fortune palace restaurant in Wigan

After reading the reviews we ordered a takeaway. The restaurant looks nice and was fairly full so very promising. However our food was poor considering the price they charge. Both types of ribs (salt and pepper, plum sauce) were tasteless and the meat was quite solid. The shredded duck chow mein, was chunks of duck that seemed to have all of the flavour boiled out, on top of boiled cabbage, on top of bean sprouts, on top of dry super noodles. The crispy beef was like rubber. Very disappointed and will not return.

Lovely restaurant food was very quick and very hot, would consider returning

Staff are amazing and give excellent service, and their food is top tier.

It's obvious they have their regulars there who are offered a Bailey shot and the not so often regulars get a toffee (filling pullers). 😉

Came here for a meal and was not disappointed. The menu is vegetarian friendly and delicious. Generous portion sizes. Looking forward to my next visit.

1st time been here will be going again

Absolutely awful food from start to finish. Everything was so greasy, tasting, even the soup! The prawn crackers tasted of fat, and the sweet chilli dip was awful. The starters were cheap quality. The steak was fatty. The rice even tasted greasy. Had the set meal at £36 each. No draught beer either. It's one of the worst meals that we have ever had. First and last time. The waiters were not the best either.

Fairly poor food. The starters were shop bought frozen items. The duck was slightly under done and very fatty. Rice was barely warm and lumpy. Mixed vegetable dish was quite tasty, but all told rather disappointing

Had a takeaway, very nice service from the man on the bar Nice taste, i received mine Singapore just as i wanted!

Really nice food. Better than I expected and reasonably priced. Very busy on a Saturday night even early on so better to book. We will be returning.

Had several take aways from Fortune Palace but this was our first 'eat in'. Superb! Really enjoyed our food. Excellent quality, generous portion sizes and reasonably priced. Service is fine, friendly, polite and unobtrusive, just what we'd want and expect from a small, local restaurant. It was great to see it busy and Fortune Palace on a Thursday evening may just become a regular thing for us.

Everything was cooked well, lots of meat in the special curry, and the best Singapore noodles I have tasted.

Lovely place great food staff friendly

What an amazing find of a restaurant. Food was just spectacular. Friendly staff a.d great service. Will definitely be back.

Fantastic food and the staff are fantastic also.Try the chicken and steak in teriyaki on a hot plate you cannot beat this dish

This place should be avoided if you can I was with wife the tall skinny owner is the most arragont obnoxious person I have ever encountered he is doing you a favour talking to you so he thinks plus he is in need of a hose now for the bad points does not matter what you order all tastes of the plastic tubs it’s been sat in the kitchen before they microwave the meat of all the dishes we had was over nuked hard and crispy rice is dry and noodles are mixed from chow mein to thin Japanese you would honestly get better food at your local North Korean waste site all cheap no substance and the only fortune is his after you paid

We've had takeaway from here many times but decided to eat in last week. The food was even better at its so fresh! The staff are so lovely too. Can't wait to go back in.

We had a fabulous night for my sons 21st birthday food was amazing ,seating all together on long table the staff did everything to make our celebration a brilliant one it was excellent & I would highly recommend for any celebration big big thanku 😊 xxx

Fantastic time had by all the family for sons 21st birthday, food amazing & they cudnt do enough to make our evening sooo special a big big thanku xxx

Fantastic food and service as usual. Thanks for your hard work.

Delicious food and fantastic service. First time visit for us and we will definitely be back. Thank you!

Very good food and excellent service and friendly service

Great food and service. Vert reasonably priced

Great food and great service always guaranteed 👍

Couldn't fault it. Lovely food, service and staff. We had the set menu and a couple of cheeky extras. Staff very accommodating with our 'leftovers'.

We stopped off tonight for a take out after visiting family in Atherton, Sweet and Sour Chicken, young chow fried rice, beef and mushrooms, all was cooked to perfection, thank you Jimmy we will be back soon.

As always. A perfect dining experience.

The food was good, the portion was great, definitely worth the price. Overall very satisfied and would recommend in a heartbeat.

My family & I have been dining here for several years & always enjoyed it. Since lockdown I think that it's got even better!! The lettuce wraps are scrummy, as is the clam with spring onions & ginger. My husband says they do the best hot& sour soup & Singapore noodles ever!! We've always found the staff very welcoming, cheerful & efficient!

Delicious as always. Can't fault anything

Food far too much salt and garlic in the meals. No draught beer all bottles

Beautiful tasty food, staff so friendly and polite, chef also cooked me a dish that was not on the menu, will definitely be going back there

Jimmy at Fortune Palace has been open for ages, at least 25 yrs that I can remember. In truth it's the best. Never ever had a bad dish, always goes out of the way to help your experience, & the staff are always polite. Must be good to survive so long. Quality will shine every time. Keep it up Jimmy!!!.

