Read moreKendrick’s is a family restaurant shaped by the places, people, and kitchens that have influenced Chef Dustin Kendrick throughout his life.
Dustin learned to cook from his father, Chef David Kendrick, who's influence remains at the heart of his cooking. Portuguese and Italian family traditions, the color and character of the Caribbean, the art of classical French cuisine, and ingredients of the Lowcountry have each found their way into his cooking, creating a perspective that is distinctly his own.
The result is a menu that draws from European traditions without being defined by them, guided by what excites us in the kitchen: fish coming out of local waters, produce at its peak, an old family preparation worth bringing back, and familiar ingredients approached from an entirely different direction.
We believe food should be approachable, but never predictable. Some dishes will evolve with the seasons, making the most of ingredients when they are at their best, while others will become part of the fabric of Kendrick’s.
At its heart, Kendrick’s is about carrying something forward. It comes from a family that has spent years cooking, serving, working alongside one another, and building a restaurant around the simple belief that good food brings people together.
