Lunch: Menu not very detailed, and unless you speak Korean, dont bother asking questions. Salad was VERY basic. All ice burg lettuce. Dressing not bad. Miso soup=Not good. Supposed to be light, delicate. Was the opposite Momo roll was terrible. Greasy, goopy, gross. Crunchy roll was NOT what youd get anywhere else. Shrimp tempura and avocado inside, Masago, spicy mayo, sesame seeds, and a pile of greasy tempura bits on top. Not terrible, just not my thing. And since there was no description in the menu, nor decent clarification from my server, I had no idea. The sushi. ..lets just say, very, very basic. The rice was too vinegar-y, the fish not very flavorful, the cuts not at all delicate. Seriously, this is heb quality, all around. I wont be back. (I had to give it two stars, just because the staff was very friendly. )

You can find this small Korean restaurant tucked away in the corner of a shopping center. The food is pretty standard with the rest of Korean restaurants in town, but their quality is slightly lower than the rest so I cant say that their pricing is right. I tried this place out recently and found a couple of strands of hair in my dishes. That usually doesnt bother me as most, but for the price that Im paying and for the portion size they offer, it was a little too much to take. Hopefully they can rectify these issues, but until then, Ill frequent one of the many other Korean restaurants in North Austin.

I really love sushi. I loved the fish here. Just really, really delicious really, really fresh fish. I also love monotonous with take and most places over cook it, but not Momo Korean Cuisine & Sushi. People who think they dont like octopus often dislike the very chewy texture, but if its done well, its not rubbery. Just satin. One other thing, they didnt have fresh wasabi the night I was there, but the waitress said to ask for it b/c frequently they do have it.

Terrible experience, just went here for lunch and asked for chicken fried with no onions and told them I was on my lunch hour for work. The place was empty and still brought the food out late. The fried rice rice came out with onions and no chicken at all. The server had no idea what was going on and the chef was yelling in the kitchen. This is not to mention the several parts of my Co workers order they forgot to bring him. I will never come to this place again.

The food was really good and unique. A lot of unique fusion dishes as well as traditional Korean ones (e.g. Bi Bim Bap). Only problem was the service was pretty slow. We waited probably 15 minutes for our lunch dishes and there were only two other people in the restaurant. It was during off-hours (~2:30pm) and it looked like there was only one person working there. All in all worth the trip though. I plan on returning. :)

Im only giving this place 1 star because I cant give it a zero. Weve been here 3 times and still have not eaten the food because they "took it off the menu" or "dont have the rice cooked yet"? This was our favorite spot when it was Momos and I had really high hopes for the change but they cant seem to get it together. Also, the hours listed are merely suggestions. Dont actually expect them to be open at these times.

This place is really good. I loved the Galbi and the small homey feeling. The Kimchi is prepared fresh and the side dishes are really good. They consisted of potatoes, broccoli, bean sprout, Kimchi, and cucumber Kimchi. They play Korean music inside. One thing i do wish though was that the portion size was a little bigger, but still it was so good i think i accidentally bit my lip twice haha.

The rolls are a bit lackluster, but the lunch deals are a great value. I always go for the tempura shrimp bento box. You get two large shrimp and tons of tempura veggies, as well as four slices of California roll and four slices of the Momo roll (not bad, but not great), a scoop of white rice, some broccoli, and of course miso soup and salad. So, really, its not a bad deal at lunchtime.

New reopening of momos with a fusion vibe, so far with average execution. The Korean wings with soy garlic were pretty dry and flavorless, the poke and bibim bowls felt small and mostly filler. Good flavor on the bibim bowl with galbi, but getting nickel and dimed both for the galbi and fried egg felt pretty bad. Hoping the place improves so we can find our go to Korean spot in Austin.

Ive had Korean food in several states and found this to be just as good as it gets. The young man at the door went out of his way to make sure everything was just the way we wanted it and I would go back in a heartbeat! As we all know food is subjective, but at least try it once and see what YOU think.

Super friendly staff and quick service. Combination Japanese and Korean food. I really enjoyed their variation of okonomiyaki. The dolsit bibimbap is really good too. My friends also enjoyed their bulgolgi and I was also able to order a couple things not on the menu. Definitely give this place a try!

A great change of pace dining experience if you live in the area. A perfect remedy for that hungry-but-nothing-sounds-good funk. I had the Korean Arancini, K-Town Tacos and the Bibim Bowl. All three were good. The entree portion sizes were small but the price seemed fair.

Poke bowl (tuna) tasted really good, but it was definitely a little small and didnt have as much fish as one might expect (and Im a very small person).

The food was good but I prefer chilantro for the bowls and fries. Wings were pricey at 1.25 each. I wont be back.

Food is good, but the portions are a bit small, and it takes a long time for the food to come out.
