Momofuku Seiōbo - The Star

Food was bland at the start but there was a build up with flavors in the end. The pumpkin dessert and the birthday coconut dessert was the highlight of the whole course. Probably the best desserts I ever had. Found a piece of hair on the lobster but issue was rectified by replacing a new lobster in 10 mins. It was good and pleasant experience.

they made my birthday very special. the tasting menu transported me to another place and the cocktails were singular and intriguing. by the end of the night, i felt like part of their family and this is more than any restaurant of this level has ever done.

Absolutely stunning food. All courses were delicious and added something else to the table. All staff were super friendly, helpful and seemed generally interested in how your experience was going. Would 100% recommend o anyone looking for a fantastic night out with excellent food.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars! The good is absolutely sublime- so much flavour and so well balanced. The real thrill though is seeing the kitchen in action and being served directly by the chef who prepared each dish. A truly amazing experience!

All the staff were very friendly and attentive to our needs. They were merticulous with clearing the plates and refilling the water.

It was lovely to be seated by the kitchen to see the action and guess what they were making. I very much enjoyed the interaction with the chefs that were there at the night.

The most thing that I lived part of the night was the birthday surprise banoffee dessert and a written birthday card by the staff. It really made my boyfriend's night. He was very happy.

I definitely recommend this place, especially for someone very special who's been through very tough times.

We had about 3 different people service us tonight and they were all extremely friendly and bubbly. I think they made our experience even better because they were able to joke and make us feel very comfortable. The first four dishes were amazing but then I got full and was unable to enjoy the rest. My partner Loved it all and he made it until dessert lol. The wine pairing was an enjoyable experience. I loved the curries and Caribbean flavours they had to offer. I would love to come back on an empty stomach with stretchy pants!

A relaxed and entertaining place to enjoy good quality fine dining .

A truly excellent meal, amazing service, and wonderful ambiance. It was great for a special occasion.

Everything about this meal was perfection. From the guy who greeted us at the door, to the delicious food, wonderful wine pairings, perfect portion sizes, and amazing ambience. Plus, a truly inventive menu unlike any I’ve had before. This is a must eat location, if you like tasting menus.

I had an amazing experience at dinner with the crew at Momofuku, all the wait staff were super attentive and genuine and sitting at the bar was interesting as you were able to see your meal being prepared and plated and then the courses were served and explained by the chefs which was a great touch. I have never had Caribbean inspired food before and none of the dishes disappointed, they were all singularly amazing and the drink pairing was so worth it! Loved every bite!

Very Nice cooking very surprising the pairing us very interesting too

Incredible experience, right from the minute we were greeted at the door! We had the tasting menu and it was full of delicious complex flavours.

The chefs explained the country origin and influence of each dish, and were very friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommend the tasting menu at Momofuku Seiōbo!

We also enjoyed a few of the cocktails from the drink menu - strong and delicious!

Overall, the staff and chefs make you feel very welcomed and relaxed (not like other ‘traditional fine dining’ restaurants).

10/10 - food, experience and hospitality!!

I'm vegetarian and unfortunately for the price paid and for the ingredients used, it doesn't match my expectations. On the same table, other guests had caviar and a marron but on my dishes, there were just a plain pumpkin and eggplant. I'd expect I'd have truffles or other high quality alike ingredients. Also, for a three hatted restaurant I'd expect excellent ambiance and well balanced music/toileting facilities. The music was way too loud as if you were in a bar rather than in a hatted restaurant. If you gotta go to the toilet you have to pass through their central part of the kitchen which is a bit weird, let alone there is only one toilet. Overall the food was good.

Amazing customer service, Amazing food.
Strongly recommend

What a wonderful experience. It was our anniversary and Paul the Executive chef and his staff made the night and experience very special. The food, service and atmosphere were very special. An excellent menu with great matching wines, even a personalized anniversary card. WOW! Thank you Paul and team.

Wonderful evening, great service and food and wine. Did the tasting menu with matching drinks, a lovely treat.

Another memorable visit to Momofuku, Casual and classy with food from the Gods! Wine list and tastes are exquisite and we will definitely return.

An absolute must on the Sydney Food Circuit. Quality food and an overall fantastic experience. Highly recommend.

Incredible food and even more incredible service. High-end food in a fun, relaxed and welcoming environment.

Amazing restaurant - could not fault it! From the wait service right through to the food and extensive wine list. Well worth the visit.

Just AMAZING! Couldn’t fault a thing!

Es war wundervoll. Wir hatten einen perfekten Abend mit erstklassigem Service.
Die Toilettensituation könnte besser sein.

Fabulous meal and great service , only negative was loud mouth American at the end of the bar who thought he was funny

Great service great food! We dined at momofuku to celebrate my partners birthday and she loved it. Only thing I would have preferred is the choice of music. It was not as intimate as I had imagined but the casual vibe was still a unique experience

Brilliant. Under promises at the start and over delivers.

