We ate at the River Fortune last Friday evening. The service was very friendly and the decor comfortable and smart. The food was absolutely delicious - we shared spring rolls and dim sum for starters and then shared a thai green curry and special massaman curry. All dishes were well cooked, nicely presented and full of flavour. We would highly recommend you try it!

Re: ‘ river fortune 5 st peters place Leeds ls9 8aq While working away in Leeds I asked a fellow colleague where I could enjoy an Chinese meal one evening. She recommended the ‘river fortune’ in Leeds st peters place so we booked a table for the following night. On arriving at the ‘river fortune’ we were warmly greeted by the waiters who swiftly seated us, took our drinks order (what else but sun lik !) and brought fresh,warm prawn crackers while we perused the menu and were spoiled for choice.We ordered a selection of duck ,seafood based dish like beancurd casserole szechuanstyle, black pepper dishes some fried rice and Cantonese sauce when they arrived we could not believe the generosity of the portions, but the subtle spicing and superb quality of the meat and seafood seduced us into eating the lot. We washed it down with a bottle of white wine that was surprisingly good. The total bill for two ( gratuity) was under £40 which indicates excellent value for money, especially considering the generous quantity and high quality of what we had. It was interesting to note that even on a Thursday evening , the restaurant was full and a steady stream of customers (including the local Chinese population ) called in to collect their take-away meals.The river fortune was converted by the Hoque family ,from a dowdy site into a chic’ brasserie style restaurant offering Chinese and Thai cuisine. It opened on 7th November 2011 with 104 covers of contrasting black and cream linen Well done to the Hoque family for developing this successful restaurant, I look forward to returning soon (more reports please )
