Review Good Fortune - Baltimore

I wanted orange chicken at 11 and they sold me orange chicken at 11. Servers were very patient with me as a first-time customer, I was in and out fast, and the food was cheap, tasty, and filling. I also got a free egg roll just thrown in - didn't eat it because I wasn't that hungry, but it was a nice gesture.

Mayflower moved from a dine in/ buffet to a carry out across the street, shortly before the pandemic. They certainly must have brought the dine in chef along because food quality is above the usual Chinese carryout. First, small Hot and Sour Soup, while tasty the soup was very heavy with white pepper, as there was little to no chiles visible. The soup contained the perfunctory sliced bamboo shoots, egg ribbons and tender tofu, however the mushrooms were definitely canned and there was no chicken or Wood Year fungus/mushrooms, they were really missed. It came with a small bag of fried wonton which tasted fresh and crispy crunchy. My lips are still burning! Next up, Roast Pork Yat Gat Mein (or Yak as we Baltimoreans call it). I've had here before and I'm hooked! I've never been a Yat Gat Mein fan because of the thick over powering black sauce being the leading man/woman. Not at Mayflower! The sauce is there as a savory compliment to the deliciously bouncy thick noodles, little onion (could have used more), egg and amazing roast pork. The roast pork is definitely the star of this show. It is sliced to just the right thickness, not hard strips or ground like most neighborhood carryouts. It's sweet , savory with just the right amount of Umami. I LOVE it! Last but not least, Roast Pork Fried Rice with Shrimp. If you're anything like me, House Fried Rice can sometimes be a bit too much with not enough of my favorite protein adds. I order the Roast Fried Rice and just ask to add shrimp for an extra $2.50. The shrimp are of good size and the nice little cubes of roast pork add that extra umph. The onions, peas and carrots add good texture. Honestly, the fried rice is just so so, not too oily which can definitely be a plus. Everything was delivered super hot and tasted as fresh as Chinese carryout can be. Mayflower didn't get that extra star because of the overly peppery soup and the lack of wood year and no chicken to take it over the top. A little extra flavor to the rice would have taken it to the next level. I'd like to try their Egg Foo Young, fried dumplings and Shrimp in Garlic Sauce, maybe next time. A little picky I suppose but I will definitely go for Mayflower again and again! I almost forgot, they also threw in two free canned sodas, I think that little extra customer care takes them to 4.5.

I order here regularly (once or twice a month) and have always been happy with the food. Staff are always nice and food has been delicious and consistent. I haven't tried delivery, but pickup is always ready in 15 minutes. Portion sizes are generous! I always have a bunch of food left over. I definitely recommend Mayflower.

The best Asian take out food in Baltimore

I have never been disappointed with Mayflower. It had been over 4 months since I last ate there,,,but, I was not disappointed!!! Everyone was very satisfied, and full with leftovers! I always get Egg Foo Young, this was the first time I purchased wings, and will buy again. I did not receive rude customer service, she even read back my order to be sure It was correct.

Always loved the food here, but haven't had any in 5 years until this night. The General Tso chicken was a bit off, for I am used to it being a bit more spicy with a serving of broccoli. Everything else seemed to be satisfactory.

Read a lot of the reviews and was a little skeptical but, I went against my better judgment and ordered anyway. I ordered shrimp fried rice and sesame chicken and it was delicious! Great speedy service and amazing fortune cookies! Certainly will be ordering again 💙

Have ordered take-out here for years and have been pleased with the service and the food. I'm not very adventurous when it comes to Chinese food. I usally order chicken or shrimp dishes and have been very pleased with the meals. My only complaint is that there's never enough rice. I have to make rice to go with the leftovers.

The food is always fresh and very delicious. We usually eat in the restaurant Our food arrives quickly. The staff is polite and greet us with a smile.

Always great food and good customer service! I've lived all over the city and I still make my way to Mayflower for gor their bomb azz chinese food! 😋
