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.

I can’t say enough about Base Camp. The food is authentic and full of flavor. The staff are kind and welcoming. My love for the comfort of Nepalese cuisine has been completely fulfilled by this place. The ribs, mo mo’s, and street style lo mein did not disappoint. Can’t wait to go back and try their curried dishes! It’s a popular spot, so reserve in advance and tip generously ~*

Kind of chaotic, sit at this table then no take this one. Food pretty excellent with the exception of Beef with Chilli Oil- overwhelmed by the oil. Other dishes were excellent. Overall good experience.

Food was excellent and being able to choose a “set” was very unique! Our server seemed pretty annoyed with us for whatever reason and we didn’t feel very welcomed the whole time we were there - maybe it was just an off day for them!
