There are many reasons that I got to this number. From the poor customer service when picking up the food. And hearing a interaction with another customer who wished them well and said sincerely kind thanks to them. As the man walked away I heard the females making fun of him.. I read big portions not true The soup had zero flavor I was shocked my husband had a different soup and that as well had no flavor. The main lunch specials the Sweet and sour was meh.. the chicken was under the rice and the sauce was on the side . Did enjoy the almonds but sad at over all. We live in town and have eaten at all the pleased in town more then once. I will we come back no. Safeway there food tasted better and the customer service is nicer as well. Sad really truly sad. read more

I'm giving it a two purely because of the customer service at this place. There's a lot of Chinese food options here in Sequim and Port Angeles. The food is pretty good at fortune star, definitely a little pricier than the majority of restaurants like this one around the area. I'd come here again maybe once a year for their shrimp dumpling, but only as take out. When we went to leave the restaurant, our waitress (who had a pretty sour attitude from the beginning) decided to follow us outside with our receipt and tried to convince us to leave a tip. I'm normally a decent tipper, I do the 10-20% if I feel service is good. read more

Fortune Star - Chinese Near Me - Sequim, Washington

The worst service I've ever had here. We went at 4:30 on a Saturday and we're the only customers in the restaurant . The host at the front desk (owner) did not even acknowledge us, a lady was pouring waters at a big table then motioned for us to come over(without saying anything). Again nobody spoke to us. We decided to leave and I advised the host(owner) on the way out that he should actually acknowledge people...his response was to shrug his shoulders. I will no t be returning. read more

My 2-star review is due to the change in service and lack of it when it comes to boxing up leftovers. When I started going here a couple years ago, usually during the lunchtime, the waitress would take my plate of leftovers and scrape them into the little Chinese food to-go container right there at the table. She did it so beautifully too and with ease, never making a mess; I really wondered how she did it so well, but maybe standing helps. Now, the past few times I've eaten there they've handed me the to-go boxes with the bag for me to box the leftovers myself. The boxes are not big containers, but the cute little Chinese food to-go boxes, which makes getting half a plate of slippery noodles into it a challenge that gives me anxiety while I anticipate a mess, and it doesn't make the dining experience end in as much joy as it used to. Pardon me if I don't want more work when dining out, especially when they didn't do that before, but the bar is lowering on the service standard and I don't like that. Is this what $11/hr minimum wage gets me as the customer who wants to enjoy one meal out during the week without being given more work to do for my meal? Exactly what more is being required of minimum wage employees in Washington State now, since they all got raises...anything? Ultimately, this is a sad statement on American business at the micro-economic level and that's why it is so concerning to me, because it is happening where I live and in the businesses I patronize. I want service, not just the good food, which the food is great so I have no complaints about the food or the dining atmosphere. This is a service issue to me because the service has gone down while the paying rate for staff has gone up; I don't think that's good sign and it shouldn't go unnoticed. Granted, for all I know there could be some health code that mandates servers not box up the leftovers; if that is the case, that is only a detriment to the business because now they provide less service for more money and it leaves me disappointed as the paying customer who wants service. And maybe it was just a personal waitstaff issue; some of them box food and some of them don't, but that only leads to inconsistent service which isn't good either. Whatever it is, it should be addressed so the customer doesn't have to do more work. I'll go back because I love the food and the decor, it's a pleasant and relaxing place to dine; the staff is nice, quick to greet and seat, and fast with food; just be forewarned that the service has changed, based on my own experiences in dining here as a local anyway. Thank goodness they have take-out! read more

Fortune Star - Fortune Star Chinese Restaurant in Sequim; indoor decor scenery filtered snapshot - Chinese Near Me - Sequim, Washington

For such a small city as Sequim to be honored by hosting such a wonderful restaurant is rare, indeed. Simple, yet lovely decor. Service is courteous and very fast, but the food is Oh My wonderful. Some of the best I've tasted in years. Traditional yet truly gourmet. We will put this place on our map of places to return to again and again. read more

