Let me just start by saying that Komodo Loco has officially become one of our main go-to restaurants. Literally any day of the week we try to come up with a reason to head on over to Denton to get us some delicious grub in this relaxing and chilling joint. Having a bad day and need some comfort food? Komodo Loco. Had a good day and want to celebrate? Komodo Loco. Just wanna go out tonight and have a couple of drinks? Komodo Loco. You might think I'm being overly dramatic, but I'm seriously not. We love to go out and seek out places with great environments, good food, excellent drinks, and good service. As most people probably already know, it's not always so easy to find a place that has a five star rating for each one of those parts of the experience. That's where Komodo Loco stands tall above the rest of the forest, it simply ACES every aspect of the restaurant experience. Not once have we gone here and had a bad drink, a bad meal, bad customer service, or a bad environment. Every box is checked off, each and every time we've gone. That's something we absolutely love about this place: that consistency of quality. There was even a time where our server got my order wrong and brought out something I DIDN'T order along with what I DID order, and what I DID order wasn't how I ordered it. I don't know if it was due to COVID or something else, but she actually let us keep both of those items, in addition to bringing out what I had actually ordered, without charging us for the extra two items. So not only did she own up to the mistake, she corrected it, and because she let us keep the other two items, I actually discovered an entirely new dish that I hadn't tried before, something I just might order the next time I'm there. I just can't express enough how awesome this place is. In case you missed it earlier, the food and drink are amazing. We tried most of the cocktail menu, and spoiler alert, they're all great! Our favorite is the Cowboy Bebop, which that's another thing we love about the drinks, they're mostly all named after awesome anime! We've tried several of their rice bowls, their bao, ramen, and plenty of their appetizers and dessert as well. Some of the standouts are their smoked miso soup, their crispy chicken bao, and their fried sopapilla dessert. We still have yet to find anything we don't like on the menu, so whatever looks good to you just go for it! In conclusion: this place is great, just go there and have a great time! read more

Inventive menu and amazing service. I recommend the totchos (tator tot nachos)!! The cocktails were a little expensive but they were strong so that makes up for it read more

I ordered the Smoked tofu bao and I thought it was very well done. First, I thought that the atmosphere of the restaurant was unique and gave me the vibes of a night bar. Also the location was pretty hidden so you wouldn't find it if you are just walking around Denton square. The food was amazing though. I thought that the bao had the right fluffy and soft texture on the flour wrap and had just enough ingredients in it. There was fried crispy tofu, carrot, spring onions and more that gave the dish the right balance of a light and delicious meal. Dipped with soy sauce, this dish is complete and makes you feel great after leaving the restaurant too. I loved this place and will definitely come back again! read more

Tried Komodo tonight with my 8 year old in tow for the first time. Love the location. Had some trouble finding parking, as it was Saturday night around 7pm, and in Denton, parking around there is scarce, to say the least... Interior and setup were true to Denton fashion(which I love) eclectic, different, and trendy. We were sat at a high top table and quickly greeted...we ordered the spicy edamame and the miso soup for my 8 year old, and I ordered a cocktail(Depeche Mule) which was fantastic!...For main meals, we ordered 3 rolls of sushi( the fuego rojo, beef fajita, and cow-a-bunga) and a bao bowl for the kiddo... My kid RAVED about the miso and finished it in record time, a good thing indeed for an 8 year old to sing the praise of miso... The fuego & beef fajita roll were different and inspired, and we finished every crumb, dollop of sauce, and speck... the cow-a-bunga...nooot so much, as it seemed to be overpowered by a horseradish taste we couldn't shake... For dessert we tried the sopapilla cheesecake, and it was enjoyable, but to me, tasted a bit like fruity pebbles or fruit loops, not sopapilla... Regardless, it was yet another hit with the kid and he nearly ate an entire portion by himself... All-in-all we left with full bellies, liked the chill atmosphere, and will most definitely be back...with or without kids. There is something for both crowds....single, married, kids, no kids, big groups, or eating alone...its a WIN for us! read more

What a wonderful find in Denton. Kinda off the beaten path but sooo worth it. The wife and I tried a little bit of everything. Duck wings, chik a rone's, chicken boa, ninja tots(my fav), spicy tuna roll, and the cow a bunga roll. Everything was amazing. Would like to thank our waiter Nathan for the wonderful service and recommendations. read more

One of the few places in town where you can get consistency. The food, drinks, and service are always stellar.

Love this place! Great food, great ambiance, pretty vegetarian friendly (although COULD be better, as I have to do a lot of substitutions). But, still easily my favorite restaurant in town! read more

We went on a busy night, but still recieved excellent service. The food here is a fun Texas-Asian fusion that hits the bullseye. All three of the dishes we ordered resulted in plate licking at the end! I would highly recommend this place for date night. read more

I love how this restaurant offers vegan options. The veggie rolls and tofu baos are so yummy.

