About this restaurant

  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
  • Good for business meals
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.

    From the time we arrived to the time we left the experience was wonderful. Our server, Thierry was friendly and knowledgeable. The restroom is way in back and down an elevator and I was impressed he took time to show me exactly where it was. An outstanding experience!

    Absolutely amazing! Every dish was delicious from our starters to the main meal. The fish was some of the best I’ve ever had (Lavaraki sp?). Delicious lamb riblets, spanakopita…. One of the best restaurants in San Francisco.

    Making a 5 pm. reservation turned out to be a good idea. The pork belly appetizer was excellent. I would try the roast lamb next time!

    We did not know what to expect but everything we had exceeded it. We had the arugula salad, calamari, med sea bass, chicken, baklava and crepe puffs. Finished every bite. Service was excellent and the restaurant is beautiful
