Item Description

With Zagat ratings of “extraordinary to perfection” in every category, Kokkari delivers Greece on a platter like nobody else can. Sapphire-blue skies, dome-shaped rooflines, lush hillsides and ancient landscapes—you taste it all in the sumptuous cuisine of San Fran- cisco’s Kokkari Estiatorio. Spit-roasted lamb, spanakotiropita, grilled octopus, artichoke souvlaki, and yeaourti me meli—rich yogurt with spiced walnuts and dates drizzled with honey—are some of the wonders of this Mediterranean gem.

Your exclusive evening will take place in Kokkari’s Hania Room, completely separate from the main dining area. This private room has the feel of a wine cellar and features warm wood accents and rich tapestries. Each course of your meal will be accompanied by wine that has been masterfully chosen to enhance each dish to perfection.

Lauded as one of the best Greek restaurants in the country, this culinary landmark serves up food “fit for the gods”—and the President! Kokkari was invited to the White House last month to join an elite chef’s team to serve President Obama and a private audience in honor of Greek Independence Day. With credentials like this, Kokkari is sure to deliver an extraordinary night to remember!
