I've been living here for 4 years and haven't found a good Chinese spot until now. Fortune City has it all! Tasty food, reasonable pricing and quick delivery. My faves are the crab rangoons, beef on a stick and sesame chicken. read more

They are able to adjust dishes to less oil less salty for my preference. Very kind owner.

Fortune City is our go to takeout Chinese restaurant; the food is always delicious and the staff are always friendly.

Food was delicious today, thank you fortune city! Would definitely recommend the chicken broccoli lunch special combo! read more

Fortune City - Chicken broccoli lunch combo - Chinese Near Me - Towaco, New Jersey

Every delivery place in Lincoln Park stopped delivering to Montville so i hesitantly gave this place a try (I heard for the past three years of living in town to steer clear, but after trying the options in Boonton which were subpar we gave in). Delicious chicken rice soup (huge portion) and homemade (not pre bagged stale nasty ones) crunchy noodles. The beef on a stick is a small portion but delicious with no fat. Crab Rangoon is plump but ours were over fried and overloaded with onion. My husband liked his sesame chicken but also said they over did it with the onion on the fried rice. Better than most in the immediate area, will try again. read more

Fortune City - Best pork Dumplings ever!!! Couldn't wait to get to the house! - Chinese Near Me - Towaco, New Jersey

Ingredients were fresh. I felt that the food lacked spicing. There's a surcharge for using a credit card

Reliably good Chinese food! And very quick.

Ordered here for the first time a few weeks ago. Got the shrimp and broccoli extra spicy. Was excellent. Huge shrimp compared to other places and good service. Food seemed less greasy than other places. Will likely be ordering here more often. read more

Always our favorite Chinese takeout! Seriously the best in the area. Food tastes fresh and is non greasy! Always friendly people working! One of the best places close to home for takeout! We missed them temporarily when COVID initially hit but are sooo glad they're back! read more

I have been going to Fortune City for years. Their lunch menu runs from 11-3:30 pm and works for me because a 3:30 lunch would serve as both lunch and dinner. There are coupons right on the menu or you can print them out on their online website. an example of one of their coupon offerings is with a $25+ purchase you get a free egg roll or soda. They have coupons for a $35+, 45+ or $55+ purchase. The menu is extensive with red *'s for hot or spicy dishes. I have often order the Jumbo Shrimp with Garlic Sauce Lunch Special for $6.25. For an extra .50 cents I also order the egg drop soup. The drop soup has plenty of eggs and not watery whats-so-ever which is important to me. You get three Jumbo Shrimp, plenty of assorted vegetables and a large amount of rice. We all know why you get a lot of rice which is why I'm not giving fortune City five stars. You get a choice of fried rice, white rice and brown rice.The Garlic Sauce is to die for. The portion size is very filling and I usually have left overs for part of another lunch. The business is located in the Red Barn strip mall. The young lady behind the counter speaks very good English and is pleasant to deal with. They also have free delivery with a $15+ purchase although I have never tried it. Fortune City is a solid well run business that is closed Monday and open till 9 pm on Sunday and 10 pm Friday and Saturday. read more

I am always on the lookout for good Chinese food. I hit this place on the way home one evening from Boonton. Ordered basic lo mein and scallion pancakes. One thing I've learned is that scallion pancakes are "usually" a good litmus test for good Chinese. The scallion pancakes here were unfortunately not very good. The dough was stale and it was very difficult to eat them. I ordered chicken lo mein and it was lacking vegetables and extremely dry. They also charged me $20 for the two which is a bit on the high side of prices. Had they been good I wouldn't have cared. Overall, this was a very disappointing stop and food wasn't that good. I won't be back. I know it's a family owned restaurant and times are tough but have to be honest as to the food quality to the readers. read more

Best Chinese food around! We searches high and low for a go-to Chinese restaurant and this was perfect. We always got the same order: Sesame chicken, boneless spare ribs, shrimp and broccoli, crab Rangoon, and pork fried rice. Fantastic. read more

Been living in or around Montville for over 30 years. This is an excellent spot for quick takeout Chinese food. Friendly folks running the place, and the food is delicious. No complaints - it's what you'd expect, and it checks the boxes. Will likely return try to the lunch menu. read more

Really great place to eat. The owners daughter (whom I assume is the daughter) is extremely helpful and is very considerate when we sat down to dine in. It's not some extravagant Chinese place but it's a place to definitely get good home cooked Chinese food. You can really feel the effort put into the food cooked. read more

