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 love Kokkari.. it is one of my favs. We often have meetings there and it is great for ordering lots of starters to share. The only problem is the noise level can can be quite high and hard to conduct meetings. We will come back anyway because we love it.

    Another delicious dinner at Kokkari! My kids are now age 22 and 20 and they love the food and ambiance at Kokkari. Thank you for making this dinner so fun during their spring break from university!

    We felt rushed through dinner by our server, Tony. We have dined at Kokkari many many times. Disappointed.