I had a great meal here - chicken lo main and hot and sour soup. I ordered by phone and my food was ready quickly, it was very tasty and they were open when others had already closed - the staff were friendly and I look forward to coming back! read more

My personal favorite Chinese in Sequim. We love the mu shu vegetables, and there are quite a few unusual items on the menu you won't see anywhere else. (Spicy Pickled Cabbage Fish Soup, anyone?) Portions are beyond generous. Never had anything here that disappointed, but then we've mostly been ordering oddball dishes and staying away from the standard combo dinners etc. read more

Only Chinese place open tonight and glad it was. I ordered the vegetarian spring rolls, steamed dumplings, and the Honk Kong style chow mein. Star of the evening? Chow mein. Steamed dumplings were handmade and pretty good but I like a little thinner wrapper. Still a good time. The spring rolls were pretty good as well. I think next time the chow mein and different appetizers for variety. read more

House special fried rice was amazing, it was very fluffy and fresh, not at all oily or over fried.. Kung pao chicken was perfect Hotsour soup, oh boy so fresh and tasty that I stopped to write this on yelp as me and my girlfriend battled over who got the next spoonful. read more

Fortune Star - House special rice Kim POW chicken Hot sour soup mmmm - Chinese Near Me - Sequim, Washington

I went in for a quick lunch and paid the rest of the day. The food was overly greasy and garlicky. I think the mess had been sitting on the stove all day. Service was prompt. I felt like it was overpriced for lunch. I had chicken chow mien and scallion pancakes. Bill was over $30 with tip. Will keep looking for a tasty Asian restaurant in this area. read more

Wonderful place. I have known the owners there for years and they serve good quality food.

We are recent transplants to Sequim, we are slowly moving through the Chinese Restaurants looking for a gem or gem in the rough. We ordered the following: House Chow Mein Orange Chicken Spring Rolls House Pork Fried Rice Egg FU Yung Pork Baby Bok Choy Wife is deathly allergic to Shrimp, House Chow Mein came with Pork and Shrimp "didn't see that in the menu, could have been catastrophe. All the dishes were mostly breading, Orange chicken had almost not chicken. Egg Fu Yung was all breading not sure there was really any egg. Spring rolls were edible. Bok Choy, in theory healthy was covered in some sore of fat. The place looks really nice, the people were very nice, polite and professional. Wish I could rate them higher. Food was subpar, too bad looked like a great place to eat. Next! read more

Corn in egg drop soup, yuk. For some odd reason this has become a thing at a few chinese restaurants, I have no idea why, if I wanted corn soup I'd buy a can of it. The impressions & notes of the rest of the meal as follows. Cold steamed gyoza, tasty hot egg roll, bland overcooked almond chicken, good fried rice. Stale soft fortune cookie even, Wtf? Poor service, never once checked on me, She even forgot requested chopsticks. Never returning unless no other option, which luckily there's several nearby. read more

Been going here since I was a kid, the staff is generally nice and the food is amazing, I love it he sticky rice and pickle cabbage soup

Really great place!! Made a stop on our way back to Olympia. The decor was nice..service was great and the food was delicious. It's a TON of food for the money and it's great! Also all the dishes are beautiful..will stop whenever we go back! read more

Favorite Chinese place in Sequim. Good food, good atmosphere, good service. Never a long wait.

Been here 10 times and always loved it. The last time I went on 1/2/20 the waitress actually took an extra egg roll and dumpling off our platter by spooning the food we could keep onto my moms plate. Apparently we had received an extra. I couldn't believe my eyes I have never seen a waitress do this!!!! Then a few moments later that same food was served to the table behind us. Disgusting!!!!!!!!! What food are they recycling in this restaurant??? I loat my appetite and now will be breaking my habit of going here for Chinese and trying something else in the area. The whole incident was almost laughable ... I mean the food had been on our table for 10 minutes before she took away to serve to another table. also the rest of food wasn't as good as usual but I'm not sure if that was compounded by incident. They should make an comedy skit about an incident is so absurd! read more

