Pretty good food for reasonable prices. We each had one of the standard white people combos and they were both good. The Mongolian Beef is quite spicy. Service was excellent, and it was not very crowded. Recommended.

Very kind service, and attentive too (only one other party dining in so good service was expected). Nice and hot tea and our drinks were consistently topped up. The egg rolls are vegetarian and the red sauce that came with it was great! The pork wonton soup was spectacular. The orange chicken was rather bland; it could have used more sauce and more orange flavor. The chicken itself was lightly battered and crispy, which was good. The vegetables fried rice had a great amount of greens and eggs.. Super yummy!

My daughter and I were in Mount Vernon for a bead show and craving some lunch when, fortuitously, a delivery guy walked into the show carrying amazing-smelling Chinese food for some of the vendors. I asked which restaurant he was from, and he said "Fortune" at the same time the show cashier was loudly exclaiming "OMG they're the best Chinese food in the valley." She also mentioned they have the most amazing sizzling rice soup everrrrr. So, of course, we had to check it out. Located just off I-5 near the College Way exit, this is probably one of those restaurants you - like I - have driven past zillions of times and maybe never noticed. It's older, hasn't been remodeled in awhile, but still charming in an old school sort of way. Parking was plentiful, and we were quickly seated in a booth by the window. While the restaurant showed its age, it was also very clean. The service wasn't necessarily friendly, but not necessarily unfriendly either. We received water and hot tea, and then ordered. My daughter got Mandarin Chicken from the lunch specials menu, and I felt compelled to order the World's Most Amazing Sizzling Rice Soup. We also got some crab wontons to get us started. Our food arrived quickly, and it was all very good. The portions were huge, too. And I've never had a crab wonton with so much crab in it - they were clearly handmade and very tasty. My daughter enjoyed her meal, and there was enough left over to take home for dinner later. The sizzling rice soup was really good too! It was full of veggies, chicken, shrimp and (of course) hot, crunchy rice which our server poured into the soup right in front of me for the full "sizzle" effect. I honestly can't remember the last time I had sizzling rice soup, so I'm not sure if this is the Best On The Planet or not - but it was darn tasty and a hearty portion. Their prices were good, too. We got out of there for under $25 with full bellies and leftovers to take home. I noticed they have a lot of vegetarian options too. I'll definitely check this place out again!
