We had a great meal at Fortunate Son. The atmosphere, service, and food all came together for a fun and memorable dining experience. We shared the cucumber salad to start, along with General Tso’s, lo mein, and green beans — all of which were very good. The lively atmosphere added to the experience. Highly recommended.

Picked up my orange chicken five minutes after it was ready and the chicken is absolute disgusting. It is as if it was sitting on the counter for at least three hours and just quickly reheated and left to sit out again. Not to mention there was no sauce on the orange chicken and there were weird random dark pieces of meat as shown in the photo and lastly the chicken was overly crisp where it just felt like I was eating a chip. It’s no wonder why the rating on this restaurant keeps going down ever since I moved to San Diego. This place sucks and I thought I would give them another try but they continuously fail. They put so much vegetables and none of the meat that you pay for in their dishes and overpriced everything And to top it off I wanted to at least enjoy a fortune cookie something that usually I thought wouldn’t be ruined, but this fortune cookie was stale and inedible. I didn’t even want to read my fortune. Don’t go here. This place cannot be saved and its quality is just diving deeper and deeper down. The only good thing I rated was the atmosphere because the aesthetics are nice. That is literally it. I said what I said #StillHungry

Food is not good, they use way too much soy sauce as seasoning. The ambiance is nice but if you want good Chinese food go to Tasty Noodle House. Best we ordered: Honey Walnut Shrimp Worst we ordered: Lo Mein Noodles This review is done by a Certified Asian ™️.

I really don’t like leaving bad reviews, but I’m genuinely upset—I just threw away my entire dinner. I ordered takeaway on Monday July 21 and got the crab rangoon, General Tso’s chicken, and fried rice. The crab rangoon was burnt and barely had any filling. The chicken was also burnt and mostly just thick batter—I found maybe two actual pieces of chicken in the whole container. Disappointed, I figured I’d at least eat the fried rice… until I noticed a pool of oil sitting at the bottom. It was really disappointing to throw away $40 worth of food that clearly wasn’t edible. Does this place have ambiance? Sure. But that doesn’t matter if the food is this bad. I expect better from a CH project restaurant. I've had good meals from Fortunate Son but the quality has significantly decreased. I've ordered here a lot and have noticed it going downhill. This experience was so bad though that I won't be returning. Please hire better cooks and improve the food quality. Honestly, I’d rather eat at a humble hole-in-the-wall spot with good food than overpay for something that ends up in the trash. Save your money and skip this place.

Such a vibe!! I've been wanting to go here so we arrived right around 5 and got seated right away. Food was great! 10/10 American Chinese it's so good and great quality, definitely elevated from a classic take out operation. My sister is vegan and they were able to make a few items vegan and gave us some options that she could choose! Overall great food, great service, great atmosphere !