The restaurant was really good the food was delicious we ordered the schezwuan eggplant. Beware when you order the extra spicy it really is very spicy. The portions are pretty good size and for the price it's pretty inexpensive. The service was really really good .I frequently found at other restaurants when you make special request you usually have to remind them more than once. But our waiter remembered all the instructions once and was very diligent in following up with us, the service was awesome and we will definitely be back read more

See all

This is the best Chinese food on the peninsula and possibly in the entire state of Washington. The owner is always so friendly and always make sure that everything is gluten-free when I order. Everything I've ever had here is delicious. My favorite is the nine flavor tofu. read more

I won't say that I am a Chinese food expert but I have had a lot of bad Chinese food and do consider myself somewhat of a Chinese food snob....I tend to be more picky than most people I know. That being said this place was one of the best Chinese restaurants I have ever had. Their food was outstanding. Even both of my kids loved it. We had their pork fried rice which is easily a meal by itself. We also had Cripsy Sesame Chicken and the Dry Wok Tossed Green Beans. All three dishes were outstanding. You know your food was amazing when you are completely full but still want to eat. Highly recommend this place to anyone and everyone. My only disappointment is that I dont live in Sequim and can enjoy their food on a regular basis. You can bet if I am back in the Port Angeles area, I will be stopping here again! read more

You enter this restaurant through a common lobby area which is a little odd but the restaurant itself is nicely furnished. Friendly efficient staff. The chicken in garlic sauce was delicious. Nice fresh flavor with crisp vegetables. The nine flavor beef was a disappointment. The texture of the meat was mushy and the dish would be improved with addition of vegetables and a little less meat. Prices reasonable. I would try it again when visiting. read more

We picked up our take out order of 3 entrees and rice. The bag must've weighed well over 5 pounds! The food was hot, good, nothing fancy, but yummy and filling. Staff wore masks. The tables didn't seem spaced well apart for social distancing so I was glad we were eating out of the restaurant. read more

With several other good restaurants in town it's a bit hard for me to say this but Fortune Restaurant is the best. And this is because our experience is perfect every single time we come in. My husband and I are Never disappointed with both the amazing dishes we love and the attentive service. Every time. Huge Bonus is that they have a great selection of vegan options! So glad to find this local restaurant. We'll be lifelong patrons. read more

I am giving this restaurant one star for the food and that's it. I was taking my daughter out for a nice dinner and suggested we try Fortune Star. It was the most unfriendly restaurant experience I have ever had. The owner & the young woman server don't smile or greet you and barely acknowledged us during the meal. The unhappy server came & took away plates with soy sauce on them not long after they had been set down without asking us if we were going to use it & I didn't like that. I thought the food was good and that's why I gave it 1 star. The bill was not quite $50 for our two combination plates and I handed the server a $10 bill and got no "thank you", smile, or anything. I went to pay the bill with a bank card & I put a zero where the tip should go & I told the owner I had already paid the server with $10 cash. He gave me my copy of the receipt & we left. My daughter had barely started the car & noticed that the owner had not only left the restaurant but was standing out of a back door to the little strip mall where the restaurant is located inside. He seemed to be looking at our car so my daughter rolled down her window & asked if something was wrong. He questioned that we had not left a tip! Again, I yelled out the window of the car that I had given the server a $10 tip & the owner asked if I had left it on the table. Again, I told him I had handed the girl the $10 bill. If other people had been around when this "accusation" had occurred I would have been very upset and mad & probably would have stomped out of the car on the very cold, wet night & told the owner off to his face. Apparently, from all of the many, many bad reviews of this restaurant & how the owner badgers people over tipping it's surprising anyone goes there. I will not be returning and will continue to frequent David's Family Taqueria nearby where the staff is friendly, the food is great, and they appreciate their customers!! Enough said! read more

Bad from the start. They tried to get us to order take-out, and seemed disappointed we dined-in. They took the order of the 4 people who came in long after the two of us did. They never checked back, or filled our waters. They brought our check while we were still eating, and didn't offer dessert. They took our credit card without removing the dirty dishes we had stacked and put at the end of the table. Price was average. Food was ok, not bad. Won't be back. read more

This is my hands down favorite for Chinese food on the Peninsula. I have not had anything I didn't love. The decor and ambiance is very calm an soothing. read more

We love the freshness of the food and the service with a smile. We appreciate them not using msg. Thanks guys!!

