"When the usual brunch pairings are no longer enough to persuade you from a fully sedentary weekend in bed, Oreatha’s in Cascade is the antidote to bring you back into the joys of breakfast dishes. For weekend brunch, the rum butter alone makes the muffins and bread basket worth the order, and then there are starters like their panzanella salad, which is a fun Southern spin on the traditional bread salad, here with cornbread croutons and shredded collards. Oreatha’s also transforms Southern diner classics with items like biscuits with duck gravy or pork steak with eggs and masala gravy. Even the simple sophistication of the natural light-filled dining room makes this place feel far more impressive than your normal weekend breakfast joints." - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams, jacinta howard
"At Oreatha’s, owned by the chef behind Twisted Soul Cookhouse & Pours, Southern comfort food gets sprinkled with international flavors. Pork ribs come with sweet and sour sauce and Korean fried chicken comes garlicky sweet. The crispy Thai-Seasoned Catfish is the star choice, with hints of lemongrass and ginger, and a touch of chili heat. Swing by on a laidback date night or for patio meetups with friends to catch local musicians at third Wednesday night jazz." - nina reeder, jacinta howard, juli horsford
"The Cascade Heights restaurant occasionally has a performing jazz musician, in which case you can pretend you’re in some romance movie where all the characters coincidentally have an expert-level knowledge of music theory. But even when no one is playing, Oreatha’s just feels jazzy. From the gray abstract floor tiles and the cool blue glassware to the creative riffs on soul food classics, the place just sings to you. Start with the panzanella salad, which is a fun Southern spin on the traditional bread salad that uses cornbread croutons and peppery shredded collards. Then share the smoked duck pot pie or the fried Thai-seasoned catfish and grits." - nina reeder, juli horsford, jacinta howard
"Every third Wednesday at Oreatha’s, a jazz musician roams through the tables playing R&B covers. And Ginuwine's "Pony" played on a violin is just vibey enough to drown out the crunching of your Korean fried chicken dinner. This upscale soul food spot in Cascade Heights stands out from its fast-casual neighbors and works just as well for a romantic date night as it does for a fun meet-up with friends. Whatever the scenario, everyone is here for the homestyle comfort of the deeply seasoned half bird. Pair it with an Old Fashioned, and since there's a Whiskey Wednesday special, this could easily become your new favorite day of the week." - jacinta howard
"Oreatha’s takes a page from its sibling, Twisted Soul Cookhouse & Pours, serving up well-traveled soul food—think of it as comfort food with a passport, picking up flavors from neighborhood kitchens around the world. The crispy Thai-Seasoned Catfish is the star choice, with hints of lemongrass and ginger and a touch of chili heat. Chill on the patio in front of the restaurant, or head inside, where the space gives off original Aunt Viv energy, with stylish leather brown chairs, icy-colored mosaic floor tiles, vibrant art, and old-school R&B or jazz." - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams, jacinta howard
