Food was very delicious and had very unique but good options. Our server Brandon was also very helpful

As someone who's always looking for new places to try, I'm surprised it took us this long to find KinD Restaurant. We live in West Seattle, but since they've only been open for about two months, this was our first visit--and it definitely won't be our last. We started with the edamame and kimchi. The kimchi has a nice kick to it, and we absolutely loved it! For our mains, we ordered the tofu and vegetable noodle soup and the bone-in short rib. Both were incredibly comforting, with a rich, savory broth and plenty of vegetables. We actually found ourselves asking for extra broth because it was that good! The bone-in short rib was fork-tender, packed with flavor, and one of those dishes you'll still be thinking about after the meal. Everything tasted thoughtfully prepared without feeling overly heavy. We also tried the Japanese lager. My husband, who's a big beer enthusiast and usually prefers bolder, heavier beers, thought it was a little too light for his taste. If you enjoy easy-drinking lagers, though, you'll probably love it. The service made the experience even better. Brandon was the only server covering about five tables, yet he never seemed overwhelmed. He took the time to walk us through the menu, explain how everything worked, and checked on everyone throughout our meal. It's always refreshing to receive service that feels genuinely welcoming rather than rushed. For a restaurant that's only been open a short time, they're off to a fantastic start. If you're looking for a cozy spot with flavorful food and warm hospitality, Kind Restaurant is absolutely worth a visit. We'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu. read more

This West Seattle restaurant is one of many I wanted to give a try, so for a trip to this part of Seattle and to also stroll around Alki Beach, I came here with a friend on a Saturday evening around 7:30pm. The interior immediately struck me as being pretty modern and minimalistic with several paintings on the walls and a bar area followed by several tables that seat groups of up to 8 people or so. Our wait wasn't long as most tables weren't filled until the absolute last minute right when we finished our 1-hour visit and ate our food. The menu has options including noodle soups, banh mi sandwiches, dumplings, rice plates and tons of drinks of all sorts. Staff gives you a tablet where you place your orders and add more when you feel like it. Our dishes took a good 20 or so minutes to finally come out which is a while given the restaurant wasn't packed in any way. As for our food: - We shared some homemade pork and shrimp spicy wontons, which came in six and showered with a spicy sauce similar to that of Lao Gan Ma chili crisps, only much thinner. We both agreed it wasn't too spicy but we were fine with the lower spice levels. - I got their beef noodle soup, which - put simply - felt more like a regular bowl of pho minus the lime and other small stuff. It has sirloin slices that were raw when presented until staff gracefully poured the beef broth into the bowl and turned all that red meat into the tender protein that I enjoy. Green onions, small mint leaves and some cilantro finish the rest of the dish. Hoisin sauce and sriracha are provided on the side for this. Dishes here are promising overall and there's a ton of variety besides what we both got. A return trip here is in the works whenever I come back for something related to West Seattle! read more

I started with the spicy wonton appetizer (no soup version), which was pork wontons coated in chili oil and scallions. The chili crisp oil was decently flavorful and I enjoyed it, though at close to $15 after tax and tip, it felt steep for an appetizer portion. For my main, I went with their signature dish, the red cooked Wagyu beef and noodles. The Wagyu itself was the highlight of the meal, melt-in-your-mouth tender, rich, and you could really taste the quality of the beef. Fair warning that there's a lot of fattiness, but that comes with the territory for Wagyu. It's a unique dish - I haven't seen anything quite like it at other spots, so if you're in the mood for a rich, meaty noodle situation, it's worth trying at least once. That said, the broth leaned mild and neutral, so if you're hoping for something deeply seasoned and packed with flavor, this probably isn't the right pick. The noodles were decent and are supposedly handmade, but they tasted closer to good store-bought than what I was expecting from handmade, maybe just a small step above. A little more chew would have gone a long way. Overall the food is well-executed but on the pricier side, and the ambiance and ordering setup don't quite match the price point. You order through an iPad, which gives it a casual, quick-service feel that felt a bit at odds with what you're paying. I'm personally not a fan of tablet ordering when there's a friendly staff on hand to talk to. Speaking of, service was warm and welcoming, Brandon in particular was great. They also still have their prize wheel going for deals, though you may need to ask about it (and they'll ask for a review in exchange). The restaurant is clean, the location at the West Seattle junction is convenient with plenty of other spots nearby, and the Wagyu really is worth experiencing. Give it a try if you're in the area, just go in knowing you're paying a bit of a premium for a casual-feeling meal with at least the Wagyu noodle soup being a unique dish. read more