Divine as usual. Great Shanghai Noodles and Beef With Ginger and Onions. The service was polite and quick. The dinner house is immaculate. The food was fresh and hot. Super! read more

Fortune Star - Gingered Beef with Brown Rice. Delish - Chinese Near Me - Sequim, Washington

So Iv loved this restaurant for years but a week ago I parked in the parking lot to pick up my to go order and I noticed one of the chefs was outside smoking but also looking around towards anyone as if something was happening. My car was off I stayed calm and still and then witnessed him lifting his white chefs apron to be able to pee right outside the kitchen door. Then zipped his pants up ( and I'm HOPING he washed his hands when he went back in the building. And that was that. I'm beyond appalled bc this restaurant has nice bathrooms so for any kitchen staff to think that pissing outside the kitchen door is ok is beyond me . I will never order from them again. read more

Excellent meal! I had the jade scallops and everything was cooked to a T. The fried rice was a little extra but I highly recommend as it was delish. Huge portion, so I'll be having the rest tomorrow. I'm thinking this might be the freshest and most delicious Chinese meal I've ever had! read more

Ended up here because some of the other Chinese restaurants in town were closed for some reason on a Monday. When we walked in the place looked really fancy so I thought it was going to be expensive,but it was around the same price as what we paid in Forks for a bit lesser quality. Ordered the sesame chicken,it didn't have that gloppy sauce that most places have so that was a plus also... read more

Excellent fresh food! Spicy 3 stars is not too hot. Delicious meals always please. Favorites: Mongolian beef and Cashew Prawns.

Went there on two separate occasions, ordering different menu items both times. The food is very bland. Will not be going back

Consistently the best Chinese in the area, fresh high quality ingredients, very good sized portions, prompt service for take out, yum! Slightly higher priced than local competition but way bigger portion and better ingredients . read more

We love Fortune Star! Owners are always very kind and polite! Food is fresh, hot and tip top on flavor and presentation!!! We've been customers for years and even going back to visit now we always make sure to stop by at least once or twice! Thank you!! read more

Fortune Star stayed open throughout the pandemic for take out. There was no drop in quality. Still by far the best Chinese food on the Olympic Peninsula. Staff is friendly and efficient. Our most recent dinner, after the re-opening, was June 19, 2020. The food remains unbeatable! read more

Each time I go here I seem to have issues. Most with getting my meals. Recently a large party of ours ordered and they forgot drinks and appetizers of ours. Last night, it took 20 minutes to get one spring roll, and then when my friends meal came, mine was no where to be found. After about 7 minutes of waiting, I asked the manager if my meal was coming out and he said he was going to check on it (after mentioning "tomorrow" in a joking way. After going to the lobby for 5 more minutes, he finally headed to the kitchen and came back and said "1 minute". Each time I have had an issue there is never any "sorry" or "apologies". Waiting for more than10 minutes while your friends waits to eat with you is nonsense. The food is fine, but its not great. In my opinion, if the food is not worth dealing with bad customer service, I wont be back. read more

I got the Buddha's surprise a couple of weeks ago and it was really...really good. Lots of fried tofu, a great mixture of veggies, and a nice little bit of sauce. Yesterday it was like an entirely different dish. Just a couple of small pieces of tofu and 90% of the veggies were broccoli. It was awful. read more

Love their Hot and Sour Soup! Service is always great and food is always delicious. If you like Egg Foo Young, this is the place to go. Too many great dishes to mention. Just go. read more

Fresh Fresh Fresh ! We ordered the Wok Grean Beans, Twice Cooked Pork, Fragrance Prawns, Mongolian Chicken and for the one Veg-Head at our table Broccoli in Garlic Sauce with extra Mushrooms. All were wonderful!. They gladly do Gluten Free, Brown Rice. Limited Beer & Wine choices. Friendly prompt service. read more
