Booked 121 times today

Kokkari (pronounced “Ko-Kar-ee”) is a small fishing village located on the islands of Samos in the Aegean Sea, whose name is derived from the small onions that were once produced in the nearby fields. Its fertile soil and Mediterranean climate translated into an abundance of fresh produce as well as treasured seafood and game. Legend tells that Kokkari is the site where Orion, a mighty hunter and a young man of gigantic stature and great beauty, fell in love with the daughter of the king of Chios. For the love of her, Orion forged the island for wild game and seafood to prepare elaborate banquets in celebration of their love. Today, we hope you will enjoy your own celebration as you dine at Kokkari Estiatorio on food “fit for the Gods” prepared with an Aegean palate and the style of innovative California fare.

Always come here for the latkes and pastrami sandos, both of which are fantastic. I do wish I’d get more meat like Katz’s in NY, but it’ll do.

Seated quickly at a lovely table. Service was friendly and efficient. Food was spectacular. I love the simple elegant Greek salad . The lamb rib lets are cooked to perfect tenderness and simple flavors without being overpowered with herbs. Look forward to next time

Clearly one of the best restaurants in the Bay Area. We had the 9-course tasting menu, chef Claude’s signature. Usually for such menus there’s always one or two less interesting. Not here, no miss, everything was exquisite. Very polite and knowledgeable service staff. Quiet. Really a fantastic experience.

We visited this restaurant for a special occasion, and it exceeded our expectations in every way. The servers were incredibly friendly and polite, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The restaurant was also very accommodating of our food preferences, and every dish we tried was delicious and beautiful! The main dishes were filing and satisfying. To make our celebration even more special, they surprised us with personalized cards, a small gift, and a delicious cake! We can’t recommend this place highly enough!
