We always get take out here and the food is consistently delicious. The pesto chicken and dip sandwiches were perfect - the meat was melt in your mouth good on the dip, I didn't try the pesto chicken as I filled up on everything else, but everyone else said it was just as good as the rest of the food. Perfect bread that is chewy but not too soft or hard and isn't soggy even if it takes us a bit to get it home. Good portions of the Mac and cheese and Frickles, varied choice of things as sides for the sandwich was a huge bonus, and the ranch that came with the Frickles was clearly house-made and went perfectly with them. The thing that I always look forward to though is the fried Brie salad. Go for the extra Brie - it makes it. This is the only place I'll order a salad over everything else, but it's that good and more than enough no matter how hungry I am. We've ordered online and over the phone, staff are polite, friendly, and always get our special requests right (sauce on the side, food sensitivities). You won't find a better dinner consistently at this price. read more

The food and service was excellent. The calamari was seasoned perfectly. The crab dip and bacon burger was delicious. When in town again, I will definitely dine here again. read more

We decided to come in and have lunch on Tuesday at 12pm. We were greeted by one of the servers. She brought over some bottled water and asked if we'd like anything else to drink. We never really got a proper introduction so I am not sure what her name was. I chose to go with the frickles and chicken sandwhich. My boyfriend chose the Mac n and cheese with a side of fries. The frickles came out quickly. They were fresh and tasty. The burger and mac and cheese came out shortly after that. The Mac and cheese was HUGE! The presentation was the only thing that was impressive. It was a little on the salty side and overall was not very good. The side of fries was small but typical. The chicken sandwich was very good. I was impressed with how good it was. The Granny Smith apple coleslaw that came on it was delicious. The one downside of the sandwich was the bread it came on, you must eat it quick so the bread doesn't get soggy. The chicken breast came panko crusted and was cooked perfectly. Now the restaurant setting itself is pretty big. The restaurant was clean. There was a bar to sit at as well with an okay size of liquor selection. Overall,the service was just okay. The server did offer a refill which is important but other than that she didn't spend much time at the table. She was running around everywhere and we kind of waited around for her to bring a box and our bill. It was not very busy either. The only thing that would bring me back would be the chicken sandwich. read more

While traveling through California, my boyfriend and two best friends stopped in at KIN in Windsor, and it was a fantastic experience! The ambiance was warm and inviting, making it the perfect spot for a relaxing evening. It was a slow night, which only added to the cozy atmosphere. Our waitress was amazing--attentive, friendly, and made us feel right at home. We decided to order multiple appetizers and share them family style, and every dish was outstanding. The chicken taquitos were flavorful and perfectly crisp, the risotto was rich and creamy, the fried pickles were a crunchy delight, and the spinach artichoke dip was everything you want from a classic comfort dish. KIN delivered in every way--great food, excellent service, and a wonderful vibe. Whether you're a local or just passing through like we were, this is a spot you don't want to miss! read more

While staying at a timeshare with my Sis, we discovered this great spot for dinner in the town square. Since we can be snooty foodies at times, finding a good restaurant in a small town can be dicey. But we were pleasantly surprised by the quality/variety of their menu . We owe a lot to our waitress who let us sample several wines before deciding. She really took good care of us. We started with two types of chicken wings-- bbq and truffled infused -- both were excellent. We almost sampled some nice fried calamari that wasn't greasy. For an entree the short ribs with polenta was prepared well and very satisfying. Everyone on our enjoyed their meals-- including a hefty juicy burger with quality fries and a unique fried Brie salad with chicken- yum! Definitely worth checking out and hope you get Katie if you go - she's one of a kind. read more

Found this gems on the Yelp review and give a try. So impressive with the service, foods and ambiance. The foods were amazing and I loved their Lasagna.