Worth a visit without doubt. Food is really nice. staff cannot do enough for you. Not to big around 12 tables so nice and friendly size. Kids are made welcome also. Will be revisiting again soon.

Very clean and efficient Chinese restaurant in the centre of Atherton with an extensive affordable menu

First & last visit to this restraint. Food just acceptable. Poor & slow service. Used plates left on table too long. Staff would benefit from customer awareness training. Sorry, but could nor recommend this restraint.

Food was good, but as soon as it came and was put on the table the staff stud over you, second curse was out on table before the first curse was finished, needs to sort this out, had my first date with my wife here, went back for anniversary, sorry won't be going back.

Good food, plenty of choice on the menu.

Sweet&Sour pork wich was only sour and defenitly NOT PORK, missing aromatic duck on one menu plus tried to overcharge us. Appaling food and mysterious meats, do not recomend.

Brilliant food and excellant staff

Very good meal, good atmosphere and friendly staff. Highly recommend as a restaurant to visit

Delicious food and great service, every visit.

Another beautiful meal this evening xx excellent food thank you Jimmy and team

Bang on. Great Chinese restaurant

We eat here regularly in the week. We always have the set menu and the food is consistently delicious. I like the hot & sour soup, crispy duck and any main course. The owner and the staff give friendly service without being over bearing. We are lucky to have this little gem in Atherton. Can't fault it.

Our first visit here and we really enjoyed it . We had the banquet set menu and all our dishes were superb . Friendly staff and clean restaurant .

Clean friendly and value for money. We booked in advance so was expected all covid precautions in place. Food was excellent will visit again

Lovely staff and lovely food. My husband is a very fussy eater and only likes the sweet and sour chicken from here. My favourite dishes has to be singapore vermicelli and salt and pepper chicken. Decent prices too!

We have been stuck in for weeks (like everyone.) We were bored of eating the same old so Saturday night decided to try the takeaway service from the Fortune Palace. We normally eat here regularly at the restaurant. Our granddaughter loves the "chinese chicken" (quack quack,)so we really decided to order for her sake. My husband ordered at around 3pm and was told to collect around 5pm. Well, it was the best takeaway we have ever had. So fresh & tasty, restaurant standard. Thank you Jimmy and staff once again we shall be back for both take away (& restaurant when we are able)

Came across this place after a day out. The food was very tasty the price was very reasonable priced .

First time visited last night, we had a great meal all six of us had different meals all good and hot great staff and great atmosphere we will certainly be going again. 👍👍👍

good choice, has a decent vegetarian menu, goo service

Quality food nice and clean very friendly staff 😁😁

Love the chicken and steak teriyaki it’s amazing, we’ve eaten here for years and always had a warm welcome, definitely recommend

Lovely place and the staff work so hard. Would definitely go again

Lovely staff, delicious food and great prices

Lovely meal, very good service & value for money. White wine could have been better.

Went last night for the first time. Food was lovely and the price was brilliant. Will go again

Very nice the the names says it all

We visit here every month. The food standards are consistent and the service provided by Jimmy and the girls is excellent. The chef produces delicious food every time and the Hot & Sour soup is to die for. I've tried many dishes and have not been disappointed. The mid week special is excellent value and the same standard as the rest of the menu.

The food here is always absolutely beautiful. Favourites are the hot and sour soup, crispy duck and lemon chicken... Very indulgent. The prices are very reasonable and they will order nice wine in for you. Jimmy the owner and all staff are beyond friendly, attentive and cook dishes to your liking

Just had a take away from what used to be a good restaurant not any more I had heard it had gone off a bit but thought I would judge for myself the chicken in my meal must have died of natural causes it was that tuff and the portions were very small the other meal was tasteless and the prawn crackers were stale wouldn't recommend this restaurant at all .

Fantastic food and the flaming ribs are like no other absolutely exceptional

Very nice place nice would go back price was fiar for 4 with meal and drinks

We visited this restaurant as our usual Chinese restaurant has been closed for refurb. The food was delicious and the staff very nice & accommodating. We really enjoyed our night but I have marked it 4 star as we felt a little bit rushed...We normally order chicken & sweetcorn & hot & sour soupThen we have our starters (ribs & crispy duck etc)Then the mains & the sidesThen the desserts - should we have “room”However all our soups starters mains & sides all came together at once, we had no room (4 of us at a small table with our drinks etc etc it was like Chinese checkers lol;) we also ordered a takeaway for our son & that “joined the party” too. We couldn’t relax. Would we go back? Yes of course but we would let them know we eat in “courses” next time.

