Very busy restaurant, we have to make reservations two weeks in advance. Restaurant atmosphere was comfortable but the noise label is high. Food was extremely good also the display, but the survice was ok, I don't know if it was due to busy. It's a must visit if you like the Greek food.

The last time we had been to Kokkari might have been a decade ago. We remembered being so impressed with it. For us it is a special occasion restaurant plus we live on the peninsula so it's not close by. We love Greek food & even spent most of our honeymoon in various parts of Greece. The ambiance is still lovely at this restaurant & the service was top notch. The food however was not as good as we remembered. It definitely was not as good as some other Greek restaurants...

Kokkari never disappoints. It felt like we'd been there recently, but we were shocked to realize it had been almost 4 years! THAT'S how much our previous visits are in the forefront of our memories! The food was sensational, the rustic feel was comforting, and our server Shane was knowledgeable, charming and attentive. Really, just the perfect experience. We'll be back sooner than 4 years!!