Great service (thanks Katie), amazing food, and spectacular service! We had their "frikles" (fried pickles)...so tasty! My French dip was to die for; so much tender meat, amazing garlic as jus, and the roll was perfectly soft! We sat outside, but it was so tastefully done. The menu choices were plentiful and everything chosen at our table tasted so well!! Definitely worth a visit!! read more

Our family absolutely loves Kin. We dine here regularly. You cannot go wrong! Our favorites are: pizza, burrata plate, hummus appetizer, caesar salad with chicken and the beet salad with chicken. The seasonal soups are so tasty!Everything we have tried is delicious. We love the family friendly atmosphere and menu. Our kids ask to go to Kin weekly. read more

We visit Windsor several times a year and, lately KIN each trip. It has grown into our favorite restaurant. This time it was a late lunch --- usually dinner. It was quieter this time. Appreciated. This time, we had the warm crab dip (huge and delicious) appetizer and two tasty 1/2 salads (beet and caesar). With our senior appetites, they were plenty large enough to stuff us, as the crab dip/bread almost did that alone. So good. I also had a draft 805, which is becoming my standard in all our visits to KIN so far. Our server was Emily, who was busy all over but took the time to converse with us. She was very friendly, so we got a fun picture with her. She took the time to help us find a different brew and helped us get the right appetizer (partially due to dietary issues). In addition, we had an extended talk with the owner as we sat on the bar side this time, as opposed to the back room. Delightful man. Pictures of him with supporters when he opened, in the back area on the way to the restrooms. Also, for everyone's treat, the back room has some colorful art pieces of renderings. The restaurant is family owned and right across from the large Town Green, where people-watching is a delight! We'll be back soon. Every dish we've had at KIN has been a hit and every server we've had the pleasure of working with has been friendly, welcoming and very good at their craft. We enjoy the welcoming atmosphere -- feels like home. read more

KIN Windsor really needs a better sign out front: it's easy to overlook it when driving past. That's a shame. because it's definitely worth noticing. The menu has a great variety of dishes without seeming overwhelming. Everything we had was delicious - in fact, when my mother and I ate there, she liked the Hawaiian BBQ wings so much that she insisted we go again for lunch the next day. I had the lasagna, which seemed like it was assembled to order rather than cut from a pan - the beef and pork Bolognese was delicious. Our only nitpick was that the restaurant seemed a little short-staffed, so our wait was a bit longer than we would have liked. But we will definitely be back the next time we pass through Windsor. read more

Kin was a good experience, not exceptional, but I take it as a place that is consistently good and there's nothing wrong with that . We were a party of 12 and we were able to make a reservation in which they put us in the back where it was semi private and we were the only customers in there. Everything looked amazing on the menu and on Yelp so it was difficult to decide. Luckily my family let me try some of their things so here's everything I tried. KIN BURGER: this is what I ordered and I was not disappointed. I ordered it without cheese and with the sauce on the side and I imagine if you got it as is it'd be much better than my version. The bacon was my favorite part, it was crunchy and flavorful and the burger was cooked perfectly to medium rare. The sweet potato toes were VERY good and the perfect balance of sweet and salty AHI SALAD: this looked amazing, but the flavor was underwhelming FRUIT CRUMBLE (LEMON BLUEBERRY): this was actually really good, especially with the scoop of vanilla on top BAKED HOT CHOCOLATE: so my step sister admitted that this is the reason she comes to this place so we ordered 4 to share among the table. I immediately felt overwhelmed with chocolate and all though I thought it was too much I kept going back for more lol, I think I would have preferred vanilla Icecream on the side to balance the deep chocolate flavor CINNAMON SUGAR CHURROS: this was honestly my favorite dessert and I had no intention of trying it but there was leftover so I went for it. I chose to dip it in raspberry sauce since I already had so much chocolate. The sauce was yummy but the churro was nice and warm and gooey on the inside. It probably was undercooked but I loved it lol COSMO: I drank some of my step mom's blood orange cosmo and it was really bitter and citrusy , not my fav but not bad. Overall we had a good experience. We were able to have our own space to be as loud as we wanted and we hung out for a bit after and they did not rush us to leave which was very kind. The staff was also extremely sweet and patient with us. read more

Not a place I would rush back to. The service was okay, the food was okay but overall the experience wasn't worth what it cost. We split a pizza and salad and both were meh, even though the description made them sound great. We discovered the parmesan cheese shaker had moldy cheese in it. I get it, things happen like this at times. However, when we brought it to the attention to the server, it was a 'oh that happened again' kind of response. If a restaurant is just refilling food containers that go directly to the patrons without checking them, or cleaning them, then I will conclude it's worse in the kitchen where patrons are not allowed. I have a zero chance of returning here. read more

Went for happy hour. The pizza was so good and I had the bartenders drink if the day. I don't remember the name but it was really good. Service was great read more

