Momo Kuro

We went here during restaurant week. We had seen reviews that they were usually out of stock of items and no surprise when we got there they were out of stock of quite a few things which is not great. The food over all was average...some were really good and some not so good. For those wearing heels, beware the stairs to get there are crazy. The vibe is okay but some spots are a bit too dark. I don't think I'll go back.

Decided to visit for the 5 course tasting menu on Restaurant week. Disappointed on arrival to find out that more than a few of the Restaurant week menu items were not available. Couldn't even order coffee because the unbothered waitress advised that it was broken. From what was actually available - the Korean chicken wings was the only saving grace. The Peking duck pancakes were dry and flavorless. The beef Cheung fun was served on severly overcooked rice noodles. The beef Bao was just that - beef and mayo on a bao bun. The menu said that it comes with kimchi but I suppose that wasn't available as well. The vegetarian dumplings was unseasoned chunks of onion, mushrooms and edamame with a horrible overuse of what seems like a corn starch slurry that seeped into the dumpling. Not a good experience at all. A real shame seeing that a beautiful and prime spot is being by wasted on an establishment that cannot live up to their menu and provides lack lustre service.

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.

Great for sundowners, can be a bit noisy if one sits outside. Overall atmosphere is good. The food is a hit and miss. Some dishes are amazing, and some are ok. A nice touch with the chopsticks, not the standard ones one often finds. The big obvious one is, no alcohol is served, so bring your own if you are feeling for something stronger. I think they could incorporate non alcoholic cocktails into their menu. The drinks as they are, are a bit light.

I have been at Momo Kuro twice this month for dinner (Tuesday and Thursday night). The food is incredible and the views are great. There are quite a bit of stairs to get to the restaurant, but the restaurant, food and views are well worth it. I would suggest booking a table and having an early dinner (before 19:00) because the parking is limited and it tends to get very busy in the restaurant. The service I have experienced has been incredible and the manager, James, is on top of things. They don't have a liquor license, but they do allow you to bring your own alcoholic drinks/wine/champagne and provide you with wine glasses and champagne flutes. I cannot get enough of Momo Kuro!
