    Everything we had was delicious (goulash, fish cakes, a salad) and felt (high quality) homemade. I recommend it highly and can’t wait to return.

    Pickled vege and herring appetizers were good, but Cornish hen and stroganoff were exceptional. Read here to reserve honey cake when give dinner order, and very glad we did as we got the last piece! A true gem, with top food, service, and ambience.

    The drinks and food are consistently awesome. The food is high quality and a real taste of Eastern European food. The service has always been great. We travel from Wisconsin to here often, a must try if you’re anywhere close to.

    Cafe Dacha doesn't disappoint - always delicious food, outstanding service and beautiful outdoor setting. Follow-ups before the party as to our food and setting preferences were greatly appreciated as well. Will definitely come back again and again.
