What I like the most about this place is the PORK BUNS, not the ramen. The pork buns are delicious!!! I've been to Momofuku about 4 times now but every time I get the ramen I always wish for something better. I mean, it's good but it's not the best in town (aka Kinton). Maybe all the hype got my expectations way too high, I don't know, but what I do know is that despite the fact that I didn't fall in love with the ramen, I'll probably go back... and I'll probably order ramen. & pork buns!
I will also go back because they have Milkbar right upstairs for those of us that are always craving for something sweet. Sometimes I only go for the Milkbar goodies.
The staff is very chill and young, just like the space itself. They have long tables so you will be sitting next to strangers and if you dare, maybe start a conversation.
The atmosphere is lively and loud but in a good way and you'll have a good time.
I took my dad once (he prefers Chinese comfort food) and he loved it, maybe because he was starving... Nonetheless, if he enjoyed it a lot, you will too!
