    It's very crowded when we got there at 12:30pm on Sunday, but we were a party of 2 so we were seated within 10 mins. The food is great as always

    Always enjoyed coming here, weekend dim sums are fantastic too! The food is great and authentic! I especially love the thinly sliced chicken breast!! Always feel like I am visiting Hong Kong again!!!

    Great dim sum, got seated right away on a Thursday right at opening. They offer 20% off on tuesdays/thursday which is also awesome! Everything came out very fresh and service was great. We need to come back for family style dinner.

    After a business meeting in the area, I decided to get food from New Fortune 2. The name was intriguing and was curious why it was called New Fortune 2 v 1. New Fortune 2 located Highway 620 is a rebirth of the original New Fortune restaurant, now rebranded with a "2" to mark its fresh start. According to my server New Fortune 2 gives classic Chinese flavors a twist. Chef William Wong is the menu master. While the building is not spectacular form outside except for the two golden lions, inside you get a different perspective. When I walked in I immediately noticed three tanks of live lobsters. They currently have a lobster special underway. I am generally not a fan of seeing seafood alive and then cooked for me afterwards. Other striking areas of the restaurant is the etched glass in very interesting patterns...quite beautiful. The restaurant is quite large with a private dining area. I decided to have a lunch special - sesame chicken. It came soup, rice and a veggie egg roll. The chicken was soft and flavorful. The rice was well seasoned with every grain separated...no clumping. I really enjoyed my meal except for the hot and sour soup as it was a little too vinegary tasting. The other parts of the meal was so overwhelming good, I decided to give grace on the hot and sour soup. I got my meal to go as I had more work to do. I will definitely consider returning to try other menu items.

    Austin's dim sum scene is growing which back in 2006 when I first moved to Austin, was hard to find. Then now fast forward to 2025, it's getting much better. Happy to see New Fortune moved locations from its previous one, love how plenty of parking is available. Pros: All the normal dishes are fresh and amazing. From each individual dumpling, to the soft taro cake, to the tangy and spicy dumplings, every dish was great. I was very happy to try all my favorites such as the bean curd, the beef tripe, all the dishes are a must try. Great chew on all dishes, beautifully created each dish, fast service, and attentive servers. Every dish was a 5/5, you will not be disappointed. Cons: I will say, I had the dimsum at the restaurant and left overs for dinner. I have a very strong lingering msg dry mouth. I ate the leftovers without soy sauce and I still have a strong dry mouth taste. I know it's msg and to me, it's tooooooooo much msg, to me, the flavors are soo great, they don't need msg. I probably drank 2 cups of water. The dishes are expensive, I mean to compare dim sum in Austin from Houston or Dallas, Austin is expensive. I get it, if you want it, you have to pay it and prices here are too high. I get it so I can justify it. Har Gow for $7 wow, that's a lot, normally it's $4.95 but it is what it is. Most dim sum dishes I had experienced in the past range between $4.95 to $7 but to see the pricing across the board on all dishes high priced, it's fine to eat and try once in a while. Some of the dishes came cold, most dishes I would expect to come hot but some dishes came out cold which was disappointing but dam it still tasted good. I wish 4-5 dishes I got were cold to hot. For ex: the soup dumplings came cold inside, the fried shrimp was cold, the spicy dumplings were cold. Beef tripe was cold. But it's fine to try for my first time. Let's hope the 2nd time I try will be hotter.

    Located right on the cusp of northwest Austin and Cedar Park, this newest dim sum spot satisfied my latest dim sum craving! The seating inside as well as the menu size isn't as big as the new dim sum restaurant in old Chinatown Austin (Tian Tian Golden Palace Seafood & Dim Sum), but I was pleasantly surprised our party of 3 arrived around noon on a Saturday and didn't have to wait for our seats. The second we sat down, the waiters rolled over their carts and we literally had food brought to the table within the first minute haha! In general though, none of the items we ordered exceeded my expectations. Again, they satisfied my dim sum craving but I was unfortunately not impressed by the flavors. I felt like the chicken feet and soup dumplings were a bit bland and some of the food items weren't as warm as I had hoped for. That being said, the service was quick and efficient today so I'd give my overall rating a 3.5/5.

    I think I've finally found a true authentic Chinese Food restaurant. For those of you who have been following me, you know I've been on a mission since 2019 to find a true authentic Chinese food eatery. I've had success with "Din Ho", and a few others traditional spots. While scrolling thru Yelp, I was attracted to the reviews of "New Fortune 2". Based on the reviews people were loving it. So we decided to give it a try. Arrived about 4:45 on a Thursday, seated immediately by "Eric", as there were only three other couples there. The set up is really nice. Tables are set rather close together so I can imagine when it's close to full occupancy it might be a bit crowded. Inside and outside the appearance is very unique. The interior is very clean, with an Asian theme. We ordered Orange Chicken, Combination Pan Fried Noodles with Beef, Chickenans Shrimp. We also had Pan Friend Pork Dumplings. I've been on a search for good Orange Chicken for years. My search is over. The Orange Chicken here is prepared perfectly. The balance of sweet and savory was perfect. We ordered it without the heat as my wife can't handle it. It was also served with a side of sticky rice. We got a fairly moderate portion of chicken, yet a small serving of rice in a little bowl. Could have used a second scoop of rice. The Pan Fried Pork Dumplings were delicious. Larger than most and packed with meat and flavor. The pork filling was tender and juicy. If I was hungrier I would have ordered more. I can't wait till I bring my friends and we sample more items on their vast menu. Apparently this is their second location. Glad to see they have expanded. Michael C. - Georgetown, Tx.

