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.

    I brought a friend here for the first time - tempting her with the horseradish vodka. She fell in love with it and every dish that we ordered. Absolutely scrumptious - everything. And a wonderful waiter who took good care of us.

    By far the best eating/drinking experience I’ve had in Portland. The food was amazing and great portion sizes and the vodkas were awesome! (Horseradish vodka is a must-try. I took home a bottle!) We loved talking to the people at the table next to us and talking about the various dishes. What’s best is the way the restaurant is run - fair wages and free healthcare to employees. Knowing that added to the joy of the experience.

    Unique and charming. We ordered an assortment of dishes, along with a Moscow Mule and horseradish martini (both were delicious). Not all were to my wife's taste but we'll be back to sample more.

    Food is Ok, you could find similar stuff at Russian grocery store. They seated us, served a salad and forgot about us for almost an hour. Apologized later and offered desert on the house. Portions are small, you need to order multiple dishes to get full. Billed automatically 22% tip despite poor service. Would not recommend.
