It depends on what "Go to file" actually means.

  1. Switch between already opened files: Alt-Left or Alt-Right to go back/forward one file in the document tree.

  2. Open file in the same directory: Strg-O opens the "File open" dialog with the directory, where the current document is in.

  3. Use the file system browser on the left panel

Most probably you are looking for Quick Open, which is bound to the shortcut Ctrl+Shift+O by default. If this does not work for you, your Kate version is too old and you first have to enable the Quick Open plugin to get this functionality.

You may also be interested in the Projects Plugin, which extends Quick Open quite nicely.
