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.

    We had 9 people in our party and the server was incredibly helpful and gave great portion suggestions so that everyone got a couple bites of everything and no one was hungry. It was my friend’s birthday dinner and they even did a lil birthday treat for here at the end- hospitality at its finest. I love this restaurant and I was excited to lead a whole group of people who had never been there before. Everyone had such a good time and the food came out at the perfect pace. 10/10 every time I eat here

    Slow start but fantastic service. The team went out of their way to accommodate one individual with lactose concerns. Above and beyond expectations.

    My experience at Kachka was amazing. I've never had this type of cuisine before, but my server was so helpful in helping me decide what to order. I ended up doing the ruskie zasuki experience which is $40/person for an assortment of plates and it was more than enough food for 1 person. Every time a dish was dropped off, they helped to explain what the food was and how to eat it. I also tried the dumplings and a couple of the infused vodkas - horseradish and earl grey. Really recommend!

    Truly exceptional from start to finish. As a 3rd generation Belarusian immigrant, it was so beautiful to connect with a part of my heritage that was abandoned. Superb food with incredible staff. Get the rabbit, you won't be disappointed.

    Fantastic meal. Service was impeccable. We went with server recommendations for most items and they were fantastic. Highlights of the meal were: spinach pudding, beef carpaccio, and the cod liver buterbrodi. The cabbage rolls reminded me of a dish my great grandmother used to make- which goes to show how well Kachka honors the heart of recipes while still making them feel special and fresh. I do wish we had gone here with another couple vs as a party of two as it is very family style, but this place is not to be missed. Rarely do you find places that have blended modern and homey in such an elegant way. We’ll be back.
