Happy’s Pizza was founded by Happy Asker in Detroit, Michigan, in 1994. The company operates a chain of pizza and sandwich shops.
The company opens locations where other pizza restaurants won’t or in places where they have failed. The company now has 95 locations in 6 states, most of them franchised. The menu includes more than just pizza, with sandwiches, salads, chicken, wings, shrimp, and seafood. The main emphasis is on pizza, however.
The founder, Happy Asker, and 5 other shareholders were indicted in 2010 on tax evasion and fraud. Asker was found guilty in July of 2015 and sentenced to 4 years in prison, as well as a fine of $2.5 million. Former COO Maher Bashi was also sentenced to 2 years. John Moran has taken over as new CEO.
Despite the company’s legal problems, new locations continue to open and business has continued.

Horrible customer service. First I’ve had such Horrible customer service. It’s been a nightmare dealing with then. Happy’s messed up on my order about 3 times in one day and refuse to comply with my wishes of a refund. Looking to have this reported. I’m deeply disappointed! Won’t be back again
Maria I Fernandez-Ahola says
We ordered some fried Shrimp, fried Mushrooms and coleslaw at the store in Waterford, MI. (5799 Dixie Hwy, Waterford, MI 48239). The fried food was cold, and the cole slow was sour. When we called back to attempt to rectify the situation they were rude and wanted nothing to do with us. THis was incredibly rude. The person on the phone hung up on us after my husband told him that he was extremely unhappy with the service.
Ty Fleming says
They just did the same thing to me in one of the Lansing mi stores
Shyan says
Happys pizza in Columbus Ohio on E main street in Whitehall IS ABSOLUTELY RUDE, disrespectful AND UNPROFESSIONAL!!!! Every time my order is wrong they get mad and say there’s nothing they can do. I order from them EVERY MONTH !!!!!! Almost every day . They took my order at 7:00p and driver never came . They didn’t care or do anything about it. I tried ordering again and asking for a manager and LISA wouldn’t give me any information to any managers or herself and hung up on me . Everyone there has a SMART A** MOUTH
Jacqueline Carney says

Ashley Pinkham says
I have been trying to contact Eva at corporate office to get a refund for THREE MONTHS now. I ordered from the Westland location that closed down. Will I ever see this money?!? I have had no communication besides the runaround. This is absolutely ridiculous. The food isn’t good enough to have wasted that money and now I can’t even get it back.
CAN SOMEONE HELP ME?!????

To whom it may concern
My wife placed and order at Happy’s Pizza #90. Cincinnati. 1064 W. North Bend Rd. Cincinnati, OH 45224 and to total order came to around $50 dollars. When my wife inquired about how long it would take the person on the phone ( who didn’t give his name ) told her that they were ( hella ) busy and they would get to it when they could.After hearing this I decided to cancel our order. About 2 minutes after canceling our order we received a phone call from Happy’s pizza.They were unsure why we wanted to cancel our order. After explaining about how rude there customer service was and verifying that I was indeed canceling our order I was met with a some obscene language ( Stupid Ass Mother XXXXXer ) and hung up on. This a place that should be shut down and retrained on proper customer service.
Karen Dewyer says
I ordered a pizza online on 6-4-18 at Happy’s Pizza on Ann Arbor Trail in Westland waited an hour and no pizza came so I called and there was no answer so I drove up there and it was closed because of new management but we were still charged for the pizza so I called the corporate office and talk to a lady named Eva she said she got hundreds of calls over the same issue all I got was the runaround and never got my money back

I’m Larry and Quanya Augstus we are only informing you there are father Larry Augustus Is a loyal and hard-working man and even though he loves us he also enjoy working with Happys pizza and we just want you all to No thank you again
Tasha Spencer says
Dear happy’s Pizza my name is Larry Augustus and my name Quanya Augustus and our father have work for you for over 12 years we love that our father is a part or the happy Family and even though we love that Happys pizza is in allowing our father to provide for us but he never has time to enjoy his self sometimes he work seven days out of the week on some days he worked three days in the morning in three days at night we are happy that he have a job but he do not make over nine dollars an hour and sometimes he cannot buy the things we want. My father feels if he can provide the things we need one day he will buy the things we want. We just wanted you to know that our father have a family of six and he loves working for your company. Thank you for allowing us to comment.

This man deserves $10.00 an hour. If you likes his job he does his job good that means you have a good employee if you have a good employee you want to keep that employee so you need to pay that employee and you need to give him what he needs in life there’s no sense in working any job if you don’t get what you need so I demand as a customer to pay him at the set rate above immediately or I will stop giving you the $200 a week I spend at your location in Flint Michigan Pierson Road and by the way I put up with your rude employees that work there and I still by your pizza so give this man a raise because he’s got 6 kids that it needs to feed and how
