Kokkari Estiatorio San Francisco Reviews from The Last Year
Amazing Greek food.
Dare I say.... Better than most places I tried in Greece. Exceptional service.
Kokkari is the place where I go on special occasions like
Kokkari is the place where I go on special occasions like birthday, anniversary, or treat because I always get amazing experience w/beautiful food and super attentive service. The roasted octopus and stuffed calamari w/feta are must-try, and the lamb chop and rib eye steak are the best and you will remember for a very long time. The manager, Michele is very welcoming and the waiter Davide is truly professional.
My favorite restaurant in City arguably the whole bay.
The zucchini cakes are extremely addicting! I've even picked up 4 orders to take home just because I was in the area. Other items that stood out were the lamb chops and spreads with pita bread. Traditional Greek or Mediterranean menu but everything executed to perfection.
Great food, the service was incredible, really nice and
Great food, the service was incredible, really nice and quit restaurant. Ambiance was great as we had an early reservation. My daughter loved it!!! Will be back soon, plus they took great care of my 9yr old allergies
Amazing food, service and such welcoming staff! The octopus
Amazing food, service and such welcoming staff! The octopus was amazing. The private room does not have any signal but it is quiet and private for kids to be loud without worrying about other guests at the high end restaurant. One of our family member unfortunately got the car broken into when he street parked so definitely park in the structure across the street from the restaurant and do not leave any valuable. The restaurant was so helpful and let our family member stay in the restaurant for multiple hours while we were getting the logistics settled for the incident. I would still rate the restaurant 5 stars despite the experience. Just make sure that you are mindful of the area.
It just doesn't get any better than this.
Kokkari is one of our two favorite restaurants in San Francisco (the other being Gary Danko). From the moment you walk in to Kokkari, you just sense that "everything is going to be all right" no matter how your day has been. My wife started with the Avgolemone soup which she said is to die for. I started with an order of fried smelt. The smelt were perfectly cooked and spiced. For an old man like me, the order was more than I could handle but would be perfect for a younger buck with a bigger appetite. Despite my feeling somewhat wasteful, I would order this again. We shared a main, the Arnisio Souvlaki (spiced lamb skewer grilled with cucumber tomato salad and potatoes). It was truly magnificent and the perfect size to share with a side of Gigantes Beans (oven baked giant white beans with tomato sauce, olive oil, and feta). The beans dish is really listed as an appetizer, but eating it as a side was perfect for us. We always try to find different wines when dining at international restaurants, so we asked our server for a recommendation of a Greek wine that would pair appropriately with all our dishes. His recommendation was affordable and sheer perfection. It's been a few weeks since we were there, but just writing this literally makes my mouth water. Kokkari, we're coming back sooner than we had expected.
Finally had the chance to try the famous Kokkari and so
Finally had the chance to try the famous Kokkari and so glad I did! The fiance was able to snag a last minute reservation there and we were able to go around 7:30pm on a Monday night. The restaurant was crowded but lively but we were quickly seated. We ended up ordering: * lamb meatballs - these were delicious and absolutely loved the tomato sauce this came with * fried zucchini cakes - I'm not sure how to say the proper name but these were soooo good. Light crispy and flavorful in every bite! * lamb chops - soft succulent and juicy these were great with the fries it came with. Portions are a little small but food taste and quality is great * moussaka - at first I wasn't going to order this but I'm so glad I did! This was like a delicious light cloudy lasagna but without too much cheese? Not sure what the top part was but it was a creamy goodness * stuffed spring rolls with ice cream - this was the dessert and so delicious as it was filled with a custard and crispy outside. This went amazing with the pistachio ice cream! Overall the food and ambiance was awesome!
My dear friend took me to Kokkari to celebrate my birthday
My dear friend took me to Kokkari to celebrate my birthday a week ago, I had not been in over 15 years. The service was so spot on and personal - our waiter Jason did not miss a beat. He was thoroughly knowledgeable about everything on the menu and recommended wines that paired perfectly with our meal. The Manager Michele went above and beyond stopping by to check on us, and made sure we were happy with our food and service after our meal. The food was phenomenal, we tried several appetizers - Avgolemono, Octapodaki tou Yiorgou, Gigantes, and some sort of delicious bread with creamy feta, to die for! Then we shared a main course, Arnisio Souvlaki - the lamb was cooked to perfection and was bursting with flavor. (sorry for not taking photos, was too busy talking and eating!) Jason and Michele surprised me with a beautiful dessert and though I really did not have any room left, I managed to clean the plate. The meyer lemon pastry dessert was one of the best desserts I have every enjoyed. Being at Kokkari felt like I had escaped to another country, the whole experience was so fun, and positive. I will be sure to return and bring my family and friends for future celebrations! A special thank you to Jason and Michele that made the evening so memorable for me. And of course to my dear friend Jackie that treated me to dinner for my birthday. Can't wait to return soon. !
