If you’re vegan or just love incredible plant-based food, Kindred in San Diego is an absolute must-visit. Everything is 100% vegan, and every single dish blew us away with its creativity, flavor, and execution.
We started with the skewer plate (those BBQ yuba skewers are unreal – they taste like the most indulgent meat you’ve ever had, but totally plant-based!), a fresh and perfectly dressed salad, and the egg roll burger – what a genius twist! The crispy wonton wrapper on the burger adds such a satisfying crunch and flavor explosion. For dessert, the cannolis were light, crispy, and filled with the creamiest vegan ricotta – perfection.
We also loved the seasonal beverages – they had this incredible plant-based eggnog that was so rich and spiced, it completely blew our minds. We haven’t had eggnog in five years since going vegan, and this one was spot-on. It’s inspired me to try making my own at home for Christmas!
The atmosphere is super unique (think edgy meets Victorian), the cocktails are inventive, and the service was friendly and attentive. If you’re in the area, do yourself a favor and go – you won’t be disappointed! Highly recommend for anyone craving bold, delicious vegan eats.

We felt so good after our first visit, we went again and tried a variety of food items. They all tasted so delicious. We tried their BBQ Yuba skewers, they were awesome. Highly recommend the place and we plan to visit this place again when we are back in San Diego!!
P.S: Don’t miss their Pumpkin Caramel Cheesecake

The ambience is lovely here. I went here for dinner, tried chimichuri skewers and egg roll burger. Both were really good. The portion size of the burger could be improved. They should have more non alcoholic drinks, as of now its too little. They got just two desserts, should have 5-6. You can also bring your dogs here. This is a fully vegan restaurant and despite the flaws I still recommend going here.

My second time going here and both times were phenomenal. Great food, great drinks, great vibes. Has a goth kind of vibe. Everything here is vegan. And all the food that my friends got also looked delicious. They gave me a desert for my birthday it was very nice. First time I went was for dinner and this most recent time was for brunch. Both have very good service and delicious foods. Would highly recommend to vegans and non vegans!

Great brunch at Kindred! Really love the ambiance of the restaurant, and the staff were all super sweet and helpful. We sat on the dog friendly patio. We started with some delicious drinks, the Pom Pom killer, blood trance, and spinal tap. The food was great, we ordered the warlock, congee, and mind melt. Recommend, whether you are a vegetarian or not you will be impressed!

The eggroll burger was seriously delicious!!! I’ll be thinking about it forever!
We went late and only had the late night, limited menu, but it was still absolutely worth it! A great spot for a late night snack & drink.
The service was fantastic – great sense of humor, accommodating, good suggestions, knowledgeable

Kindred in South Park is easily the coolest dining experience in San Diego. The vibe is this wild mix of “death metal” and “chic pink,” and somehow it works perfectly.
We stopped by for dinner, and even though the wait was long, the atmosphere made it easy to hang out. The cocktail program is top-tier—creative, strong, and beautifully presented.
• The Vibe: Dark, moody, and whimsical. It’s perfect for a date night or just grabbing drinks with friends.
• The Food: It’s 100% vegan, but you wouldn’t know it. The flavors are bold and satisfying.
Definitely “worth the wait” for the ambiance alone. If you want a spot with character and great drinks, this is it.

Visited Kindred on a Saturday afternoon with a reservation for two. We arrived a bit late, but the host was kind and still got us seated. Unfortunately, the initial table was very small and cramped, too close to other diners. We ended up moving to a bar-designated table in the center of the space, which was much more comfortable — big thanks to the staff for being accommodating.
This was actually my first time trying vegan food, and I was genuinely impressed. I have Peruvian roots, so I’ve grown up with lots of traditional dishes and bold flavors. The crispy potatoes were simple but had a bright, acidic taste that really stood out. The chimichurri had a different texture than I’m used to, but the flavor still resembled the South American versions I know. The real surprise was the Warlock Bowl — as someone who’s eaten quinoa all my life, I appreciated how flavorful and well-seasoned it was. A creative twist on something familiar.
We tried a few cocktails, and unfortunately, this is where Kindred really lost a point. Aside from the Espresso Martini (which was excellent — smooth, strong, and well-balanced), every other drink was almost entirely ice. We’re talking 90% ice, 10% liquid. For cocktails priced at this level, that felt pretty disappointing — even borderline deceptive. They looked great, but there just wasn’t enough actual drink in the glass.
The ambiance is relaxed and stylish, with background rock music playing at a comfortable volume. It got louder between 6–7 p.m., with guest conversations completely overtaking the music. Things calmed down again around 9 p.m..
Overall, Kindred is a great spot for flavorful vegan dishes in a creative setting. Just skip the cocktails (except the Espresso Martini), and maybe ask for a proper pour next time.

The ambience is nice. Their decor is interesting.
The food was very disappointing. The double cheeseburger was a sad-looking small burger that looked like a cheap fast food burger. The buns were not fresh.
Drinks sounded more interesting than their taste.
Very small portions.

This restaurant has an incredible atmosphere, and the cocktails are delicious. Unfortunately, the gluten-free options are *very* limited, although (shockingly!) the desserts are gluten-free. So for my Celiac chicks, I’d recommend grabbing dinner elsewhere, but be sure to come here for a delightful drink and dessert by the candlelight afterward.
