Family wanted to try this out after seeing the reviews – the food came out very quickly for our large group (10+), portions were great sized and perfect for sharing.Unfortunately the service is where the dining went awry. Im not sure if the gentleman (White, black hair with a receding hairline) waiting on us was overworked or extremely stressed but Ive never experienced such a negative server. He had to come back and clarify with three members of the family about their order (apparently the menu had wrongly listed other food items under the Chow Mein section.)This is no problem, but his tone was repeatedly condescending and actually rolled his eyes at us. When he wasnt dealing with us he was loudly arguing with the other kitchen and waitstaff well within earshot of those dining. The food was good but the service experience was so uncomfortable I have no desire to return to test the rest of their menu.
We have been eating here for 10 years since moving to Winnipeg. One standard dish we always order is the #170 Singapore Noodle dish. You will not be disappointed by ordering this dish among other great tasting dishes such as the ginger beef and lemon chicken. The deluxe wanton soup is really good too. Great portions and fair pricing.
Not sure what they serve, I have been going here since they opened and all I order is the deluxe wonton soup, best I ever had. You wont be disappointed guaranteed.
Have always had great food here! Serving staff friendly & helpful. Wish they would get someone with a better understanding of English for their Take-Out? Had to make a report to the Health Dept as they had stuff in boxes piled high, up against & blocking the back door ….. illegal & a fire hazard! Also, had huge dusty/dirty bags of rice etc stored along walls leading to the back door/washrooms that one would brush against while walking by ….. illegal as well …. fire hazard! Next time everything was cleaned-up. Have not been there for a very long time, hope it is still clear? Oh, if they only had Delivery … or at least Skip The Dishes!N.B. It says online that they have delivery, but they don’t!
Great food though as the others had said can sometimes be a bit greasy. Huge food portions that can usually feed 1-3 ppl. Service is fast (w/the exception during busy hrs) & staff are friendly. Really recommend their shrimp w/almonds!
Was going to the airport to pick someone up to only discover the flight was over an hour delayed. Since I was in the area we decided to stop in to Fortune Cooking for dinner. I haven’t been here in years, and it hasn’t changed one bit.The restaurant is spacious with plenty of large tables for families or large gatherings. It was surprisingly busy for a weekday evening, but the staff kept up and made sure we were taken care of.Fortune cooking has a large western Chinese food menu as well as another traditional Cantonese/Hong Kong cuisine menu. We ordered exclusively from the latter and the food came out of the kitchen very promptly. The food was good but for those unused to Southern Chinese cooking, you may find it too greasy. This was nearing on the cusp of too greasy for me, but it was well seasoned and well cooked so props for that. Also, the prices for the dishes are very reasonable. The value definitely makes up for any shortfalls.Like I said before, this place has been open for many years and it doesn’t appear to have been renovated. The decor is dated and the restaurant could be cleaner. If we’re in the area again, we’d be back.
It was great!! The service was wonderful, the food was fantastic!!! We would be back more often, so very glad we found this place! The price was spot on with the portions and ended up taking a lot home… love left over Chinese food!