One day a greek uber driver recommended this place without
One day a greek uber driver recommended this place without hesitation when I asked about the best greek restaurant in the bay, so I gave it a try. Zucchini cake: (1.5/5) nothing special, a bit disappointing. Lamb chop: (5/5) the best lamb-related dish I've ever had. This lamb chop has become my standard for what a good lamb dish should be, and I'm afraid that I won't be satisfied with places out there. Whole sea bass: (3.5/5) taste-wise it's not really surprising but the technique to cook the fish off the grill was outstanding. Crispy and smoky outside & moist inside, but I don't think I will order it again. Greek donuts: (5/5) amazing small donut pieces halfway submerged in a honey with other small toppings. I'm craving this right now writing this. Galaktoboureko: (5/5) the famous dessert. I could have finished 3 plates of them. The combo with pistachio ice cream was very nice.
great experience on four different occasions
fabulous restaurant with great selection on menu, drink list and bar, and service/ ambience in the front room. this is our fourth time at this restaurant and it never disappoints. we continue to try different dishes on the menu and they continue to be wonderful. we have had the chili roasted shrimp, large beans, brussels sprouts, grilled artichoke as appetizers at different times, and kokkari and greek salads, and grilled whole fish and grilled halibut as mains, again at different times. there hasn't been a marginal dish that we were ever served. also the service is excellent: friendly and engaging in conversation but also unobtrusive. we will always go back to kokkari. my advice is to go early or late so you can get a table in the front room. otherwise you will be in one of the other areas which are larger and noisier. and if you're in the front you may see some recognizable figures dining at the lead table!
This week, my husband and I decided on a whim to go and
This week, my husband and I decided on a whim to go and celebrate our anniversary at Kokkari in San Francisco. We have not been back since Covid and were looking forward to supporting our favorite places. Upon our arrival, we were more than excited to find our old dear friend Michele di Ruoco at the front desk. Ironically, we had our wedding dinner at Michele's old restaurant, Capannina. It was so great to be back at Kokkari and even better to be with a great friend at the helm. The restaurant did not disappoint...the seabass was cooked perfectly and the the chicken souvlaki was excuisite with its sumptuous yogurt marinade...all topped off with a wonderful bottle of Helen Turley's wine. Our waiters were great, but having Michele with his big infectious smile, ensuring that everything was running smoothly, was the key component that made the day so special. My husband and I promised that we would now make Kokkari a monthly date night (It is definitely the best restaurant in San Francisco!) ...And we will make sure that we are there when Michele is in the house
Bad Night for the Kitchen?
I hope that it was just a bad evening for the kitchen. I have been to Kokkari several times over the last 10 years and have always enjoyed their moussaka. Unfortunately this was not one of those times. The lamb/ beef layer was dry, there were no layers of eggplant, ( if there had been, they were cooked to oblivion,) and there was a 2 inch lump of cooked potato at the bottom of the dish. So disappointing. For $37 I expect better quality.
Excellent food. Plan ahead for a reservation
Beautiful ambiance, great food. Good service. Order a bunch of plates and share everything family style. Great flavors. Highly recommended.
Just not worth it
Was here for dinner with my family. The menu selection was adequate and the service was good. The restaurant is nice. The food was ok but nothing special for the price you are paying. Our bill for 5 people was $645 (tip included) for a plain average meal. Simply not worth it and would not recommend for these reasons
Great Restaurant
We dined here for lunch. Really nice restaurant. Great menu. Awesome service. Greek dishes. Wood fired ovens. Highly recommended.
Very good Greek restaurant
Very good food in this high end Greek restaurant. Staff is courteous and swift, the dining room is spacious and welcoming. My lamb chops were excellent and I certainly could have eaten more than the two that were served. Original dessert of ouzo flavored sorbet with cucumbers was delicious. Not cheap obviously.
Great location & value of Money
The best Greek restaurant in San Francisco. I was interested in the dishes and drinks on the menu. Your manager was very polite in giving me a piece of advice on the signature dishes, starters, and desserts. Time to call it a day, and my final say is that you have a nice staff! thanks
Great Greek food!
We stopped in during a weekend girls trip and we’re looking for a quick late-night bite and glass of wine. We were pleasantly surprised to find an expansive yet warm and hospitable ambiance. The few plates we ordered were spot on! The flavors, the textures and the portions met all of our expectations! Also, great selection on the wine list—we’re super excited to find a Diamantakos xinomavro on the list!
Great Food, Rude Staff.
I have always loved Kokkari. Had dinner at the bar 10/7/23. We like to dine at the bar for the interactive experience. The bar tender was cold, unattentive and borderline rude. For example: when we sat down he was making a drink that was beautiful and interesting to me. When I asked him what it was he told me the name of it with an accent that I didn’t understand. When I asked him to explain it In English, he slammed the cocktail menu in front of me and pointed to the drink. The server was also a bit cold but warned up after chatting with him. Food was excellent, as it always has been. Though a bit soured due to the staff experience.

Working on your bid? |
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted. |
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from? |
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered? |
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
Virtual Name & Email on reservation
Hi Community,
I am new to this site and just recently bought a reservation here. I noticed that on the reservation page, it is booked under a random name and a virtual email address.
I can't find any button to change either the name or the email for this reservation I bought. So, should I just say that random name when I arrived at the restaurant? Not really sure about the procedures.
