Great food. Have tried too many to name and they were all terrific! I would definitely go back again and have recommend to many.

Coworkers went for lunch on Thursday and difficult to find what your looking for due to the fact when googling it's a site to order from google and the business also have order inside kiosks show lay out different. Order the sweet and spicy wings naked and fries. Sauce wasn't sweet or spicy, seems to been thin out did taste salty not sure from the wings it's self or the sauce. Fries were ok.

Upbeat African American-owned soul food diner-esk spot on the main drag in Ferguson, with a playful, but very run down, decor. Have counter seating in front of the grill where the food is made, in addition to both booth and table seating Serve "eclectic African American fare from across the country" ranging from po' boys to tacos. Self serve drinks Menu is organized by state of the US that food is based in I got the blackened chicken philly with fries. The fries were perfectly crispy and delicious and the sandwich was incredibly flavorful and fantastic as well. The portion was massive, and I had to take a lot of the food home. This is a soul food spot if there ever was only The staff was incredibly friendly read more

This is a charming little mom and pop restaurant. The fish and chicken were amazing. Shrimp and grits were very tasty.

The food was okay I've heard great things and wanted to check them out, not the best fried shrimp I've had but it was okay. Great service and very friendly atmosphere read more

Cathy's Kitchen - Jumbo Jumbo Fried Shrimp (9) - Seafood Near Me - Ferguson, Missouri

The best restaraunt this side of the Mississippi. Everything is always cooked to perfection, and the staff and atmosphere is amazing. My favorite is the philli cheesesteak, but you literally can't go wrong with any selection. read more

I heard this place was known for epic soul food and decided to give it a try. They have indoor dining, but you have to place your order through their website anyway. This wasn't a big deal, but when they served us our food it was in take out containers even though they knew we were dining in. I did not like that part. I ordered the Cajun chicken pasta and the Cajun fries. I lived in Louisiana for 5 years and I love Cajun food, but I am a little weary of the word when it's attached to food in STL. Cathy's kitchen put my uneasiness to rest. The pasta was phenomenal. It was so flavorful and rich. The Cajun fries were also crispy and delicious. The portion size was very generous (I made two meals out of my food) which made the priciness of the menu more tolerable. I would easily eat here again. read more

It was okay. The voodoo shrimp tasted more of a bbq flavor than spice. I didn't care for them but my husband said that he would definitely come again. Service was just okay. read more

I ordered the Cajun Seafood Pasta mostly because of my love for scallops. Unfortunately, Cathy must have been fresh out of scallops since there was not a single one in my dish. Disappointing. Other than that the dish was good. read more

Cathy's Kitchen - Cajun Seafood Pasta - Seafood Near Me - Ferguson, Missouri

Their seafood pasta was great. One coworker had fish and she said that was good too. Service is self serve. you order at an kiosk and a robot brings you food. Personally you can provide more jobs if there was a waiter.. I'm kinda ole school. Prefer a person. The ambiance was regular. Kinda quiet no music playing softly. Tv show a slide of the owner and all the famous people she know... read more

We did take out for my birthday celebration. We ordered incredibly too much food for the two of us, so we could try everything. I love how their menu is set up by city that Cathy visited. They are doing take out for Covid, I peaked inside on pick up and it seems very cute, diner style on the inside. The take out attendant was very friendly and our order was perfect. I think about that more when I do take out. I don't know about you guys. On to the food! The front runner was definitely the Cajun mac and cheese. I try to stay low carb, but it was my birthday. This max and cheese was EVERYTHING I wanted it to be. Cheesy. Tons of flavor of and a bunch of shrimp. We also got St. Louis voodoo shrimp, I do not know what goes into voodoo sauce, but it was delightful. Not spicy, but So. Much. Flavor. So good. I even saved the slaw for the next day. Loved it. My friend enjoyed her catfish platter. And if that's not enough, I also ordered the shrimp chicken breast with asparagus. If I wanted to stay keto, I could have ordered just this. Since we had so much food, I definitely got into this the next day. The chicken was delicious, juicy, cooked to perfection, then smothered in an Alfred sauce. I prefer to eat in, but if I do carry out again, Cathy's will be on my list! read more

I went today as a first time and was not pleased I ordered the Cajun seafood pasta the man told me it was supposed to be to be shrimp crawfish and scallops there was only bite size shrimp no crawfish also it was very blend no flavor and the chicken wings was blend also no seasoning not pleased at all ppl hype this place up for nothing read more

My first time at Cathy's Kichen will not be my last. It's like I found my happy place. Everything I ate was hot and delicious.the service was very personal the young man who fixed my food came to our table to make sure we had everything we needed. My sisters and enjoyed our lunch time together there and we commented on the diversity of the Diner We are now planning a group lunch for our family to come and enjoy a taste of Ferguson. I am so glad I suggested Cathy's for our lunch outing.I did GOOD! GOOD EATING HUE COLLINS read more

