Kokomo Restaurant & Lounge

"An over-the-top Caribbean restaurant in Williamsburg, known for its vibrant atmosphere and diverse Caribbean-inspired menu." - Melissa McCart

"When Kokomo opened during the pandemic, the New York Times exalted it as the party restaurant to meet the moment. Some three years later, this spot is still serving up vibrant Caribbean cooking and keeping things just as lively. Reservations for groups of up to nine people are available to book on Resy. Parties of 10 and up can inquire on the Kokomo website for private dining pricing." - Eater Staff, Beth Landman

"Kokomo, a new restaurant located steps from the waterfront in Williamsburg, is an ode to the owners’ Caribbean upbringing. The menu mixes up pan-Caribbean staples like braised oxtail and the Jamaican fruit ackee and tosses the ingredients on top of flatbreads for a laid-back, casual meal meant to evoke relaxed island vibes. The restaurant also has a number of vegan offerings on the menu, including lentil meatballs in a coconut curry sauce and jackfruit tacos. Kokomo is open for outdoor dining, takeout, and delivery via DoorDash and Uber Eats from Tuesday through Friday from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 12 p.m. to 10 p.m." - Eater Staff

"Owned by Ria and Kevol Graham, this restaurant offers an elevated Caribbean dining experience with dishes like coconut-curry mussels and Jamaican jerk shrimp. They also plan to open new ventures like OxKale and Bait & Bow." - Nicole K. Grimes
