    Decent Food

    You get what you pay for, its good tasting food. The service thou is not good. If you're looking for a call-in and pickup then its the best bang for the buck, but if you're looking to dine in i suggest somewhere with better service.

    Best for Dinner

    While the lunch portions are not great(you get what you pay for), dinners are great and portions are generous. Brown rice is always available and served in a different bowl. There has been a recent turnover of watressess, but they are all polite and efficient. Still the best place to eat for a reasonably priced dinner, with discount alcohol drinks.

    Decent Food

    You get what you get for 6 bucks. The food is 'ok' for what you pay. You get ALOT of rice not enough meat, but then again... 5.55... Also, the service is very bad. I asked for sauce, finished my meal; payed came back a week later; asked for sauce again finished payed and still they never brought the sauce...

    Good food but they cut a lot of corners here!

    The food is good here. I haven't been disappointed in the taste. The lunch special pretty good with tax it's $6 but the problem here is how much they put in their food. The shrimp with lobster sauce is mostly fried rice & 5 pieces of shrimp with lots of sauce. The rice is good but they're so skimpy with the meat! Their pork chops with salt and pepper is pretty good too but it's mostly bone which is disappointing. This place would be so much better if they stopped putting so much rice in their entrees and actually just put the food that they're advertising.

    excellent value

    A consistently good meal, with super-fast delivery in the Heights. Well-prepared with a deeply varied menu, it's a lot of food for the money. The lunch specials are an especially good deal. Also love the old school sign and decor.

    For ppl who don't know any better

    I live 2 blocks away from this restaurant and due to laziness, I keep making the same mistake of eating here. Thick skinned wantons, hand made but frozen dumplings, the kind of flavorless sauce in their stir frys that forces you to dump hot sauce on to taste it. The lunch special is deceptively priced cheap: $5.55 but the entree portions are small piled with ALOT of rice which makes you feel like you wasted money. I gave them the benefit of the doubt and ordered a dinner entree that is more authentic chinese "seafood tofu casserole". Skimpy portions of seafood and tofu. There is no effort by mgmt to increase the quality of the food at Fortune House, just efforts to cut costs by cutting alot of corners.

    The Best in Brooklyn Heights

    Fortune House is the Best! Newly decorated, the food is excellent, the drinks are varied and inexpensive, and the service is efficient. In fact, unlilke others, they don't rush you. Sit for as long as you want. Not sure what's best or what to order? The owner is shy, if you engage her, she will be honest and help you. There are so many great choices on this menu. The dumplings are the best, the pancake is too(but not on Sunday), try the whole fish, anything in the XO sauce, sliced pork, etc. They are best with "non-American" Chinese food-be brave and try something different! Great place to go after the movie at the Brooklyn Heights Cinema. If you haven't tried it-go!