I went to her new location in Dellwood the place is absolutely beautiful. So me and my guy and I ordered on the kiosk. As we placed the order and it's time to check out, we saw that the tip was automatically added to the order. I don't mind tipping, but let me see what the food tastes like first. I get the order they pack in bags like get your order and go. So we got the food, and it was horrible feathers on the chicken, and you can tell the grease was old because the chicken was dark. The shrimp has gotten smaller, and the batter was so hard that when you bite the shrimp, the batter fell off. I had a bad experience at the other location, just thought because it's new things will be fresher and better. There is no need to get on here and defend your restaurant. Just do better and more consistent and make every experience the same. read more

Taste of food was great. Staff was hospitable and we even got to meet the owners daughter who also worked there. She was pleasant and spoke nicely to us. Even though there's no indoor dining, I enjoyed my meal on their back porch which was okay too. Appreciate the service and I'll definitely be back. read more

Food: 4 Stars Service: 4 Stars Cathy's Kitchen had received so much praise over the last couple of years, so I decided to check them out myself. The restaurant had just opened their doors and I immediately noticed the poor ventilation and dried grease covering every inch of the venue. Dust settled on the ledges and the tables and chairs were tacky upon the touch. Being the first customers of the day, we were immediately greeted and handed cups to fill up at their refreshment station... except that 2 of their drink options were labeled as "Out of Service". We placed our orders and I watched the kitchen from afar as they prepped our meals. I could see that their shrimp were fresh and not frozen or pre-cooked. (I definitely appreciated that.) After about 10 minutes, my eyes started watering from all the smoke coming from the kitchen... The poor ventilation literally had me in tears. Needless to say, our food was fantastic. Unfortunately, that's not what we remembered when we left. All we could think about was the grime and smoke in the restaurant and how we all smelled like a vat of grease afterwards. I rushed home, showered, and threw my clothes in the wash... I'd give this place 4 stars if it weren't for my burning eyes and smelly clothes. You may have the some great food to serve, but your establishment needs a hearty deep cleaning and your ventilation system needs to get checked. read more

I recommend it to anyone who come to St. Louis Missouri that they go and eat at Kathy's kitchen on South Florissant. Thank you Kathy for all of your wonderful work, and all your service to our community God bless you and keep you in the mighty name of Jesus. read more

Food was okay, not what it used to be by far. Shrimp and Grits okay I've had better here. Voodoo shrimp was tasty, husbands chicken Cajun pasta didn't have much chicken this time. Cajun fries were yummy. Seems they adapted to COVID protocol and never returned to the nice quaint neighborhood restaurant they used to be. Credit or Debit only and Self serve even when dining in. Plastic utensils an containers and paper boxes. Dining in. Some workers seemed to have more task than others. Concentrating more on the carry outs, (which was moving ) than the people in the restaurant and the orders on location. read more

Ok this is my Fourth time here and normally the mom or dau would be the cooks and i guess they Upgraded a host to be a cook and she Cant cook!!!! I had 2 cajun chicken pastas and the cajun philly. We threw most of it away because the chicken wasnt well cooked on Any of our food and it was my moms special treat bday meal. Food was so gross i wont be back sorry. They used crab boil seasonings instead of cajun which gave it a puke taste. So awful omg!!!!! read more

The food was all right definitely have had better but also have had worse. Wanted to try their banana pudding cake. However they were out for the day. Thought it was cute that the little robot delivered our food however was disappointed that there's like poor ventilation in the restaurant, we left smelling like fried food and that definitely was a turn off. read more

She can COOK. Great food ALWAYS. Dine in or take out. Cooked with quality and TASTE. I've eaten here more times than I can tell you. If your mouth is prepared for great food you will be satisfied. Continued success Cathy :) read more

Excellent restaurant which is the centerpiece for culinary in STL. The food was awesome and all my seafood, chicken tasted similar to the best from each region. I thought we were in New Orleans after trying the gumbo, red beans rice & barbecued corn! This is my go-to spot for seafood & regional dishes. The service was remarkable & very customer-focused. Plus, I can sample wine next door at the Midwest wine bar since all the food is cooked to order :) read more

Best food in Ferguson! Love coming here with the family. Tase like it's 100% made with love!!!

