Kokkari Estiatorio San Francisco Reviews
I can see why this joint is hard to get into at night.
We were guests of friends for a celebration. We had a booth for 4, but unfortunately it was near the beverage station in front. This restaurant is loud! Our server was pleasant and astute but could hardly hear her because of the volume. It was packed
The restaurant is lovely and the staff are awesome.
This is a big place so it was perfect for our table of 14-16. Our host had selected some very nice appetizers and mains to share. I really loved the hot cheese with lemon spritzed over the top, that was almost a show unto itself. The mains were a

I think I need to go back and try their meat / lamb to get full experience cause the vegetarian options were not that great/ flavorful. Favorite was the peach (super juicy and sweet) and burrata but the rest lacked a lot of flavor.

This used to be an amazing place but it's definitely lost
This used to be an amazing place but it's definitely lost something since before covid. Waiters used to take your coat; now you have to drape it over your chair -- at least have some hooks or a coat stand. They used to make suggestions for food

While our favorite restaurant in the bay area they were inflexible when my wife was in the hospital and we had to cancel our reservation for 7 family members and charged us the reservation fee x 7.
Business trip to the Bay Area
Some business associates took us here for lunch. Service was outstanding as was the food. We had several different appetizers, lunch entrees and desserts. 5 stars Highly recommend.
TABLES FOR TWO: BEWARE!!!!
Kokkari is a fantastic restaurant. The food is superb and the service exemplary. I rated it with 4 stars instead of 5 because of the table I was assigned to. It was a two top separated by a mere 5 inches to the next two top. We felt as if we were act

Spontaneous birthday dinner on a Monday, no reservation but got a lovely table in the middle of the restaurant on a surprisingly busy night. Fried Kefalotyri cheese, nectarine salad, braised goat with orzo & mizithra cheese, bourbon & gin coc
Amazing service from Stephanie!!
The atmosphere is old world with lots of wood, copper pots hanging, ovens roasting meat in plain view. Lots of people to give you excellent service, especially Stephanie, who we had a great interaction with. She was funny, entertaining, and all smile
Disappointed by Lack of Compassion at Kokkari
I am deeply disappointed with the customer service experience I had at Kokkari. I tried to cancel my reservation over 30 hours in advance because my wife had unfortunately fractured her ankle, and we were unable to make it the next day. Despite expla

We celebrated our 37th. anniversary at Kokkari and were delighted with both the service and the meal. We first celebrated an anniversary at Kokkari in 2009, then again in 2010 and lastly in 2014. We were amazed that in 2024 they have retained their e

Fabulous lunch with great food, service and atmosphere.
Tzaziki with fresh bread and chicken souvlaki were delicious. Impeccable, friendly service with attentive free drink refill. Interior with large fireplace with comfortable seating and warm, well lit atmosphere. The great reviews are fully justified,
Our dining experience was wonderful.
Daniel, our server, was great. He had perfect drink recommendations to pair with our food especially for someone who doesn't know a thing about wines. The food was amazing! The dolma appetizers is heavenly! Give it a try, it's a wonderful place and e

Not only was the food absolutely incredible, but the customer service was exemplary. Our server, Jason, was by far the BEST server I've ever had at any restaurant or meal EVER. That is no exaggeration. He was polite, whitty, and very knowledgeable an
Excellent restaurant
Excellent restaurant, highly recommend it. We had the lamb chops and rib eye steak. Friendly waiter whose father’s family came from Louth, Ireland, where we are from.
Delightful, delicious dining experience…
This incredibly beautiful restaurant was such a yummy treat but having Moises, at the bar, as our expert guide just took it over the top. His food and wine selections were just spot on and always served with his warm demeanor and fabulous smile. Kud
Don’t waste your time and money
One of the worst restaurants I have had the experience to visit. What a waste of time & money. Food is bland and standards need improving.. The manager, William, is arrogant and insincere .. he displays no authentic customer care skills and is

Charming room, excellent service, good food
We were seated at a lovely table in front of the fire. The room is charming and cozy. Our server was very attentive. Service was leisurely and we never felt rushed. Meals were food chocolate cake was great.
One of SF’s best
Went for a business lunch based on the reviews and lived up to its reputation. It is packed, so book ahead, but always a good sign when a place is packed. Started with the daily special, a sausage with cheese which had really nice flavors. I then h

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 e

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

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.

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

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
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 laye
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

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Kokkari Estiatorio San Francisco at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Kokkari Estiatorio San Francisco page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* MaternalRecord73, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's bid.
* MaternalRecord73 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to MaternalRecord73 for any questions Peter may have as MaternalRecord73 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* MaternalRecord73 now uses their connections at Kokkari Estiatorio San Francisco to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If MaternalRecord73 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, MaternalRecord73 receives the $200 reward which is credited to MaternalRecord73's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Kokkari Estiatorio San Francisco!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
