but also a little high in my opinion. Their service is fine, but the brewery its in they weren’t as friendly but that was the only place to get any drinks (pepsi’s) at all. I wish they had a french fries option instead of just yucca, just to be there. Overall amazingly yummy food!

Automatically adds a 20% service charge on the food. I was gonna tip that much anyways, but I would like to have a choice in the matter. Basically just makes the food look less expensive on the menu.

I just heated my burger up and after the first bite I thought I should leave a review! My wife and I have eaten here several times! We first came to have a beer and saw a guy walking some delicious looking nachos to a table.I immediately stopped him and asked what they were. He looked like he was already ready for the question lol! He stood there with the biggest smile on his face introduced himself as Brandon a proud cook at Happy Belly Bistro, and explained to us with great detail what all came on the nachos. I told him he should make a commercial! After that first time we’ve made it a regular thing to come and eat, with some experiences with different workers not exactly being the same. And yesterday my wife I both agree that the love, vibe, and taste of the food doesn’t seem to be 100% the same when he’s not there, although there’s never been a time it was horrible. Yesterday we walked in and were thinking pizza but noticed he was working so went to say hi. He immediately sold my wife on the pork tacos, again giving a mouthwatering description, there was no way to say no!! All in all we give our experiences at happy belly a 4.7 star and a 10 star with Brandon. We can’t wait to meet the owners, he’s said nothing but great things and if he’s stemmed y’all I know y’all are great.

Happy Belly had a pop-up location inside Ten20 brewery where my friends and I shared a shareable nacho platter. This was by far the best nachos I’ve ever had in my life. The chips never were soggy, every bite had chicken, herbs, and queso fresco cheese, making every bite just as good as the last. And wow, I can taste the jalapeno and parsley in each bite, it was amazing.

The pictures and website of this place make it look 10x better than it actually is. It is not a great representation of the actually set up. This is not a sit-down restraunt. The 1 person that was working was not polite, did not greet us when we approached the counter. We had to get his attention while he sat there on his phone at the counter (he could clearly see us standing there). After getting our order, a DEAD SPIDER was served on my daughters plate. The one guy working there tried to argue with me, stating, “That’s fried kale, not a spider.” Although he did make my daughter a new sandwich, before leaving when asked for a refund, tried to argue with me again that it was not a spider that I saw. He did give me a $6 refund from my $100 order… I did not feel this was justified, but I didn’t want to continue arguing, so I chose to leave unhappy. We WILL NOT return. I am leaving pictures of the spider attached to this review… I’ll let you bw the judge if it’s a spider or kale . Terrible dining experience!

I went to the restaurant as part of Black Eats week. I had looked up the menu on-line and was excited since I saw several things I wanted to try, however when I went to the restaurant the menu was more limited and many of the items I saw on-line were not on the menu or available. I asked about several items since I was indecisive and was told by the restaurant staff that the Nachos were their best selling item so I ordered that. It looked really good, however when I tasted it, it was too bland for my taste buds. I saw cilantro but couldn’t really taste it. I wish the ground beef had been seasoned better/more. I like olives but I took some of the olives off because they seemed to drown out the other flavors. I’m not sure if jalapeño peppers were an option as a topper but that would have been a nice touch of heat. I didn’t eat too much of my Nacho and opted to get a to go box (knowing I would enjoy it better at home once I could add my own pop of flavor with the avocado dip featured in the pic). I really enjoyed it with the addition of this sauce. The portion size was very generous, although I wish there was more seasoned ground beef on the nacho. The staff were very pleasant. The shared space with the other restaurant was a nice ambience. I would like to go back and try the Philly cheesesteaks which I was told is the number 2 best selling item. Hopefully when I go back some of the other items like Elote will be available.

$18 plus fees for a burger with stale chips from a bag is a bit much. The tacos were disappointing as were the stale tortilla chips and jarred salsa. Go to ten20 but not for food.

Man the Hot dogs look good. I Ordered a Hot Dog at 11:57, they open at 12. After waiting 25 minutes I went to check on the order. The gentleman tells me it will be 30 more minutes because he had a bunch of orders in front of me. Unfortunately I didn’t have time to wait an hour for a hot dog. I asked to cancel the order. After reviewing the orders, there was 3 orders in front of me. If you know you’re going to be busy on a game day, get some more help. Seems like 1 guy would have a hard time sending out orders in a timely manor.

Where do I start? I have been dying to try this place for months and finally got around to it Saturday. First of the staff was wonderful. I was greeted by the chef and the young lady taking my order. Both were so friendly. I had the special which was the empanadas (I think its spelled wrong) they were so flavorful, I just wish they had a little more cheese but that’s because I love cheese. I also had the birria tacos, the cheese on those was perfect! They tasted great and the broth was so good I wanted to drink it. I got an order of the nachos and all of this was to go. It was so thoughtful of them to package the chips separate from everything else so my chips wouldn’t be soggy when I got home. Overall the experience was stellar and I will definitely be back. Thank you for the wonderful experience and food. Keep doing what you do.
