Price: Expensive

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.

An exceptionally stylish supper club, civilized speakeasy, a sophisticated saloon. Each of these "personae" is housed in a soaring two-story interior distinguished by a gently curving mahogany bar, fluted columns with ornate capitals, stunning original art, plush banquettes, cozy booths, starched linens, glittering glasses, and polished flatware. Overall, the ambiance is pure 1930's and 1940's - tasteful art moderne reminiscent of the glory days of Cunard and French Line ships. Fashionable and glamorous are the hallmarks. Trendy is simply not a part of the BIX culture. The clientele at BIX ranges from San Francisco movers-and-shakers to "savvy travelers" - owner Doug Biederbeck's term for the many diners in the know from out of town who patronize his establishment. All of them step from the featureless alley into another world - a world of superb cookery and libations, of sparkling service, of stylish nostalgia, of polished live jazz. That world is BIX.

    Famous for their lamb chops, these were worth every penny. I haven’t had such good lamb since I left Chicago or visited Greece. My husband had the moussaka which was excellent. He had the lentil soup and I had the Greek salad both of which were really really good. The food was worth the cost. My only complaint was the noise. The back room was loud. We will return. I would consider buying the cookbook to get the recipe for those chops.

    Fantastic meal at BIX last night. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed sharing a Caesar Salad and we both had the Black Bass…delicious! Finished the evening with amazing dessert. Host coached us through excellent after dinner brandy’s. Just wish we had a later seating to hear more live music. Next time! Highly recommended.

    The dinner was outstanding, and the staff even better. Highly recommend Miller & Lux at Chase Center for a wonderful experience, beginning to end. They go well beyond expectations, both by the chefs and the staff, in providing the culinary experience and care of a "dream come true" evening, which will be remembered and revisited time and again in the future. Bravo!
