With the experience of my last visit, we went for the a la carte menu to have dinner here couple of days ago. We ordered the Stir Fried Shredded Pork in Peking Sauce, Stir Fried Pork Chitterlings with celery and green chilli and the Fish Fillets in Spicy Sauce with Chinese Cabbages. Our strategy proved to be correct that all three of the dishes composed an impressive dining experience. Pancakes for the shredded pork are soft and the shredded pork is very tasteful. Chitterlings seems to be slightly let down because the chitterlings are not thick and tenderised enough. Having said that the fish fillets gained marks back with very generous portion. All Basa fillets were thick cut and the spiciness was just spot-on. Yummy!

If I read the review from Espresso&Matcha, I would stick with my plan to go for a la carte for my second visit of this restaurant. Walked in to have an early dinner last night at 5:45pm. There were already two tables occupied. We were attracted by the menu of Spicy Hot Pot (dry hot pot) that seemed to be their signature dish as competing with Malatang everywhere around Sunnybank area. Selected five each of the meat & vegetables. Waited around 10 to 12 minutes then our hot pot (not really a hot pot but a wok) with all the food that we chose. It looked alright but the taste had the same mistake as three years ago that it lacks the pungency and spiciness (even we ordered mild hotness). In addition, it is not cheap as we paid over $70.00 for it and I think it would be much cheaper to have Malatang across the road @ "fill the bowl" of the Market Square!

I have not had dinner in this restaurant for a while so gave it a go last Friday. I found the business went downhill in terms of service and setting. They really need face-lifted on the filthy couch covers and also the waitress uniform. I ordered the Hot & Spicy Mixed Seafood HotPot to go with some Steamed Buns. Portion was acceptable with enough varieties of seafood such as sand crab, scallops, abalone, prawns, mussels etc. However, the whole HotPot lacks the pungency and spiciness, maybe it is a modified version but more chillies and cayenne pepper would definitely show the character of Sichuan cuisine. Having said that it is not a bad place to cure the homesickness of some dinners and that is the reason why it is still quite busy on that night.
The food is nice. Like the hot pot here. Most food is hot and tasty and you can also ask the chef put less spicy in your order. Recommend and will come back.
I've been to the Fortune Well restaurant on a couple of special occasions, and it's always sensational! Fortune Well hits all the right places for an excellent dining experience. The service is always impeccable. The food there especially the Stir Fried Asparagus Lettuce With Pork was pure delight to eat. Overall Fortune Well is an amazing Si-Chuan style restaurant. Highly recommended!
This is a great Sichuan-style restaurant. The taste is exactly the same as what I have eaten in Chongqing. I only waited for about 10 minutes to eat my order. The staff is very friendly. The Deep Fried Chicken Dices with Hot Dried Chill and Chef's Special Fish Fillets recommended to me are very good to eat
I used to have no interest in spicy food. Once I was taken to Fortune well by my friends, my mind has totally changed. The main reason is because of the brilliant dry hot pot served by Fortune well. I can choose the level of the spicy as well as the ingredients to make up of the hot pot. Besides, pancakes are contained in a dish called stir fried pork. The experience in fortune well gives me a brand new taste on Chinese traditional Sichuan food. Really recommend.
With a genuine chengdu bloodline, more attention should be paid to local conditions. Over the years, shui jing fang has been exploring ways to blend local Australian ingredients with traditional sichuan cuisine. On the basis of absorbing the essence of other cuisines and combining the characteristics of different food materials, various delicacies with different flavors have been derived.
Highly recommend!!! Fortune Well is the best restaurant in Brisbane which is famous for Sichuan cuisine. The food there combines traditional Chinese cultures and western food cultures which is suitable for everyone. As a big fan of spicy food, the dry hot pot and the BBQ fish are my favorite dishes. The food and service in this restaurant are fabulous!😊😊😊
The dining environment is beautiful. I like the overall decoration style very much, It makes me feel back home. As for food, I didn't expect the portion sizes to be so large. So when I finished my dish I can still pack the left as the part of my next meal. Containers only cost 30c to 50 c according to the size. I really enjoyed all dishes, particularly the Si Chuan style deep fried shrimps, these were amazing! .I can't wait to come and eat here again.
It is surprise that the chef can change the pungency degree of every dish that the taste is just right for me. The food is fantastic both cold dish and hot dish. We order a roast fish, it is fresh and special with Chinese prickly ash. And it is nice to make the dish out of aginomoto when I ask them to do so cauze I am sensitive with it.
Fortunewell is the best restaurant in Brisbane,I never eat the best Chinese food like fortune well restaurant,the food is so delicious,the service is great.Last Friday I and my friend went there to have a dinner,we ate the dry hot pot,it’s very tasty.And the waitress help to take photo for us and we didn’t finish,help us to take away food! Especially the environment is good,we sat near the heater,it’s romantic??
Absolutely the most tasty fish we had so far! We ordered the stone boiling fish, chicken, and salt pepper prawns. This restaurant is one of the few places that actually cook the chicken and prawns perfectly which has inside tender and juicy and outside crispy. The chicken goes well with beer and its spicy level is just right for us. This meal convinced a person who didn’t like fish or seafood!
We got take away from Fortune Well at Sunny Park, we got:
1.Beef in Spicy Sauce with Chinese Cabbage
($23.50) - it was tasty but there beef was a little tough to chew.
2. Stewed Fish Fillet with Pickled Chilli & Vegetables ($34.50). A little bland, but was satisfying enough.
The hot stone fish pot seemed to be a popular item among all the diners here. It's pretty good but would be nicer if there's more vegetables inside. Definitely a dish to share with a few people. The beef tripe dish was not bad but a bit oily. All the dishes we had were spicy but you can tone down the spice level to your liking.
Cold dish was great. Hot pot was flavorsome. Spicy fish was a bit lacking the spicy kick!
Very tasty food especially the Sichuan beef and Kung Pao Chicken
Pretty good Sichuan food!
My favourite is cumin lamb ribs (Not this time),
Non spicy Fish soup was nice,
Foods was good with Tsingtao!
