I random spider I found at the booth was more appetizing than the food here.
Saw this on IG some time ago and saved it in my list of places to go because the food looked absolutely delicious but it ended up being a disappointment.
We spent way too much money on mediocre food.

“By far the best Chinese restaurant in the area.”
By far the best Chinese restaurant in the area. Everything is amazing. The three chili fish, mapo tofu, chow fun and crab Rangoons are our favorites.

“It’s located in downtown Oak Park with modern decore and laid back atmosphere.”
It’s located in downtown Oak Park with modern decore and laid back atmosphere. I ordered the popular beef noodle soup and it was everything the other reviews said and more. My daughter enjoyed the spring rolls and the fried dumplings. Definitely going back and inviting others.

“Katy's Dumplings was outstanding.”
Katy's Dumplings was outstanding! Quite a few vegetarian and gluten free options available. Highly recommend the gluten free Eggplant w. Soy Bean Paste and the veggie Szechuan Noodle Soup, a delicious curry dish, both unique and exploding with flavor.

Wow. Amazing dumplings as the name implies. The pork and chive traditional Chinese dumplings (I like them as potstickers so fried 😋) are amazing. Really enjoy the traditional American-Chinese food selections. The general tsao chicken was amazing. Was particularly impressed with the grandma fried rice. And they’re passion fruit lime iced team is incredible. Wish I had better pictures but I ate it all so fast! Highly recommend this spot.

Delicious! We ordered the Beef Noodle Soup (they even split into 2 bowls for us!). We like spicy food and this certainly delivered. We also ordered a variety of dumplings based on India's recommendations and we were glad we did, they were all great choices. Food came quickly, service was great, we will be back.

The best beef noodle soup I’ve ever had! So spicy and savory with chewy handmade noodles. And the staff are so warm and friendly and made the dining experience safe for us. Thanks Katy’s Dumplings!
