About KINDRED Restaurant

Sydney pasta without the steep markup hits its stride at Darlington’s KINDRED. This cozy neighborhood dining room hums like a bustling family kitchen, serving handmade pasta and warm hospitality at accessible prices. Diners regularly single out the carrot triangoli bathed in rich brown butter, alongside rustic casarecce paired with tender lamb shoulder. House-baked sourdough arrives early in a basket, ideal for doing scarpetta with silky chicken liver parfait or smoked trout dip. The multi-course chef’s tasting menu keeps tables thoroughly fed without pretense, easily accommodating vegetarian preferences across every course. Upstairs rooms offer a quiet perch for group celebrations, finished off with classic tiramisu.

  • Handmade Pastas: Freshly shaped daily, featuring signature carrot triangoli in brown butter and slow-cooked lamb casarecce.
  • Essential Starters: Warm house-baked sourdough arrives alongside rich chicken liver parfait and smoked trout dip.
  • Chef's Tasting Menu: A generous multi-course feast with seamless dietary and vegetarian options at an accessible price point.
