Worst Chinese I've ever eaten! – When we ordered they said it would be 45 minutes for delivery, but it was over to an hour. We got general tsos chicken, chicken fried rice and crab rangoons. I don't have one positive thing to say about any of it. The general tsos was slimy and mushy and had way more vegetables than chicken (big chunks of green peppers). The crab rangoons were small and soggy. I also hate when they don't send you the red sweet and sour- only those yellow packets. The fried rice was edible, but not good by any... read more

Best Chinese – Often crowded with large Chinese families, but after 7:30 things quiet down. Order from the Chinese menu (English translation) and try especially the Shrimp with honey walnuts. Best single dish ever in Chinese restaurant. I would rate this as one of the 2 best Chinese restaurants in my experience, and the other is in Amsterdam and very expensive. Fortune, by contrast, is very inexpensive and offers many dishes for the adventuresome. Try also spicy salt and pepper smelts.

Great – great food, decent prices. I ordered take-out for my first time using Fortune and it was hot and ready to go in 15 minutes. I had the vegetable fried rice from the "American" menu and the braised eggplant from the "Chinese" menu. Both were terrific. Highly recommend it.

Wonderful Chinese Food – Some of the best Chinese food I've every had, and I lived in the Orient for four years. Wonderful menu. Make sure you get both menus. If you're a little adventurous, try the jelly fish or the strawberry seaseme chicken. Every dish that I have had there has been perfectly seasoned. Definitely the best Chinese food in the Milwaukee area.

Best Crab Rangoon in Town – LOVE Fortune's Crab Rangoon -- They are simply the best in the city! Each order has 8 pieces, the dough is tightly wrapped around the filling, no excess dry edges as you might find elsewhere. If you order an appetizer the main dish should be enough for two to share. One of our favorites is the Szechwan Chicken; although depending on the cook spiciness of the dish and crispiness of chicken can vary... nonetheless it's always very yummy!

Editorial Review by Christy Buena – Authentic Cantonese restaurant is often bustling as locals flock for chop suey, chow mein and large portions.

Great food and Great price – An excellent choice for dinner or lunch, and a great value too, my family has always had a great meal and ended up with leftovers to take home for the next day, they even have a drive thru so when you don't have time but want great food and don't want a burger in a bag for about the same price.Their lunch specials are a great value too, I have recomended it to many people who have all been very happy with their experience, they also have a resturant down the street in Hales Corners.

Almost, not quite – I really wanted to recommend this place, but there are 2 major issues. 1) the service is pretty good initially, but once your meal comes it dies out quickly. 2) the selection and flavor is too far off what I expect in a Chinese place. They have some of the basic dishes, but they make them in a slightly different fashion. Also, the building is very small so no large groups here.
