Expected better

I’m a bit disappointed. The service was good, and the staff were very friendly. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and has a pleasant atmosphere. However, the food didn’t meet my expectations. The nachos were average, nothing special. I also tried the sushi bowl, which tasted like something you’d buy cheaply at a grocery store. The rice was clumpy, the tofu lacked flavor, and there wasn’t much variety of vegetables. Overall, it was a disappointing experience despite the lovely environment and kind staff.

A bit disappointing

After a day of exploring the city and Porto, I utilized Happy Cow to locate highly rated vegan restaurants. Kind Kitchen emerged with a commendable 4.6/5 rating, prompting us to walk approximately 0.5 miles to its establishment.
The exterior of Kind Kitchen exuded a vibrant and contemporary ambiance, reflecting the bustling atmosphere of the early evening (8 PM) in Porto. Upon entering, we were warmly greeted by the young waitstaff and promptly seated with menus. However, our experience took a turn for the disappointing.
Despite the initial attentiveness, our server’s absence persisted throughout our meal. We were compelled to seek assistance from other servers to obtain additional beverages. Notably, each plate of food was delivered by a different server, disrupting the continuity of our dining experience.
Kind Kitchen offers a diverse selection of starters and main courses. I opted for the Tofu Nuggets with Korean barbecue sauce as a shared starter, accompanied by the Seitan Chimichurri Steak as my main course.
Upon receiving the nuggets, the bowl was placed in the center of the table without any accompanying side plates. Consequently, we were unable to share the dish effectively.
The Tofu Nuggets were really good, with a crispy exterior and a delectable sweet and slightly spicy barbecue sauce. While the Korean barbecue sauce may not have been strictly authentic, it complemented the nuggets well.
The Seitan Chimichurri Steak, on the other hand, fell short of expectations. The seasoning was excessively salty, with a mushy texture. The chimichurri sauce, characterized by its raw garlic flavor, overshadowed the presence of herbs, leaving their taste indistinguishable.
Given these shortcomings, I have decided to rate Kind Kitchen three stars.

Súper!!

Unos de los mejores sitios donde he comido. Pedimos el udon con "huevo" y los filetes de seitán con chimichurri. De postre el brownie. Todo muy rico!! Sin duda repetiré cuando vuelva a Oporto ❤️

Nice Lunch

I had the pleasure of dining at Kind Kitchen during my visit to Porto, and it was such a great experience! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a laid-back vibe that makes you feel right at home.

I opted for the burrito for lunch, and it did not disappoint. It was absolutely delicious — packed with flavor and perfectly balanced. The filling was hearty and satisfying, with fresh veggies and savory spices, all wrapped up in a soft, perfectly toasted tortilla. You can really tell that the ingredients are of high quality, and everything tasted so fresh!

The menu has a variety of vegan options, making it a great spot whether you're fully plant-based or just looking to try something new. The staff were friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience..

Extremely good food

I had a Francesinha and a steak with chimimurri, both were excellent. The "pastéis de nata" (custard cream tarts) are also amazing.

Pros: Great food

Expected better

The food was good but the place looks modern and fancy and you expect the food would also be like that. I found most of the dishes a bit overpriced and a bit disappointing in general. For example the fries are store-bought frozen and the francesinha is not as good as others we've tried during our trip.

Pros: Very nice ambience, Very nice staff

Cons: Overpriced

Inoffensive in every regard

By trying to have a lil of everything, Kind Kitchen ends up offering nothing new or special.

The menu is a pastiche of poke, burgers and whatever sells. The food is not bad, but it ain't impressive or cheap. The Francesinha was easily the worst we've had in Portugal.

Flavors were one dimensional and it was just very average.

Safe and simple

If you want a solid place that has reliable options for a mixed crowd then this is it. But if you're a foodie or a good cook then this place may not live up to the hype around this restaurant.
The beans with seitan in a burrito didnt work for me.
The staff were super lovely (they came across as very happy to be working together) and let me charge my phone. Thank you!

Péssimo

Comida ok,boa mas nada especial, sem sal em um prato, muito sal em outro. Difícil entender como figura entre os melhores da cidade na avaliação.

Nada demais porém o que nos chateou foi o péssimo atendimento. Funcionários grossos do início ao fim.

Nice variety of dishes

Good food, nice staff, beautiful interior. It didn't blow me away personally (some of the dishes weren't really that special imo, after reading all the rave reviews), but nevertheless a fantastic vegan stop in Porto!

Best food!

It's the second time here and it's super super good! The seitan is made by them and is delicious and the francesinha sauce is heavenly. Their decor is super minimal and tasteful. Love it!
