I've yet to get a delivery from Fortune house that was less than excellent.Last time, it was egg rolls, garlic shrimp, & two things of rice. I got 4 meals out of it!

Got take out one night after work. Was good (not great), but I would go back and try something else. Egg rolls were included with an online order of a certain amount so check the website!

When living in Elgin, Fortune House was my go-to Chinese restaurant. I'd order through the app and my always tasty food would typically be ready in a very short while I usually ordered sesame chicken or orange chicken with pork fried rice... the rice was as much of a star of the show as the chicken, full of vegetables along with the pork and rice. Not much in terms of ambiance, you walk in, get drinks from their cooler before getting your food promptly handed to you at the time it was ready (there is a little seating at the Schaumburg location if memory serves me right), and walk out knowing you're going to have a tasty meal at home at a very reasonable price. Fortune House, you are missed.

Something has changed in the Elgin location. I normally order shrimp fried rice and it's used to be good. Last two times it's dry and the rice sticks together. Used to not have to use any soy sauce but it's not flavorful anymore. I mentioned it this time when I ordered via phone but it still wasn't cooked like it used to be about 6 months ago. Guess I have to start looking for a new plane to order from.

This place was not very good as the meat seemed rough and not fresh and most of the dishes I tried were mostly vegetable lacking of real meat. This place was a total disappointment there is no seating inside and it looks pretty unkept and pretty dirty a takeout place and I was expecting a lot more. I would never recommend this place

Quick and fresh every time I order to go! I usually get the pepper and tomato beef lunch combo and it is always good. Their eggrolls are not my personal favorite but I still eat them. Still great price and good amount of food. My go-to for local chinese!