Visiting from Vegas for work and decided to find a soul food joint before I headed back. Didn't really understand the ordering process when I walked through the door but a gentleman behind the counter gave me directions shortly after entering the establishment. Options were to use the QR code at the table or use one of the kiosks to place my order. Due to the glare I was unsuccessful in using the QR code but ordering at the kiosk was super easy. Ordered the seafood mac n cheese with extra jumbo shrimp. I was a little nervous when it arrived with the smaller elbow noodles but it was super cheesy and packed with flavor. The serving size was enough to take home some leftovers but since I was boarding the plane in an hour or so I ate as much as I could. Glad I found this spot and I'll be sure to stop by during my next trip. Always a pleasure to support Black owned businesses! read more

Disappointing! I went through Uber eats/tamper seal was unbroken, so mistakes happened at Cathey's. I ordered $19 voodoo shrimp & $17 3 wings & gumbo--DID NOT RECEIVE GUMBO. They were out of short cake, did NOT receive blue cheese dressing, did NOT received extra roll that I paid for or the roll that came with the wings (were salty). I requested sauce on the shrimp to be placed on the side & it was NOT, so shrimp arrived soggy. To add injury to insult--the can sodas were warm. This service was BEYOND BAD IT WAS SAD. I tried calling 3X, but no one answered the phone. BEYOND DISAPPOINTING. read more

Cathy's Kitchen - Seafood Near Me - Ferguson, Missouri

Great seafood list! I had the Catfish nuggets, shrimp and mac & cheese and the Chicken Philly. The catfish nuggets and shrimp Mac and cheese is the best I had in STL. The both had taste and flavor. There wasn't anything wrong with the chicken Philly but the onions, peppers, and carrots??? Were bit large and crunchy. I will be ordering again specially the shrimp ans mac!!! read more

The vibes were immaculate and the food is the best I've had in St. Louis. We had the gumbo, seafood mac, and seafood pasta, they were all delicious. Cathy is super friendly, this place is definitely worth the stop!! read more

This place is CRAZY GOOD! I was in town from SoCal on business and wanted to try something fun and different. Cathy's will not disappoint! I had the catfish tacos...unbelievable! You HAVE to get the corn. Nothing comes close to when that seasoning hits your mouth...wow! Cathy was there cooking away with a smile and a greeting. Everyone was so nice and made us feel at home. By far my fav in St Louis! I'm coming back again and again. read more

To be honest, I was slightly shocked to see that I hadn't posted a review for Cathy's Kitchen yet. This is one of my favorite restaurants in STL. I dropped in while I was on that side of town for work one afternoon, and ordered the crawfish & shrimp mac and cheese and a side of broccoli (because, you know, balance). I was surprised at how big and juicy the shrimp were, and how fresh the crawfish tasted. The mac was also perfect - nice and creamy and cheesy, without the hint of flour from an undercooked roux. I loved that meal, and remembered it fondly when the world shut down. I was ELATED when my sister opened up Door Dash one day and saw that they delivered. We've ordered them at least five times since, and it's been our go to "special meal" for friends. We've run up and down the menu, from pasta, to salad, to tacos, to sandwiches, and all of it is delicious and shockingly well-presented for take out. Whether I've ordered something as hearty as fried shrimp on mac and cheese, or as healthy as grilled salmon over mixed greens, every meal has been delightful. read more

I had the catfish and fries and it was hot and delicious. It was my first time eating at the restaurant, and I will be back for more.

This was my first time to Cathy's Kitchen and I enjoyed my visit there. You have to park on the back or side, but you can come in through the back also. You walk in and they will seat you or you can seat yourself, you get to see the cooks, right there from your seat preparing your food and everyone else s. I will tell you they have separate menu in the morning time 8 a.m. to 10:50 a.m. is the breakfast time and then they have lunch or dinner menu at 11 am. I love watching the cook while he cooks the food. The facility is clean and nice, can get a bit crowded at lunch and noisy, but you can still hold a conversation while enjoying your meal there. The places look s nice and they have a TV you can watch while sitting at the bar, I like that! Better than just looking at four walls like some places, you can watch the cooks or TV while at that bar and still conversation with each other or make a new friend. I do know they take credit cards, and they have a nice wine and beer selection also. They tend to try and create cuisines based on cities of the U.S. they represent different cities like New Mexico Texas, St Louis, Chicago, New Orleans, Memphis and prepare that particular locations popular cuisine. You gotta try Cathy's Kitchen when you come in the Ferguson area, you can smell the sweet aromas if the fish and other foods cooking when you walk through the door and try the fries. Everything smells good like a kitchen should! I got a chance to meet Cathy and her husband and they are really down to earth people, I really enjoyed the food. I enjoyed my tri fish sandwiche which comes with three tyoes of ish with cole slaw, onions and tarter sauce. Those Honey and Lime chicken wings were awesome even though that was a little complaint that they were small, I like my chicken wings small with tons of flavor at least that way I feel like they're not loaded with hormones All in all, I will be going to Cathys Kitchen more now that I had a chance to visit. It is a little distance to make my regular spot, but I'll try to get there at least once a month so I can enjoy that food and try the menu, I really like Cathy's Kitchen. read more
