It is what it is: probably the best BYO in Belfast. I can't fault the food and I know when good cuts of meat are used and fresh veg. Not the usual cheap MSG stuff you get a restaurant at twice the price. Always friendly, homely and I like the unpretentious atmosphere. I have eaten in all the restaurants in... More

When I asked about it the guy said there are extra ingredients in fried rice! I mean really £2.50 for what....I make fried rice there is not that... More

I have only gone to this restaurant to takeaway on a weekend and it's always buzzing. The food is so fresh and tasty, staff young and pleasant. I have tried quite a few Chinese restaurants in the area and this is tops for me. Doesn't look great from the outside - I had to be coaxed in by a friend,... More

It's always great to feel you got something value for money and Good Fortune always invokes this feeling in me. I can come with my wife and my family and I Know it's going to be good and the bill is not going to bring tears to my eyes. The BYO policy (free corkage) makes all the difference and the... More

Went here for a meal with family had not booked and when we arrived there were lots of empty tables on seeing we had a three year old with us everything was booked. Felt we were being fobbed off do not even attempt to get in if you have children.

We are sorry you could not secure a table on your recent visit to Good Fortune. It is our policy, and the policy of most eating establishments to give priority to people who pre-book a table. We run a small, busy establishment and at peak times of the week we would always advise our customers to book. I think it's... More

We were heading out for a meal with our best friends and thought we'd stop off at Ballyhackamore and try Il Pirata but they could'nt take us, so we went to the trusty Good Fortune, who thankfully could take us. Such a good choice on the menu that we had trouble choosing what we would have. But the waiting staff... More

We ate here again last night - it's a regular haunt for us . Don't forget to book for a Friday/Saturday evening though. The menu has changed a bit since our last visit - and the prices have gone up a bit too. Nevertheless, the BYO policy with no corkage still makes it very good value. Food is fresh and... More

I have been going to the Good Fortune for years. It's great value, superb staff, cosy, intimate atmosphere and you can bring your own wine. I much prefer it to the much more expensive option across the road.
