Corner store on 3rd and 80th Street Brooklyn NY. Price are decent the most expensive dish was The spicy big plate chicken m$12.95. I decided to get number #25 Noodle soup w chicken. Was feeling bit yucky today. While I was here I figured let me try some dumplings. #5 crystal shrimp dumplings ..delicious made fresh . I was told poultry is farm to table.

Beef noodles.

I ordered the beef noodles and THiS is what it looks like. 3 pieces of small beef cubes for $13 plus tax. Way overpriced for basically nothing but noodles. And it was very average in top of that. Terrible. Don't bother with this place.

Roach leg found in milk tea drink.

Kathy's is an absolute gem. Found roach leg in my drink. Opened a food safety complaint on 311 as well.

We love dumplings, so we were excited to try out Kathy's Dumplings for dinner recently. Overall, we thought the food was just okay. Fine if you are nearby and have a dumpling craving, but there are better dumplings in neighboring Sunset Park, and Kathy's probably benefits from the fact that there isn't much dumpling competition in the immediate vicinity. We got the pork dumplings, which weren't as flavorful as many we've had before, just salty. The beef pie and pan-fried pork buns were also lacking in flavor, just more meat and salt, and the hot and sour soup was neither hot nor sour. We were expecting a lot more from the great reviews and a place with dumplings in the name, but were a little disappointed. Price isn't too bad though. Not Chinatown pricing, but fair. While we didn't really find the dumplings to be anything special, we really liked the cabbage salad. The vegetables were fresh, and the seasoning was just right. Although we've had other versions we've liked better, the cucumber salad was good too, refreshing and light. While we may have been a little disappointed on the dumpling front, we'd consider going back here to try more salads and also the noodles that we didn't get to this time. Hopefully they'll be as tasty as the cabbage salad.

Side of the restaurant. A little run down, they need a face lift.

Store is in disrepair and needs to be updated. The service is friendly and nice. It wasn't busy so I got my food within 10 minutes. Now talk about the food. The dumplings was so so, not much flavor and the skin was just average. I had better dumplings elsewhere, I really wanted to like this place. Hope they will improve cause there is no other dumplings places in the neighborhood.

My apartment is a sec away from kathy's. As a new at the neighborhood I had to try the famous dumplings.. and guess what?? The food is excellent, generous portions and great prices. The service was fast and friendly. I highly recommended!! Keep up the good job guys. I can't wait to go back.

In the middle of Bay Ridge, a small local eatery of the friendliest staff and masterfully crafted "dumpling dishes". What began as a mere dumpling craving became a showcase of all they could provide! I won't say the places name, but there is a dumpling spot I walked in ready to compare this to, and they surpassed them in every way. The dumplings: sweet, moist, one bite on my end but a nice two bites with the dumpling. We tried the "soup dumplings" as well, better known on the menu as the juicy pork buns. These were a little different than what I'm used to, typically presented in a steam basket, even when I took a bite it was not what I was used to, but then! It was so stuffed with meat, and the broth slowly found its way out, very tasty. Now a woman came in immediately raving about the wonton soup, "best place", "number one", "wonton soup and allllll the veggies". My wife and I couldn't resist and had them throw in the soup as well. The broth is so silky, so subtle in the flavor of the meat and rich with the vegetable, you want to drink it before you can get to anything else. The wonton themselves are handcrafted and unlike any other you will have anywhere! This is easily a new regular spot for us, see you again soon!

The pork dumplings with the spinach juice was a little bit hard on the outside to be fully honest. However the pork and beef dumplings were simply amazing definitely get those I will definitely return back but not get the spinach juice because I didn't appreciate the outside texture of the dumpling.

Very solid Chinese food spot. We picked up food to go and the restaurant looked very clean and…read morespacious though no one was eating in. The food was very fairly priced and the portions were huge. We got the pork soup dumplings, pork fried rice, szechuan chicken (which came with white rice), and pad see ew (which though not listed comes with pork, chicken, and shrimp). Everything was solid, but our favorite was the fried rice which had a ton of flavor. I liked the veggies that were in the chicken dish but there were just way too many of them compared to the chicken and I wasn't crazy about the sauce. The pad see ew wasn't made the traditional way I've had it with soy sauce and oyster sauce. It had some sort of orange sauce that tasted closer to a sweet and sour. It wasn't bad it was just not what I was hoping for. The soup dumplings were solid, no complaints there. And the fried rice was great, lots of flavor. Overall, I liked this place especially for the price but I'd probably order different things if I went back.

