Best places in Kokomo to take out of town guests - Part 1
Hey Kokomo! Having out of town visitors? We’ve compiled a list chosen by the people of Kokomo, of the best restaurants and attractions to entertain your guests. This is part one of a three-part series! So keep an eye out for our complete list!
Martino’s Italian Villa
When we say Martino’s is a classic Kokomo staple, we aren’t kidding! Since 1962, The Martino family has been serving up delicious food in Kokomo! What started as a modest donut shop, transformed into a family-style restaurant with some of the best, home-cooked Italian food in Kokomo. On any given day, there are 3 generations of Martinos working side by side to deliver the freshest ingredients and the best service around. We suggest pizza or one of their famous pasta dishes, Rolla Vacca. Make sure to go check out Martino’s, you won’t be disappointed!

Half Moon Restaurant and Brewery
Half Moon is a great, local restaurant and brewery located on South Lafountain Street in Kokomo! There’s no better place to take guests for dinner and a beer than somewhere that brews it in-house. We particularly recommend their Pulled Pork Nachos or their Porter Chocolate Cake!
Coffee Junkiez
If you didn’t know already, drive-thru drink stations are a midwest thing. So it’s a must to take your out-of-towner friends to get a marshmallow coke from Coffee Junkiez. Who knew flavored fountain drinks are such a large part of midwest culture!
