Momo Restaurant

Momo Restaurant at 47 Patrick Street is a culinary gem in Waterford, operated by the dynamic duo Kamila Bystrzonowska and her husband Harry O’Neill. With a passion for fresh, locally-sourced ingredients and sustainable practices, this pair has crafted an eating experience that marries global flavors with Irish authenticity. Their approach emphasizes ‘slow food’ principles, which means everything is prepared with care, from scratch, and with an eye towards environmental consciousness. This ethos has garnered them several accolades, including the ‘Best Restaurant in Munster’ award in 2018.

The restaurant is celebrated for its eclectic menu, featuring standout dishes like the Moroccan Lamb Tagine and the Vegetarian Buddha Bowl, which highlight their dedication to catering to diverse palates. The interior ambiance is equally inviting, blending rustic charm with modern elegance, featuring handmade furniture and local artwork that create a cozy yet sophisticated setting. Kamila and Harry’s commitment to quality is evident in their use of a Josper grill, a distinctive piece of equipment that infuses dishes with a unique smoky flavor, setting Momo apart from other dining establishments.

Open from Tuesday to Saturday, 12:00 PM to 9:00 PM, Momo Restaurant offers a mid-range dining experience with the option for online reservations through their website. While street parking is available, the venue is also easily accessible by public transport, making it convenient for both locals and visitors. The restaurant prides itself on accommodating all guests, with facilities that are wheelchair accessible, ensuring a welcoming environment for everyone.

The multi-component dishes are perfectly balanced with all the different flavors..Just imagine bacon wrapped chicken surrounded by squash risotto and mushrooms, add toasted cheese and pumpkin seeds..the result is a memorable eating experience.So much flavor in a dish that looks and tastes perfect. Or maybe monkfish..I love eating monkfish here, no matter how it is prepared..this time it was with prawns, delicious pasta and other flavors from the sea.. The steak was delicious as always too..Every time they show us that they are definitely the best restaurant in Waterford ... .

Fantastic place. Menu is varied and interesting. I had the beef short rib and it was just perfection. Fell apart on the fork and all the accompaniments were delicious. Had the chocolate fondant for desert and it was worth the 10 minute wait. Very indulgent but nicely sized so as not to overdo it. The Nero d'Avola I had alongside was also top notch. Literally couldn't fault it. We were there with the kids and they were chuffed with it all too - particularly the wide selection of ice-cream. All-in-all a fantastic restaurant.

Had a great lunch here. Tried the Buddha Bowl and very happy with my choice. One of the best vegan meals i had here in Ireland! Every ingredient was cooked to perfection and added something to the dish. It was so tasty! Service was good and efficient and very reasonably priced. I'll be back for sure!

Had a really lovely meal here last night. We were celebrating our wedding anniversary, babysitter had to cancel last minute so we brought our toddler daughter with us. Everyone in the restaurant gives a warm welcome. This place is extremely family friendly, we were seated at a great table with a highchair, not hidden away as can happen when you have a smallie. The menus are eclectic and have great options for all, one of the best kids menus I've seen. Vibrant, fresh and local produce!! My wife and I had fish dishes and our daughter had the beef short rib, the food was so so good. Already looking forward to a return visit.
