Awesome food! Great staff!
Great food 😋 Great service !
I’ve ate at Martino’s plenty of times. Always had great food, no complaints one bit. If I want some good Italian food I always go to Martino’s.
I have been driving by this restaurant for many years when visiting Kokomo. I recently tried it for the first time. I don’t plan to return on future visits to the town. First, let me say that the service was excellent. My server was attentive, brought things out at a good pace and got everything right. Here are the problems, however, which were significant: the spaghetti that came as a side order to my entrée was EXTREMELY overcooked. Almost mushy, with some noodles stuck together. I did not eat most of it. The chicken in the chicken parmigiana was also overcooked. It was baked until it was dry and overly crispy. It was edible only because it was covered in sauce and melted cheese. I also ordered a sausage pizza to go. The top of the bag was saturated with grease when I received it. It only got worse during the drive home. The sausage itself was finely ground, and had an unusual flavor to it. The pizza was extremely thin and the crust was dried to a crisp and burned black around the edges. Thus, EVERYTHING I ordered was overly cooked. There was just no attention to detail in its preparation. In addition, the dining room experience itself was not something I want to repeat. My booth faced the kitchen, the doors to which were left open the entire time. So I was looking into the kitchen, which did not make for a nice dinner. That was unfortunate, because the dining room itself was comfortable. Making it worse was the fact that music was blaring from the kitchen so loudly that I could actually hear it more clearly than the soft music that was being played in the dining room. It was not a genre of music that I care for, and was really inconsistent with dining in an Italian restaurant. In a word, the music from the kitchen was irritating to me as a diner. That alone would probably have been enough for me not to return. I am surprised that neither a manager nor anyone else ever thought about the impact the kitchen was having on the few of us who were trying to enjoy our dinner in a somewhat quiet setting. All in all, a very disappointing experience. I expected so much more from an establishment that apparently has been around for so long.
first time to try the Italian Roast Beef. So delicious! All the best to the Martino family as well as the new owners.
Was in town for my daughter's birthday and needed to find lasagna for her birthday dinner. I called at 1:30pm, and Martinos was more than accommodating. I ordered a 1/2 pan of lasagna, a family size salad, breadsticks and garlic bread. They had my order hot and ready for pick up by 5:15. The salad was super fresh, the bread was delicious, and that lasagna was OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! I had never been to the restaurant, so I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was in no way disappointed! I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
Great spot for pizza and a salad! Their menu was full of other dishes I would have wanted to try. This would be a great place for parties, date night, or out with friends. Waitress was great. Restroom was clean. There is a separate bar area. If your on your way through Kokomo this is a spot to consider!
We met the owner and she was a delightfully interesting lady with stories about Italy and proud of their restaurant's Hall of Fame status, Their pizza is awesome and amongst the best I've ever tried. The pizza is simply perfect and generous in size and the staff are always great. It's always great to stop by for pizza and beer there. A true Kokomo treasure!
When I want to grab Italian food in Kokomo, I always think of Martino's first. For me and my family, it has the most authentic, friendly, and welcoming atmosphere. We have been going to Martino's for years. Their pizzas are always great. Their bread and buns can't be found elsewhere. All the food is delicious. The staff is always friendly and welcoming. I can't remember a time I had a negative experience at Martino's.There are a lot of great restaurants in Kokomo. There are even some places that have decent Italian food. But, when I was in San Francisco for four years, the only restaurant I genuinely missed was Martino's Italian Villa. It's that good.
Delicious. Best Stromboli’s in the Midwest!!
