Great Saturday happy hour, fantastic bar, friendly staff. Nice mix of options although we like the flatbread pizza.

Finally had a chance to try Kindred last week(end). I was honestly won over when we first walked in....we didn't have a reservation but asked if they could accommodate two for dinner. The hostess/server was awesome: not pretentious and looking down her nose at us since we didn't have a reservation. She did say that she needed the table by 7 PM. No problem! That said, it was pretty busy for being early in the evening. Guests kept coming in as we were getting ready to depart. The food that we tried was very good: -the chips with crème fraîche were very nice, but I don't know that I would go out of my way for these again. I really enjoyed the chips themselves... very thin and light ...and quite salty (in a good way). A little bit of fish roe is mixed in for "extra saltiness" and a little bit of a fishy experience in the crème fraîche. -Brussel sprouts for me were the winner! Absolutely delicious and we added some chicken so that we'd have a little bit of protein. Grilled chicken was perfectly flavored and not dry at all. Brussels sprouts had just the right amount of char and umami. -flatbread was honestly my least favorite. We stuck with the basic burrata/Margherita pizza/flatbread, and after eating the brussels sprouts it just didn't hold up in terms of flavor. Some of the other options might be better if you're looking for more of a flavor punch.... but it was served steaming, hot, and freshly made. As more people showed up, it definitely got noisier... so prepare for a bit of a loud environment...pretty much the same situation in all downtown Saratoga restaurants these days. I will definitely go back and try some other items on the menu. read more

Went before a SPAC show and was thrilled by the drinks/wine menu and the specials. I went hoping the girl dinner was still available on thursday nights, which it was not and there was no mention of it. I had the special which was mussels and fries. We split the stuffed artichoke appetizer which was very good. And the special wine of the night went extremely well with the flatbread. read more

Again - very poor service. Hostess greeted us & seated us w menus but waitress never came to take our order. We left. How does this business survive?????? Hope the owner sees this! read more

The atmosphere at Kindred is super trendy and fun for a night out. I loved the lighting and the decor in there. The baked camembert was great. I had a seasonal apple flavored cocktail that didn't have much apple flavor. We got two entrees to share. The squash ravioli is out of this world!! Seriously delicious, really great flavor, loved the pepitas! The steak frites was disappointing. The potatoes and aioli were good but the steak came out cold, a bit over done, and chewy. Service was really kind, our server was friendly and answered all our questions. read more

Look at these drink prices! Thanks for supporting the saratoga bike club event! App and entree prices very affordable from our Fairfax county CT, point of view We got to eat outside and the selection of tables and big comfy chairs to the side of Kindred are fun and hard to choose. Prices are very nice and we all enjoyed sharing all the apps we ordered. Was plenty of food for most and this turned out to be dinner at least for the women at the table. 2 of the guys would eat a bit more at the next stop but not much more. The event was hosted by the saratoga springs bike club, we rode 35miles on Friday, 55 on Saturday and 35 on Sunday. Beautiful country in the fall and the local restaurants gave us drink discounts read more

No reservation - sat at the bar. Made room for us right away. They make elegant and fine dining feel approachable for everyone. Their espresso martini has a hint of orange which is phenomenal, as is their Manhattan. We ordered the warm bread, olives, and bacon dates and for $30 in food we felt like we were living lavish. Their inventive spirit is felt all throughout the restaurant. We adore this place and will always come back for more! read more

The food overall was well below mid, my steak was terrible & served raw in the center (NOT as ordered), and the waiter was inappropriate toward me from the moment I sat down. Unsurprisingly, my complaint about that was treated as more of a big deal than the bad behavior of the creepy dude. Color me shocked. P.S. -- the receipts here fade almost immediately (see pic), so if you think you might need to keep it for anything you'd better take a picture or make a photocopy. read more

Kindred - Photo of receipt from Kindred, Nov. 6, 2025. It's only been 2 mo. & it's faded to almost nothing but still says " ask about our wine club". - Wine Bars Near Me - Saratoga Springs, New York

