My pork chop was to die for! I was greeted promptly to a clean & dim restaurant! I loved it! read more

Cute place. Good food and drinks. Very good service. Love the vibe. In a bit of a strange location. But with a visit.

Small, cozy place with a great bartender and outstanding food. The Kin salad was really tasty and chock full of giardiniera style pickled veg and manchego. I had my ribeye woodsman style and it was generously seasoned and perfectly medium rare. My only complaint was that it was a little gristly in places, but that's no fault of the chef. I'll be back! read more

Food was good, service was a little slow, but it was pleasant and crowded so I understand. Ambiance is noisy, but lively and fun.

This place is truly a gem! We have been twice now and both times were fantastic! The first time I got the scallops with the lobster stock risotto (a seafood heaven on a plate) and my boyfriend got the hanger steak with a side of scallops and the kin salad. Our drinks were also top notch definitely have an interesting cocktail menu and will have you trying new flavors. My boyfriend ordered a hotel nacional which is not on the menu but they happened to have all the ingredients and the bartender made them to perfection. I would highly recommend the sticky ribs, the octopus, the Kin salad. I had the burger this past time and my boyfriend had the crispy chicken thighs and once again they did not disappoint! This place is now thrown in our date night rotation and it's worth every cent The ambiance in my opinion is nice, they have a good selection of music playing the back ground if you haven't tried this place you most definitely should! read more

Wanted to try something new on my off day so decided to try Kinred. The young man that greeted me had a great attitude and was nice. I got the steak frites & the scallops w/pork belly. I thoroughly enjoyed the food , although ill say the pork belly & scallops is rather small to be listed as a shareable item but overall 4.2/5 stars! read more

Had a wonderful time here. The food was delicious at every step, except for the fries that were cooked a little too long. The octopus, lamb chops, and 3 pigs burger knocked it out of the park, though. One of the best burgers I've ever tasted. The drinks were strong and unique, and the service was excellent. Very attentive and accommodating. They didn't even rush us near closing or even mention it. I highly recommend this place and will definitely return read more

Dinner was OUTSTANDING! The ribeye was cooked to perfection with an amazing crust, and the gouda grits were the best grits I've ever had. The steak was huge and less than $50 and better than most steaks I've had at high-end restaurants that are usually double the price. Service and cocktails were also great, and overall it was a 10/10 experience. My only regret is not taking a picture of my food. Will definitely be back. read more

I had the vampire tacos. SOOOO salty. Consider using no salt at all since it has so much cheese, and switching cojita for queso fresco. Service was 10/10. read more

We have now been to Kindred enough times that I have a sufficient sample size to rate. 1. Parking is a bear especially Friday through Sunday, not much they can do about it. 2. Menu could be a little more innovative, but overall decent selection, especially if you want steak. 3. Drinks and wine list good. 4. Service is generally excellent but has been spotty on occasion. 5. Ambiance is a little close, it's not a big place. Overall a solid 4 stars. read more

The service was warm and attentive, and the restaurant itself was pleasant. Unfortunately, the food was extremely disappointing. The fish tasted freezer-burned and was undercooked, the soup arrived cold and contained several pieces of crab shell, and the pricing was excessive -- over $300 for two people with just two drinks. read more

Keep finding myself back here as the food is truly delicious, the drinks exceptional, and the overall vibe pretty much perfect. This chef knows how to cook seafood -- he offers mouthwatering shrimp, scallops, and mahi. Steaks are all top notch, as is the lamb. The sticky ribs are crazy good and they have one of the best Caesar salads I've ever had anywhere. Friendly and knowledgeable service accompany innovative specialty cocktails -- but save a little room because you MUST try their whiskey old fashioned crème brûlée. Oh. My. God. It's. So. Good. read more

What a secret neighborhood gem! Great atmosphere, excellent service, and exceptional flavors! I've never been excited about a Cobb Salad before, but this salad blew me away! Compliments to the chef! The textures of the grilled chicken and pork belly combined with all the delicious flavors, YUM! read more

3.13 - Update: I appreciate Kindred reaching out to address my previous review. They apologized for their off night and invited me back. Stephen, the GM, shared they were updating the menu and that the number of servers working is based on their reservations, which makes complete sense. Given today's climate, this staffing model is entirely understandable. I haven't had the chance yet to go back, but I plan to soon. I'm a regular at Oak Grove Market (also owned by Rick with a couple of partners), and seeing him today reminded me of their commitment to quality. I'm impressed by their effort to make it right, truly going above & beyond. Definitely give them a try! I'll update my food star rating when I get back, but don't wait for my review. 2.27 - Really disappointed in Kindred. The ambiance is about the only thing it had going. The dinner menu was limited to pork, expensive steak options one fish dish and the alternative, vegetarian plate that was too salty. The mushroom hors d'oeuvre did not taste like fresh mushrooms & it felt like our server ignored us throughout. I don't normally review, that's how disappointing it was. read more

