I’ve been to Momo & O a couple of times, (both sitting down and take aways) and I enjoyed experience. The food is hearty and homey and bursting with flavour. If you’re in the mood for delicious, crunchy Korean fried chicken wings, this is definitely the place for you! The salmon and jasmine rice pokè bowl and the ramen are delicious, filling meals. I do think they’re more take-away driven due to the lack of parking which leaves the restaurant empty more times than it being busy when you would expect it to be. The food is good and so is the service. I will continue to support and recommend this restaurant to anyone and everyone.
