Tucked away in a sleepy strip center off of Sonterra exists Auden's Kitchen - a restaurant that takes comfort food seriously. This place is a recent discovery for me but I plan on having a long relationship with Auden's Kitchen.
Its chef/owner is classically trained chef Bruce Auden who hails from London. Auden is a highly touted chef who was recently named one of the "Ten Best New Chefs in America" by Food and Wine magazine. The restaurant's slogan is "We Take Good, Everyday Food to a New Level." My spin on that is this restaurant is Chef Auden's manifestation of the growing trend in European cooking of moving away from the Michelin-starred dining style to something more accessible. A style of serving food that is simple yet still yields extraordinary flavor. And I would say he has hit that mark.
Their big standout dishes are the fried chicken, fish 'n chips, chicken potpie and pizza. And it's one of the few places in San Antonio that serves outstanding corn bread. While I've never had it, I did notice they have a peanut butter and Nutella sandwich on the kids menu. I'm a Nutella fiend so I have to give them a star just for having that on the menu. They also have an extensive wine line that shouldn't be overlooked.
The dining room has a very sleek, modern feel to it with the concrete floors, chrome wire shelving and the neutral colors. It has an open kitchen layout so you can watch your food being prepared. It also has a very nice bar area with a huge TV in case you ever get stuck waiting for a table.
