Momo Cafe

Momo Cafe is a great fast-casual spot tucked inside 99 Ranch Supermarket. I tried two dishes during my visit.Popcorn Chicken: This was a standout! It came out fresh, hot, and perfectly crispy. The use of dark meat made the chicken flavorful and moist. My only critique is that a dipping sauce would have elevated the dish further, I wish it was an option.Spicy Braised Beef Noodle Soup: This was enjoyable, with a light broth that wasn't too heavy or overly spicy. The slices of beef were soft and paired well with the noodles. While it faintly reminded me of pho, I found myself wishing for a bit more flavor.Unfortunately, many of their teas were sold out, so I couldn't try any of them this time. Overall, I had a good experience, and I'd recommend giving it a try if you shopping there!

Decided to try one of the food stalls in the 99 Ranch grocery store today (Saturday). They don't officially open until 11:30 am for lunch.You get a 5% discount if you pay cash. Bring cash. Also, get a drink at the drink aisle at 99 Ranch to save money. $0.99 Arizona Ice Tea Half Half Arnold Palmer.Ordered Taiwanese Fried chicken bento box & Taiwanese Spicy Beef Noodle soup. Took about 15 minutes as they make it to order.The bento box comes with rice, veggies (corn, cabbage, broccoli, pickled mustard greens), tofu cake, a small slice of taiwanese sausage and half a tea egg. The fried chicken came in a separate box. Everything was really good. The chicken was hot, crispy and flavorful with spices but dry. They chopped up to breasts into bite sized pieces. Rice was cooked perfectly. Cabbage was delicious. Corn was average. Tofu cake wasn't great. Sausage, egg & pickled greens tasted homemade. 9/10The beef noodle soup would have been better if in a real ceramic bowl with everything mixed in. Instead, broth was separated from noodles and toppings. Not optimal taste and flavor. However, it was still good as a dish. Flavorful slightly spicy broth with tender slices of beef, chunks of carrott and radish (?) and some baby bok choy. Noodles were fair. Maybe a little overcooked. Needed more chewy and bite. 8.5/10Overall, the food was very good and some parts remind me of homecooking. Looking forward to trying more from here and other stalls.

So glad 99 Ranch's food court is generating more business with their new delicious vendors! I'm always on the lookout for Taiwanese food so I'm glad that this place opened up and is closer to us! We decided to try the bento boxes with black pepper chicken and fried pork chop. All of the bento boxes comes with an assortment of side dishes, such as a tea egg and various stir fried veggies. I thought some of the sides were a bit on the saltier side, but that's okay since the box came with rice to even it out. There's an ample amount of protein for each of the bento boxes and it was enough to have a bite of protein for each spoonful of rice! They were running a promo where if you buy an entree, you get a free order of popcorn chicken. The popcorn chicken was delicious and had a bit of a heat to it which we really liked!Service was good, ordering was quick; however, keep in mind that it might take them a bit longer to make the food so if you're in a rush, order your food first, shop around, and then come back to get your order. Other than that, I'd recommend checking this place out and trying their bento boxes and popcorn chicken!

I actually came to 99 Ranch for something else, but ended up here to try out their Taiwanese food. Got their 'combo' pork belly bento with popcorn chicken and a Thai tea, which set me back $29! Unfortunately I don't feel I got a good value at all. The tea was kinda watered down and you only get 3 pieces of pork belly; definitely not a big portion for almost $30. Both the chicken and pork belly were good, but not good enough with other stalls offering better value.

This is a Taiwanese cuisine restaurant inside the 99 Ranch Asian market. They offer authentic Taiwanese street food and fast food combos. I ordered the popcorn chicken, the black pepper chicken bento, and the spicy crawfish bento. The popcorn chicken was average as expected. The black pepper chicken was really good! The black pepper sauce was spicy, but flavorful. It was nothing similar to the black pepper gravy or sauce in any Western cuisine. I stronger recommend you try it, but it is spicy. The crawfish bento was good, and my wife likes it. The lady at the reception was really nice and she was also responsible of making drinks. Since it is inside the food court inside the Asian market, you pretty much need to find a table on your own. The environment is fine. I took one star off because of the portion. It was pretty small for me.

To be honest I came here looking for the other Taiwanese restaurant that had previously took this spot, but I was okay with trying something new. I had a craving for Basil popcorn chicken and was able to get it from here. Unfortunately the prices are a bit high, normalized a bit by buy one, by second 50% off deals but generally speaking the prices were high for the small servings you get. This place is inside the 99 ranch in the food court area and you can order on the kiosk or with a friendly face at the front. While ordering was quick, the food wasn't and it was a little frustrating to have to wait so long for such small portions.

Almost as good as the DC location! I'm happy to see more things opening up at the 99 Ranch food court. Solid Taiwanese food. The black milk tea was perfectly creamy and sweetened. I wished they had the Momo's Potted Plant Milk Tea since it was topped crushed oreos. We got the Braised Pork Bento. The bento box was a great deal since it came with a lot of things like cabbage, corn, egg, tofu, etc. I enjoyed the flavor of the braised pork! Wish they gave more meat in the bento.

The fried pork chop had good flavor, but I didn't care too much for the sides which were ok. The milk tea was pretty sweet and has a decent tea flavor, but I would prefer it to have a stronger tea taste.

I wanted to try something a little different so I tried here. I really liked it. The pork belly had a good flavor and we really liked the chicken. The chicken was a good portion. They're new so I think they could use a little more organization and need more staff for things to run smoother. There was a little bit of a wait, the cashier was honest about it prior so no big deal. Overall had a good experience and would come back.

Fan of the popcorn chicken with five spice and basil but portions are small. Tried the braised pork once and it was almost all fat and no meat. Pricey for the small portions.
