Quick info
About Golden Fortune Chinese Takeaway
Golden Fortune Chinese Takeaway is a Chinese takeaway at 5 Downpatrick St in Newry, and it opens daily, evenings only. The menu runs from spring rolls filled mostly with bean sprouts to chow mein with chicken and noodles. Chips, noodles and curry sauce are also served together as one order. Because the takeaway trades in the evenings every day of the week, weekends are its busiest stretch, and telephone orders at weekends are hard to get through because the line is so busy.

Customer Review Summary
Chicken dishes draw the warmest praise, with reviewers singling out the salted chilli chicken and a chicken chow mein called unreal. Close behind are BBQ ribs with a tangy sauce, king prawn curry and fried rice. Spring rolls draw the sharpest complaints, with two reviewers describing a mountain of bean sprouts and barely any chicken. Chips and noodles are the other weak point, with chips described as hard as a rock or soggy, and noodles as burnt or tasting weeks old. One reviewer reports feeling unwell after eating. Another says a chip served in a vegetarian daughter's meal turned out to be chicken, and after struggling to get through by phone they were told a replacement would have to be paid for. One mentions rude staff, while another finds the service very friendly. A reviewer notes bigger meat portions but says extra rice or noodles may be needed, and weekend phone lines go unanswered because it is so busy. One regular has ordered every Friday night for four years.

“Really disappointing food, the chips were hard as a rock, the noodles tasted like they were weeks old and the meat smelt and tasted really weird. I felt a little unwell just after eating a little bit.”

“Telephone ordering at weekends out of the question as it so busy they don't answer "good sign" yea!”

“My vegetarian daughter ordered a meat-free meal of chips, noodles, and curry sauce. Shockingly, when she bit into a chip, it turned out to be chicken, causing considerable distress! Despite making numerous calls to the takeaway, we struggled to get through. When we finally reached them, they instructed us to call back and mentioned we would need to pay for a replacement... This falls far short of acceptable service standards!!”

“Got chicken chow mein was actually good the chicken was unreal and the noodles were also good but the bean sprouts give this weird taste, the other dishes like king prawn curry fried rice are pretty decent too… However. Spring rolls are an absolute heinous crime. Spring rolls at first glance look big and brilliant but instead of your meat and shrimp and veges and all kinds of things in equilibrium, you get a MOUNTAIN of these dole bean sprouts. Never get these spring rolls they are an abomination.”
