We have been to many Chinese Restaurants throughout California. Only ordered two dishes; Wor Won Ton Soup and House Chow Mein both dishes had lots of flavor, vegs, and so much meat in the Chow Mein, and Soup with many won tons in the soup. Great food for the price and good size portions. The only downside I live 4 hours north of Fortune Cookie Rest. read more

Orange chicken a little on dry side. Mushroom chicken is delicious. Rice is a little smoky tasting. Chow mein is good as well as broccoli beef. read more

We stopped here for lunch before heading to Sequoia National Park. We ordered from the lunch menu- beef lo mein, mixed vegetables with shrimp, chicken and broccoli, and Mongolian beef- everything was delicious. The portions were large and very reasonably priced. The service was great. We were happy to have found this restaurant. read more

Best Chinese food in Exeter. If you're in the area and craving chinese food, I recommend this place.

I wish I could give 10 stars---this place has some of the best Chinese food that I have ever had. And the service is impeccable. It is located in a little strip mall and on the outside, it is nothing special, but walk inside and you will be greeted with a happy welcome by one of the two servers. They make their own chili sauce and hot mustard and both of these are so good and smoky. We almost always order the potstickers (you can get them pan-fried or fried) and they are so good: they have so much ground pork and spices inside and we crave them. We have had the Mongolian beef, cream cheese wontons (so good!), honey shrimp (loved it), sweet & sour pork, and a few other dishes--all are incredible! Try this place--you won't be disappointed! read more

The people are very nice there. Awesome atmosphere and very good food at a reasonable price.

Food is good and prices are more than fair. I had the beef chow mein and it was more than enough with a tad of spice added to it. Staff was friendly but don't judge its restaurant, try the food you'll thank me later. On a side note be real careful with the sriracha, the beef chow already comes a bit spicy. I had to add a bit of soy sauce because the chow mein was kind of dry but it had good flavor. read more

Best Chinese food in the area! I brought my team here to celebrate a birthday and everyone was thrilled. The food was fresh and very flavorful. I've been back 3 times in the last week! read more

Best place in town for Chinese food. Love the homemade mustard sauce. I always ask for extra spicy and they don't disappoint. Highly recommended! read more

I really really want to like this place. We've tried it three or four times over the course of the last seven years. They are very friendly. However, their food lacks flavor, which I find almost incomprehensible for a Chinese food restaurant. Even the Kung Pao chicken was flavorless. Sad to say we won't try it again. Mandarin house is way better. read more

Ever since moving to Farmersville, this is a fan fave in my family. We were very loyal to Canton's in Visalia for years, but Fortune Cookie is honestly taking the spot as our favorite. Worth a try! read more

Blah barf literally. My wife threw hers up within two hours, I felt queazy for the rest of the day. I threw out what was left, and we hadn't eaten most of it. We ordered a combo F and chicken chow mien, paid about $20. Absolutely 100% will never eat here again. read more

Recently relocated to Exeter and had a craving for Chinese Food. Porterville's Asia Garden use to be the spot, that was before the quality of their food degraded. Searched on yelp for the nearest location and boy and behold this location was right around the corner. We ordered the beef and broccoli, kung pao chicken, fried rice and vegetable chow mein. Yes alot of food for two people but so worth it. We ordered take out and had alot of left over. The quality of food was delicious and prices were reasonable. Now I crave this place once a week. The location is located in the Me & Ed's shopping center next to Burger King and across from SaveMart shopping center. read more

This place has the best Chinese food in my opinion. I will not eat Chinese food anywhere else. I love this place. Service is friendly and always very hot when I get takeout. Price is very fair also. read more

Fortune Cookie Chinese Restaurant - Spicey Pork Chops and 50/50 Cjow Mein $ Fried Rice - Chinese Near Me - Exeter, California

My client wanted to drive to Panda Express in Visalia. We were in Exeter. I suggested Fortune Cookie. We ordered chicken teriyaki rice bowls. They were awful. The breaded teriyaki chicken was dry. The carrots cut in big chucks that were too big too eat and were still raw. I'm pretty sure the chicken was out of a precooked bag like Tyson. It wasn't homemade for sure. I will not be returning. I supported them during Covid and was always pleased but now I'm no longer going to support small businesses that don't care about the food they're putting out. Exeter is full of places to eat that don't care about the food they're serving or preparing for their community that supports them. There's only a couple of restaurants in the Exeter area that still care. read more

We visited about 1 pm on a weekday, and each had a lunch special: kung pao chicken and fried fish. lunches come with soup, rice or fried rice, and chow mein with soft or crispy noodles. The soup was quite good, rice and fried rice were both typical--decent, not exceptional. We tried both the regular and crunchy noodle chow mein, and found the crunchy noodle version was much preferred: it had less noodles, but plenty of cabbage and bean sprouts that were quite good. We both liked the fried fish very much, and both thought the kung pao chicken was decent but over sauced. All of the ingredients seemed fresh and well prepared, and service was quick and friendly. And portions were more than generous--we really could have shared one lunch, maybe with an appetizer or soup. At $11 each, the lunch specials are an excellent value. read more

