Fortune Cooky Restaurant

Wow this place was so much better than I remembered. I can’t believe that I waited so long to come back and eat here again. Of all the places in the Glen Burnie area I have to say that this place definitely has the best Chinese food.

Poor customer service, fried rice needs carrots and egg, fried rice undercooked, I feel like they use a LOT of msg. Excellent hot and sour soup and ribs.

I use to go to this place with my family and friends as a kid. The place looks nice and the food is good I have been there twice since I got back to town. Good drinks and good food always take home because there is so much food. Share dishes with friends.

This restaurant has a nice dining area but I did take away. I wasn’t sure what to expect since the reviews are all over the place.
But, I saw their menu online and I was surprised that they have the traditional egg roll with meat, a vegetable egg roll AND a vegetable spring roll. (No vegetable dumplings though.)
I decided to try the vegetable egg rolls. You get two for $ 2.95. They are large and heavy; mostly shredded cabbage and not really flavorful so I added a lot of hot mustard sauce.
It wasn’t the best but was good. It served my need for lunch between appointments.

I didn’t eat in, but I did notice the space when I walked in, which is more contemporary than the abandoned look of the plaza strip it occupies on the outside.

Overall, food was okay. There are better places in Ellicott City and Rockville, but I guess it’s not horrible for Glen Burnie. Ordered from the Thai curry menu and the Chinese side. The Thai curry might not be like what you’re used to at most Thai places, more of a Sinicized version, which is still okay. Food from the Chinese menu was also okay, typical Americanized takeout fare.

Came here late on a weeknight not knowing if the kitchen was closed yet. So went in, saw a lady at the register looking like she was tallying up the day’s orders and asked if we could still place a takeout order. She answered yes without looking up, and then proceeded to ignore us for the next 10 minutes. No look, no «hello,» no other verbal or visual acknowledgement. At first I figured she was busy, and I did wait in front of her patiently. Then I said, «Okay, we’re ready to order.» But there was still no reaction, so I continue to wait right in front of her for the next 5 minutes (very awkward). Then finally, someone else wearing the same uniform comes out of the kitchen and starts cleaning tables. Finally she speaks up and calls at the waitress in Chinese to come take our order!
The waitress actually turned out to be pretty nice. But with the lady at the front (young looking, prominent mole on her face), it was one of the most bizarre lack of customer service skills I’ve ever seen. If she wasn’t going to take our order, instead of acting like we were invisible after answering our initial query she could have just told us that someone else was going to come take our order.
That non-​existent level of customer service makes me never want to go back.

This place has been here for 40 years and it’s a hidden gem. sushi is extremely on point. very very impressive service, they mix up their sushi menu specials seems like everyday and there are not many places that have craveable food these days. Portions Are also very generous in my eyes. five stars all the way from Bay to Bay what what yay yay as vanilla ice would say. I would eat here everyday! % MOUTHGASM

Love this place. For carry out and dine in. Never had a problem with my order. Love it.

This Americanized Chinese restaurant has really good food, and I like their customer service — for the most part. I choose carry out because I live 20 minutes away. But when I pick it up, they speak their native language to each other while I’m at the front desk. Really? You can’t wait until I leave? So anyway, every time they do this, no tip for them.

One of my friends suggested this place since i told her that i had a craving for good shrimp fried rice. So i tried it and have been hooked on it. I only go here for the fried rice and the egg rolls .i have tried a few other dishes but didnt enjoy them as much. The only real issue i have with the place is the delivery. 3 times it has taken over an hour and the last time the lady who delivered wouldnt give me my food even though i paid by credit card because her boss didnt give her the credit slip and she didnt have any clue that i had paid already. After a 10 minute back and forth phone call i finally was giving my food. After that incident i was done with delivery and i prefer to pick up my food myself.

I have lived a mile from this place for 11 years and stopped eating here about 6 years ago because the food was horrible. My girlfriend, who is not local, picked up take-​out here last week and to my surprise, it was actually really good. It is also cheaper than the other good chinese restaurant a few miles away.
They need to make sure the long time locals know they have changed management and the old place is long gone.
I went again today to make sure last week was not a fluke.
Sooo good.

Stopped by to pickup yesterday. Great selection of food and sushi! Got the baltimore & volcano roll. Volcano shrimp entrée was also excellent. Great staff.

The food is always good and they have the cheapest drinks in town! They make excellent drinks and everything I’ve tried on the menu is excellent.

