    Fantastic ambiance. It was Valentine’s Day so it was a little crowded and a little noisy from the band but overall an outstanding place for a romantic evening.

    My partner and I decided to do our Valentine’s day date a week early since I will be out of town for a convention. The place was quiet, not too busy and was decorated with beautiful wall art. The waiters were very friendly and attentive as well. We were both astounded by how quick our meals were served and how perfect they were as well! The incredible flavors from our dishes paired alongside their house bread made for an excellent evening meal. I have booked us again for our anniversary in a few months and I greatly look forward to returning to Momo’s!
