From my limited knowledge with hand rolls I want to say that they were pretty good. I feel that these were prepared well and that the ingredients felt fresh

Salmon roll ,  loved it !!
Rod R.

What can I say that I haven't said already. Food consistency is always the best in town . Quality you can taste on any item of the menu. Love the ambiance . Clean and welcoming.

On menu item, Hamachi Kama $18

The food is always amazing here. The fish is like no where else I've ever eaten except maybe Nobu in Vegas. Everything we order here we enjoy. (Especially compared with AYCE sushi ) We come so often my husband enjoys socializing with everyone that works here. It's usually very intimate and quiet inside- Nice for dates and conversations

Edamame

Food 5/5 My first impression was that the fish was high quality, I was happy to see that the rolls didn't include imitation crab. The sushi was delicious and practically melted in my mouth. The rolls are a bit on the smaller side; usually one roll fills me up, but here I had to order two. I also really enjoyed the miso soup. The edamame was good, though a little too salty for my liking. Customer Service 5/5 Customer service was excellent! Our waitress was super friendly and welcoming, and I loved that she gave great recommendations. She really knew the menu, which is always a plus and so helpful when ordering, especially at a new spot. Loved, loved, loved it! Ambience 5/5 I was shopping at the thrift store next door and never expected the inside of this place to be so nice. It's a hidden little gem, the interior is beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully put together! Cleanliness 5/5 Super clean during my visit ! Wait Time 5/5 We were seated immediately, and since it wasn't busy at first, our food arrived quickly. Once it got a bit busier, the wait was longer, but still completely reasonable. Cost 4/5 It was a bit on the pricey side for the portion size, but considering the quality and flavor, it was understandable. Just keep in mind that rolls are around $20 each. Appetizers, like the spicy edamame, are $10, the miso soup was $4, and extras are listed on the back of the menu for an additional charge.

Giving Momo only 5-stars is not enough! Fantastic dinner: the food is exquisite, the atmosphere serene and service is top notch. Large parking in front of the restaurant, easy access. From the moment we were greeted and guided to our table, we felt that we were going to have an amazing meal. Water and drinks were brought quickly and server guided us through the menu. We chose the edamame as appetizer and 4 rolls (Lemon - Lobster - Salmon and Shrimp) - these were the best rolls we had in a very very long time. Prices are reasonable and portions abundant! So if you're craving sushi, Momo should become your only to-go spot

This has quickly become my favorite sushi spot in the IE. The staff is always friendly. The food wow the food. Fish is so fresh and tasty. We appreciate the chefs always serving such delicious food

Veggie tempura
Melissa M.

Wow, did not expect this when I first saw the exterior of the venue but again, don't judge a book by its cover. The restaurant is located in an older lot, next to another older Asian restaurant. But when you walk in, it's beautiful. Service is also good. Upon entering all give you a warm Japanese greeting. We ordered the muscles, cucumber salad, veggie tempura, spicy tuna over crispy rice, and teriyaki chicken bento box. The presentation for all of the food we ordered was beautiful and neat. All were good but the muscles and the cucumber salad were my favs. Omg! The muscles! I loved the flavor. I loved how they delicately cut the muscles so that you get a piece of muscle in every bite. I know cucumber salad sounds simple...but they cut the cucumbers nice and thin with a mandolin and the vinaigrette was just light and fresh! It was so good! Only downside is the price. It's pretty pricey...$8 for the cucumber salad and $29 for the bento box and this was lunch. But all the food was good at least! It would be different if it did not taste good. Will be back again!

First timer here! I had a wonderful experience! Omakase was really good! The price point is average for quality sushi. Omakase is a dining style where you trust your chef to choose the freshest ingredients and curate your dining experience. The chef didn't let us down! We usually bring a bottle of wine with us but the corkage fee was $25 so we opted to just get a bottle of their Sauvignon blanc. I forgot the name but it was in the $35-$40 range and I enjoyed it! Maybe a little too much as I was buzzed pretty quickly lol. The staff was nice and welcoming. I always recommend sitting at the bar. I love being able to chat with the chef and observe how he cuts fish and makes nigiri. The inside of the restaurant is clean and modern with sleek lines and simple yet elevated features. The ambiance was really nice. The appetizer plate was a great start. There were so many things on the plate and I must say my favorite was the cute little deep fried crab! It looked a little intimidating at first but it was love at first crunch. The fish was fresh. The sushi rice was made perfectly. The servings were nice. The chef even asked us if we were still hungry and he'd make us a hand roll. Usually I would want to try but I was stuffed! I finished the meal with matcha mochi ice cream. Yum! Can't wait to visit again!

Rainbow roll, fresh ingredients
Cho C.

Was in the area for Castlepark, and family was craving sushi. Out of the several options in the area, we found this location and it didn't disappoint. I wouldn't expect quality and tasty sushi out in Riverside, but this place exceeded my expectations. Each roll was made with attention to detail, good portions and fresh ingredients. Staff were friendly, and they mentioned whether we had made reservations. But we did not, and they were still able to get our party of 9 in with no problem. There is a separate side room good for larger parties as well as a huge group if needed. Decor is modern, and clean. Our server was wonderful, she was friendly, good at explaining the dishes, and was prompt with refilling our drinks or letting us know it's their last call. Cost is roughly $20+ for each roll, and they also offer an Omakase option which is pretty cool to see. This place is above the standard sushi places I've visited before, as each dish stood out and tasty.