This place has the best Chinese food around. They have a huge menu that also contains other ethnic Asian foods, but I mainly stick to the Chinese.
The staff is extremely friendly and the atmosphere is nice and relaxing inside. Looks like a run down dive from the outside, but that shopping center has been in decline every since the Walmart closed and the super center Walmart opened down the road years ago.
They usually have a small staff, so if you go at peak times for dine in or carry out, expect a wait for the food to be cooked or for service at your table. But if you have patience, you’ll truly enjoy your meal.
Despite these detractors, I can’t envision anything less than 5 stars because the food is that good! This is my older two children’s favorite restaurant. This place has been here a long time while other Asian restaurants in the area have come and gone.

I consider this to be the tastiest of all the Asian places in the area (of which there are quite a few!). They do have a wide variety of food at really good prices, especially for lunch (but dinner is also very affordable, I just tend to get this kind of food for lunch more often). They do a box combo with sushi as well as Thai lunch specials, noodle specials and wok specials (and regular Chinese, of course). Fresh, interesting tasting (as opposed to a lot of places, where it all kinda just tastes the same!!), good portions and you can order online — either for delivery or pick-​up. I love this option as it gives me plenty of time to browse the menu and decide what I want, and it eliminates potential awkwardness on the phone! You can pay either online or when you pick up (which is what I chose).
I would definitely recommend this place.

I went to the furtune cookie tonight, I was being cheap withself and I ordered a small portion of curry chicken for the first time… It was DELICIOUS!!! It’s a must have… Loved it

On my recent visit at this restaurant I tried the General Tso’s chicken and I was very disappointed on what I received. It just seemed like the rice was dried out. Time to look for another Chinese restaurant in the area.

This is the best Chinese food that I have ever ate! Quick service and an excellent staff! great prices so what more could you ask for!

I wouldn’t call this place a «Chinese Food» restaurant because the mainly specializes in «Thai Curry» but they do have regular Chinese food & Sushi/​Sashimi etc. I tried the Sushi 2 each — octopus & eel. It’s ok I’ll go to another place for it but since this was my 1^st time eating here while waiting for my to go dinner I opted to taste sushi. I love eel, octopus etc since my family are Asian mixed. I got the Pad Prik Khing w/​beef in basil. It’s beef, basil leaves, peppers, onion, and strong beans. It comes spicy which I love and for the boo I got him pepper steak w/​onion. My meal was $ 34 total. So I’m eating my Pad Prik Khing which is basically stir fry w/​basil leaf. It’s good to me :) next I’ll try the actual curry type coconut milk sauces. I normally would go to the «D’Aim Kim» Chinese food spot but this place is new too me so it’s a good choice. Give it a quick try and lunch specials ends @3pm
3 stars because sushi wasn’t too good to me, no napkins as I say at the bar to eat the sushi, or soy sauce and my choice of food is regular tasting (nothing to rave over) lol but thinking the curry will be better next time I go and try it.

A little worried by a place that calls itself «cooky» (Addams Family, anyone?), but the staff was friendly and the food was okay.
Thanks to Meredith L’s thorough review, I tried the Wor Su Op (crispy fried duck in aromatic sauce) and enjoyed it. Duck is a naturally fatty bird, though I couldn’t help but think this was really greasy. Its redemption comes in the LOAD of vegetables. Whereas some Chinese restaurants give a token piece or two of broccoli, these guys did not skimp!
Girlfriend got the Pad Thai, which was also greasy, though not nearly as much as my duck dish. A shared plate of spicy tuna helped refresh the palate.
Not bad, not great, but hits the spot when you’ve got a hankering for decent Chinese food at an affordable price.

Only been here once and I ordered off their Thai section of the menu. Quiet dining area. Nice and relaxing. A tad shady seeming area but that’s mainly because of the vacant business on their left.
I ordered drunken noodles (one of my favorite and go-​to Thai dishes). I asked for hot because places tend to use the «American» hot to designate spicy on the menu. Also had wonton soup.
Everything was great. Food came out at a great temperature. The portions are massive. Drunken noodles were cooked in chili oil which made them a great temperature for me. The staff is laid back and not overbearing. So much so that it takes an extra minute to get their attention for more water.
Honestly, I’d likely rather have that than an overbearing, conversation interrupting wait staff. I will be back to try sushi and Chinese for sure.
