    Cow-a-Bunga

    Food was great, but the service was slower than expected. My husband and I came with two friends--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.

    Komodo Loco in Denton is one of those places that just gets the balance right--great food, fun vibe, 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.

    The cure salmon dish. Good, kinda strange.

    Good food and great happy hour. My wife and I stopped by during a visit to Denton's Halloween which is super cool, but I digress. The place is real homey and very approachable. We stopped in around 5pm and found they have happy hour which was a nice surprise. We ordered a few items off that menu, but also wanted to try some regular items as well. The tuna and krab cones were really nice and light. Perfect to share over drinks. We always get an order of escolar when we find it. It was nicely cut and scored which made for an excellent chew. The last item to arrive was salmon dish called the cure. It had nice, thick slices of salmon with torched skin over a bed of soba noodles. It was okay and kind of strange. The torch really did a number on the skin. I would have preferred and hot skillet sear since the torch left it bitter and dusty from the ash. We are glad we tried it but wouldn't get it again. The service was great. We never ran out of drinks and had no questions on the progress of our order. We will come back every time we visit Denton.

    Smoked Yellowtail

    Was in town for a conference and used Yelp to scout out some nearby food options. Parking in the area is a bit tricky, but once you manage that, the walk around this little strip is easy and enjoyable. Lots of food and bar options nearby--it definitely has that small college town vibe (because it is one). I grabbed a seat at the bar and was greeted right away. Service was fast and friendly, which I appreciated since I was on a time crunch. I probably wouldn't return just because I'd want to explore other places if I'm ever back in town, but this spot did the job. What I ordered: Veg Out Roll Smoked Yellowtail Belly A mocktail (bartender's creation, since there's no mocktail menu) Food was fresh, well-prepared, and hit the spot. Solid choice if you're in the area.

    Honestly, this was such a great spot! Went there for the first time and realized it was happy hour with loads of options. Our waitress Victoria was so nice too. We got a couple of maki rolls, their loaded tots, miso soup, house salad (amazing dressing), a signature roll, and the bulgogi yakisoba. All dishes were great! Really enjoyed the variety offered. Also, loved the atmosphere and warm vibes.

    Amazing place to snag a seat on a Friday night. Wow is all I can say. The food is amazing and the drinks are top tier. The bartenders are knowledgeable and give good recommendations. Make sure to get the LARGE loaded tots to share because they're addicting.

    Southern Smoke ramen
    Tiffany F.

    I went with a friend on a Friday evening and had a great experience overall! The restaurant was decked out in Halloween decorations which we loved. We had the loco egg rolls which have chorizo, I've never had that combination and loved it! I also got the southern smoked ramen and my friend got the yakisoba. The only thing about my ramen was not impressed with are the eggs, even in the picture, their cook looks a bit off like they either overcooked or had them sitting a while. Another thing was we ordered diet Mexican Coke and was served flat about 3 times until the machine eventually worked. We thankfully had an attentive and great server that noticed they were flat and gave us a warning each time, and to let her know if they were flat. Because of her kindness and transparency it was no big deal, or else we would have been more hesitant to complain about them. I'd definitely come again.

    This place is phenomenal! I was m town for a vid wrench and was not expecting anything super great. Luckily, my coworker suggest we try here and I admit I was blown away! In fact, it was so good I came here two nights in a row. The location is great with plenty of public parking down the street. The vibe is pretty hip and fits the food quite well. Both nights we shared several apps, and I ordered a sushi roll and a bowl of ramen. Everything that everyone had both nights was incredible! And on top of that, prices were great. I would definitely come here again, if ever back in the area.

    Favorite sushi spot in Denton. Not one bad thing to order off this menu. Our servers are always super friendly and helpful. You have got to try the salon belly!

    Fried chicken Bao Buns
    Peaches W.

    This Asian-Tex fusion spot in the heart of the college scene (right between UNT & TWU) delivers big flavor and great vibes. The bao buns are soft, flavorful, and packed with variety, the fried rice hits every comfort-food note, and the cocktails are bold and fun--just the way we like them. Perfect for a casual bite, date night, or hanging with friends. We'll definitely be back!

    Did not have "eat some freaking excellent sushi in denton" on my list. I have been well and humbled. We visited my brothers family and he took us here. Very attentive server who helped us choose between all the things. She gave great advice--we got the yellowtail belly for dessert. Lol Fun decor, comfortable, and a great place to spend the evening.

    Amazing place! I am visiting from California, and the customer service was outstanding. We ordered…read moreour food to go, and they kindly seated us at a table while we waited. They even served us a salad and water during the wait, which was such a thoughtful touch. The food was delicious! We ordered the hibachi steak, sushi deluxe, and chicken katsu, and everything was excellent. We loved this place--great food and amazing customer service. Whenever we are back in Denton, we will definitely visit again!

    We started eating here last summer and were impressed with the food, ambience and service. However,…read morethe last 3 times we have eaten here, since October, the food has declined. I consistently get the chicken katsu. The last 3 times it was overcooked and chewy, the breading too brown, and the breading slid off. This last time we went this week in January, and probably our last, service was awful. The young girl barely greeted us and sort of just told us at the middle of the restaurant where to sit. Then, our party of 3 ordered. As our lunch was delivered, my husband didn't get anything. We thought maybe they were just behind. I finally called her over and asked about his meal. Instead of being helpful, she copped an attitude and immediately pulled out her ticket book and said, "No! He didn't order! He said egg rolls!" I looked at her and said, "I heard him order the bento box" and he said he had. My daughter even heard it. She continued to argue and I just told her never mind, I didn't want to argue with her. There were no helpful solutions from her such as, "I am so sorry I didn't hear you (or most likely understand him), why don't I put the order in for you now?" Nope! So we sat awkwardly eating while my husband just sat there. He went next door at Marco's to order a pizza to take home. We eat out a lot and it seems to us this younger generation need lessons on how to talk to people and take accountability. We were nice to her. But she immediately took offense and didn't take steps to attempt to solve the problem. Lazy! We will not return here as these Japanese sushi restaurants are a dime a dozen now.
