Plant-based KIN Restaurant opens its doors in Fitzrovia

Since the opening of KIN café in 2014, it has grown in popularity, and they have now expanded by opening a restaurant, located right next door. KIN restaurant offers innovative, fresh and vibrant plant-based food. It prides itself in avoiding faux-meat and focusing instead on making all their dishes from scratch, using sustainably and locally sourced ingredients.

Executive Chef Shayan Shams has created a flavourful seasonal menu. You’ll be able to choose from a selection of small plates, such as silky sweet potato with vegan parmesan and butter; carrot and chickpea hummus; charred ponzu-roasted cabbage; and broad bean croquettes.

Larger plates include miso-glazed aubergine; courgette and pistachio spaghetti with vegan burrata and heirloom tomatoes; and a falafel plate. House-made relishes are also available on the menu: chilli jam, pickled fig, sundried tomato relish and a smoked pepper relish.

Finally, in their dessert menu, you’ll find avocado, lime and pistachio cheesecake; and chocolate fondant with raspberry sorbet and a hint of chilli jam. Drinks-wise, a range of craft beers and lager are available, as well as several waste-free cocktails.

The atmosphere inside the restaurant has been designed to match their sister venue, KIN café. You can expect natural materials and colours with timber flooring throughout, olive green banquette seating and a brass-detailed bar. If you’re looking for a more intimate experience, a private dining area is available downstairs, for up to 6 guests.

KIN restaurant redefines plant-based cuisine and celebrates the natural beauty of vegetables. As such, it aims to be accessible to all audiences and dietary preferences. You’ll be able to enjoy their unique dining experience, whether you are vegetarian, vegan or omnivorous.
