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.

Bean Curd

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.

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.

Assortment of dim sum dishes

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.

Another great experience at this dim sum restaurant! Got here early evening and ordered some items from the regular menu and dim sum menu. Sooo good and consistent.

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.

Egg custard dim sum
Cilicia L.

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.

Alan H.

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.

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.

Weekday dim sum
Kara M.

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.

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.

My friend and I shared many plates! Maybe we ordered too much? Lol but we had some good leftovers. Staff was very nice and attentive. It's a big place and for a Wednesday night it was pretty slow. I have heard it gets busier/packed on weekends which makes sense because the food was 10/10. They don't have cocktails but they do serve beer and wine.

This was my first time here. Came with my Brother and Sister In Law to celebrate Father's Day. Unfortunately, my nephew was unable to join us. The ambiance is something you would expect a a family friendly establishment. Nothing fancy just a simple set up. When we arrived it was almost full to capacity. However, we did not have to wait long to get seated and to have our server take our order. We started off with the Pan Fried and Steamed Pork Dumplings. You get an order of six with each. Tried the Pan Fried first and added red chili sauce on the side. To say the sauce added a kick to the taste would be an understatement. I would have to say though both were delicious, I favored the pan fried versus the steamed. Something about the texture appealed to me more than the steamed. The Veggie rolls were spot on. Some of the best veggie rolls I have tasted. They were cooked to perfection with the right amount of crispiness and did not go soggy after sitting for a minute. The Live Double Lobster was something new to me. You can have it prepared with different styles. We chose the Typhoon shelter style. As you can see by the photo, that was a generous amount of lobster yet we managed to finish. Typhoon style originated in Hong Kong, known for its use of deep-fried garlic, chili, and black beans. It was savory and spicy, with a strong emphasis on the crispy, fried garlic. The next course was the Hunan Beef flavored with a spicy Hunan sauce that's sweet, savory, and has an umami flavor. The beef was cooked twice to enhance the flavor and tenderness of the beef strips. Though listed as a spicy item on the menu, I found it to be rather mild and not as spicy as I was expecting. It was the right amount of heat that it did not distract the palate from the savory essence as well. In closing, I would definitely visit again. The service was prompt. I really enjoyed how they placed our "checklist" of items and marked each off as each was brought to our table. I found New Fortune 2 to be reasonably priced and the portions generous enough that we had to take to go boxes. One of the best Chinese food experiences I have had here in Austin.

We were able to flag down servers to help us get an extra plate, tea cups, etc. Got a variety of dim sum classics: hargow (shrimp dumpling), siu mai, rice noodles, custard buns, chicken feet, chow fun, egg tarts, soy sauce noodles, charsiu bao, turnip cake My favorites are the siu mai, chow fun and custard buns! They also have non-traditional dim sum dishes such as soup dumplings, which actually originated from Shanghai. We got them and they were ok. We ordered a second time to get more custard buns but it seemed they ran out so it took some time for them to make them fresh. When they finally came, the buns were not smooth and it really looks like the custard was about to burst. Someone bit into theirs and the custard exploded onto their shirt. However, we all had a good laugh and still enjoyed the food. Have to have tea during dim sum so we also got our puer and chrysanthemum tea mix. Not sure if they usually charge for this, but we got it complimentary! Yay! If you are familiar with dim sum, then you know these are smaller dishes meant to be shared among the group! Everybody ate and was satisfied. Each person paid about $25 after tip! There's a designated parking lot with lots of spots.

Tom Yum Soup with Shrimp ($10): Very sour so I had to dilute it. They did give a lot of veggies and a good amount of shrimp though. However, I still recommend the tom kha soup over this one. Crispy Pad Thai ($22) + Shrimp ($2): Consistently good with any protein, but I think beef pairs the best. The pad thai was crispier this time too. Hu Tieu SG ($21) + Duck ($10): We went with the shrimp and pork belly soup option with extra serrano pepper and hu tieu kho sauce. This version is better than the Hu Tieu Kho, and the duck was a total game changer so I highly recommend adding it. Just know it runs on the blander side without the sauce so make sure you get that extra on the side. Filet Mignon Onion ($25): We got it extra spicy and requested medium rare.

