“ We've been here twice and want to become regulars! We're so excited to have found authentic Cantonese food on this side of town. They have their own parking lot which is a huge plus! The interior is very old school Cantonese restaurant - exactly like the ones I use to frequent with my family growing up. The service is top-notch. They are SO friendly and really go above and beyond the call of service, like it's unmatched. Everything we've tried so far has been good and authentic. We've had the chicken corn soup, shrimp with lobster sauce, beef with broccoli (beef was SO tender!), bbq pork with snow peas (ordered this both times because it's so good!), and vegetable crispy noodles. We also ordered their Peking duck on Thanksgiving and it was delicious! They are open every single day! Highly recommend this place! ”
“ Great little place to get good food and friendly service. The best part for LA is they have a parking lot! And that's a win. FOOD- all has been good...HarGow / shrimp chow mein, fried rice , broccoli has been excellent. Good amount of shrimp and always tastes fresh and not gummy as in some places that the food has sat forever. SERVICE--you're immediately served fried wontons with sweet n sour sauce and hot tea. We've had 2 occasions where service was slow but they make it up because they'll give you a cup of soup on the house--not a norm but it's happened to us and we love their corn egg soup very delicious. It's now a must request for us. AMBIENCE--the restaurant is clean, the parking lot has been safe and the bathrooms are clean. The outside can be deceiving don't let that deter you. While visiting my daughter we found this place as our first Chinese restaurant and now it's become our go to for Chinese food and the service is always very friendly! ”
“ Great flavor, these are a few places personally I would recommend for a good Chinese food, ”
“ OUTSTANDING. Fortune House is an old fashioned family-owned and operated hidden gem offering dine-in, takeout and delivery. Just try it. Thank me later! This restaurant went beyond the call of duty when helping my family and friends during the pandemic, I will never forget their kindness. Remember that one month when there wasn't a can of corn available in California? Or TP?! Or an egg?! We had to get creative and come together as a community to get through it. And we did! Enter Fortune House, a local hero for my family.;) When fortune House found out my elderly family member loved corn, this restaurant put together a special box (for optimum soup transport!) and assisted me in ordering huge takeout sweet corn soups for my happy members. Pro tip: order directly with the family here for the best deals, discounts and services. I love Cantonese special dishes here, everything is good. Generous portions. Delicate homemade sauces. Delicious family-style meals. Superb service. Try the Peking duck, braised vegetables, soft steamed dumplings, succulent char sui, hearty Cantonese soups and so much more. We lived together through a tough time together! The chefs, servers and family at Fortune House will ask me how my elderly family member is doing and I am delighted to say great and thanks in response. I've overheard the family offering great advice about the menu and the city in multiple languages to everyone else too. . At the beginning of the pandemic, we saw people promoting violence in our communities, sometimes while waving a flag, sometimes making a racist or hateful comment. I wanted to grab that flag and hand it to the people who were saving our lives and making our communities a better, safer and more welcoming place. Thanks for caring about my family and all of our families so much. We're really lucky to have you on our side! Five stars Fortune House. 多謝! (Thank you!) ”

“ I came here with two friends on a late and not busy Sunday evening. John was our server and he was quite an exceptional and excellent server. Service was fast, efficient and polite. The food was amazing. Heavy-hitters such as the Honey Walnut Shrimp have nothing to envy other places. Even classics such as Mongolian Beef were delicious and had a new twist to themselves. Their cream cheese wontons were otherworldly and exceptional and the Beef Chow Fun (like Pad See Ew, but Chinese, meaning flat noodles with veggies and some type of protein) was a welcome addition to our family-style dinner. Highly-recommended place if you're in the area. Also, there's good parking and the lot is easily accessible. The location of the restaurant is in an intersection too, so it's hard to miss. ”
“ I had a great experience at Fortune House. We were craving typical Chinese food. I always see this "house" driving down Olympic and San Vicente. It's been there for years! We walked in and sat at a booth. The server was extremely nice and made us feel welcomed. We ordered many dishes and took most of it home. It's great food to satisfy your Chinese food cravings. I will definitely come back! ”
“ We finally found a Chinese food restaurant in LA!! Recently drove past this place with my aunt and she told me her and my great aunt ate here a lot years back. Tonight my partner and I decided we really wanted to have Chinese and I remembered this place. We were very satisfied tonight with our choice!! We ordered the green beans, lamb, fried rice, and orange chicken. All weee very yummy, I appreciated the hint of spice with the green beans and the lamb was a first for having lamb prepared the way it was, and it was so yummy! Definitely want to try this place again and eat in for the full experience! ”
“ It had a B rating! You know that's on point. The sweet & sour sauce is spectacular. It's what you think of when you think of classic Chinese American food your mom and dad used to take you out for on Friday nights. The noodles are those lovely orange ones that are a little thicker than Panda. So good. Can't forget the tea, and wontons with sweet & sour. That's a good indicator of good food. I'd come back here, even if they got an A rating again! It's greasy, salty, savory, sweet. It's everything you want. It made me feel good to find somewhere that scratched the itch. ”
