Good Fortune Cafe, which has been serving the area since 1994 (according to its website), will be closing at the end of August.
The restaurant, located at 237 Kentlands Place in the Beacon Place shopping center (same strip as Giant), initially had a bigger space before downsizing to its current space in the early 2000s. A representative from the restaurant informed us earlier this month that their lease would be expiring at the end of August and they couldn’t agree to new terms.
Fans of the restaurant, which offers Chinese cuisine, sushi, and Thai cuisine, may be happy to hear that the restaurant will look for a new space. As of now, there is nothing to report about the next possible location if it was to reopen elsewhere.
Good Fortune started out with a broad menu, according to a Washington Post article from 2002. “Lots of familiar dishes of the General Tso and moo shi varieties, a few softball-dad specials (a handful of “Revolution Diet” offerings, steamed and presumably low-carb), and an accommodating mix of Americanized and more authentic noodle dishes, from chow meins to chow foons, that are clearly big favorites with children.”
