My sister and I are low key Bacon, Egg and Cheese sandwich connoisseurs. That being said we unanimously agreed that their Double Egg, Double Cheese, Double Bacon sandwich was the best we've ever had IN OUR LIVES. Granted we have only been eating BEC for 20 years - so far this one takes the cake. First the ROLL: Not stale, not too much bread that you can't even finish your sandwich and no leak throughs. BACON: we asked for crispy and they delivered. It wasn't greasy or dripping, it wasn't burnt and I don't know what kind of bacon they use but I swear it tasted better than all the rest. Not too salty or smokey , not thick or fatty. truly perfectly crisp tasty bacon. EGGS: we asked for over medium and WOW. It was like one of those soft boiled eggs but it was fried eggs with the same yolk consistency. Runny enough to keep the sandwich from being dry (which is the worst imho), but not enough to pour out of the sandwich onto you hands, face and whatever you happen to be eating above. Good ratio of yolk to whites, I think they use medium or standard eggs instead of jumbo which is nice. and last but certainly first in my heart CHEESE: You can ask for whatever cheese you want, we usually go with american or cheddar, this time american and they nailed it. The problem I often find with the cheese is that places skimp on the cheese, even when you ask for double. Not here! It was perfectly melted and balanced out all the other flavors coming from the bacon and eggs. It was also still warm when I got home with the sandwiches (about 30 mins after) so the cheese wasn't clumped or dry either. sometimes you see the cheese is applied as an afterthought and only partly melted, which I personally don't like. Overall: EXCELLENT - top marks and I highly recommend not just the sandwich but Fortuna's in general. I could do a whole post about their caesar wraps and how amazing they are, but I'll just end it here with a big thanks to everyone at Fortuna's for bringing this deliciousness into my life. P.S. the picture I posted was taken mid way through this post and through the sandwich so I unfortunately only had half a sandwich to show and...
Read moreThe food is great, I love it here but for the first time today I experienced horrible customer service with them. I have ordered the same thing for the past 3 years and today it was as if they never heard of what I was ordering which is fine if she’s new but then in the process of making it she took it to the back for a couple minutes and after ordering the second item she stood there talking bad to her coworker as if she did not care she was getting paid to provide great customer service for a place that prides them self in it. To then give me the second item and inferred that she made me something different than what I asked for. I’ll be back and still recommend it to anyone that come through simply for the food and for the fact that small businesses need love but I will be making sure she is not the...
Read moreMy husband grew up in West Port and he talks about these sandwiches so much! When we came back into town for his reunion, it was one of our first stops! He had not eaten here in years and was worried it would be different, but he was so happy the place was basically the same.
We both loved our food, which was freshly prepared right in front of us. The grilled chicken here is especially tasty.
There was plenty of seating and the restaurant was moderately busy (but not crowded).
There was ample, free parking. The staff was helpful and professional. The restaurant was clean. The pricing was fair.
Great spot for lunch if you're in town. We highly recommend their...