    Came here a month ago since there's not a lot of Dim sum here in the Austin area and per usual I'd have to say this is the Go to for Dim sum here. I went to the previous "New Fortune," and they are very similar, quite obviously, since they have the same ownership. My friend and I got here right when they opened on a Saturday morning, so there was not a long wait, and there was an abundance of food served on dim sum carts. We had to wave the service staff away since there weren't that many people compared to the amount of food being carted around. The dim sum here satisfies all of my cravings, especially all the dumplings (siu mai, har gow, soup dumplings, etc.). They also have great egg tarts, so much so that my friend ordered an additional set to take home. Whenever I get a dim sum craving this will be the place to go so we aren't driving all the way out to Houston.

    I am thankful that there's a dim sum place where you can get a cart service experience but I think this place is overhyped. The food was mid at best and sadly I have had better frozen dim sum. The soup dumplings were pretty good and I recommend going for that. Service was okay, I witness some tension between their own staff members.

    First round.

    12.25.2025. My husband and I have been here a few times and our most recent visit was on Christmas Day. New Fortune was recommeded by friends who lived in Cedar Park and Austin for awhile. I was quite surprised to see a line outside the door on Christmas Day. The space inside is bright, spacious, and clean with tables ready to host groups of 4 or more. As for cart service dining it was a good experience. Overall food quality is good. Highly recommend ordering veggies from the menu as dim sum is mostly yummy carbs and some protein.

    OVERVIEW: Great dim sum, excellent service, wide variety menu, and reasonably priced! We visited on a Thursday morning during their Tuesday/Thursday lunch special (20% off the entire menu, except for lobster and crab - as of 6/8/2025). Hot tea was also complimentary in the morning, which was nice. The location is a bit weird, tucked between a gas station and a boat dealer, but overall experience was great and I will revisit! QUICK FACTS: - Parking? Yes, their own lot with ample spaces. - Reservations? No, just walk in. There may be more of a wait on the weekends or during holidays. FOOD RATINGS: Overall, we enjoyed all of the dim sum we ordered minus the soup dumplings, which tasted like frozen Trader Joe's or Costco dumplings. The spicy wontons, shrimp rice rolls, har gow, and sticky rice were great! We ended our order with the sweet steamed egg custard buns and it was perfect.

    Michael L.

    THE BIG: Located in Cedar Park right across the street from Interstellar BBQ. Nice big open dining space with round tables. Plenty of parking in the lot. THE BLACK AND WHITE: The wife and I came here to try this spot since we heard from a bunch of people that this was the best spot in Austin to grab dim sum. We got here around 11am on a Sunday and it wasn't terribly packed. This is one of the spots that have carts wheeling around. Weeeee! We ordered a couple of dim sum dishes that included: shrimp har gow, shu mai, choong fun, egg tart, soup dumplings and bbq pork bun. The choong fun was decent. I typically judge a dim sum spot on their choong fun because it is very intricate to make (not too sticky or hard). Otherwise, service is solid albeit very slow when checking out. We didnt know whether to go up front or wave someone to check us out. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall the damage done for dim sum brunch was around $50 for six dishes including tip. One of the better dim sum spots here in Austin for sure.

    Egg custard dim sum

    We went here for lunch on Christmas Day. The place was packed! That being said, we were seated right away and offered the pork and shrimp dumplings, and were told they were the most popular choice. They were delicious. We also sampled the egg custard bao, and the dough was fluffy with a sweet and creamy custard inside. I ordered the Thai basil spicy shrimp as my entree. The dish was well balanced, and the shrimp and veggies cooked perfectly. The only negative note I have is that the salt and pepper Chilean sea bass fritters that my son ordered had bones in every piece which made them much less enjoyable to eat.

The standout was the shrimp pancake that had a really great texture and flavor. The snow crab ball had a strange texture with shrimp surrounding the snow crab claw. The Chinese Sticky Rice is always a favorite. Also ordered the Truffle Egg Fried rice and Birds Nest with Seasonal Vegetable. The Truffle rice is so flavorful like a flavor explosion in your mouth. The Birds Nest is made with fried potato shreds which contain the a variety of vegetables including cauliflower, peppers, mushrooms and asparagus. The nest is also edible and has a crunchy texture. The presentation of the food is amazing and everything came out hot and fresh. The flavors were on point, and you can tell there's attention to detail in the preparation. Service was attentive outdoors and the pacing of dishes felt just right for a relaxed brunch. This restaurant is truly a gem whether you come for brunch or dinner service. Will definitely be back.

