MOMO riverfront park

"My dad and I decided to come here for lunch on a Saturday, and despite being walk-ins, we were able to get an outdoor table immediately. We were in the sun which provided nice warmth, but if we were cold there were heaters and blankets available. The food and service were great. I got the momo burger (pictured) and my dad got the blue cheese burger. It was generous portions for a reasonable price. Since we sat outside, we had a great view of riverfront park as well. I’d recommend eating here and walking around the old naval base to anyone!"

"My friend brought me to this restaurant for lunch a few weeks ago. I initially had a positive impression because our server was friendly, the restaurant had a great vibe, and the food we ordered was quite good. However, as I was almost finished with 4/5 of my burger, I discovered a short brown hair stuck in the patty. I promptly called our server, and she fetched the manager. After a short wait, the manager arrived, and we showed him the hair in the food. He said he would speak to the person in the kitchen (possibly the chef). Unfortunately, due to his low volume and the background noise, it was challenging to hear the details, but my friend who sat closer to him assured me later that he didn't apologize for what happened. After the manager left, we waited for over 10 minutes, but neither he nor the chef returned. Surprisingly, we received the full-priced check from our server, and the manager did not reappear. Despite sensing that they might not address the issue or apologize, we just paid the requested amount and even left a generous tip for our server. It wasn't her fault, and her service was commendable. While I understand that people can make mistakes, I am not sure about giving them a second chance(visit), especially considering their attitude during this incident. Additionally, the owner's blunt responses to other 1 or 2-star Google reviews make me hesitant. Charleston offers numerous local, fine restaurants that are worth trying, anyway."

"Great food and service. Delicious appetizers - great hush puppies, pimento cheese and house made pickles, Brussels, and deviled eggs. Huge salads with perfect toppings and the steak was tender and cooked perfectly. The service was on point. We will be back."

"A work friend recommended this spot for dinner with our great business friends in from KY and it surely did not disappoint. The location on the Cooper River waterfront park is great although at night a bit tricky to find due to all the historic Oak tree canopy that lines these historic old Navy base housing areas. I'm always looking for a spot with great food and a craft cocktail menu. We arrived about 30 min early for our reservation to make sure we had time to have a drink at their small but cozy bar. The bartender was super fun and accommodating to make sure we got exactly what we wanted. I can be a bit of a pain (cocktail snob) on ingredients and how they are served. But Rickey was an expert and with a great sense of humor clearly showed he was a master. He'd prepared his own set of bitters and let us try a few before making some amazing drinks for us to try. We all love oysters and had a dozen each of their 3 varieties for the night and they all were amazing. Several of us had the Steak Frites, shrimp & Grits and a burger and everyone loved them. The staff was very gracious and accommodating for our group. The service was absolutely outstanding which is a rarity these days. If you dine here be sure to take some time to walk down to the river's edge on the nice walkway right behind the restaurant to enjoy the views before/after dinner. I can't wait to go back to Moma."

"Delicious food, great service, beautiful surroundings! We went for brunch with a reservation. We were seated right away and the server was very friendly and attentive. The food was delicious and a vast selection for all tastes! The restaurant itself is beautiful with an upscale and comfortable ambiance. (but casual dress is ok!) We ate indoors, but there is an open patio and a shaded patio with lots of seating. Very dog friendly as well! Stunning riverfront location, and overall a perfect relaxing brunch Sunday. We’ll definitely be back!"