Had a late lunch early dinner at Kim Windsor yesterday as let me tell you, I will definitely be back to try everything else. I only had a half and cesar salad with grilled chicken and it was well portioned. My sister had the Mac and cheese pizza and she so generously handed over a piece. Definitely a unique kind of pizza, so delicious. They have inside dining going on as well as outside but we decided to eat inside since we were outside all day. Cool, refreshing and they had the a/c going on with some classic oldies and wanted me to stay longer. read more

The food was great. I had the pear and Bree sandwich with some fries. The sandwich was very delicious and the fries were made to perfection. The service was very good. The waitpeople were very nice. My only complaint was that the acoustics in the restaurant were bad so it was difficult to hear my friend when we were talking, otherwise it was a great place read more

sat at the bar for a drink with my husband after a date night. He ordered a beer and I got an espresso martini. A couple sips in I noticed something in my drink, after further investigation... dead fruit flies ... they were floating in my drink probably around 15. we flagged the bar tender asap and he was shocked and didn't where they came from. a manager never came by. I felt so sick. I emailed the restaurant and never heard back. we haven't been back since. read more

I've hesitated to write this because I don't like to be negative but I must be honest. We visited with a small party of 3 on a Sunday evening in November, they were busy but appeared to be well staffed. A young women took our orders, I asked about the corkage fee which she quoted $10 then disappeared for some time. We waited for the other beverages inordinately long and over a full 20 minutes or more before opening our wine. We ordered a number of dishes, crab dip, wings, wedge salads and a pizza. The bread pudding was delicious. I was not impressed with the dining area beside the bar room, felt crowded, noisy and not suited for intimate conversations with our party. Now the food was good, no complaints, however they completely forgot one salad. So my review is mainly regarding service, it wasn't good, and I feel with the amount of staff we should have received better service. This was our first visit and impressions are everything. We strive to support local businesses and we feel this was not reciprocated knowing all of the choices we have in this vast county. In paying the tab, I was presented with an electronic signature device where I could not review the itemized bill until after running the card. I saw afterwards receiving my receipt by text I was overcharged for the corkage fee by $5, a $15 fee. The staff is in need of courtesy training. I can't see myself returning. read more

I have lived in Windsor for 25 years. We dine at Kin once a week, be it dinner with a friend, family members or just lunch with my grandson and daughter. I've also recommended this to many of my customers heading to Windsor inquiring- where to dine. I brought my mother here for dinner. We ordered a glass of wine each, I ordered a Cobb salad - my mom ordered a dinner salad and entree. The wine never came - my Cobb salad showed up, but mom's salad never arrived. About 20 minutes into my salad, I asked about the wine? It was poured and sitting at the bar. The server forgot to bring it. I then asked a food runner about my mom's dinner salad? The server forgot it! Once it arrived she ate her salad, but the entree never made it. I was now finished with my Cobb salad. I asked and the server about the missing entree, the server said she didn't know she ordered one? It was a Teriyaki chicken dish. It came out so fast thereafter that it looked like it was floating in teriyaki sauce. Mom didn't eat it. I called the manager 2 days later, but she said she wasn't there and I should have reported it that night. Also that it is possible the server was having a bad night. It's been 8 months, and we never returned. I post this because I'm a local and we do not have many Windsor restaurants to choose from. If you have a bad night at this restaurant.....report it immediately! read more

Barbecue food is very good at Kin, Big menu with a variety of flavors, Fast and friendly service

I've been going to Kin with family and friends for quite awhile now. I've done both dine in and takeout, and have been satisfied with both. Sometimes, like on a Friday or Saturday, when they are the busiest, there may be a wait, but overall, the service and food have been pretty consistent. Some of my favorites are the Mac Daddy pizza, Frickles, seafood, pear and brie sandwich, beet salad and soup. Their menu has a lot of good choices. read more

Great Saturday night dinner! We didn't have reservations and were seated within 5 minutes, and our server was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu, suggesting several items that were her favorites. Our group had the mushroom burger with garlic fries, the shrimp and cheesy grits? The beet salad, and the lemon gnocchi. We also ordered the brussel sprouts. Let's just say that nothing was left on our plates...except the brussel sprouts, and I believe that was because it all came out at once. Our food came out in around 10 minutes, and everything was delicious--the gnocchi was not as lemony as we had anticipated and had a creamy mushroom sauce that was sooo good! The beet salad had a light, dressing and lots of gold and red beet pieces. There was a slight licorice flavor on the backside of the dressing, but definitely not overpowering. Our friends had the burger and fries and the shrimp and grits, and they loved every bit of their meals...though if you order a burger medium rare, be prepared for it to be closer to the rare than medium. I don't mind that, but some may. The restaurant was busy, but not too busy, and while people were nicely dressed, there was a casual vibe as well. We didn't feel under dressed and we were wearing casual/sporty dress. Overall, it was a great meal, and we would definitely come back to eat here again! read more

