Not a fan of the BS (Bait & Switch). We come in for lunch, they give us Dinner menus. We ordered dinner for lunch. Come to find out, there still is a lunch menu, but apparently we have to ask for it! We get it, the economy sucks right now. We are all feeling the pinch. Can't trust Fortune House to do the right thing, so they lost us as customers.

I was excited to try this place but it didn't live up to expectations. Chili wontons were the favorite. Steamed soup dumplings were good but they were stuck together & skin so soft that they break open. Pan fried dumplings didn't have any flavor and dough was thick & chewy. Beef chow fun had good flavor but noodles were all stuck together on one side of plate

Was craving soup dumplings and heard this was a good place to try out. We ended up setting a reservation since it's a holiday weekend incase and went a little early to beat the crowd. We started off with the crab rangoons and the garlic cucumbers. The garlic cucumbers was 10/10! The crab rangoons were not as expected probably like an 8/10 still delicious with the sauces that came with it. Ordered the pork and pork/crab soup dumplings which both were phenomenal. Was a good mix of soup and meat! The spicy green beans were a perfect blend of spicy, sweet and savory 10/10. Overall the food was exceptional and the service was great. They were pretty busy but Reese was amazing and working hard. He was so attentive to us to make sure everything was great and if we got all the food we ordered. Will definitely make the drive again to get our soup dumpling fix.

Got charged 35 dollars for meh rose sake when I asked for 9 dollar peach sake, I haven't had this expensive of a meal in a while. Flies during dinner time with meh twice cooked pork and chow mein...I rarely give less than 3 stars (look at my reviews) but when I do, it's bad.Wish I could like this place but that soured the rest of my week so I'm not letting this one go.

We come here often for their soup dumplings, pan fried buns and their noodles! The soup dumplings are great, but wish they did have a little more soup in them. The pan fried buns have a crispy bottom and soft top. The chili wontons were flavorful and another favorite! There is usually about an hour wait on Friday night and weekends so be prepared to wait. Cannot make reservations. Plentiful parking out front.

I had high hopes for Fortune House as it was recommended by a foodie friend of mine but was underwhelmed by the food. We ordered the soup dumplings and mapu tofu. The soup dumplings were all touching at the edges and they stuck together which made it impossible to pick one up without tearing an edge of the wrapper and spilling out all the soup inside. The mapu tofu was also flawed: it had no visible pork in it and was a bit bland in both heat and flavor. Perhaps the chef was having an off day because my friend usually does not steer me wrong.The service was generally good but I was left sitting for 10 minutes with an empty water glass at one point.Pros: The atmosphere was surprisingly upscale for a Chinese restaurant in this price range. Easy to park. Outside patio seating is available.

We came in pretty late (8pm) on a Saturday and were seated relatively fast! It was pretty hot inside but they opened the doors to air it out maybe 3/4 of the way through our dinner. They are a Shanghai kitchen so we had to order the Shanghai noodles and the dumplings! The pan fried buns were amazing, I don't typically see it with sesame seeds on the bottom but it added some good texture. The soup dumplings were also good but we had two that got stuck to the paper and ended up tearing. The noodles were amazing! Really tasty and well-portioned. However the Chinese broccoli was mostly stalk and felt like there wasn't enough florets. It also needed a little bit more flavor. Service was very quick and friendly!
Decided to check this spot out bc I was craving XLB. Upon walking in, there's a small bar and station where you can see the dumplings being made. There's a cute fish tank in the lobby and the decor is nice. I only wish the booths were in better shape as the leather was torn on most of them making for slightly uncomfortable seating. We started off with the garlic cucumber which was sooo good! It was the perfect balance of dressing. The Pork XLB were on the smaller side but nicely filled and super tasty. The pork buns looked perfectly toasted with sesame seeds and had the perfect filling. Slightly soupy and delicious! Finally the house fried rice. Big portion of rice loaded with chicken peas and carrots. Service was fairly quick and friendly!

Finally got to try out this place. Maybe more like 3.5*/ 5. Initial service was kind of slow but it got better throughout the meal. Our server stopped by frequently to make sure we had water and had everything we needed. It got busy quickly around lunch but she was still attentive. What we ordered:- Chili oil wontons: different from other places. Had a peanut-y kind of sauce and wasn't spicy. It was good but not the best- Crispy pork buns: these were my favorite! Super crispy and sesame bottom, juicy and flavorful pork filling. If anything, you have to get this here!- Pork xlb: I had higher expectations for this. It's definitely more juicy than other places, but the wrapper was a bit too thick. Flavor was good but not a lot of pork inside tbh. - Beef chow fun, pan fried chicken dumplings and cucumber salad: all of these were meh. My friend and I didn't like the filling for the chicken dumplings too much. It wasn't super crispy either for being pan fried. Noodles in the beef chow fun were over cooked to me? Taste was pretty standard. If they didn't over cook the noodles, I'd like it more. Cucumber salad was good. Not spicy and not what I expected but it was a refreshing contrast to the meal.Oh we also got bok choy and their string beans. Worth it for the price and we wanted veggies. Overall, Fortune House is good but not amazing. It was on my list for quite a while so glad I got to try it. I'll come back for the crispy pork buns and maybe try one or two other items.

Amazing service from our waiter! Food was bomb we ate the chicken pan fried dumplings, soup dumplings and crab rangoons! The lighting was nice gave it a chill vibe. I prefer this location over the Greenville location.

We have never eaten inside the restaurant, we have only ever picked up food to take home. The bao is our favorite and I love the soup dumplings. The food is always a good quality and we never have to wait too long for our order. It can get a little pricey at times, but the quality of the food is worth it.
