Richard Satnick opened the first restaurant on Southeast Belmont in the Sunnyside neighborhood in August 2010. [1] He opened a second restaurant in northwest Portland in late 2011, [9] [10] [11] in a space which previously housed Lucy's Table. [12] [13] [14] Meat was sourced from Carmen Ranch in Wallowa, Oregon, as of 2014. [15] The "sister-restaurant" Dick's Primal Burger opened in southeast Portland's Woodstock neighborhood in 2015, offering counter service. [16] [17]

The Dick's Kitchen in Sunnyside closed and was replaced by Taqueria Los Puñales. [18] The outpost in northwest Portland closed and the space was later occupied by the Indian restaurant Bhuna. [19] [20] [21]
