"Kindred has one of the most compelling menus in the area, often changing daily. The luscious squid ink conchiglie, a deviled red snapper toast, and Calabrian chili watermelon sorbet are equal parts polished and fun. Order the barkeep’s choice cocktail, which puts a playful, interactive flair on whatever a guest is craving. The two-story interior that manages to still feel completely intimate has the vibe that each detail — from the brick walls to brown leather booths — had an artist’s touch. With its small-town magnetism just north of Charlotte, Kindred is a whole weekend’s worth of a romantic getaway in one evening." - Kayleigh Ruller
"Situated in the quaint north-of-Charlotte college town Davidson, Kindred is a well-known, but timeless, date night dream, with a soft, moody color palette and a hospitality style birthed from the ethos of its very name, meaning family or tribe. This creative, ever-changing menu goes beyond predictable entrees and instead boasts seasonal renditions of wagyu beef tartare, crispy oysters, and a squid ink conchiglie. Share them Lady and the Tramp-style for any special occasion." - Kayleigh Ruller
"Milkbread builds on the Kindreds’ success in the Davidson area, including Kindred, which has been a semi-finalist for a James Beard Award several times." - Kathleen Purvis
"Ownership rebuilt cramped service stations and significantly upgraded kitchen air conditioning to improve efficiency and comfort for staff, treating such infrastructure changes as a way to show respect for employees rather than relying on endurance alone." - Jaya Saxena
"And now, there’s lots of people opening independent restaurants, like Joe Kindred of Kindred and Hello, Sailor and William Dissen of Asheville, who came to Charlotte to open Haymaker." - Kathleen Purvis
