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.

Always come here for the latkes and pastrami sandos, both of which are fantastic. I do wish I’d get more meat like Katz’s in NY, but it’ll do.

Seated quickly at a lovely table. Service was friendly and efficient. Food was spectacular. I love the simple elegant Greek salad . The lamb rib lets are cooked to perfect tenderness and simple flavors without being overpowered with herbs. Look forward to next time

Bistro Ember was the perfect spot for my birthday dinner date. The decor lends an intimate, warm atmosphere and the service was excellent; friendly but professional. We loved our food which was beautifully presented and delicious. We ordered beet salad, salmon, manti (Turkish dumplings) and fettuccine with prawns, which were all splendid. Their signature dessert, a chocolate coffee cake, is not to be missed. We can't wait to return and try other delights!
