TLDR: Great fusion-style food; limited healthful choices; no lunch specials; 5% off when paying via cash; complimentary chips and salsa with order
I think KoMex is one of those original restaurants that continued to thrive when the rest faded away. I waited to write my review after trying various items on the menu.
Korean-inspired dishes are pretty tasty and are pretty greasy. Kimchi fried rice has an overpowering kimchi flavor, but the kimchi as an accompaniment is welcome in the other rice dishes. Opt for the bulgogi nachos or bulgogi rice bowl if you're looking for something tasty. I like the rice bowl because it comes with a vinegar-based cold slaw, mixed greens, warm rice, kimchi, and protein of choice all under a sunny-side up egg. The flavors and temperature variation mesh well to provide a well-balanced meal.
While there are no lunch specials, the prices are average and won't break the bank, especially if you pay with cash to receive the discount. While this isn't my favorite location, I'm always happy to come here for a bite to eat.
