History

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]