File this under "Places you go when you want everything to go right." Kindred is excellent. Ask for Sleighton (sp?). She makes everything perfect. She knows the menu backwards and forwards, makes good recommendations and puts real love into her work. Kindred is what happens when the owners of Oak Grove Market do a sit-down restaurant. I've been to Kindred a handful of times now for lunch, and I've never been disappointed in anything I've ordered, whether it's a steak sandwich, the pimiento cheese appetizer, some roasted oysters, or the Sausage Gravy on a Biscuit with a fried Chicken Breast (see the terrible pic I uploaded). The house chips with some Chimichurri ranch are good and the fries are simply outstanding. Kindred is also simply comfortable. Every table is conducive to good conversations. And every time I've gone, I've never wanted for anything. My glass is always full. I will eventually make it to Kindred for dinner. Holler if you're coming with. read more

This restaurant is a true gem! I went with a friend for dinner. The service was amazing. The owner even came over to our table and talk to us for a little while. He also suggested some items. He was very hands-on and I enjoyed that. We started off with appetizers. We shared the sticky ribs. Which were absolutely amazing! We also shared the shrimp and grits. Those were really good as well. The grits have corn in them which is different but had a good taste. And we got the garlic crab claws. The crab claws were really good to. Make sure you take that bread and dip it in that sauce... Amazing. Four entrées my friend got the Kindred burger. She is lactose intolerant so she got it without the cheese. It was a huge burger and she even had some left over. I got the crispy chicken. Which was cooked perfectly. I was even able to switch out the sauté spinach that it comes with and get asparagus at no extra charge. This is going to be one of my new favorite places to go to! read more

What can I say.... This place is a MUST ! We decided to go for our anniversary and I am so glad we did. From the minute we walked in the door u til the minute we walked out, everything was too notch! Let's talk about decor- it's intimate, but casual at the same time. The art work is really fun and so is the music. There are tables indoors as well as a bar. They also have a few tables outside as well. Ok- drinks- the back of the menu has signature cocktails, wines, beers, and bubbles. My pollinator drink had tequila and berry something and peppercorn. We also had a paloma which was super delish too. FOOD!! The menu offers share plates, steaks, and non-steak entrees. We went with 3 share plates to start- sticky ribs, beet terrine, and crab in a curry broth. I dreamt about all of it all night. The beet terrine is beautifully layered red and golden beets with whipped goat cheese. Do I need to say more??? All we so good! The steak menu is so creative. You have the choice of a Ribeye, filet, or hanger. Then you choose your seasoning. Everything from classic salt pepper and homemade steak sauce to a chimmichurri and pickled onion topping. Then you choose your side. Matt went with the classic ribeye(MR) and the grits. It did not disappoint! I actually had the shareable veggie tacos because I was already full, but it was so good! For dessert we had a coconut tree leche and a homemade chocolate cookie with coffee ice cream. We will definitely be back! I don't plan to bring the kids though anytime soon. read more

My husband and I love Kindred. The service is always on point and the food is incredible! Love that the Executive Chef Rick runs food when it permits. It adds a personal touch that shows a genuine passion and commitment to both the food and the overall experience. Kindred is my favorite restaurant to recommend, and they never fail to impress!

What we love: The food. Chef is excellent. The Pimento Cheese appetizer is a must. Tacos Vampiros. Another must. Braised Chicken Thighs. Great menu for both meat eaters (Steaks) and plant-based people. Excellent cocktails from the bar. Great table service from wait and bar staff. What we don't like: Some of the seating doesn't fit a 50 dollar steak. Tables that are a tight squeeze. Lights shining in eyes. And the hostess, she doesn't appreciate complaints or requests to move. Especially on a busy night. I also wonder if they overbook. We had 745 reservations Friday, didn't sit down until 815, and had to settle for a tight booth near the bright lights from the parking lot. And it was a tight squeeze for two of us. We watched much smaller people get roomier tables despite our requests. Kudos to the Chef who heard me complain at 845 and rushed out a plate of food. This is in a great location for people who live nearby. But after two tries with same issues, my other half does not want to go back. read more

The scallops with corn puree is fantabulous! And the bar keep really makes a top notch drink- just tell him what flavors you like. Wonderful service and quality food. Will have to come back soon. read more

This restaurant is a great spot where the food is good & the vibe is original & peaceful.

