Fortune

Stopped in for a bite after a concert, pretty quiet on a Sunday night but a lovely, cozy vibe. The bartender was friendly and helpful! They offer a small vegan menu, we got a couple of things and enjoyed them all but- the mac and cheese is life-changing. It's a curly cavatappi pasta with a house-made cheese sauce and fake parmesan on top. It has a super nutty, cheesy flavor profile and is the best thing I've eaten in a long time. The bartender admitted that it was a struggle not to order it for every shift meal. The steak sandwich was large and tasty, the seitan was very tender, and the parmesan fries were good. Can't wait to go back and try more stuff, but if it's your first time? Try the mac n cheese.

I am reviewing Fortune as a bar and restaurant. I cannot comment on Fortune as a club, as I'm too old for clubs and will not patron during those hours.FORTUNE HAS AMAZING VEGAN FOOD!!!And listen, I'm not vegan. My homegirl is vegan and wanted to take me out for my birthday. I had genuinely been wanting to try this place, so it seemed perfect.When we arrived (Tuesday evening), we were greeted by a mostly empty space. I wasn't mad about it; I really wanted to cozy up on one of the couches.Sadly, we were alerted that they were out of all their mac and cheese. Booo!!! Nonetheless, we ordered drinks at the bar and started out with the Parmesan & Rosemary Garlic Fries and the Mozzarella Sticks.That Watermelon Margarita is FIRE. Not too sweet at all. I ordered two.The food came out rather quickly. I didn't like that they did not provide us with any napkins. The fries were DELICIOUS. I loved the Secret Sauce. My friend was thoroughly enjoying dipping her fries into creamy vegan sauce.THE MOZZARELLA STICKS WERE AMAZING!!! I'm writing this the next day and I want another order of the Mozarella Sticks. Did I mention that I am soooo not vegan? These are the best dern mozarella sticks. I would never order mozzarella sticks at a bar. Deep fried cheese? I'll pass. But, these bad boys are like deep fried sticks filled with cheese sauce. My word!!! Okay, I might need to go tomorrow just for a shot of green Chartreuse and an order of Mozzarella sticks. Yummmmm!!!Okay? Moving on to entrees (they did bring napkins and silverware with our entrees). We settled on the Cauliflower Bowl and the Bakon Jam & Gruyère Burger. Fortune knocked it out of the park again. My burger was fabulous. The bakon was crispy and everything involved was just mouthwatering juicy. My friend's Cauliflower Bowl looked plentiful. She said the chickpeas were great. That harissa aioli definitely added a kick to the dish.RUN, do not walk to Fortune... just not late night when the young kids are out. And leave me some space on the couch.

Very confused why Fortune has such low reviews when the vegan food here is so tasty and the vibes are cozy. The vegan mozzarella sticks are absolutely delicious with gooey filling that perfectly complements the marinara sauce. Don't resist the temptation to savor every crunchy bite!The chicken burger here is iconic and an exact replica of the McChicken at McDonald's from the creamy mayo to the sweetness of the bun and the delightful texture of the chicken. And let's not forget about the seasoned crunchy fries. Unfortunately, the bacon mac n cheese didn't quite hit the mark for me, as the sweetness was a bit overwhelming.I accidentally left my hair clip here, but the servers went above and beyond by kindly keeping it for me. Exceptional service!

Awesome bar with cool moody lighting and fun events! Went on a jazz night and it was very cozy...Chicken sandwich was soo good. I cant believe they can make vegan meat have the same juiciness, tenderness, and flavor as actual chicken. The mozzarella sticks were amazing as well, not too stretchy, but a bit more gooey, flavorful, and warm.Chipotle mac and cheese was good but sat a bit heavy in my stomach. I think it was also a bit too sweet overall, and the bacon bits were a tad bit too salty. Go with the chicken sandwich and mozzarella sticks for sure.The drinks were also good but I just had beers on tap. Service was excellent and bartenders were friendly and on point.

A super cool and vibrant spot for creative drinks. I love how open the space is with colorful decors and many seatings.The bartenders were both very friendly.We got the Watermelon Magarita and Shinobi's. Both were very tasty and well-made.Totally would be back to try more!

I've been here a couple times now! It's right by my work so great for an after work happy hour. I'm sad that they changed the shape of the fries, they used to be shoe string and now they're thicker. The drinks are always good.

Unfortunately have not yet had a chance to try the food yet but perfect spot for super club hours with live DJ and overall very fun safe vibe!!! Love the staff and the close proximity to hotel and valet parking!! Gets super crowded near and around small dance floor but three sections and areas for plenty of separate seated spaces? Line forms outside around 10-11pm but early arrival for more chill dope vibes at 9....Highly recommended!!

If I was just rating this place based upon what I ordered I would give it 5 stars, but I was the only one in my party that thought my burger was delicious. I had the Bakon Jam & Gruyere Burger which I thought was yummy, but my mom and husband had the Crispy Chicken Sandwich which wasn't nearly as exciting. I tried a bite, and I have to agree it was rather on the bland side. Everyone wished they had ordered what I had. We also had an order of Mozzarella Sticks, which was thankfully enjoyed by all. Overall this is an interesting place, as the ambiance is very hip and trendy, but the menu is very simple, which doesn't really match up to overall esthetics.

VEGAN REVIEWanother great Portland plant-based bar!really fun cocktails. had a delicious & refreshing concoction.delish food! I had the eggless salad sandwich. split the mozzerella sticks with my ladies- so good!love the ambiance & music.friendly service. not fast, but not terribly slow.will definitely return.

I've only been once and there's a whole lot to like about this place. Even tho there are a few aspects that could have been better on this one visit.Atmosphere: Highly Interesting and open vibe. Lots of options for seating and quite comfortable. Service: we arrived shortly after opening and it appeared there was only one person working. He seemed uninterested in having us there. And did not tend to details like providing silverware or following up after food was delivered to see if all was ok (both are basic restaurant staff behaviors). Menu: A variety of cool sounding vegan options. Super appreciative that it's all vegan! Would be even more impressive with a wider variety of choices. Food: The burger I ordered had excellent texture and deep robust savory flavors. A truly excellent burger with pickles, onlon, a small bit of lettuce and some sauce. Would have liked it even more if it was less salty though, the salt was a bit overpowering.Pie and ice cream for dessert, which was a real treat! So glad this is offered here! The crust was superb and the filling was nice, real berries and good flavor, only caveat is that is was a bit overly sweet which took away from the fruitiness. The vanilla ice cream was excellent. Will definitely return and try some of the other interesting sounding options.