I had a taste for Chinese food like good old school. Chinese food and I happen to look on one of…read morethe delivery apps and located this place. I found parking down the block and walked over to the restaurant. It seems like more of a delivery spot because there was no one inside sitting at any of the 5 tables. It's a fairly good size space, very simply decorated, mixed with a cool wall resembling a curio cabinet of treasures. I chose a spot in the middle and went to the restroom which was clean and simple. I noticed there were a lot of takeout orders, from delivery services to local folks picking up their regular dinner. I looked over the menu and decided on salt and pepper wings and an order of shrimp. Fried Rice came out first and it was delicious. I even tasted a hint of salted egg yolk mixed into the egg mixture friefried up with the rice that signature crispiness with the little saltiness.... fantastic. The salt and pepper wings were different than the ones i'm accustomed to though the flavor was amazing.It didn't have the fried garlic, peppers, chilis, and onions that i'm accustomed to being in the dish. They were still flavorful, juicy and crisp and I could tell they cooked them fresh.That was much appreciated. I ended up taking half of my food home because I was stuffed.Thank you Msm Ellen and the Crown Garden crew for a tasty solo dinner.

Pray tell, why would you send me on my way with 3 packets of duck sauce and one container of…read moreketchup for crab Rangoon?? Where is the sweet & sour? Where is the sweet chili? Cheap. There was nothing that I ordered that needed ketchup. Nothing. There wasn't even soy sauce in the bag. Then had the unmitigated gall to charge $22 for the salt baked shrimp and told me I had to pay $5 extra to substitute the lo mein for white rice. Who is eating white rice with shrimp? Girl bye. I'm not paying almost $30 for one meal from a hood Chinese spot. If there's no heat in your establishment, your prices need to be in lowercase. If it looks like you might catch staph in your establishment, your prices need not to be so loud. I also believe they overcharged me. They did have a sign saying that the prices went up, but I think they may have been too cheap to print out a new menu if that was the case. I was going off of what they had on the wall for the general public. So as I stated, I ordered crab Rangoon ($7, allegedly), honey wings ($7, allegedly), a shrimp egg roll ($2, allegedly), spare rib tips with fried rice ($12, allegedly). My total was $31. My assumption is they probably charged me extra for pork fried rice, which I didn't ask him for. I know for a fact they are not charging tax because there's no way that you're forcing people to pay in cash while also charging them for taxes that you don't pay. The crab Rangoon was actually pretty decent even though I didn't have the sauce that comes with it. The honey wings were OK. They actually taste more like honey BBQ. I prefer C&Y honey wings. It's real honey and stay hot for an hour due to the way honey maintains heat. I also don't appreciate when these spots chop up a wing and call it two wings. 1 wing is the entire thing. STINGY. The spare rib tips I don't like and neither do I like their pork fried rice. The rice is a bit bland and I don't like those large spare rib tips. I prefer the boneless spare rib tips that C&Y has. A shrimp roll is a shrimp roll is a shrimp roll. It wasn't too bad and it was actually pretty happy. The shrimp was a little bit larger than those baby shrimp that they normally stuff in shrimp rolls. Their pricing is on par with C&Y yet I don't have no issues paying what they ask and their food is good aside from their lo mein. They are not stingy and have pretty decent customer service unlike the guy who took my order here who paused my order to take another order over the phone and tend to the person behind me. This is what I get for cheating on my spot and being lazy when they both were far af.

I tried the wontons in spicy peanut sauce. It was different because I'm use to chili wontons. The spicy peanut sauce wasn't spicy. The peanut sauce itself is pretty thick, so I would recommend dipping it in the accompanying dipping sauce to balance the flavors. I would try the spicy peanut wontons again. I also tried the pork soup dumplings, which took some time to cook. It arrives very hot, so give it some time to cool off, maybe 5-10 minutes.

It is a chaotic mess for the volume they are trying to do. It's not about adding more manpower, it's about streamlining. Tables are sitting empty while people are on the waitlist (not due to reservations), orders are going to the wrong tables, to-go orders are in disarray and have to be re-verified on multiple orders, and it takes a long time to get some water. The Yelp waitlist is useless here - wait was supposed to be 5-10 minutes and it turned into almost 40. All this could have been avoided with more planning, better organization, and training. Kitchen staff doing their job well. Front of house needs work.