Tables around us were open so I'm not sure what had them held up, and it could've been a one off, but definitely not ideal at this price point.

    This is definitely one of my favorite places in Austin for Asian food and soup dumplings…read more Definitely need to make a reservation because this place is small and always packed. When you arrive, everybody is so nice you give them your name and they get you seated right away. I ordered a drink called a signature tingling Daisy and it was so good. I definitely could've had so many but I was driving so you gotta pace yourself. We started off with the soup dumplings, which are just phenomenal. It's a must when you go. Also, for appetizers, we got the spicy cucumbers which were divine and a hot and sour soup, which was perfectly balanced and not watery. We also got a beef fried rice and let me tell you that rice is so soft and delicious. You literally dream about it the next day. I also got the pecking duck which is delicious there the skin is nice and crispy and the meat on it taste so good. We also got the Kung pow shrimp with cashews, which was delicious and the pieces of shrimp were gigantic. We also got the green beans which is were delicious. I love ordering green beans when they're cooked just like the ones I posted in the photo. Then for dessert, we got the chocolate mousse which is that little dog cake. I know it's so cute and they made it a little hard to eat because you feel bad in a weird sense. It was delicious now I will say when cutting it and realizing the inside had a raspberry filling, made it a little more crazy cause it looked like blood, but it was still so good. This place is definitely an awesome staple and a must visit when you're in town or just always go and have food there whether it's date night or friends catching up or anything in general even on your own.

This could have been my mistake but I don't remember any choice in the matter. The greeter wasn't very friendly and borderline surly when I asked for more details about how to not book the bar in the future. Didn't get any explanation but fortunately, we won't have to worry about that... The food was just awful. We ordered 3-4 types of dimsum (onion pancake, soup dumplings, chu shou, fried shu mae) and three entries (orange beef, eggplant and their take on ma pao tofu) for the best tasting experience. The curry sauce for the onion pancake was probably the most flavorful dish of the night sadly. The onion pancake was way way over fried-- hard as a rock. If that's their take on onion pancake... well, it's just wrong. The soup dumplings were passable but a bit doughie and the filling was full of a lot of noticeable coagulated fat -- not clear and broth-y, with light surface droplets of oil as all delicious broths. My wife enjoyed the chu shou -- I found the filling much too overcooked and tough -- difficult to eat with chop sticks. Like a tough, overcooked meatball. The fried shu Mae were just plain inedible. My wife and I each ate one and left the rest. The included sauce was basic and too heavy. And again, over fried. There was a huge delay between our apps and our mains, like 40 minutes or so. Various bar staff apologized. It wasn't a big deal, we were in a good conversation and they were super busy but our mains were not at all worth waiting for. Small portions. WAY over sauced. WAY too salty. WAY too sweet. No distinct flavors at all. The ma pao didn't seem to have any Szechuan pepper at all. How do you miss that ? The plating of the eggplant dish was really creative but I don't eat with my eyes and it came with no instruction -- my first bite was just flavorless steamed eggplant cube -- second was mixed with one note sauce. One of the better mains IMO but it was still gloopy and pretty gross. Wife did not enjoy it. The orange beef was essentially just six or seven cubes of tough, fatty beef covered in over-the-top bitter orange peel. We each had a cube and left the rest. Honestly, give me Panda Express any day over this abject failure of a restaurant. Austin needs more Chinese but if it's anything like this place, forget it. I'd rather spend a 4h round trip to Houston and go to even a mediocre Chinese restaurant than endure another meal at this place. What a waste of $165. Edit: I wish I was making this up but I literally had to pull over to throw up on the side of the road on the way home. The food did not sit well with me. I have no underlying health conditions, am not on any medicine that would have this as a side effect and only shared one beer with my wife. It was just a very, very, disappointing and gross meal.

    This might be the best dim sum in Austin now…read more I actually had never eaten at Shanghai having grown up in Austin. I didn't have their food until around COVID when we got dim sum to go a few times. I remember at that time thinking it was pretty unremarkable, and also quite expensive for dim sum. Fast forward to this year. I'm not sure if they have new ownership or new cooks, but the difference is night and day. I've been a couple of times now for dine-in in dim sum and each time was awesome. You can order off the menu or by QR code. They definitely focus on the classics but they're all executed really well. Standouts for me were the pan fried turnip cake, full of turnip and super sweet, the shrimp and leek pan fried dumplings, shrimp stuffed eggplant, and chili wonton. What makes them unique to me is that the food is all cooked to order and comes out hot and fresh. The fried items are crispy and hot and everything else you can tell just came straight from the kitchen. This avoids the one issue with carts which is that the food has been cooked who knows when and has just been sitting in a steam cart for an unknown amount of time. Also since you order off the menu, you can get exactly what you want instead of having to wait for a cart to come by. The service is always friendly and I've never had to wait to be seated, even on a weekend. If you haven't come here in awhile or written it off in the past, I'd encourage you to come and try it again. Right now it's a hidden gem but if more people realize how much better it is now, it might not be for long. Also bonus points for being a dim sum place that's not super far north like New Fortune 2 or Golden Palace.
