Why they're an Icon

Executive chef: Bonnie Morales

From the OpenTable editors: When it opened in 2014, this trailblazing restaurant launched the country’s Eastern European culinary renaissance, garnering raves from Bon Appétit, Eater, GQ, and more. A decade in, Bonnie and Israel Morales’s ode to their roots is still a hotspot for its famed horseradish-infused vodka, zakuski (snacks) like caviar and roe, and clay pot rabbit. Decked with colorful posters and tablecloths sourced from Belarus, the inviting, bi-level space is one you’ll want to return to again and again.

    Every dish we ordered was roared with exquisite attention to detail. The smoked beets and fish board we with were both outstanding. Never tasted beets prepared that way. Of course everything on the fish board was great too, especially the squid. The variety of gently spiced pickles complemented the fish nicely. Don’t miss the herring in fur coat, a gorgeous multi-layered salad. And of course you need some dumplings—we had beef ones and cherry ones; I’d recommend the Cherry ones for dessert. For Mains we shared rabbit with latkes, and grilled chicken. Everything was delicious! A tad on the spendy side, but worth it.

    I visited Kachka for the first time and was very impressed! Service was quick and friendly, our server was able to make great recommendations about how to get the most out of the menu, and the food came out quickly and was fresh and hot. Everything was absolutely delicious. The ambiance of the restaurant is very charming, and although the noise level is moderate we could still hear each other talk without issue.

    Dinner at Kachka was wonderful. Great food, incredibly attentive service from everyone who worked there, especially our waiter, and just a great experience overall. Tried real caviar for the first time, which was a treat. The fish and pickle boards are awesome, the dumplings are fantastic, particularly the Siberian pelmeni. The rabbit in a clay pot was very 'comfort food', delicious. Didn't have room for dessert, unfortunately. Will definitely go back when we're in Portland again!

    Very friendly staff. Even though I was a party of 1 at this family-style dinner restaurant, staff were very proficient at offering me service, and I had an enjoyable solo experience.

    Once more, an incredible experience! Sharing starters, dumplings and the rabbit in a clay pot as a party of four was just perfect. Stocked up at Lavka, too. Will be back the next time we’re in Portland!

    The dumplings were amazing! We found the food flavorful and very smooth. The cheese dumplings were an evening favorite and most surprising. The Bird cake was one of the best cakes we’ve ever had.

    Our first time at Kachka, and it was great. It was our anniversary, and the house gifted us each a small glass of champagne to celebrate. The food was delicious and robust, the cocktails creative and tasty. Our server was very pleasant and efficient, and made us feel welcome. Food arrived quickly but not in a rush, and we were able to have a leisurely dinner and still able to make our next event slightly ahead of schedule. All in, a very impressive first-time experience, and highly recommend Kachka for anyone looking for a unique and satisfying experience.
