KINDRED 1503 30th Street, San Diego, CA 92102

"I had a fantastic meal! If you're looking for vegan comfort food done right, this is the place to go. My meal started with their fried mushrooms. They were perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with a delicious dressing that had me reaching for more. For my main course, I opted for the burger. Then impossible patty was cooked exactly as I requested, and the toppings were fresh and flavorful. The bun was soft and held everything together perfectly. It was a truly satisfying burger. I wish it was bigger. I couldn't resist sharing a grilled cheese with my dining partner. The cheese was melted to gooey perfection, and the bread was perfectly toasted. It was a simple but delicious side dish. The only downside is that the music playing in the restaurant was very loud and didn't fit the mood. Too heavy and grunge rock. The kitchen also brought out food in the weirdest order. Mains first, appetizers last."

"Contrary to some recent reviews, I felt the service was good. In fact, we unknowingly walked in just as brunch was closing and the hostesses spoke to the bartender to made sure we were still able to order food! Rating 3 stars since the food & drink was mediocre."

"I was blown away by how delicious the food was at Kindred. you know a restaurants going to be good when they can do their vegetables correctly. I’m not a vegan, but I have to say everything was super delicious. They also have Steakhouse Sundays For the whole month of November you can now enjoy premium Chunk Foods whole steaks I literally couldn’t believe that these steaks were 100% plant based. They were so juicy and tender and packed full of flavor! Topped with lemon thyme butter and paired with creamy mashed potatoes and asparagus to create the perfect vegan steak experience. ."

"Probably in my top three for best espresso martinis in San Diego, if you like chocolate and salt you HAVE to try their espresso martini. Everything we had was spectacular, definitely a favorite spot for cocktails especially waiting for Italian next door. Can't wait to come back!"
