Menu, May 2026

We just fell in love...with MOMO! The outdoor setting was fantastic looking out onto the Cooper River and the Naval memorial park. Only had the hush puppies and oyster sliders, but they were excellent. Had a local craft beer and a prosecco. Highly recommend you stop in. Won't be disappointed. The stars may have been aligned just right. We were coming back from MB around 1pm on a Wednesday heading to the airport but we wanted to get one last hang by the water before leaving. Perfect timing. Table in the shade looking out over the park and river with a cool breeze. Sam, our server, was awesome and everyone had a great spirit. Overall, felt like a hidden gem, hidden in a heavy industrial area. and we were lucky to find it.

I hadn't been to MOMO in a while, but ended up there twice just recently. Once for my own birthday dinner upstairs and another with a couple friends on the patio. After experiencing more of the menu, I have to say that if you still haven't been to MOMO, you're missing out. For appetizers, oysters are always great, but if you don't like shellfish or want something different, try the dill dip or the deviled eggs... both are excellent and great for sharing. When it comes to entree's I've had a handful and the cacio e pepe is probably my favorite, but I had the blue cheese burger with truffle fries the other night and it was so good. And this isn't a place to skip dessert... the chocolate budino and creme brulee were both top notch. The service is always great and especially at my birthday dinner with a small group. Outside on the patio they have fans to keep the bugs away and little table lamps for the perfect nighttime ambiance. Located right on the water, you can't get a better scenic dining spot in North Charleston.

Beautiful ambiance upstairs

Momo is a hidden gem! My husband and I took our 4 daughters for Sunday brunch and it was a great experience- beautiful interior, friendly staff, good menu choice, good service, great view! My only 2 complains are the tea was weak and they didn't have honey mustard for their delicious fries.... And with how good the food was, I know the chef can make a mean homemade honey mustard! We will definitely be back

Stopped into MOMO Riverfront Park and tried a few dishes. The cacio e pepe was spot on: creamy, peppery, and comforting. The Old School Baby Wedge was fresh and flavorful with bacon, tomato, gorgonzola, and green goddess dressing. And the cocktails? Absolutely top tier--balanced, creative, and worth the visit on their own. Between the drinks, the space, and the friendly service, I'll be back to explore more of the menu.

Steak frites

This place was so good. We went in February and had to sit on the patio. It was cold but those heater were fantastic. The food was very good and fast. And our server was so precious. Would definitely go back! And if you're in this area, highly recommended to go!

Wasn't good or bad, not a place I would be running back to. Hostess was friendly and waitress was exceptional...extremely personable. Drinks were really good. I had the Indigo Butterfly and my friend the Amalfi Summer. Ordered the brussel sprout starter. Great portion size. Really delicious. The rest of the menu was a bit of a disappointment. Nothing was a stand out and kind of all over the place. I had the Momo Burger - it was good. Not memorable. Upgraded to the truffle fries and they were... fries. With grated parm... odd. Unexpected. My friend went with the kettle cooked turkey. Said it was also good. As someone who likes to check out the local restaurant scene, I'm not sure I'd return or recommend. It's... fine. Good. Not exceptional for the area.

Turkey sandwich with a berry jam
Ed M.

Great restaurant great view great atmosphere. Great friendly staff they know the menu I had a turkey sandwich with a berry jam It was delicious. I'm a long haul semi truck driver. I'm glad I came here A must try. Stop here to enjoy the food and views. You'll be back

Oysters and hush puppies
Kristen V.

This was an unexpected find while we were exploring the Park Circle area. The service was top notch. Oysters on the half shell and hush puppies for appetizers were superb. I had the bees knees cocktail and my husband and daughter had Bloody Marys. Both were very good. Highly recommend

Buttermilk Brined Fried Chicken Sandwich
Claire F.

What a delightful restaurant! I'm tempted to not advertise it, since it's such a quiet peaceful place. Once it's discovered, that may change. Delicious food, great service, wonderful ambiance...indoor and outdoor seating. Views of the rivers...near the waterfront park. Great sandwiches.

Deviled eggs
Kellie P.

Great restaurant and unique location. This restaurant is located in the Riverfront Park and I believe the only restaurant in the park and honestly nearby. The menu is limited so look before you go. They have a great outdoor seating set up. Even in the fall they provide blankets if it's chilly. I've been here 3 times now and each time I've had a great experience. The price is a little high, so I wouldn't consider this an 'everyday' restaurant. Their carafe of mimosas is great at brunch. Service is professional and prompt. I'd encourage everyone to give MOMO a try.

Dill pickle dip
Caroline M.

I've been here twice now and I loved both experiences! It's a little hidden gem and a great spot to hang out outside. Service has been great both times. Food is great! Everything I've tried has been delicious - except maybe the dill pickle dip. Had a little more cream cheese flavor than pickle, but that's just my opinion :) Will definitely be a go-to when I'm around Charleston.

Hushpuppies
Donna A.

Enjoyed brunch @momoriverfrontpark We enjoyed their hushpuppies, chicken sandwich with truffle fries and shrimp and grits. The hushpuppies were our favorite. The chicken sandwich was crispy and delicious. The shrimp and grits were good. The gravy was different but good. Our first time trying shrimp and grits with pulled pork. It was good. Give this place a try. Make a reservation because it is small. They do offer outdoor seating. Loved this small place with great views, service and vibes. #northcharleston #southcarolina #goodeats #hushpuppies #chickensandwich #trufflefries #shrimpandgrits #pulledpork #brunch #lunch

Momo back patio

My favorite restaurant in Charleston because it has it all! The views, the atmosphere, the history, and of course, the food. You can really tell the owners poured there heart and soul into this establishment because it filters down to the amazing staff. If you are looking to take a date or the family, Momo Riverfront Park is top of the list. Also, they have a 2nd restaurant on a golf course at Crowfield in Goose Creek! Check it out! If I could 6 stars I would.

The moment you step inside, the Victorian-style décor sets the tone. Rich textures, warm lighting, and that unmistakable southern charm create an intimate, welcoming atmosphere that feels purposely hidden. Katie, serving as both bartender and host, elevated the entire experience. She was gracious, professional, and genuinely friendly the kind of hospitality that makes you want to come back before you've even left. Her Knob Creek whiskey sour was exceptional, easily one of the best in Charleston. Perfectly balanced with extra froth, it showed the kind of craft you expect from a top-tier mixology spot. If you're looking for a speakeasy that nails vibe, service, and cocktails, Scotty Doesn't Know should be at the top of your list. A standout gem in Charleston's bar scene.

There's a comprehensive cocktail menu and the French 75ish and the tiramisu martini were both delicious ($18 each). The prices are super comparable with other bars downtown. They have a full bar if you'd like a standard cocktail or any other creation I'm sure they could make it. Our server was great and very attentive. The kitchen stopped serving food at 10pm which I wish we had been told when we came in because I tried to order fries at 10:04 and was told I couldn't. Which I understand I just wish I had known. The place is pretty small and dark and very quiet so the perfect place for a calm nightcap.
