The food and service were both really good. The place itself is simple, but the food is solid and well done. Prices felt a bit on the higher side for such a no-frills restaurant, but overall the experience was positive. Parking was easy, the location is convenient and very close to where I live, which is a big plus. We didn’t order any drinks, just water, and there was no wait at all — it was just us there. It definitely has potential, and I hope it does well. It’s not easy to compete with bigger, long-established restaurants, but this place deserves a chance.

2/12 & 14/ 2026 We were visiting from Chattanooga, Tn and wanted to share our previous fantastic experiences of Fortune Wok to Table with our Denver family but we decided Fortune Nong Jia Le would suit our spread of four generations better… The entire evening could not have been more wonderful. From the moment we arrived, we felt genuinely welcomed. The comfortable dining room setting made it such an enjoyable experience for our whole family, especially for my grandparents. What truly set the evening apart were the personal touches from the staff. On a later return visit during our trip, they remembered our earlier reservation request and even my drink preference.(kick back) That level of attentiveness made us feel less like customers and more like honored guests. It’s rare to encounter that kind of thoughtful hospitality, and it meant so much to our family. The meal itself was outstanding. The pork dumplings were simply superb—perfectly tender wrappers with incredibly flavorful, juicy filling that had everyone at the table reaching for “just one more.” They were easily some of the best we’ve ever had. The beef street noodles were just as impressive. The noodles had the ideal texture, and the beef was rich, savory, and beautifully seasoned. The depth of flavor in the sauce tied everything together in a way that felt both comforting and unforgettable. Sharing such an exceptional meal across four generations made the night even more special. We left full, grateful, and already looking forward to our next visit. This restaurant has truly earned a place among our family favorites.

Had a totally delicious meal here, and look forward to returning to try some more dishes! Our fav was the vegetarian river noodles (an off-menu vegetarian dish), and the beef clay pot, though we also enjoyed the pork bao buns and vegetables dumplings. They are very good at accommodating allergies, and don’t use any oyster sauce or XO sauce, which made it safe for one member of our party with a fish and seafood allergy to dine here. That’s a big perk! Overall I found the meal felt like a flavorful, slightly lighter meal. (I.e. not heavy feeling like some Chinese spots can be. (Though this is Shanghainese.)) Excited to return to try more of the dishes!
