So delicious! As someone from the coast, it's been so hard to find good sushi this far inland. This place is the best sushi I have ever had in Texas by far! The atmosphere is great and really upbeat. The service really depends day by day but overall it's great food! read more

Got takeout and on a whim I decided on the Fun Guys app and that was not a mistake. Everything else was great, but those mushrooms and sauce stole the show. read more

This establishment is nicely decorated. Service was great. Did not visit the bar side but looks nice enough. Bro said that was the best fried rice he's ever had. I started with the kimchi dragon eggs- I expected more bacon and more flavor, didn't taste any kimchi. I also got a cucumber salad, Nice and small but good portion for me. I moved on to the Two baos, one pork belly and one chicken. Both were very tasty. I completed my meal with a specialty roll, slamming sake - it was okay I would go back and try other items on the menu. read more

Love it when restaurants embrace old buildings and incorporate the vibe into their decor. Three Denton boys determine to create a local non-traditional asian fusion sport with awesome totchos, ramen, and a variety of other foods. The bar looks like something from of a converted mechanic shop. Yelp reviews are definitely on point for this place. Free Parking less than a block away makes this off the square a "hole in the wall" destination for sure. read more

I absolutely love eating here! Over the last several, I've had most everything on the menu twice over and not one thing has been less than stellar in taste, quality or presentation! The drinks are superb as well! Fantastic liquor selections and creative/delicious cocktails! The cowboy bebop is divine! I'll be back soon read more

Great local spot! Stopped by here on a whim and there was plenty of seating. They have a good variety of different dishes aside from sushi! We ordered: -poke bowl with yellowtail, it was excellent -truffle hamachi, highly recommend. def my fave thing we ordered -yuzu ginger sashimi, seared albacore. it was a good fusion choice with plenty of crunch and flavor -cucumber salad, refreshing and crisp -assortment of nigiri, tuna, salmon, yellowtail, shrimp and octopus. everything was fresh and great quality The service was a bit slow and inattentive. Our server pretty much forgot about one of our sushi orders. Eventually it came out and we had to hurry because running tight on time by that point. Also, not a huge fan of the green lighting we were stuck in the back room with. Other than that, I'd still come back and give them another try soon. read more

Found this place through Yelp, and it was such a pleasant surprise. Absolute fusion! While there is no parking in front of the restaurant, there is a parking lot less than a block away! A short walk down the street, and it's tucked away on the side! We were greeted at the door, and quickly seated! The restaurant is broken into several rooms. Some were more quiet and reserved for more intimate parties, and other's were larger to accommodate larger parties! While we skipped the cocktails, they had an extensive menu I will be back to check out! We made a tapas meal, and ordered almost entirely from the appetizer menu! The egg rolls were yummy, and properly cooked. We got the 3 for $14 Bao, and got the fried chicken, pulled pork and smoked tofu! While I expected the tofu or pork to be the winner, we both went crazy for the fried chicken!! We also ordered the Totchos... yep, nacho's on tator tots! We went for the Killa Kimchi, which was great. We then finished with the Philly Who? roll. It was a sweet spin on a traditional Philadelphia Roll. Everyone was very nice, and the food was excellent! 5 STARS and we will be back! read more

I should be ashamed of myself...Komodo Loco is one of my favorite restaurants in Denton, and I have apparently forgotten to write a review after the multiple times I've been here! The vibe is fantastic. The music is always great and played at the perfect volume. Much of decor is Asian inspired and eclectic. Some of the tables are a tad too close for my liking, but it's never been a real issue. An ideal place for a first date! The service is always fast; I love the servers aren't required to wear a uniform and can show their personalities through their outfit. My consistent go-to here are the pulled pork totchos. If you get anything from here, get those! The shrimp tempura batter is perfectly light with a crunch. The pan seared pork gyoza is another go to of mine- whenever my mom visits we always get a handful of small plates to share. Not pictured that'd I've had before and loved are the KFD Wings. Just the right amount of heat with meaty wings! I tried the beef fajita roll for the first time last night, and that's definitely something I'll be getting again. DELISH!! The food here is obviously crafted with fresh ingredients and by someone with a fine tuned palate. Komodo Loco is a must try in Denton! read more

We had a great dinner here on a Friday night. I made reservations for 7:00pm, requested the front resto area, and we were seated there immediately upon arrival. We ordered shishito peppers and spicy tuna cones for appetizers, lovely. We ordered the sashimi combo, Mean Green & Horatio's Bayou rolls. All was very tasty. The icing for us was the bartender has an extensive Japanese Whiskey menu and made some great picks for us. Our server Anna riffed with us on Dead and Company all night. This is a fantastic restaurant with friendly staff! read more

