Our experience at Momofuku Noodle Bar was far from stellar. The customer service was awful and left a lingering bad taste in our mouths (ranging from a snappy response from the waitress when asked for a recommendation to said waitress mentioning gratuity while we were paying....completely tacky). The Momofuku ramen was not bad, but nothing to write home about. Better tasting ramen can be found at Ajisen or Santouka. The portion sizes were teeny tiny for $14; as my brother in law mentioned, he could have had 2 bowls of better tasting ramen elsewhere for that price. $60 later, we were still hungry and drove to the closest All Star Wings. For real.
I don't think it is any secret that the Momofuku establishments are a little pretentious (here and in NYC) and not where you go if you're looking for an authentic Asian culinary experience. However, worth a try if you're curious about the hype, but I hope you get a decent server!