Delicious! First time here and enjoyed it very much. The food was outstanding at reasonable prices. The decor is too cute. We got the burger, the chicken and the pimento cheese. All of it was 10/10. A man who I believe to be the manager came and checked on us 3 times. Great service! read more

I celebrated my 80th birthday and ordered the hanger steak medium rare. I got it actually rare, but the flavor was non existent- they must have forgotten to use salt & pepper. I tried some of my wife's hamburger which I found also unseasoned & rather compacted (not what I would expect for restaurant known for their hamburgers. Service was friendly & excellent. read more

We thoroughly enjoyed our meal last night at Kindred. The ambience was relaxing, and the food was excellent. We started off with the pimento cheese board with deviled eggs. I ordered the shrimp and grits and my husband ordered the special, which was a fresh, perfectly seasoned pompano. I loved my mock tail too and my husband enjoyed his manhattan. read more

You know that feeling when you've been away for ages, and you finally get home and it feels awesome - totally familiar, but better? That's what coming to the reinvented space in Oak Grove felt like, the first time we dined at the new Kindred after a years-long love affair with its previous incarnation, Kitchen Six. K6 was our go-to neighborhood spot before the pandemic (and during - more on that in a moment) and my favorite thing was the menu layout. Six items in each section, and six sections on the menu - rotating constantly, rolling in seasonal produce and keeping only one or two dishes on the menu constant (pimento cheese, steak and pot de crème, I see you). Kindred takes that and one-ups itself with the small but mighty entree list, a steak selection oozing with paint-by-numbers simplicity (+$3 blue cheese and bacon, +$6 Spanish shrimp, yes please) and a fabulous stack of shareable apps (octopus romesco and beet terrine, you are welcome at my table any day). Not to be outdone, Kindred's cocktails and wine list also have a same-but-better vibe going on. Both red and white sections boast a thoughtful number of everyday-priced wines, so you don't have to worry about spending "fancy dinner" money here if you don't want to break the bank on a Tuesday. Don't miss the few knockout bottles, though - I'm still looking for an occasion to order the Silver Oak cab - and you have to try the fancy fizz at least once. Cocktails are creative but classic, like the gin fizz with a twist (which, in Kindred's case, is blackberry and thyme; tastes like fall in a glass). The people? All the way through 2020's trying times, the K6 team handled pick-up orders with a smile, even figuring out how to hand off perfectly mixed cocktails in travel-friendly (and cute as heck) packaging. At the same time, they collected donations and served hundreds of meals to front line heroes every week. So it's no surprise that, now they're back and better than ever, the service is just right, every time. From the inimitable Sherri, maitre d' of our dreams, to the subtlety professional but friendly team, something good is going on at Kindred. The decor has been spruced up, and even the most picky instagrammers will find a selfie-ready backdrop for their tales of cool, fun nights out. Kindred is for romance, for girls' nights, for dinner with neighbors, for happy hour with friends, and for family celebrations all year long. Don't sit on this, get there before everyone else figures it out too. And to #TeamKindred: Welcome to the neighborhood, my old friend. We've missed you. read more

Kindred - a plate of food on a table - New American Near Me - Decatur, Georgia

Excellent cocktails, amazing food and friendly service. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit here.

This was our first time going to Kindred. Saw the menu and was looking for a steak and this seemed like a new, good choice. The atmosphere is small and intimate, but inviting. I split a ceaser wedge and the crab claws with my wife. The ceaser wedge was fine. I think there is no need to grill the lettuce, but ok. The crab claws were the star! They were spicy, they had a great sauce that came with bread to dip and there were plenty to share. Definitely recommend those. The steaks on the other hand...I was sold on the special, a 28 day dry-aged bone in ribeye. Served classic with only salt n pepper. The cook was a perfect medium rare. The flavor though? There was none. There was no flavor from the "dry age", and there wasn't even enough salt. I had to get salt from the server. My wife got the filet with the mushroom topping. Again the cook was perfect, but the flavor was absent. The service was great, Steven was fun and well versed on the menu. My final verdict though is I spent far too much money on an average dinner. Either spend a little more for fine dining, or slum it at a steak chain read more

My wife and I were excited to see what the people at Oak Grove Market would do with Kindred. The interior wasn't too different than Kitchen Six other than some more colour, murals, and a shift from small couple booths to a longer bench against the wall with tables and chairs on the other side. It's clear they were trying to increase capacity. The two-top tables were packed so close together that they actually had to pull the table out in order for my wife to get in to the bench side. Later a couple was seated at the table next to us and it felt almost like we were at the same table! Little sense of privacy. The cocktail menu has more bright or bubbly cocktails. Nothing too impressive. I much preferred Kitchen Six's creativity. We each ordered a filet cooked medium, though mine was more like medium well. The steak was quite good and I got mine "Woodsman style" with smoked mushrooms on top. Yum! The Kin Salad on the side wasn't really much to write home about, though the side of cooked spinach was fine. I'd return again to try other items on the menu. The service was a little slower than I expected but we weren't in a rush. The server also didn't seem as attentive as expected either, but this was their second day in operation. It's nice to have a neighbourhood place like this so I have hopes that they will tweak and improve, hopefully seasonally changing the menu and being more creative with cocktails. read more

Went here on a Saturday late afternoon and we were the only people in here. Sat at the bar and had some delicious drinks. We also split the trio appetizer and enjoyed it as well. The vibe is awesome and inspiring, although we could have done with less John Mayer being piped in over the speakers. read more
