Restaurant Review: Fortune Cookie Chinese Restaurant in Atlanta, GA

FANDD
Fortune Cookie is a favorite for people who work around Emory University and Executive Park. Stepping through the door is like walking through to another place. The lighting is low and the music soft. An aquarium divides the restaurant in half. The draw here is the good service, reasonable prices and excellent service.

The Food
All your Chinese favorites are here. The lunch special includes a wonton, egg roll and your choice of soup in addition to your entrée. If you ask, you can have your rice steamed. They will also bring out hot tea on request.

My favorites include Mongolian Beef and General Tsu's Chicken. One of my co-workers loves the Orange Chicken. There is also a section for those wanting healthier choices.

Can I Make it Back to Work in an Hour?
Yes. You can easily make it back to work in an hour. Servers immediately take your order once you sit down. The food is prepared quickly. Because Fortune Cookie is such a popular restaurant, they have a personal stake in moving you out.

Cost of Meal
The cost of the meal will probably run around $10 including tax and tip. In this is the assumption that you drink the free hot tea that is supplied on request.

How the Money Works
The server will bring you the bill. You pay the cashier at the front. The cashier will break out the bill for you if you are in a group and you want to pay separately.

Reservations
Not needed
