Koko's Mediterranean Grille
Koko's Mediterranean Grille was opened in Chicago's West Town neighborhood by brothers George and Ted Kokoris, with the restaurant's name drawn directly from the family surname rather than being an invented brand name. The menu spans Mediterranean, Mexican, and American diner fare side by side, including gyros with meat sliced on site, falafel and shawarma sandwiches, spanakopita, hamburgers, and breakfast omelettes, reflecting the restaurant's positioning as an affordable, wide-ranging neighborhood grill rather than a single-cuisine specialist. Coverage of the restaurant has specifically highlighted that no menu item is priced over $10, positioning Koko's Mediterranean Grille as a deliberately budget-friendly option in a West Town neighborhood that has otherwise seen significant upscale development in recent years. Koko's Mediterranean Grille's combination of its Kokoris family ownership and name origin and its deliberately affordable, wide-ranging Mediterranean-meets-diner menu has made it a distinctive neighborhood fixture in West Town.
VS
Koko Wings
Koko Wings operates on Manhattan's Upper West Side, at 248 W 106th Street, specializing in Korean-style fried chicken wings that are double-fried and hand-battered, a technique aimed at keeping the chicken crispy and juicy while staying comparatively light on oil. The restaurant's signature preparations include a half-and-half order splitting wings between soy garlic and spicy sauce, letting diners sample both of the restaurant's core flavor profiles in a single order rather than committing to just one. Beyond its wings, Koko Wings serves a broader menu of Korean bar-food staples, including seasoned and sweet potato fries, rice cakes, a bulgogi bowl with egg, and truffle fries, positioning the restaurant as a fuller Korean comfort-food destination rather than a wings-only specialist. Koko Wings's combination of its double-fried, hand-battered Korean fried chicken technique and its broader Korean bar-food menu has made it a well-reviewed neighborhood destination on Manhattan's Upper West Side.