Weve been ordering from Fortune City for about 20 years, so you could imagine our disappointment when they temporarily shut down due to Covid. We just had our first meal back since they opened, and can happily say that they did not disappoint. This family-run restaurant is very consistent and exceeded our expectations yet again. We'll be back next Sunday! read more

I ordered Kung Pao chicken and chicken fried rice and an egg roll . The Kung Pao Chicken was NOT breaded . It was just diced skinless chicken. Everywhere I go it's breaded.... I checked many recipes and it should be breaded/coated. There was an excessive amount of mini corn, water chestnuts but very little chicken. The chicken fried rice tasted like it was left out all day. Egg roll was decent. I'm not the complaining type of customer but they could have done much better. Girl behind counter was very friendly. read more

Fortune City is the best Chinese restaurant by far! Big portions of tasty food for amazing prices, speedy delivery, and very kind and considerate staff! My favorite place for comfort food read more

i guess i won't be ordering fron them anymore!!!! 1- their prices have gone up and 2- they now only have free delivery after 5pm!!!! i need my order delivered before that!!!!! i love their food, but since all these changes have been made -- sorry guys!!!! read more

The woman at the counter has the sweetest smile and countenance, and great English skills as a bonus, so the ordering is easy and very pleasant. The chefs jumped into action right away, and you can see them clearly in an open, clean, modern kitchen. She brings the food out to you with that same great smile. The food is heaped up high on those plastic plates, comes with everything you might need on the tray - no hunting for napkins or beginning for duck sauce. Every bite is delicious. My son had the pork lo mein combination platter. I had the typical gringo General Tso's chicken combination platter. The place was quiet, and when there were no orders coming in for a short time, the staff didn't get loud but kept the place peaceful for enjoying dinner. When you see hard work combined with care for the customer, these days that is something to cherish. This was our first time there but first of many. read more

Best Chinese food in the area! Been going to Fortune City for years, family owned, customer friendly. Good ppl, good food. Highly recommend their AMAZING hand-made MSG free dumplings, nothing like those machine-made crap from other places. Always fresh. It's a must-order appetizer. Also their General Tso's chicken with orange sauce, worth every bite. read more

Having recently moved to Montville, what is the first thing we look for? Post office, bank or movie theater? Nope, good Chinese restaurant. So this place was five minutes away and decided to try it. Just like marrying a woman who reminds you of your mother, it was a mistake! Food was below average and nothing was even notable enough to mention, like my mother in law. It is the typical take out/delivery place that you don't want to go to. If the food was even decent I would not be so harsh, but the food had no flavor and no appeal to it at all. Save your money and avoid this place. If you read your fortune cookie it will tell you to go to Number One Wok on 46 instead. read more

Been eating take out from here for years and have never gotten a bad meal. Favorite go to place for local Chinese take out. Can use coupons on menu for free soup or egg rolls for next order depending on price of order. Prices are decent if not a little better than others in area. read more

I've been eating here for years and I have no idea why anyone would give this place a bad rating. Great food, great people. Very lucky to be five minutes from such a great Chinese place when I used to have to drive almost an hour out of my way for good Chinese food. This place is the best. read more

Yikes, wish I would've read the other reviews before I picked up food last night. Luckily, I found no maggots. Actually, I thought it was pretty decent. The shrimp lo mein was tasty, however the shrimp egg roll was not good. When I bit into it, I could see that the shrimp were not deveined, gross. Also tried the pepper steak, it was enjoyable. Not chewy and the sauce was not congealed, so that's a plus. There was a good amount of green peppers/onions also, which I like. I hate when I order General Tso's and there's like 2 pieces of sad broccoli, total. I didn't feel the need to add soy sauce for flavor. Not the best Chinese I've ever had, but DEFINITELY not the worst either (cough cough, Golden China in Pequannock.) read more

Haven't ordered them for over a year. Last time I order three items two were wrong and when I called back they told me I ordered wrong there was no problem. I don't eat beef so those words would never come out of my mouth. I would never order two beef items! So I stopped ordering from them. Who tells a customer they ordered two items wrong???? It was late and I was starving, ordered one entree and asked for extra spicy. Picked up order asked for hot mustard was told to take a hot sauce packet they don't have it. Food was bland and not spicy at all, good thing I had some leftover hot mustard from my usual place. It was late and I was the only there so how could you not make one item right?. Once again I did not receive what I ordered. Save yourself a headache and some bland food and drive another 10 minutes and go somewhere else that has hot mustard! read more
