    Really good experience! Wait staff are friendly and attentive. Food was really good. The hushpuppies were the best I've had. Soft on the outside and cooked to perfection on the inside. Oysters, deviled eggs (can get without bacon on the top as well), pickle dip (need more chips cause there's a lot of dip) was all great! The kettle turkey, fries, and cucumber salad is totally get again. Drinks fun and refreshing as well. Keep in mind there may be a bit of a walk cause parking is a little bit away but doable. Beautiful scenery as well.

    Super cute restaurant on the water! Made a reservation here for my 25th birthday and the food was delicious & service was also good!

    Normally I don't yelp about places on a holiday bc they are overwhelmed and not at "perk" performance. Not here. MoMo was fantastic and completely on point. Perfect place to spend Mother's Day. Friendly staff, amazing cocktails and delicious food. Gorgeous view. Come early for a riverfront stroll or burn off the calories after. Ample parking, kid friendly.

    Amazing local beer selection.

    Hosted a work meeting at this nice spot in North Charleston. My group really loves the ambience and decor and the setup of the dining area which really allowed for great group conversation. The menu wasn't very expansive, but everything that we ordered was fantastic. The highlight of this spot was its selection of wine, beer, and cocktails. The view of the water is quite nice as well--which complements the wonderful service we had. The only downside to this place is the time and effort it takes to get there from downtown Charleston. Overall a great experience and will definitely revisit. (Bonus--visit the Smithey Ironworks store next door to see some of the nicest American-made cookware available today.

    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.

    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.

    I've been coming here for years. The food menu doesn't change, because it doesn't need to. Drink menu is seasonal and always hits. Definitely sit outside if you can for the view. Espresso martini is best in Charleston.

    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.

    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.

    Super cute homelike set up. Quick and efficient service. Beautifully decorated and delicious good!

    This area is really nice. On the water with good views and a great family atmosphere. It's located on the old Charleston Naval base grounds. Food was really good. I had the Steak and Frites and it was excellent. Cocktails were overpriced, but everything else made up for it. Service was good and the bathroom was clean.

    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.

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.

I still drank it but it was a little sour than what I was expecting compared to what was described. I believe it was the tequila drink. I would go back to this place and highly recommend this place because the vibes were awesome. This place is great for people looking for a more quiet and sit down place. This place would also be great for date night. Definitely should be a place people should try if they're in Charleston!

    Our favorite wine bar in the area!…read more The service was exceptional as our server was incredibly knowledgeable and helped us choose wines that were a perfect fit for our tastes. They offer an impressive selection of wines both by the glass and by the bottle, making it easy to find something you'll love. While the food menu is small, every item feels thoughtfully curated. The black olives were the perfect snack pairing, and the peaches were absolutely incredible. We loved learning that the peaches are sourced locally and that the mint is grown fresh right behind the restaurant. The space itself is cozy and intimate, creating a warm atmosphere that makes every visit feel special. We can't wait to come back!

It was quaint but very inviting. I'm so sorry if I got your name wrong but I think it was Nicole? She was very friendly and told us about their specials and I love that they print a new menu daily as they rotate a lot of their wines. There was an option to do a "half bottle" which gets you just a touch more than a glass so we thought that was perfect for the two of us for just under $40. We got a nice and chilled Gamay and enjoyed our conversations with her. It's a nice place for a date, girls night or even if you want to sit alone at the bar. The team there makes you feel at home!
