Interior seating
Sherry Y.

We went to Katy's for a midweek reunion lunch with the family. Ordering was pretty streamlined, and it's helpful to always see the menu in Chinese and English- great time to practice both, particularly with my parents there to correct pronunciation. We usually go with a Sichuan dry stir-friend green bean, eggplant, a noodle dish, and whatever protein suits our fancy that day. I think they were out of an appetizer we wanted that day, but we always over order, so it wasn't a problem. They have booster seats and high chairs, so young families can rejoice. Seating options include cafe-style tables, a few family tables, and a few mid-sized booths. The menu is fairly extensive, and they have several stir-fried noodle dishes, noodle soups, and stir fries. I believe our stir fries automatically came with a side of steamed rice for the table, but you may want to double check with your server. There are also lots of fruit teas, bobas, and shakes if that's what you're craving! Can't speak to that since we primarily get water whenever we eat here: we always leave really full. Parking is in downtown OP which means there are nearby garages, some parking lots near Old Navy, and the Target parking garage. There are also limited street parking lots behind Lake near the train station stops. Be careful during weekends and holidays as it does get quite busy.

Nice interior with weird tasting dishes .Tried 4 dishes and only 1 was to my liking( beef noodle soup and the dumplings.

Beef Noodle Soup

Easily one of my favorite spots! Good food, good service! The portions are generous and prices are very good!

Chicken Fried Noodle with green beans added

Great food, quick service, fun atmosphere. I'd come back. Despite what some reviews said, the orange chicken was delicious. As was the chicken fried rice.

I'm very happy that we got the chance to try Katy's Dumplings while we were here. The food was really good. I tried some of everybody's food in our party and everything was delicious. We had kids with us and they ate a little bit of everything too, which is always high praise if you have little ones! I have to say the orange chicken was really good. Usually I get kind of bored with orange chicken but this was very tasty, the beef fried noodles was also surprisingly good. I wasn't sure that would be my cuppa tea, but it totally was outstanding but they did get the job done. Just not overly friendly.

Had high expectations since its not our first time here but very much disappointed on the texture and the taste itself.

We've been craving Katy's taste today since we come here often, but today was a very disappointing experience. This was our spot, but for some reason the food is not the same. Food seems like a fast food chinese place that has been neglected. Texture and taste has been compromised. Scallion pancake seemed like its been reheated 3x over and burnt. Noodles was oily and not fresh as it used to be. The bao seemed like its been left out for an hour and give n to us. Over all negative star!! Close this place pls before some One get sick!! Garbage food

Ask the Community - Katy's Dumpling - Oak Park

Do you all have soup filled dumplings?

Yes we do. It is called Juicy Steam Bao or Soup Dumplings.

Thank you for answering my last question. I want to bring my friend after enjoying it so much. Do a lot of the recipes have peanuts? She is allergic.

Is this the same as the one in Westmont?

Yes. It is under the same ownership and the receipts are same. But the Oak Park location currently are out of the Shredded pancake right now. We will bring this popular dish back very soon!

Is it BYOB?

Yes!

This place is more like 4.5 stars. We always wanted to try this place so slid in to see what was…read morecracking! They have Chinese, Thai & Japanese cuisine along with hibachi service. We were there for some Chinese food. They give you complimentary hot tea when you sit down. The service was ok at best. Nice inside not very big but it's clean and has some cozy booth type seats along with open table seating. We ordered some Jumbo shrimp fried rice, Singapore noodles, pad se eew and a sampler appetizer platter. The appetizer platter came with 2 egg rolls, 2 dumplings, 2 bbq ribs, 2 shrimp toast, 2 crab Rangoons & 2 fried shrimp. The egg rolls were fresh and full of meat!! Very crispy and delicious! 7/10 I didn't have the dumplings I don't care for them myself but my wife likes them she gave them a 6.7/0 she said she's had better. The Ribs had a nice bite and flavor to them just a tad tough for me. 6/10 The shrimp toast was my favorite of the appetizers the were crispy not greasy and the shrimp was definitely there. I enjoyed the flavor of them. 8/10 The crab Rangoon however were a disappointment to me. They were definitely missing the green onion and crab! lol. Mostly cream cheese but fried well 4/10. The fried shrimp were ok. Average 5/10 They give you a lot of food for your money! As all the dishes had a great amount of protein in them! They don't skimp on the meat at all. The jumbo shrimp fried rice a great flavor and nice texture. You can taste smokiness in it. 7.5/10 The Singapore Noodles was loaded with shrimp, chicken and bbq pork, egg and veggies. It had a kick to it from the curry very flavorful and the texture of the noodles were spot on! 7.5/10 the pad se eew was also loaded with beef! (You have the option of protein) the beef was very tender, the sauce had a nice spice level and the noodles were perfectly cooked. 8/10 all in all i would definitely recommend checking them out! My bill was a little over $63 and well worth it. I'm definitely returning to them. Remember ALL reviews are SUBJECTIVE

