Kachka is a restaurant serving Russian cuisine in Portland, Oregon's Buckman neighborhood, in the United States. [1] [2] [3]
Kachka was founded in 2014 and is owned by Israel and Bonnie Morales ( née Frumkin). [1] [4] Bonnie, who serves as the head chef, was born in Chicago where her Belarusian parents ran a restaurant near Wrigley Field in the 1990s. [1]
In late 2019, they opened Kachka Lavka, a grocery and deli, in the mezzanine of the restaurant. [4]
In 2020, Kachka opened a summer pop-up, Kachka Alfresca, which served 1990s-inspired comfort food. [2] [3] Kachka Alfresca closed in October 2020. [5]
The restaurant implemented service fees, replacing optional tipping. [6] [7]
