    We had a wonderful dinner. We celebrated our 54th Anniversary. We have been going to Fortunas for 46 years. The food is great (my favorite is the Veal Parm). The portion size is generous. I have never been disappointed with a meal there. Our server was great. Very friendly and efficient. The family always gives us a warm welcome. We will be back again.

    When we were seated there was wine on the seat. I switched a chair and then notified the bus girl. She said ok but never came to wipe the seat. The waiter didn’t know anything about wine menu. The bread was just white bread without any butter or olive oil/vinegar to dip in. Disappointing.

    Very disappointed in this place. We made reservations about a week before getting into town and the hours that they are opened are ridiculous. We asked for no carrots on salad and it came loaded with them. Way too much dressing also. Mushrooms on Spaghetti had a burnt taste to them and gnocchi were overcooked. Fool me once……

    Food was delicious. I was a very enjoyable meal. There aren't many italian restaurants left in Little Italy, Niagara Falls.

    Service was slow. The waitress wasn't engaging or particularly attentive but competent. Some better dessert offerings, meaning more pasticceria, would enhance the menu. Main courses were outstanding and a loud party behind us, seemingly friends of one of the owners, dampened our experience. We may give it another chance provided we get seated in a quieter area with more attentive server(s).
