• Mediterranean • Financial District / Embarcadero
Booked 140 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.

    Here’s the revised review: I had an excellent experience overall at Elena’s! The drinks were fantastic, and the atmosphere was perfect. The bartender was awesome—super attentive and friendly. The busboys were amazing, going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Honestly, they gave me better service than my waitress, who wasn’t quite on the ball. While her service left something to be desired, the rest of the staff really stepped up and made it a great night. Big thanks to the team at Elena’s for making it memorable!

Everything included -- just a few choices to make and drinks aplenty! Great martinis and service that is beyond (Trevor and our carver were fantastic). A San Francisco institution!

    My group of 9 feasted on the delicious food, starting with the Polenta, Grilled Artichokes, and Bruschetta for appetizers. All were tasty, but the Bruschetta was over the top good. Most of us ordered the 3-course pre-fixe. My 1st course Burrata Prosciutto. Luscious, salty, creamy. My main course Lobster Ravioli. C'mon! Rich, creamy, with Shrimp and Scallops. And finished off the meal with the decadent, creamy Panna Cotta with Berries. The service was outstanding. The dining room was lively and filled with people ... on a Tuesday night! (Of course, it's the week before Christmas, but still.)