Yummy food! Love the rolls and the Yaki! The service is always quick and friendly. The restaurant is clean and menu is good.

I'm not an adventurous eater, but everything I tried here tasted wonderful. The wait was LONG (an hour and a half) but we got on the waitlist and when to Oak Street until the texted us. Service was wonderful. Andy was our waitress. She was friendly, fast, and efficient. I had the miso soup (pretty standard), orange fried rice (so good! And not spicy at all) and for dessert I had a cereal milk macaroon ice cream sandwich. It was good, but very sweet. If I went back I would've got something more plain. Friends got tachos and fried cheesecake (and others things but this is what I tried). I'm not a fan of cheesecake but anyone who is will LOVE and the tachos were delicious. All in all we were there for a whole - around 2 hours, but it never felt like it. Loud atmosphere, but to be expected on the square on a weekend. Would go again! read more

Great food. Always quick. They can be slow at busier times but the staff more than makes up for it.

Worth the price always good service. The food is bommbbb even my dad who I had never seen eat sushi before in his life liked it.

Awesome food!! Wait staff was a bit unfriendly but the food was worth it. Also a good beer selection

Food was terrible, place smelled like spoiled food, old oil- I should have turned around at door- Friends had tried it a year ago and liked it- I would really avoid read more

I loved those smoked tofu Bao ! And the rest of the meal was also very good . I wish you were open for lunch read more

Great food, great service. Highly recommend it. I've had a great experience every time I have gone. Order the fried mushrooms for an appetizer. You'll thank me. Enjoy! read more

We don't get to the square much but when we do Komodo sushi is the stop. Sure there's usually a wait,(hint get on the wait list and go across the street for some drafts at oak street.) but when they call your number and your tables ready it is an experience the moment you sit down. The staff is fantastic knowledgeable and welcoming. The bartenders are great and we had one of their versions of a sake bomb.(I think they use cider beer), it is fantastic. The food is fantastic. Go for light sauce if you're trying to really taste the fish but all of their selections are great. I like the spicy tuna dishes! Komodo is a treat ! read more

This is our absolute favorite spot in Denton. Always good food and good service, especially China up at the bar! Keep doing what y'all are doing. read more

I can't say enough good things about this place. I originally went here because I am a true lover of all types of Asian cuisine and KL catered to the plant-based diet I was following at the time it opened. Not only was the ambiance nice, but myself my my omni friends were able to equally enjoy a nice meal. I enjoyed a miso ramen bowl with tofu, while my friends enjoyed pork ramen and chicken rice bowls. We all thoroughly enjoyed our meals! Fast- forward to this week. It had been a while since I ordered from KL on Uber Eats, and yesterday I was pleasantly surprised to see there were even more vegan and vegetarian items! I am now a vegetarian, so I indulged in the kimchi totchos and the Veg Out sushi roll. The Veg Out roll is HUGE and filled with so many goodies such as marinated mushrooms, tofu, and veggies. It was fantastic, but it is definitely more for vegetarians that still enjoy the flavor of meat but don't want to eat meat. It was a little too "chicken-y" for my taste, but I think it'll be popular among the veg community. Today I got the vegetarian Caesar and it was amazing! It has a little spice and terrific flavor. To the folks at KL, you're doing amazing, sweetie! read more

Phenomenal food in the most unique location. Their drink creations are also amazing! The only thing is there is usually a long wait, but it's worth it! read more

Checked out the hype and was not disappointed. Wife had the fajita roll because she is pregnant while I had an assortment of fish. I'm pretty sure my wife and I will make sure the fajita roll will always be part of our order. It was really good! read more

Seems sketchy the first time walking up to the door, but seeing as everyone in my party, all the hosts/servers, and all other patrons were white, I think I got exactly what I expected. Over priced and average tasting, I wouldn't come here as a date because it's too loud. Not bad tasting, but not worth the $$ IMO. Also. Like. Interesting choice to have your Christmas party at a sushi place but go off Kings. read more

We always have an enjoyable time here. There can be a wait for a table, but it is well worth it! Their menu is varied and very delicious. Our group typically gets a few appetizers, sushi rolls, and occasionally the rice or noodle bowls, and we always leave pleased. Cocktails, beer, and wine selections are great as well. read more

Kookie little Asian/Mexican fusion spot with a fun atmosphere. We ordered the gyoza, shrimp tempura and loco egg rolls as appetizers. The gyoza and shrimp were a hit with all four of us, our group was split on the chorizo egg rolls...I liked them, but others did not. After that we went raw fish crazy with a couple of orders of mixed sashimi, a Komodo Tower (tuna, crab, avocado rice), a Dragon's Razor Sashimi (think Yellowtail Heaven), and a couple of rolls. Overall we liked what we got, but we wished for a more extensive menu and a larger selection of fish. Everything seemed to be tuna, salmon, hamachi and crab. Will we be back? Probably not in favor of a more comprehensive sushi restaurant, but we did enjoy our visit. read more