Sushi lovers must try! This spot is the real deal. Skip the cheap, go to sushi spots around town and make Momo your next destination for all things sushi. Fresh. Fresh. Fresh. Loved everything we tried. And the service was great. Absolutely best sushi experience in Riverside.

I came here with my hubby around 8 PM on a Saturday night and it was fairly quiet. The atmosphere was pretty chill and you could see the sushi chefs making the food behind the counter which we appreciated. Even though it didn't close till much later, they were more focused on prepping for the next day, then providing good service. For example, we were never given any soy sauce, one of the rolls that we were excited for did not come with the sauce and the server mentioned something along the line of it no longer coming with it and that they were gonna phase out the menu, but he told us after we had ordered. Lastly, we were not offered refills on our water or soda as he was more focused on the football game on the screen. Onto the food we had the edamame with garlic and truffle oil. It was addictively good because of the saltines and the garlic flavor was very present, but what I didn't notice as much was the truffle. I would not let that deter you from ordering it as it was still very delicious and we finished the whole plate. They were out of the oysters when we came in, which was pretty unfortunate but we did end up getting the Shishito peppers as another side. In my opinion they needed a little bit of acidity and salt, but otherwise they were OK. The miso soup tasted fresh but it was lacking toppings. I got one little piece of tofu. The two rolls that we had were pretty fresh and that was the most enjoyable part of the meal we had the lemon roll and the Momo special. Our favorite of the two was the lemon roll. It was refreshing and the tuna melted in your mouth. The momo special was okay and this was the roll that was missing the sauce. The soju bottle did come in a cute little barrel bucket but unfortunately, even that wasn't cute enough to save the overall meal.

An Unforgettable Omakase Experience with Chef Garu Hands down one of the best sushi omakase experiences I've ever had. Chef Garu is truly a master of his craft. Every course was thoughtfully prepared, impeccably fresh, and beautifully presented. You can immediately feel the passion and precision behind each bite. Chef Garu takes the time to explain the fish, the sourcing, and the technique, which makes the experience feel intimate and special rather than rushed. The balance of flavors, textures, and temperature was flawless--each piece melted in your mouth and somehow outdid the last. This isn't just a meal; it's an experience. From the warm hospitality to the attention to detail, everything was elevated. If you're a true sushi lover or looking for a memorable omakase, Chef Garu is an absolute must. Worth every penny, and I can't wait to return

I forgot to take pictures but the meal was really yummy! I like that they don't use imitation crab Service was great! And the restaurant had a nice ambiance. I would go back again to try more of their food!

We went on a Saturday at 6pm without joining the waitlist as yelp said we didn't need to. Our experience vs recent yelp reviews was overall pretty damn positive. The only thing that is true that every other review mentions is yes they add auto gratuity so when you get your check the option is there to still add a tip which if you don't pay attention can lead to you giving a 25%+ tip without realizing it. The service we had was fast, I still don't know who our server was because about 6 different people kept asking us if we needed anything. Our tablet worked fine and we were able to order everything from it without having it malfunctioning or not working as some others have stated. One odd thing to mention is the soda cup is about 2x as big as the water cup. The sushi itself tasted good, however my girlfriend and I try to get our moneys worth so we normally only pick nigiri and the standard apps, and avoid any kind of rolls. Our take is on the carpaccio, seared salmon, tuna, and escolar, and fresh water eel. All the nigiri we had weren't "fishy" or tasted not fresh or whatever some of the other reviews mentioned but again we didn't have any of the items other people have complained about. So if you're looking for an AYCE sushi place and are tryna get your moneys worth I'd say it's a good place to go.

I'm currently pregnant and before I enjoyed going out for sushi at our normal location south of the 210. However, I prefer to stay as local as possible nowadays and try to find places that I can enjoy. I am obsessed with the "Golden California" rolls, and if you don't know what that is, it is a California roll that is fried in tempura batter. I can't always find a place with that style roll and when we happened upon this place our very first time, I saw that they offered the roll. Well, let's fast forward to present, and our order is usually always the same. Husband and I share a Golden California roll, a ramen we feel like having spicy, some mixed tempura with shrimp and then he will choose a roll that's more on the raw fish side. I actually changed it up our last visit l because I did not realize they had a Spicy Golden California, and that roll was very good. I'd definitely get that one again when we are on a sushi run. My sister and my nephew are also sushi people, and they have never been to this spot. I took some sushi to go, and they actually enjoyed it. They too are used to the other spot we frequent, but this is perfect for just my husband and I as we do t consume too much to warrant a visit to the spot we usually go to. If you're in the area, looking for a sushi spot, I'd recommend it. I know they offer other items, we just haven't decided to try anything other than our usual mix.

Very disappointing experience today…read more This was actually our second chance for this restaurant. We used to enjoy the food, but previous visits were plagued by incorrect orders because staff repeatedly chose not to write anything down. Today, my husband found a hair fried into the batter of his popcorn lobster roll. It was wrapped around the piece of "lobster," making it clear the hair was there during preparation--not something that fell onto the food afterward. It also raises concerns about basic food safety practices, including whether proper hair restraints were being used by whoever prepared the meal. He quietly brought it to the staff's attention, and they simply took the plate away. No apology. No follow-up. To make matters worse, we were still charged for the contaminated roll. We mentioned it again when paying and, again, received no apology and no offer to remove the charge. Mistakes can happen. What shouldn't happen is dismissing a legitimate food safety concern and charging customers for contaminated food without so much as an apology.
