Bringing Kalimera to Your Occasion
Order Catering →Absolutely incredible Mediterranean food! The octopus was perfectly grilled and the lamb shank melted in my mouth. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. Definitely our new favorite restaurant in Santa Rosa!

The falafel and hummus are the best I've had outside of the Mediterranean. Chef Kara's passion for authentic flavors really shows in every dish. The service was exceptional and the space is beautiful.

We came for a private dinner event and it was flawless. The family-style platters were generous and beautifully presented. The moussaka and Greek salad were standouts. We will be back for sure!

Kalimera is a gem in downtown Santa Rosa. The combo kebab platter was outstanding — perfectly seasoned and grilled. The warm Turkish lamps and decor create such a cozy Mediterranean atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Kalimera means "good morning" in Greek — a greeting that embodies warmth, presence, and the promise of a new day. Our restaurant is named after this spirit of welcome. Chef Ilyas Kara brings together decades of Mediterranean tradition with a contemporary sensibility, shaped by his experience as a chef aboard Celebrity cruise lines.
Each dish reflects a deep respect for seasonal ingredients — sourced from local purveyors and trusted partners across the Mediterranean — while continuing his vision of building a Mediterranean dream on every plate. We believe in casual fine dining — elegant yet approachable, refined yet relaxed. Come as you are and escape into the Mediterranean with us.
