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.

    It’s so hard to find an exceptional dining establishment nowadays. Elena’s is my dining go to since February 2024. It was a fluke that I came upon this amazing place. The ambiance is so warm and inviting and classy. Everyone that interacted with us was friendly and professional and knowledgeable. We love the frozen margarita and the coconut margarita. The guacamole is fresh,chunky and delicious. The gobernado looked amazing and I will order that item in the future. Chicken quesadilla was perfect, loaded with chicken and perfectly crispy tortilla. Fish tacos looked great also and you know that we eat with our eyes first. The food presentations were all exceptional. Our server Kayla B. made us feel welcome and her timing for service was perfection. She made our entire meal from start to finish an amazing dining experience. My guests were very happy with Elena’s. Professionalism isn’t running rampant in our industry anymore and she is a breath of fresh air. The entire team, front and back of house(open kitchen) is awesome! Thank you once again for a phenomenal experience.