Truly incredible.

The culinary creations coming from this exceptionally talented kitchen is nothing short of wizardry!

We had breathtaking courses of crayfish, ceviche, duck and dessert that were as amazing to taste as they were to look at.

Having eaten at seven of Melbourne’s best fine dining restaurants, Momofuku completely blew us away and reminded us why we come back for our birthday for what is now the fourth year in a row.

Unpredictable and exciting, we left completely full and in awe of the expert attention to detail including the wait staff. Floor room management were very helpful and efficient and contributed to an unforgettable evening.

My only disappointment with this restaurant is only having one birthday a year.

Truly Sydney’s best restaurant.

Best food, service, experience we’ve ever had in a restaurant. We did the 10 course tasting menu and it was incredible, we also paired with wine which was delicious. We loved sitting at the kitchen and seeing the food preparation, fascinating! Well worth the money we spent. We were really well looked after. Can’t fault it. We’ll be telling all our friends to visit!!

Very impressive restaurant with amazing chefs and exciting staff
The food was delicious and very interesting
Staff were the best I have ever seen. The chefs taking the time to explain the dishes in a unique way and the other staff being very friendly, funny and clearly knowing the dishes and wines. Beautiful atmosphere and great team work in the kitchen. The flow and timing of the degustation was on point. I seriously cannot wait to come back.

The food and service were excellent. We had the Tasting Menu and sat at the counter. It was a memorable experience and one I would recommend if you enjoy seeing how your food is prepared. The sommelier Max was very professional/knowledgeable and we appreciated his input to our wine selection. Full marks to all the staff for their approach to service. (Friendly and unobtrusive) We really liked the way in which each dish was presented and explained to us by a different member of the kitchen team. Great attention to the presentation and the quality of the dishes. Will definitely be back to try out the other menus offered at the restaurant.

We had a fabulous experience. Excellent sitting at the bar watching the smooth running of the kitchen and comaraderie of the staff! Thank you

For fine dining, the place had a nice relaxed feel. We were seated at the kitchen bar and enjoyed watching the preparation and care on each dish. The 4 course lunch menu was very tasty. We loved the main of duck with sides - the grilled asparagus was a highlight - delicious. The coconut, pineapple, tamarind dessert was a very refreshing way to top off the meal. The gesture from the restaurant for our anniversary was unexpected and much appreciated. Proximity to an arguing couple was the only thing that affected the experience. Would definitely come back to try the 10 course dinner.

Had a very enjoyable lunch for my husbands birthday! Great service and food! Highly recommend!

Absolutely fantastic. The staff had such a beautiful enthusiasm for their food and service, with a great sense of humour. Such a balance of professionalism and friendly banter. Really knowledgeable staff, great ambience, and the food was incredible.

Exciting and different food. The courses had really interedting flavours and such a variety of textures. The juice pairings were also really beautiful.

Great food, great ambient, friendly staff. Great way to spend our anniversary lunch! Thank you for everything

Brilliant as always.

Momofuku Seiobo is more a Caribbean inspired restaurant and whilst the menu attempts it was anything but inspiring. Despite having confirmed my allergies multiple times the staff managed to serve me my allergies on 3 occasions which was extremely disappointing. The meal felt disjointed and did not have a common theme throughout. Thanks for trying but I’ll not be back

We absolutely loved Momofuku Seiōbo, which had some of the best dishes we've ever tasted in a fine dining experience - Caribbean-inspired flavours using Australian produce. We had the 10 course tasting menu, and with no written menu provided at the start, each dish was a surprise. They were brought out
by different cooks each time and explained in loving detail.

Our particular favourites were the sweet potato pudding in the banana leaf sauce, and the pumpkin-pie desert (which sounds much more simple than the complexity of its taste actually grants). The dishes are served with a lot of beauty and detail, but in quite small bowls or plates compared to what I have seen in other fine dining restaurants. I actually came to appreciate both the visual humility of this, and also the fact that it made us lean in and pick up our food more, to see and smell.

The staff were great, and we were treated with exceptional service. The one thing I would comment on is that, as it was an energetic atmosphere with a lot of buzzing and talking, it was hard to hear the descriptions of the food given by the cooks serving us the dish. With no visual aid/menu, we lost a lot of the detail being presented to us.

The fact that we saw Clare Smyth from Core (UK) at the other end of the bench from us (confirmed to be her by the Sommelier), just sealed the experience for us. Overall this has to be one of my favourite places to eat as a fine-dining experience.

Always an wonderful experience. Amazing food, knowledgable & approachable staff, and perfect beverage pairings.

This is one of our favourite locations to visit. More than the food and drinks, which are excellent although some dishes were a touch too salty, it is the exceptional and friendly service that makes this one of my favourite Sydney restaurants.
