• Mediterranean • Financial District / Embarcadero
Booked 164 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.

    Once again NOPA delivers on our dining experience. The food was delicious. We had wood baked beans, winter vegetable tagine , braised greens, and little gems salad. Service ( Felix & Rachel ) was very attentive. We will be going back soon.

    It was amazing! Our service was great. Such a fun experience and the food was so good. The only thing was the restaurant was super loud, would have been nice to be in a more quiet area. Still had a great experience though.

    For a place that’s been a fixture in SF for as long as Foreign Cinema my expectations were honestly low. I couldn’t have been more wrong. The food bests most of the 5 star restaurants I’ve frequented in SF, including some that are Michelin stars. The duck was perfectly cooked medium rare as requested and the grilled calamari was splendid as well. We topped off dinner with their flawless panacotta. Definitely going back.

    Kokkari never disappoints. I eat here regularly for business but this dinner was with my husband. We had the baked Feta with cherry tomatoes and the feta salad to start. All the starters are amazing and it is always difficult to choose among them. My husband had the lamb special - a whole lamb was roasted on site in the large fireplace spit in the dining room, and I had the lamb souvlaki. Both dishes were amazing. But the thing that sets Kokkari apart is the service. The servers have all been there for years and have a deft sense of engagement and timing. if you have questions, they are knowledgeable about every aspect of the menu and wine list. If you need to conduct business or have a romantic meal, they move around you with elegance and grace. We will go back as often as they will have us.
