Fortune - Hammersmith and Fulham

I've had takeaways from here off and on over the past ten years. Quality has gone down a bit recently and it's always better and quicker to collect in person.

As we go into another Covid Lockdown, keep energized with a Hot-sour soup, and some Roast duck on noodles. Rather traditional Chinese food in in understated, casual, relaxing decor. Not Michelin-star stuff, but mainstream Chinese food, good portions, that 'd cost you double in SoHo. It 's easy to find; opposite West Kensington station, and Famous 3 Kings pub. Fortune is good luck.

We stopped here after a long day of touring London as it was close to our hotel. We ordered sweet and sour chicken and beef with vegetables. And fried rice. The staff is very friendly and the service was good. The food was ok. The rice was not what we know in the states for fried rice. It was just rice with and egg and maybe a green onion chopped in it. The meals were not large, but plenty with rice as well. Nothing was bad, just not outstanding. I probably would not recommend.

I had to call each time I was promised it was minutes away yet original delivery time was 19:57 delivery time 21:15

Unfortunately I had a very bad experience at Fortune Restaurant. Firstly, we asked for prawn crackers whilst we browsed the menu and he said that we had to wait until we ordered. After ordering a selection of starters and main courses, our prawn crackers arrived. What a disappointment they were. They actually tasted of wood as though they had been stored in a cupboard and when we asked when were they cooked, are they fresh? The gentleman responded and told us they batch cook them in the morning and just use them throughout the day/evening. Our starters arrived and everything seemed to be ok. Only fault there would have been the long wait between finishing our starter and receiving our mains. When the mains finally arrived; sweet and sour chicken, chicken chow mein, steamed vegetable dumplings and smoked shredded chicken. The sweet and sour chicken and chow mein seemed fine. However the dumplings tasted like cardboard and had a very strange texture and the smoked shredded chicken was inedible. It was rock hard and I did not even attempt to try this. We asked the gentleman to remove them from the bill and he did however we noticed all of the food tended to go cold very quickly. After leaving the restaurant, I was not impressed and it is not somewhere I plan on returning. Shortly after arriving home, I felt unwell and actually threw up. I am certain this is after eating at the restaurant. Overall, the restaurant was dirty and very out-dated. I would not recommend to anyone!!!!!!!!! P.S IT HURT ME TO EVEN LEAVE 1 STAR
