" Cathay Kitchen is absolutely a fantastic choice for Chinese food enthusiasts! I love their varied menu which includes both traditional dishes and modern twists. Every dish I've tried has been wonderfully flavorful! We recently had the kung pao chicken, and it was deliciously spicy! The only downside was the wait time during peak hours, but the food is definitely worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Dining here was a delightful experience! The ambiance was cheerful, and the staff was welcoming from the moment we entered. We tried their house special fried rice and dumplings, and both were delicious! The flavors stood out without being too overpowering. I also appreciated the generous amounts of food. Overall, I believe Cathay Kitchen has earned a new frequent visitor! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had dinner at Cathay Kitchen recently, and it was an incredible experience! The crab rangoon was so flavorful, perfectly crunchy on the outside and creamy inside. I also tried their Kung Pao Chicken, and it was nicely spiced. Plus, the staff was attentive and friendly, making sure we had everything we needed. I highly recommend going during dinner hours to enjoy the lovely ambiance. I’ll definitely be returning soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Cathay Kitchen is the only Chinese restaurant where I consistently find myself returning. The food is always vibrant and fresh, with just the right blend of spices. I simply adore their crab fried rice; every grain is flavorful! My only critique would be that sometimes the service is slow, but not enough to ruin the experience. If you’re searching for a great Chinese meal, this is truly the spot to visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" I recently tried their beef and broccoli, and it was one of the best interpretations I've had! The beef was tender and the sauce wasn’t overly salty. Kudos to the chefs for preparing the vegetables just right, still crunchy and flavorful! The restaurant had a relaxed vibe, with sufficient spacing between tables. Service-wise, they were polite, though a bit slow during busy hours. Overall, a very lovely meal! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family recently celebrated a birthday at Cathay Kitchen and it was fantastic! The staff did a wonderful job accommodating us, and the food was delicious! We ordered a variety of items like crab rangoon, sweet and sour chicken, and their special fried rice. Everything was cooked perfectly, and the atmosphere was festive. Highly recommend for any occasion! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a bad experience on my latest visit. First, the wait was much longer than expected, and when the food arrived, it was lukewarm – definitely not the ideal way to enjoy some dumplings. The crab rangoon was also inconsistent; some were crispy, while others were soggy. Overall, I’d say that this place typically has great service and food, but my latest experience was a letdown.
