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.

    This was our first time at Kachka, and the staff was wonderful at helping us decide what to eat for a party of 6 eating family style. We got the 40/per person cold dish spread which was fantastic. It was like tasting of their best cold dishes all brought several at a time and explained very well. We followed by several hot dishes to share. There is no tipping at Kachka, and they put on a 22 percent service fee, so be aware of that. With that said, the staff here was incredible. Since she was not "working for a tip" she very easily could have been no as attentive to our larger group, but this was not the case at all. It's the best service I have had in a long time at a restaurant. I gave 5 stars on every category. There wasn't a single thing I ate that I didn't love (and we tired a lot of dishes). The drinks were wonderful, and the staff was knowledgable even about the many types of vodka. We were seated promptly at our reservation time. The decor and energy in the building was spot on. And as I explained, the service was fantastic. If you're visiting Portland, or live here, this needs to be number 1 on your list! I will certainly be back! Gabe

    Service, quantity and quality of food is not worth the $$. Very poor attitudes from staff

    Hi Lindsay, I am disappointed to hear that your experience did not meet your expectation, especially the bit about the staff. We strive to set fair prices, serve delicious food and create unique and memorable experience for our guests, anything short of that is not never the intention. I hope you will give us another chance to provide that for you in the future.

    I had not been to Kachka for several years. The food and ambience was still good, but the service was mediocre, albeit friendly and courteous. Our server and/or bartender forgot a drink order. We waited and finally asked for our check.