Will be returning. Great food and service

Superb Chinese will defo be going back

been here a few times now and yet can't seem to find anything wrong with the place. lovely staff, food is to die for and very affordable. would highly recommend to anyone.

Amazing staff. Great place. Can't believe we have only just found it

Always great food here amd decent prices

Was greeted by a very friendly staff member who swiftly took my drinks and started order. Was a cosey atmosphere recommend to couples

Great place great food great atmosphere loved it

Only had takeaway from here we have them every Sunday the food is to die for & always cooked to perfection

Had the set menu again and was as good as last time well worth the price

Been here a few times and always been nice tonight I ordered £40 with of food... bit into my spring roll and there was a huge peice of sharp plastic in it. Was literally sick my 4 year old could of choked on that as she loves spring rolls. Stormed in the shop and demanded my money back which I got but the food has all gone on in the bin because all of it was awful and put me off for life. So just be careful eating your food from there now

Always great food and I like the set menu options.

We were visiting the area and got a takeaway from here. They were very friendly and offered drinks and snacks whilst we waited for the food. The food itself was very nice and good portion sizes.

Lovely food great staff always nice and clean xx

Went with a friend just before Christmas and enjoyed a really good meal. The young waitresses were very helpful with our menu choice and were very polite and efficient.

Good service, pleasent food and reasonably priced.

Since my last review yet again we have been back several times in the last two month. On two of these occasions we have introduced this gem of a place to our friends who thoroughly enjoyed their visit. The early banquet is always excellent and great great value. Last Saturday we had chicken & sweetcorn soup, crispy duck and shared shredded chilli chicken - pork fried rice all served timely and deliciously hot. Ice cream for afters accompanied with a bottle of house red. Everyone is always friendly and deliver great customer service hence we always recommend and come back.

Have visited here a few times now and have been really impressed with the food, the service and the atmosphere. Good value, excellent service and a lovely place to spend time eating quality Chinese food. Can't recommend it enough.

In a little town that is full of fast food shops and very few places where you can sit down and enjoy a meal thank goodness we have the fortune palace. If you do not like Indian or spicy food this restaurant is the place to go, they will go out of their way to make sure your food is to your liking and provide excellent service throughout. Well worth a visit.

Been to Fortune Palace several times over the years. Always good food, good staff, good service and certainly value for money.

We ate from the buffet menu (£12.50) and really enjoyed it. Got soup, mixed starter, main course with rice and ice cream. It was really good value for money, extremely tasty and they don't rip you off for soft drinks!

Have never visited before but will definitely be back. Banquet menu at £12.50 is an absolute bargain with a much wider range of main courses than you'd generally expect for such deals. Lovely, friendly service and delicious food. Definitely recommend a visit.

2nd visit to this restaurant and as the last time the food and service was excellent we were served buy Chelsea who is a lovely young lady.

Excellent food, freshly cooked. Super value on the banquet menu.

I go here at least once a week. Love the food and the service is very friendly. Delivery times are spot on also when have ordered for delivery.

Great Chinese, best and only in Atherton. Singapore noodles are great

Really nice food.Good menu,nice place.

Aunque he vivido cerca de Atherton en la mayor parte de mi vida nunca he visitado el palacio de Fortuna y sólo fuimos porque el restaurante que normalmente uso estaba cerrado.

Been a number of times never disappointed. Wonderful food and service. Always made to feel welcome nothing to much trouble

A group of 6 of us recently ate here, good, quick friendly service and great food, definitely the best Chinese restaurant in the area. Highly recommend :)

Siempre comida maravillosa aquí y el servicio es estupendo podría estar bien si cambiamos la calefacción tuvimos que sentarnos con nuestros abrigos al aire libre en lo que frío

We've been in a few times to Fortune Palace and the food is really very good, and Jimmy is lovely and always smiley, friendly and helpful. I wouldn't say it is the cheapest but we have always been more than satisfied with the quality, both in terms of takeaway food and dining in.

My favourite Chinese restaurant in Atherton love it great service and kind staff, great food.

The food is always delicious and good, quick service. Good choice on the menu and reasonably priced, can't fault

I have eaten here on many occasions and have always enjoyed it. The food is exceptional and I never leave disappointed. The staff are very friendly and will do anything for you. I take my three year old daughter and the staff are brilliant with her as she is a very fussy eater. I highly recommend.

Really nice food, freshly cooked and will cater for vegans
