Description
The Greek food at Demetra and Spiros Rouvas' tiny, peach-colored restaurant in West Seattle is well suited for a night out with the family. Kokoras Greek Grill is brawny and likable, piling big, simple flavors on top of each other. If you bring a big enough group, maybe you'll start your meal with an appetizer combo: eggplant salad, skordalia (potato-garlic spread), calamari, and taramosalata (smoked carp roe whipped with oil and lemon) that you scoop up with stacks of warm, soft pita. Maybe you finish it with a cube of nutty, sticky baklava. But you don't need to, because the sandwiches and platters of souvlaki, gyros, and grilled vegetables are affordable and gigantic.