We try it for the first time and it was more then what we expected the food was a large portion and really good and the staff was great

Ima keep it short and sweet. The food is quality especially for the prices. Better then all Chinese food places in Visalia. I highly recommend the orange chicken, they give great portions for the quality of the food. read more

Best Chinese take out we've had! We love this place. Egg foo yung is the best, We also had pork chow mien and Kung pao chicken and were very happy with everything. Go here! You won't be disappointed. This is our go to whenever we want Chinese for sure! read more

Huge portions, great value after leaving sequoia backpacking. Great service too - everyone was so nice

very good food. I always get the house special chowmein and love it. Also have very good egg rolls and pot stickers, as well as their Thai iced tea. read more

Kind of hidden but a great Chinese place for the Central Valley. Staff (owners?) are very friendly and attentive, sat us immediately and took our order within 5 minutes. We ordered the lunch Mongolian beef and F. Combo (sweet & sour pork, fried shrimp, pork egg roll, fried won ton, fried chicken wings, paper wrapped chicken, almond chicken, pork chow mein, &, pork fried rice). Plus ordered a side of egg rolls (thought they'd be small, nope! Decent size). The amount of food for the price is amazing. What I loved about the food was the sweet & sour was not sickeningly sweet, it had just the right amount of sweetness. Nor was anything too salty. I've found overly sweet & too salty seems to be a common problem for Chinese restaurants in this area, thankfully not this place. The Mongolian beef also wasn't too sweet or spicy. We didn't have to add soy sauce to any of the items as they were already well seasoned complimenting the vegetables & meats nicely. The veggies were fresh and not over cooked. The hot tea served is oolong, my favorite with a Chinese meal. Definitely coming back to try other menu items. read more

Fortune Cookie Chinese Restaurant - Mongolian Beef. "F" combo - Chinese Near Me - Exeter, California

Ok, so...1st off, it is under new ownership! 2nd...never in my life did I imagine that I would say "I just had the best WonTon of my life!"....But, here I am screaming it! I have never liked them due to the oily, greasy yuk that I had been given for my short 45 years of life! These wontons are nothing close to the oil bath that the u typically get everywhere else you have ever gone to for Cantonese/Chinese Food! I will order an appetizer of Wontons from now on. NOW....the fried shrimp, chicken wings, egg drop soup, sweet & sour pork, fried rice, almond chicken, pork chow mein & paper wrapped chicken I ordered were all fresh & so good! 5 star for the above. I give just 3 stars for the egg roll & potstickers. The potstickers are solely fried now, I believe, then steamed in the container. I prefer the traditional potstickers, steamed & fried on 1 side version. (neither the egg roll or potstickers were all that impressive). Also the dipping sauce for the potstickers was just ok. I wish they made their own hot mustard as well. I dont care for packet hot mustard. Otherwise, it was very, very good & I highlyrecommend that you go eat here! read more

Freshest Chinese food I've ever eaten! Fast and friendly service too! Spicy fish is a big hit with our family.

Ordered the war wonton soup. It was a good portion of chicken, wontons, a few shrimp, tasty veggies and the broth was good tasting.

Love the food and atmosphere. Service is fast and friendly. One star less because lettuce in fried rice is a no.no for me. read more

Fortune Cookie Chinese Restaurant - Chicken Chop Suey with Price or date tag. - Chinese Near Me - Exeter, California

We went here about 10 days ago (from Porterville) to try their food for an upcoming family dinner.... Chinese food had been requested and the place that we normally go to here in town is not good anymore. We were very impressed with the food, the wait staff, and most of all the cleanliness of the restaurant. It is really hard to find clean and well maintained restaurants anymore, and this one definitely was clean and well maintained. Fast forward a week, and it was time to order the food for our party of 10 to bring home for our family celebration. I called the day before to place the order and the staff member that was taking my order was very sweet and was recognizing that I may have been ordering too much food, so she asked if she could have the chef call me back in a while to help me with the amounts that I would need. Wow! I was so impressed.....so a little while later the chef called me back and we got the order placed and he gave me our total, and he told me the food would be ready at the time that I needed it the following day. My husband arrived a few minutes early in case the food was early so that it wouldn't sit and get cold. He was told it would be ready shortly, and sure enough, RIGHT AT our arranged time, our food was brought to the front, and even with a 25 minute drive home it was hot, still crispy and DELICIOUS!!!!! Service 5 stars Food 5 stars Cleanliness 5 stars Helpfulness in catering order 100 stars!!!!!! We plan to make this a monthly lunch date, and will absolutely order for family dinners again! THANK YOU Fortune Cookie! read more