We met some friends here so we had a party of six. We had reservations and were seated promptly. We had a variety of servers seemed like they were tag teaming our table. Service wasn't overly friendly, but was expedient. The noise level was very loud. We had to almost shout to hear each other in our booth. We started with the prosciutto and burrata appetizer, which also had deep-fried almond slices which were delicious. For my main I had the chicken fajita salad, which was good. Everyone else seem to enjoy their food too. This place has the upscale, modern vibe of the new Windsor. The best part, though was the little Christmas trees across the street, hundreds of them decorating the park! read more

KIN Windsor - Crème brûlée - New American Near Me - Windsor, California

A strong 3 stars! Great service, the staff was very friendly, polite and attentive. Also really enjoyed their outdoor dining experience, especially in the midst of COVID. The heat lamps and canopy was a very nice touch. To start it off, I enjoyed their version of a whiskey sour. And let me say, oh they poor it strong. The crab dip appetizer was very filling. However it seemed more like a cheese/artichoke dip than actual crab. The Brie salad was tasty and had an interesting touch with the fried Brie balls. They give a nice hearty portion for their braised pork rib w/ polenta and yam crisps. However the food was luke warm at best and the gravy it comes with was very salty. As a heads up, for reservations you have to call before 5pm and anything afterwards is considered a walk-up. read more

Ok the wife and I have been here a few times now. This review is way past due. It's in walking distance from our house. They always have great beer on tap and good drinks. The last few times we have been there we have got the same waitress Katie. She Rock super friendly and helpful. Last night went on a date with the wife. She doesn't eat that much so we ordered braised short ribs dinner to split. It was so nice of them to put it on 2 different plates for us and didn't even ask them. The wings were good and the braised short ribs were amazing. High recommend this place. Great people and food! Cheers read more

Great lunch of Calamari, pizza and salad! Oh yes then the churro desert was a great top off! Great service. Can't wait to go back!

Oredered from Uber eats while visiting the area. Both the Caesar salad and the adult mac and cheese were really good and full of flavor. I am always seeking out good caesar salads and this one was spot on. Lots of anchovies and fresh, garlicky dressing. Large portions, I am full and still have half of the mac and cheese for leftovers. read more

I didn't have high expectations going in--I was just looking for a quick dinner for our family of four. My teen is notoriously picky and usually only enjoys either Chipotle or upscale dining, so I wasn't sure how this would go. To my surprise, the food was great! Everyone found something they liked. While the options weren't the healthiest, everything was delicious and satisfying. What really stood out was the service. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. I even managed to forget my purse, but one of the waiters ran outside to return it to me--such a kind gesture! In the future, whenever we visit Windsor, KIN will definitely be our go-to spot. Highly recommend it! read more

This place has been here for years. I'm not sure why I haven't stopped by. We were doing some wine tasting down the street and needed a bite. Sat at the bar, great service and unique cocktails.

I've been to Kin Restaurant a few times over the years & I thought it was time for a review. I've always have had excellent service here. Staff is knowledgeable & always smiling. The food has been delicious on every visit. My favorite appetizers are the Calamari & Dungeness Crab Dip, outstanding! You can't go wrong with the huge Burgers or French Dip. They also have a excellent NY Strip with a Coffee Rub & the Mac & Cheese bowl is incredible, creamery & loaded with cheese. Kin's also have a nice Salads available, my favorite is the Wedge Salad. They also have a excellent bar & covered outside dining if you have a furry pet along for the ride. I haven't tried their Desserts but my friends have & they all recommend the Banana Bread Pudding. Sometimes the seating in the Bar area can get loud with TV's on, so I would recommend going to a table outside of the Bar area if your looking for less noise. Give Kin's a try I'm sure you'll be pleased with the delicious food, the large portions, Fantastic wait staff & the overall good time you'll experience here. read more
