So my friends and I ventured out to find this little "hidden" gem (pun intended because guess what, it really was hidden!) and it was hard to find since it's located inside a business building. The name of this restaurant was no where to be found which made it even harder to find. It was like Where's Waldo but in this case, Where's Momofuku?!
The decor of this place was very sleek and modern with an open kitchen located at the back of the restaurant. The front doors were heavy as heck, man! Even a muscle head would have trouble pulling it open...exaggerations aside, they were actually quite heavy. The service here was great and very attentive. There is a second level floor to this establishment as well and it's where their Milk Bar is located but that'll be a separate review.
The menu was very small and had a limited number of items on it. I've heard that this place is popular for their baos but unfortunately we didn't get a chance to try them but we did end up ordering their ramen. We ordered two Momofuku ramens and the Dan Dan mein.
The Dan Dan Mein was ok but the Momofuku ramen was meh.
It was a let down and you can definitely get better tasting ramen at a cheaper price elsewhere (Sansotei and Santouka). It's hyped up and I can clearly see why it is. The decor and the atmosphere of this place makes it seem very upscale and cool but if the food isn't great, then what's the point? I'll have to give this place another try with their baos because their ramen disappointed me.
Overall, hyped up and overpriced for a bowl of ramen that tasted ok. You can definitely get better ramen at a cheaper price elsewhere but I won't be back for their ramen.
