    We drove 30 miles from home to try out Babai Bandi. The outdoor sitting and the experience of eating out on open benches with lights were fantastic. It's self-service. You place the order from the menu for all items near the counter (basically a table with menu items and a student standing behind it) once, and they give you a buzzer. Whenever your item is ready, you get a buzz, and you need to go pick it up. All items don't come at the same time, so depending on how many you ordered, you need to go multiple times to the truck to pick them up. Regarding food, the flavors were good, but even mild was super spicy. If you love spicy food, this is a must-try. Overall, it was a fun experience on a lovely evening!

    great option for South Indian street breakfast in Denton I've heard about this South Indian breakfast food truck a lot, so it's been on my list for a while now. We were invited to try the food on the owner in exchange for an honest food review. It's open until pretty late, so we headed there at 9. There's parking on the streets and in the lots, but it does fill up fast. There's also a couple of benches behind the truck with nice lighting and a fire. We were given ghee karam idly, paneer dosa, bezawada punugulu, chicken pakodi, chicken fried rice, and chai. The stars of the show were easily bezawada punugulu and chicken pakodi. Punugulu was perfectly crispy and went really nice with the peanut chutney. Chicken pakodi was the best I've had in a long time. It's salted well and has cashews mixed in as well. Ghee karam idly was also super soft and delicious, but I felt like it could have a little less spice. Paneer dosa was very filling and a great balance between crispy and a soft center. The dosa could use a little less ghee though. Chai was also a hit, with a hint of ginger. Chicken fried rice was good too, but it had a little too much green chili sauce for me.

    I consider Picone "Denton Italian" much in the way Komodo Loco gives me "Denton Japanese," & back…read morein the day Mr. Chopsticks was "Denton (broadly) Asian." To be clear, I celebrate the Denton fusion; it's one of my fave things about gems like Picone & Komodo Loco- the cuisine cannot be found anywhere else. Picone's chicken cutlets = mind blowing. The Piccata is my fave, but you really can't go wrong with any of their chicken parms. Their menu is fairly simple - no Cheesecake Factory novel to read. Check their website because they change their menu frequently. I love that they do this. Many things are staples but I've never been mad for choosing something new. Besides piccata, my partner likes the smash burger. I love the burnt carrots. Their focaccia pizza was outstanding. We like the potatoes and the Cesar salad, but they're outshined by the rest of the menu so we rarely get them. My recommendation: get a chicken parm of your choosing & one of their specials. Then share with one of your peeps. (The cutlets are the size of your head). Now let's talk staff and service. I have never ever had bad service there & have thoroughly enjoyed all interactions with staff. I feel like everyone really likes being there & cares about what they do. Go in with joy and joy will be returned to you. Ambiance: You order at the counter when you walk in. They'll give you a number and you sit wherever. It's super-casual, kinda small-ish hole-in-the-wall in the best way. It's always been doing a brisk business when we've gone. Be aware that the back room can get loud because of acoustics so keep that in mind if you're sensitive to it. There is limited onsite parking, but ton of street parking all around. I think that covers it. :) Enjoy!!

    I'm visiting from Boston, and my mother-in-law offered to take my sister-in-law and me out to…read moredinner. We wanted Italian food so I checked Yelp for recommendations. People seemed to love Picone, so we went! Interesting place. Small and casual. There is a counter at the front, and on the counter is a board which shows the menu. We were told we could take a picture of the menu with our phones, sit down and peruse it, or just go ahead and order. We ordered, were given a number card to place on our table, and the food was brought to us. MIL and I got the chicken parm, and SIL got the chicken piccata. SIL and I thought our meals were delicious. MIL said her chicken was overcooked and she didn't enjoy it. (She also didn't like that there were no printed menus, but she's 87 and likes things how she likes them.) The chicken parm comes with "Sunday Sauce," which they told me is marinara. To me, it was spicier than marinara, and I really liked it. The portions were very large, and I took most of my food home with me. I didn't notice if they offered desserts or not. In Boston we have great Italian food, and I hadn't found that in Denton - until now. This was surprisingly good food and I would definitely return.

    Komodo Loco in Denton is one of those places that just gets the balance right--great food, fun…read morevibe, and something a little different from the usual spots around the Square. The Asian-Latin fusion menu is creative without being weird about it. The sushi rolls are packed with flavor, the ingredients taste fresh, and everything feels thoughtfully put together. It's the kind of place where you go in planning to try one thing and end up wanting to come back to work your way through the menu. The atmosphere is laid-back and lively, perfect for grabbing a casual dinner or drinks with friends. Staff is friendly. Definitely worth a stop if you're in Denton and want something a little more interesting than the standard Tex-Mex lineup.

    Food was great, but the service was slower than expected. My husband and I came with two…read morefriends--we were seated right away and ordered drinks quickly. It wasn't very busy at the time, but our drinks still took about ten minutes to arrive. We started with potstickers, which were delicious, and our little one's avocado came out quickly, which we appreciated. However, after placing our order, we noticed several tables seated after us receiving their food before we did. At one point, we were concerned our order may have been overlooked. When the food finally arrived, it was very good--no complaints there--but the wait was a bit disappointing, especially since most of what we ordered were appetizers. Overall, we'd still come back, just hoping for a smoother experience next time.