Pros: - Best wine bar in town. Favorite place to grab a really interesting glass of wine. - It's got that NYC wine bar ambience - Super thin cracker like flatbreads that are delicious. Brussels and their wrapped dates are also a favorite. - New roasted chicken on tbe menu was possibly the best chicken I've ever had. Cons: - Relatively small portions (entrees are pretty sizable though) - Not a ton of GF options - A bit pricey read more

Experienced nostalgia of the good old Merry Monk days. We started with a bottle of at the bar. The host informed us that our table was still being used by the previous res so we just relaxed and ordered a bottle at the bar. I really admired the various offerings and settled on a bottle of Milan Nestarec. It was lovely and full of stone fruit notes. Our dinner entrees were equally amazing , Steak and mushroom glace and a pea asparagus Taglietelle. The server provided Great convo and menu without being over bearing. 5 stars. read more

My grandparents and I were really excited to eat here; we liked the atmosphere, were excited by the menu, and our waiter was great, but it was wayyyy too loud. The musicians were talented, but we couldn't hear ourselves talk...or think. It would have potentially been enjoyable had it been 60% less loud. My grandfather even had to turn his hearing aids off. We ended up having to leave without ordering. I would love to return without the music. read more

There is SO much to like about this new spot. The interior is beautiful with nice, varied seating options. I cannot leave a review without mentioning the bar. It's nice and wide, so really comfortable to eat at, with the most comfortable bar seats I've ever experienced. If I was a local, I would make it my go-to bar just for the seats alone! Next up, drinks. As a wine bar, it naturally has a great selection of wines. I recommend talking to your server for direction as everybody is really knowledgeable about the wine list. And if you are not a wine person, they've got a great cocktail selection as well (and I am picky when it comes to cocktails). Finally, the food. The menu has a lot to choose from and is ever changing, a feature I really like because keeping up with the season changes is important. The flatbread with the spiced creme is killer and the pork schnitzel was somehow way better than anticipated. This place has a lot to offer and can fit different plans, from girl dinner to date night. It's definitely good for both and you should for sure try it. Bonus points for really nice bathrooms with fun wallpaper. read more

There was 6 of us and wewent to this place for drinks. The interior was so beautiful and the hostess was nice and friendly. Can't stop thinking about that affogato I had. Have to go back again just for that. read more

We were pleasantly surprised with terrific food and great service at peak time on a holiday weekend. We loved sitting near the open kitchen with 2 wood burning ovens. We each had a glass of Txakoli to start which was lovely. For appetizers we had the spiced cream and prosciutto flatbread and the Bibb salad. Both were delicious and a generous portion so easily shareable. We split the strip steak and wood-fired asparagus for our main meal which was more than enough to share and very tasty. I love a place that isn't afraid to properly salt the food. All and all we had a wonderful meal and experience. Often Memorial weekend can be a bit of a mess with staff getting up to speed for the season but Kindred really demonstrated that they are professionals in every way. read more

This place is a serious gem. We got our first taste during Saratoga Spring's annual Chowderfest, and - although they served a vegan chowder - I can say, without hesitation that it was the best one of the day. It is so good, that I am desperate for them to add it to their winter menu. We went back around the 4th of July, and again, we had a great experience. We tried their brisket sandwich and their Brussels sprouts. The Brussels were phenomenal. All the accoutrements made it the perfect snack. The brisket was really good - a little tough, but really good. We went back for dinner last night. I had the spring ravioli with corn ricotta filling, and it was absolutely stellar. It was perfect, well-rounded, flavorful, and I didn't feel full and disgusting after - just perfectly satiated. My husband had the classic flatbread, and honestly, I have to say it wasn't that great. When they say "flatbread", they mean it. It is a thinner-than-a-cracker- crust - which is fine if you'er not very hungry. Just don't think you're going to leave with a full belly if you just eat this. The elements on the flatbread were fine. The sauce is ok, and they used mozzarella, but given how limited this dish is, it could use an extra, more flavorful cheese (maybe parmesan, or provolone). I don't mind the thin crust, but it's not what you would expect. I would prefer something a little better executed. The ambiance is beautiful, cozy and hip. The music is great, and the staff has always been friendly. I love this restaurant, and I hope they stick around. read more
