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.

Absolutely love this gem of a restaurant. Old school service, timeless delicious Italian food. Great wines and desserts. Amatriciana, Lasagna and Tonnarelli are our faves. For starters love the calamari or braesola.

We LOVED this restaurant. We sat inside so we couldn’t see the movie, but that wasn’t really an issue. The restaurant itself was stunning. Our server David was absolutely lovely. He really made our experience. The food was great, we got the smoked salmon, burrata with pears, sesame chicken, and pork chop. Everything was delicious. For dessert we got crème brûlée and a sort of chocolate mousse. Fantastic. It’s an expensive date but you pay for the food and the experience. Would go again!

Great dinner experience downtown! Ask for an elevator keycard on your way to the 5th floor (not marked in the elevator). Unless raining, the outdoor seating has a nice lounge vibe, and heaters. Nice drinks and bar area. Food and service were great, with some accessible comfort foods that my kids recognized and loved, nice ambiance. This place deserves to do well!
