Fortune House Seafood Restaurant 福聯海鮮酒家 is located inside Metrotown. It is convenient to have a restaurant inside a mall, but it would mean the restaurant is always crowded. Highly recommend making reservation.
We came here for dim sum. It is just another typical Chinese dim sum place. It is not bad, but it isn't the best.
Golden Yolk Custard Lava Buns (Liu Sha Bao) 疏乎蛋流沙包 is very cute for photo taking, but it is very dry. It isn't what we are expected.

Decent priced dim sum with very large portions. The flavours were there and everything was crispy and steaming hot. Only miss was the Chinese donut wrapped in crepe which was too doughy and almost impossible to eat. It was incredibly heavy. Would recommend coming... Had to wait on a Monday afternoon at 1pm for 2 people. Super busy which means their customers are always coming back for good food.
Did not need to wait too long for a table (My visit was on Sunday right about 11:30am)No special disount/time for the tea unless you're their memeber, so no rushA variety of Cantonese item options: 薑汁純雙皮奶 :pService was quite effecient At the back side of the Order Record, it explains the whole Chinese tea time concept!Cutleries were kind of dated...
Been coming here for several years, and it's still a pretty good place for dim sum with a big group. The lines can get really outrageous sometimes though.

The first photo is of the mango pudding fish and not only is it adorable, it is also a fantastic and iconic HK dessert. I thought that the texture was quite firm and gelatinous and had a strong mango taste. Lovely!
This is the spicy and sour soup with seafood. This had a punch of sourness and spiciness and was a lovely appetizer to What we call "expand stomach" 开胃
been here a couple times, i must say everytime i went here it's never for a quick meal, but a heavy meal, and usually during chinese new year or, some other events, and so, this time is no different, it's chinese new year, the food was one of the selection from the chinese new year dinner, and definitely something that is worth while i will say. most of the food are definitly okay, and i tried the dimsum over here as well it was definitely nice, but again it'll be a little bit more expensive as well since the location is prime :D so then, the food over here is definitely alright, if not some of them are above average.

Fortune House Seafood Restaurant often gets discounted because it’s located in Metrotown and, let’s be honest, the lineup here can get rather discouraging during the peak dim sum hours.
Since we live nearby and we wanted some dim sum before heading out for a quick run to the border, we popped over to Fortune House. They open at 9am on the weekend so we managed to find a table rather easily.
We started out with an order of Deep Fried Taro Dumplings. The deep fried exterior was pleasantly contrasted with the creamy inside filling.
Har Gow is a standard dim sum dish and I found Fortune House’s version to be pretty good. Actually, all of the dim sum dishes that I tried on this visit were all pretty solid.
I find that one of the things that I really enjoy about the Chinese Donut Rice Roll is how the velvety smooth rice roll contrasts with the crunchy donut on the inside.
Steamed beef omasum is probably not one of the dishes that most westerners would eagerly be willing to try. But if you’ve never tried it before, you should definitely give it a whirl. By itself, it’s fairly flavourless… which is why the proper accompanying sauce is important.
Steamed Beef Balls is another one of our go-to dim sum dishes.
Last up on this visit was the Mini Egg Tarts. They were appropriately served last as they were freshly baked and still warm. I love how there were so many delicate, flaky layers to the crust.
Overall, I thought the food was fairly well prepared and, because we came by so early, we didn’t have to wait.
I went with a crowd and was thought that I might have trouble finding something to eat since I don't eat meat. Turns out they have non-meat choices available if you ask your server. My favourite was the Pan Fried Ham with Tomato Sauce. It would be a great place to have veggie dim sum.

I went to a complimentary meal courtesy of YVR Foodies and the food, service, and ambiance were excellent. At Fortune House the food is authentic traditional Cantonese Chinese food. Fortune House is located at Metrotown and is easily accessible. For Dim Sum they served Tempera which was very tasty and crispy. Then they served a Plate of 3 which included a shrimp dumpling, sticky rice with pork, and deep fried dumpling with pork and mushroom. The Dim Sum was excellent. The first course was Sautéed Beef Tenderloin with Mixed Peppers in a birds nest with deep fried mild around the sides. The presentation of this dish was excellent and the beef was tender. The second course was Steamed Scallop with garlic in a shell. The presentation was very good and this dish was tasty. The third course was Deep Fried Fish with sweet and sour sauce and crispy rice on the side. The fish was delicious. The fourth dish was pork spareribs with curry sauce. It symbolizes loyalty and commitment. The spareribs were very tender and a very popular dish at the table I was sitting at. The fifth dish was Soya Sauce Chicken which symbolizes prosperity. It was very good. I really enjoyed the chicken. The sixth dish was Scallop Fried Rice. The seventh dish was Mango Pudding for dessert. This dish was in the shape of a fish. It was an excellent presentation, and also it was tasty. At Fortune House they have a meal share program. When a item on the menu that is starred is ordered, then a meal is donated to a needy person. Fortune House has been in business for 25 years, and I recommend it.
