Customer Reviews
Momo Kuro was a recommendation from a local friend and overall was a good. The food was delicious, and the prices reasonable. Unfortunately, there was a minor hiccup: some dishes arrived cold, the spring rolls and Korean fried chicken wings. However, the friendly staff quickly rectified the situation by taking them back to be reheated. Once returned, they were perfect. Hopefully they won't make this mistake again, cause the the restaurant has amazing vibe and the food was overall tasty. Also a note that they don't serve alcohol, but you're welcome to bring your own. I will definitely give it another try when I'm back again.
Service was sluggish and kitchen far too loud. Kimchi was forgotten in the bao. Bao beef was a bit dry but sauce saved the day. The fried tofu in the tofu bowl was too oily and lacked freshness. Average experience overall.
Can’t remember the last time I had such a terrible meal. They were out of stock on three of the things we ordered - on a Saturday night. No matter what poke bowl you order - they are all exactly the same. Tasteless. The tofu in the bowl was meant to be crispy - it was just thrown on top, raw, straight from the box, watery, unmarinated and tasteless. The remainder of the bowl was cold broccoli and cauliflower. Perhaps the chef called in sick that day? Absolutely disgusting. No flair, awful atmosphere and a waste of money. Poo poo guys.
I enjoyed my business meeting there while enjoying their food and service they had .i enjoyed the view and space .they have taste food.