My party…read morearrived at 6:55 p.m., and I asked about our table three different times between 7:00 and 7:30. Each time, I was given a different excuse. First, I was told they were waiting for a table to open up. Then they were waiting on a cook. Finally, a staff member said the people at our reserved table were still eating and they were waiting for them to get up. When I asked when our table would actually be ready, she laughed, threw her hands up, and said she didn't know. What made the situation even worse was watching other customers walk in and be seated while we continued to wait. From what I observed, Black families were waiting extended periods of time, while White and Mexican customers were seated much more quickly. A party of 15 that arrived well after us was even seated before my group. I am deeply disappointed and disgusted by the treatment my family received on my mother's birthday. This would have been her first hibachi experience, and instead it was ruined by poor customer service and what appeared to be unfair treatment. I will never return and would not recommend this restaurant based on my experience.

Ok, ok, ok - Jess don't mess because the best don't mess around when it comes to cooking great…read morefamily style Chinese food...Sorry Jess, I should have bumped this review up to 5 stars long time ago because it is very well deserved...our favorites are: - the egg rolls (could use just a little more peanut buttah) - the crab Rangoon has sooo much cream chese) - the shrimp egg foo yung (fluffy and the gravy is served on the side) - French cubed steak with tomatoes - think Salpicao and this is 5 stars - the Yushan eggplant with minced pork (this is outstanding!!), it's a Chef's specialty dish - make sure to ask for chop sticks and chili oil - fyi, it is BYOB, so don't forget They have 1,000 items, just check out their menu. Excellent and friendly service, come on down and there's plenty of street parking. :)

I added boba and it was chewy and sweet as well. The thai ice coffee is made stroong but was pretty good. my husband said it was too sweet. the Vegetable Lo Mein was not bad but the vegetables used seemed really old. the noodles were good but I pretty much took out all the vegetables except for the broccoli. Would recommend getting the lo mein with a different topping. We got takeout. The only complaint I have would be how the drinks were packaged. They put straws in the drinks and put plastic wrap to cover the tops (I assume to stop it from spilling) but I would've preferred putting the straws in myself. They also put the drinks in a brown, paper bag but filled it with ice (to keep the drinks cold I assume, which they were). The ice was melting and I didn't know there was ice in there with the drinks so there was a puddle on my floor and I spilled the melted ice water on myself when I lifted the bag. It wasn't a huge deal but thought I would mention in case anyone plans to buy drinks for takeout.

There use to be a very nice women that answered the phone who was peppy and welcoming but she went away years ago and the new phone support could care less. The delivery use to be very fast. Like when you hang up the phone they're at the door. Not now. And when you do get the order it's almost always wrong and missing something. When you call back they tell you they'll send it out again but the driver takes his time knowing it's a mistake order. But the biggest problem now is the food quality. It drastically went down. Everything used to be fresh. The meat good cuts. The veggies crisp. And great sauce creations. Now, the opposite. Food is soggy. Over cooked. The fried items like crab Rangoon and egg rolls are twice cooked and mushy. The breaded chicken is 75% breading and no chicken. Like fried dough balls. We liken the food quality to frozen dinners from the grocery store. The last thing to put this over the top and we'll never go back, while we were waiting for our food in store, we noticed two bad, gross things about the kitchen. One, someone cooking was hacking and coughing all over the place. No face mask. No gloves. Two, we watched as one of the cooks took crab rangoons from the counter, red cooked them, then dumped them back in a box. One fell on the floor and they picked it up and put it back in the box! Not sure what happened with this place but sadly it's not what it used to be. We've given them years of support and praise in the past and tried continuing with them even after things went down thinking they would get better again or it was just an off night. But no more.
