Kin & Folk was started by a couple friends and their wives. They came from the coast and brought a modern twist of Asian cuisine to our town! Amazing Happy Hour options! Creative cocktails and delicious bites to share, or enjoy all on your own! My favorites…their fried rice, crispy mushroom dish and I always like trying something new on their menu. They change it up a few times a year and it’s always delicious!
