This is sort of the equivalent of a breastfeeding question in cat forums. We have two new kittens and after quite a bit of research, choose Blue Buffalo for them.

It's a bit outdated and doesn't mention Blue Buffalo, but has a lot of good info.
My experience with Blue Buffalo has been good. The kittens love it. I also switched our older cat to it, but she is kind of picky and it hasn't gone over as well. I'm using the wet by the way, but will be introducing Blue Buffalo dry as well.
Most of the premium brands should be fine. Other brands I've had good luck with are Merrick and Wellness. Merrick doesn't have kitten food, but have "all ages" food that either kittens or Cats can eat.