Don't be deceived by the humble exterior, or the casual atmosphere, this restaurant is a gem! With their special "Asian food with a Latin flare", Komodo Loco offers full flavors that surpass most of their peers. If you're starting with an appetizer, you'll find it difficult to choose just one - and I couldn't, so we had the Loco Eggrolls and the Dragon Eggs. Both are delicious, and while I enjoyed the Eggrolls, the Eggs have such a great combination of flavors, I could eat a whole tray of them! The entrees were definitely the stars of the meal, as my family selected Yo's Poke Tostadas, the Bayou Tower, and a build-your-own Poke Bowl which was gluten-free. I had to go with a special, which I'm told is soon to be added to the regular menu - a Fried Noodle Bowl topped with your choice of proteins. Again, I couldn't choose just one, so I selected the Steak and Pork Belly. Both meats were outstanding, but I have to give the winning nod to the steak. It was tender, flavorful, juicy with a rich grilled taste. I couldn't go back and not get this again! For dessert, 3 of us chose the Joy Macaron Ice Cream Sando (this of a Oreo Ice Cream Sandwich in size, but the cookie is macaron, and they have four flavors to choose from), a very satisfying finish, and our 4th ordered the Tempura Sopapilla Cheesecake. This is everything it sounds like. It's New York-Mexican-Asian and the Texas State Fair together on your plate. If you're a fan of any of those things, this is a must! Topping the delicious food, the service was excellent. Friendly and attentive, but not intrusive. Overall, a great place for dinner not far from the square in Denton. read more

I never knew this place existed - very hidden and close to UNT campus! The atmosphere was really cool and decorated with some neon signs and servers were all friendly. The menu is pretty big too and there's a large variety of options to choose from including Ramen, Sushi, Bao, Rice Bowls, etc. I got the Komodo Style Ramen which is a shoyu broth with chasu pork belly, kimchi, corn, & more. It didn't taste like typical authentic ramen and was a little too salty for my liking however - probably won't be getting the ramen here again. I also tried the Edamame appetizer & a Salmon Poke Bowl which was good. Everything was a little pricy (coming from a college student) - ramen $13 and poke $17. Overall, a pretty cool interior with average food (+ they serve drinks) if you're looking for something new to try. read more

I cannot say enough about this place food was absolutely amazing. Started with pork belly boa buns. WOW! Great acidity with the pickled radish topping! You cannot go wrong with any of the ramen bowls. Shout out to Kellyn, our waitress. She was great! She steered us right with the sushi rolls! Thank you so much! We will definitely be back! And soon! read more

I don't know if I'm allowed to refer to my experience as orgasmic, but it was nothing short of such an acclaim. My socks have been knocked off and I would have licked every scrap off the plate but our server snatched it before I could be set loose upon it. This is the best spot in Denton for Japanese, don't let the prices scare you off, it's worth every cent. Come here!!! read more

Each dish was a work of art, beautifully presented and bursting with flavor. The attention to detail and quality of ingredients were evident in every bite, leaving me craving more with each mouthful. Not only was the food exceptional, but the portion sizes were also generous, ensuring that no one leaves the table hungry. And the best part? The prices were incredibly reasonable, making it accessible to all without compromising on quality. But what truly sets Komodo Loco, apart is the atmosphere. The vibe is relaxed yet vibrant, making it the perfect place to unwind with friends or enjoy a romantic dinner for two.

Love this place. Never disappoints. Have been a few times now while visiting my daughter from Virginia. Love the rustic decor. Awesome wall art. Service is always great. I tend to get cosmos but I'm not too crazy about theirs. How good the food is far outweighs this minor drawback. LOVE the pulled pork tachos. Get them every time. Most of the time I just get multiple appetizers. Gyozo perfectly seared and flavorful. Fried shrimp tempura has a nice light batter so you can appreciate the shrimp. Pork belly bao is yummy. Meat so tender. Not too fatty. Slaw adds a nice crunch. Will return here every time I visit. Prices good too Walking through kitchen to get to the bathroom is kinda weird though! read more

Was down in Denton With a friend and saw this place in the Google search results and decided to give it a shot as the menu looked interesting, we weren't there for a big meal but we tried a couple of things. We had the Pork gyoza and 2 bao buns one with fried chicken and the other with pork belly, both were delicious and the gyoza was very good as well especially the side sauce which I still don't know what was in it but it was a little bit spicy and very tasty . They had several interesting items on the menu including some unique ramen that I would like to try if I get an opportunity to come back, so if you're in the area and looking for some good solid Asian fusion food don't hesitate to stop by and try this place! read more
