Fortune House Chinese Cuisine

Overall good Chinese food with mostly hits but a few misses. There aren't many Chinese restaurants around this area so happy to have this nearby!Hits- Pork soup dumpling. I tend to be picky about soup dumplings because my family is from around the Shanghai area but these surprised be pleasantly with a lot of soup but not being too oily. - Salted pork soup. Flavorful and light brothy soup you don't get too often amongst more Americanized starchier soups like Hot and Sour soup. Only con here was that there weren't too many ingredients in there, probably only 3-4 pieces of tofu. - Yangzhou fried rice. Tasty fried rice although not completely up to an actual "Yangzhou" style fried rice that's usually drier rice but overall would order again- Honey walnut prawn. A very tasty dish in general but appreciated the large prawn size. A little too much mayo for my taste but enjoyed a lotMiss- Lions head meatball had an artificial sweetener flavor to it, almost like Stevia and it was a strong aftertaste. Don't really recommend from this location- Snow peas. A standard Chinese stir fry veggie but it was very oily and wet, which usually defeats the purpose of a veggie

Wonderful experience! Saturday night dinner, we were seated immediately as a party of four. Our waiter was super attentive and had lots of support from his peers. While the restaurant was busy, it wasn't too noisy-our table was able to have a nice conversation and hear each other.The fish tank when you walk in is impressive, such beautiful fish!Parking was a little packed but not terrible.We ordered:Pork soup dumplings Dumpling Sampler-FriedSesame Chicken-Steamed RiceHoney Walnut Shrimp-Fried RiceShanghai Fried RiceShanghai Scallion NoodlesEvery single dish was superb! Temperature on point, flavors superb, portion sizes plentiful!I definitely recommend stopping in to try this place, you will not be disappointed.

Pan-fried buns Xiaolongbao The crab ones are good, but the truffle ones are just so-soBraised pork Must be eaten with riceOther dishes are pretty good except for the scallion pancakeEven my white colleague said the pancake skin is too thick

Pretty solid Chinese food. I thought the xiao long bao were pretty delicious and a good value. I also like the braised pork, it was a nice combination of fatty and leaner meat with some bok choy and tofu strips. It came with a choice of fried rice or noodles too. Overall, I enjoyed my meal and will be back to try more dishes on the menu!

First time at this location. We came on a Sunday afternoon around 1 PM. We first discovered this place during their soft opening at the Greenville location. This place must be their original location since it has a much older feel.The first thing I noticed was the off putting smell - like backed up sewage & overwhelming bathroom. I'm pretty sensitive to smells, but the smell was throughout the whole restaurant. (I think it's the cleaner they use, it's too strong smelling.) The second thing was the menus - they definitely need a reprint as both our menus had very faded ink & looked like they had been spilled on multiple times - I had to ask for a new one since I couldn't read the first one they gave me. Soup Dumplings - Good flavor. Dumplings did not stick to each other nor on the serving container. Skin was thin & plenty of soup inside. I would recommend these.Chow Mein (pork) - Good flavor. Pork was not overcooked.Salt & Pepper Fish - Nice a crispy. Good flavor. I think it could have been slightly stronger by about 10-20% & it would have been phenomenal. I would still recommend. Pan Fried Pork Buns - Bottoms of buns are lined with sesame seeds, which I thought was interesting. I'm not a fan of lots of sesame seeds, but the flavor was not too overwhelming. A lot of soul in these, which I found surprising. I would recommend. Overall, the food was spot on, but the environment definitely needs to be refreshed. The service was great - everyone was friendly, prompt, & food came out fast. I would have given this place a 5/5 if it wasn't for the run down feeling & off putting smell. The smell really interfered with my ability to taste the food properly. Not sure if I would recommend this place in its current condition. Maybe we'll try takeout next time.

I uber eats this place on a regular basis but never been in person till last night. Food was terrific as always! The service was good and atmosphere was ok. We got sat in a very dark corner but other than that I have no complaints!

I've been coming here for years and I've seen this restaurant go down a bit further with each visit. This time, they had a few items unavailable at 11:30am. I'd understand not having items available in the evening or late afternoon, but not when you barely open. The scent of mothballs runs deep throughout the restaurant. It was somewhat bothersome during the meal. The eggplant dish I had was good, although it came with a lukewarm small bowl of rice. Don't know if I'll be making a trip back...this one was disappointing.

The food here is downright delicious. My wife, who's as picky as a food critic with a chip on her shoulder, claims it's some of the best she's had in all of DFW. And I have to agree; every bite was a tasty little masterpiece.But then there's the service... Lord help us. It was sloooow. Like, 'I could've raised a sourdough starter' slow. And here's where things took a turn: two gentlemen were wheeled into the hallway, smack dab in the middle of the servers' NASCAR-like hustle. At least one server tripped over a wheelchair. Sweet baby Jesus, you'd think they'd park them up front where there's a bit more elbow room for everyone. Though when my wife asked, the server mentioned the gentleman wanted to be parked there. So, for the food? Five stars, easy. But the slow service and hallway chaos knock it down to four.

Interesting spot tucked away in a shopping center. Ample seating from a bar area right at the entrance to the main dining area in the back with a "view" of the surrounding area as it sits a bit elevated. Felt a bit warm/humid inside but fortunately only 3 other tables a little after 7 on a Thursday (3 more came in before I left). Came in after reading recommendations on the best spot for XLB in greater Dallas area. I got an order of XLB, marinated duck, kao fu and sautéed bok choy seeking an authentic Shanghai experience. Service was meh, mostly prompt and friendly at least, place appeared clean and organized inside. Food started coming out 10 min after ordering. Kao fu came first and was warm, quite honestly would've preferred cold as the reheat caused it to become a bit tough and rubbery vs the airy and crisp texture it should be (and more likely to be without additional reheating after initial cook) - 3/5. XLB was next to come out and while some ginger slices were in a dish that was brought out, I had to specifically ask for traditional black vinegar as only white vinegar. Calamity struck shortly after however, while the container was marked vinegar, was actually filled with soy sauce, big L there and almost completely ruined a XLB. Order came out with 8pc and tbh probably the best I've had in the states, rivaling that of a much more expensive offering at Ding Tai Fun. Very thin wrap, delightful soup inside and a nice filling also. Easily 4/5 and would've been 5/5 if not for the vinegar/soy sauce mishap. (Could also afford to be less stingy on the ginger slices). Bok choy came out 3rd and was largely pretty solid. Main complaint in that it was lazily cut and retained way too much of the tough stem. 3/5After 30 min and no duck I had to ask one of the waitstaff who was standing around with another just chatting. It did come out hot 5 min later and sauce and taste on point, very tender also. Serving size was very much a snack/appetizer portion and it was really just a leg cut up with a tiny bit of the thy, a lot of small bones and whatnot to work through. 4/5. Lastly, rice was a bit undercooked so I had maybe 2 bites and left it alone. Overall a nice spot with tasty and authentic food. Staff and service could work on attentiveness especially when the place sat mostly empty. I wouldn't hesitate to come back and feast out on XLB alone.

Probably go here every other month. Location is convenient and the food is actually good. Haven't had anything I didn't like. From lo mein noodles to the por soup dumplings. My favorite is the cucumber salad. Would recommend to family and friends especially for drinks since the inside is very beautifully done and decorated. Service has always been up to par no issues ever.