We also shared an appetizer of the Szechuan Spicy Cucumber, which arrived as an incredible tower of cucumber that was both fantastic and delicious. I lowkey ate half of the tower.

I've seen reviews complaining about the price point, but you can't compare a wagyu steak to Texas Roadhouse, and you can't compare a sit-down Asian restaurant to a Chinese buffet. This is clearly a step above. You don't have to fully dress the part, but this is practically fine dining. Top tier service, top tier atmosphere, and top tier food. This isn't a casual noodle shop, buddy. Overall, it's an excellent experience and definitely worth the steeper price tag. I recommend Ling Wu if you understand that sometimes you have to pay more for a higher quality meal. If you're not that type of person, grow up, because you're missing out on some of the best Asian food Austin has to offer. RIYL: A great meal with a great atmosphere

The first thing I noticed when I walked in was the restaurant was completely full and customers were continuing to flow in.

The cumin seeds give it that signature earthy, aromatic flavor and you get a slight tingly numbing spice sensation from the chilis and peppercorn. The lamb is not overly gamey, but it still does taste like lamb so if you are not really a lamb fan, I'd choose something else. - Jumping Fish: A very popular dish! Tender white fish fillets that is so soft it melts in your mouth. It is in a flavorful oil and broth that is refreshing from the fresh jalapenos. It is a savory dish, yet still relatively mild. It commes with napa cabbage as well! This was my favorite dish and I loved the flavor combined with the white rice. - Mapo Tofu (Vegetarian): They have one with pork as well, but I got the vegetarian version. Silky soft tofu cubes in that signature mapo tofu sauce and numbing peppercorns. Despite the appearance of all the dishes, none of them were very spicy. Overall, a comforting soft, spicy, savory dish with a slight tingle. - Eggplant in garlic sauce: A deliciously sweet and umami garlic sauce. The eggplants could have been a bit more cooked through in my opinion though since it was still quite firm. I loved it still! Note that all the dishes to me were not spicy just had an underlying subtle spice or tingle (like a finishing flavor note if you will). Also, since it is sichuan the dishes are on the oilier side. You order with the cashier at the front and pay up front as well. Food comes out quickly. It is a small space with three rows of tables (maybe around 12-15 tables give or take), so it does fill up fast. I went at around 5:40 PM on a Thursday and there was no wait, but by the time we finished eating at around 7PM, the restaurant was full. House of Three Gorges was hyped up a lot on my social media feed and through word of mouth, so I came in with high expectations. Luckily, they did not disappoint.

Got this the other day and it was so good! Service was awesome also. I don't know the sweet lady's…read morename at the counter, but she deserves a raise. Virginia was the best Virginia that I never meet before. She has a friendly smile. You must request her when you go to Chinatown for the fantastic service from Virginia.

Such an absolute bummer. My family has been coming to…read moreChinatown for over 20 years and after our traditional Christmas Eve dinner we'll never be back. Absolutely insulting service, not because they were understaffed and in the weeds but because we were a family of five and only my wife was drinking while we were sandwiched between two tables that were going hard on the bottle service. They curtly took our order, dropped the food and we were never checked on again while our table filled with plates and our drinks needed refills (We had to flag someone down for chopsticks because they were so fast leaving after dropping the food). Then when they finally dropped our check, after we sat there and watched them ignore our table numerous times and considering just going straight to the front so we could leave, we went to settle up and I was entering our tip my son noticed that they had already autograted our check. For a family of five. No mention of this and we almost doubled tipped for absolute trash service. It seemed underhanded and added more insult to injury after such a mediocre experience. We used to think your rude waiters were novel and funny when the food and ambiance were fantastic but when the food quality drops, we all agreed the food was just ok, and we're treated poorly maybe we should have been paying more attention. It was a nice run Chinatown - my family has always loved you through the years, from the amazing Dim-Sum Sundays (pre-Covid) to our annual Christmas Eve dinner, but that was it. So long and goodbye.