Been living in west Seattle for 2 years now and have always been looking for a good Asian spot and today I finally got to try kinD! KinD is located on the junction and offers a unique twist on Asian food. We went on a weekday during their soft opening phase, so we got a free appetizer: fried dumplings to share which was so delicious! For our main dishes, we opted for a chicken and beef noodle soup since it was a chilly day. The beef noodle soup was a twist on traditional pho. The soup was very flavorful but I did miss the spices they use in a traditional pho. The meat was slightly overcooked probably from how hot the soup was but was overall enjoyable. The chicken noodle soup had round noodles kind of resembling udon and the broth was really light and comforting, kind of like a home cooked meal. The other menu items like the wagyu noodle soup and the curry rice looked good so I do want to give those a try next time as well. Overall, given that we went during their soft opening, the food was not bad! Shout out to Brandon, our server who was super attentive and gave us great recommendations as it was our first time visiting. read more

Had our 1st dinner at KinD last night and wow - all of our friends that recommended it were not wrong! Brandon was excellent and explained the menu, how to order, and checked in on us to make sure our meal was great! The char siu was some of the best I've ever tasted, and we each had a noodle bowl on a chilly Seattle summer evening. We'll definitely be back to try more! And for Ann's comment a few months back, this place was no more expensive than anywhere else in the Junction, so - don't be scared off! read more

KinD Asian Noodle has a really solid broth, and the handmade noodles are a must! I tried the Szechuan beef shank broth and loved how flavorful it was without being too heavy or oily. Definitely worth checking out in the Junction! read more

We popped in on a Tuesday afternoon and were seated almost immediately. Brandon, our server insisted on setting the table first, so he wouldn't have to reach across us while he set things up. Once we were seated, he explained how the iPad menu worked, which was very user-friendly. His impeccable service was consistent throughout our visit. I'm not going to say the food was out of this world, but it was really good, from the chicken katsu, to the Char Siu noodles and my daughter's Ramen, everything left us satisfied and smiling. If you're local to West Seattle or just visiting, you should definitely give this place a try. read more

Had the best time and most fabulous food at kinD! Brandon took great care of me and my friend when we stopped in for lunch. The food was 5/5 as was the service! Everything tasted fresh, flavorful, and was clearly made in house. This is my favorite new restaurant in the junction and will can't wait to go back to try more! read more

It was good but not $70 dollars good. For 2 people come on now? We won't be back we go try out restaurants in and around our neighbourhood often. If we like them we will post them. If you go here folks go with deep pockets and go alone and don't go hungry maybe you'll save money? Otherwise avoid this place. I even asked my husband when we got to the car "did they charge us for water too?" ‍ read more

Thank you so much for the great service! Brandon was very helpful and attentive to our table! The fried tofu appetizer was so good and the noodles were great! The plum tea was also very refreshing! :) read more

This was my second visit, and I couldn't stop thinking about the Szechuan shank noodle soup--it was that good. I came back to try more of the menu, and it didn't disappoint. The food and service are both excellent, and it's great to finally have a standout Asian restaurant in West Seattle. The handcrafted noodles are perfectly cooked, and both the broth and meats are rich and flavorful. This time I tried the red-braised wagyu, and it was incredibly tender--literally falling apart with every bite. For the quality, the portions and pricing feel completely justified. read more

Just came back from Seattle, and I'm still dreaming about this soup. My friend and I went to this spot before she took me to the airport. I was really craving soup and this Red cooked Waguy Noodle Soup just hit the spot. It has a great amount of spices, umami flavor and the noodles were cooked to perfection. I added a bit of chili oil cause I cannot resist. Will be returning and recommending to my friends in the area. Parking: is in the back, Walk around the corner where chase bank is and I have attached a photo of the front, They don't have their sign up yet. Attached a pic of what I ordered from the menu. read more

First visit to KinD and I'm really glad they opened -- West Seattle needed this. My server Brandon offered excellent recommendations and gave top-notch service. I started with complimentary pork and veggie wontons (fun grand opening spin-the-wheel bonus), then took Brandon's reco for the Red Cooked Wagyu Stew. Wow! Rich, deeply umami broth, perfectly chewy hand-cut noodles, and big chunks of melt-in-your-mouth beef. Seriously impressive. I'm adding KinD Noodle House to my West Seattle rotation, and can't wait to go back and try more of the menu. read more
