The menu has smoked salmon with red onions, capers, and eggs on toast; an egg bun with American cheese and maple bacon; and cornmeal waffles with cream and blueberries. Read more

From Ryan Sutton's 2 star review: "The trout roe is a BUY at $16. A generous heap of the firm, oily eggs sits atop potato blini. They pop in the mouth like bubble wrap." Read more

Try the recently launched dim sum-style brunch menu. With items like sour cream biscuits, pork buns, cod fritters, and jerk chicken wings from carts that are wheeled through dining room. Read more

The beef short rib for two was incredible. Tender and juicy the meat just fell off the bone. Sit at the bar if you're a couple and enjoy some amazing cocktails like their take on a Penicillin.

This is what we ordered and it was amazing! Wagyu, Steamed Bun Lobster, Foie Gras (make sure to eat each bite with the Malt and Brioche), black bass and dessert-White chocolate popcorn, Carmel, salt!

go really hungry and get the pork ribs (so salty!), fried cauliflower (whoa! i am a fan of cauliflower once again) and the corn (to balance the two sides). you'll probably take some of it home

The food is so phenomenal. The menu changes from time to time; try as many dishes as you can. Remember to order the cereal milk soft serve. Highly recommended even if service is patchy.

Unique and inventive twist on a French Vietnamese menu! The Menu changes daily, but my favorites were the Razor Clam Ceviche, Lobster & Lemongrass Butter and Trout Roe with Potato Pancakes.

Their delicious pork buns are available to go everyday till 10pm. $10 for 2, makes for a light, inexpensive snack/meal in an otherwise pricey midtown. Tip: Go sit by the fountains around 6th ave.

I love ma peche - a good break from the other neighborhood options. A bit more fun, inventive food. Pork buns and corn side both great. Good for even a work lunch.
Erica ChoiAugust 8, 2014
Dimsum style right now and everything's pretty scrumptious. Specials/faves are buttered corn, fried chicken, lobster rice, soft shell crab buns, trout buns, cod fritters!
MERZNovember 18, 2014
MUST HAVE the trout buns, jerk chicken wings, and avocado dip. Fritters - just OK. Great service, superb wait staff. Hidden gem !!

So um, don't get kappo. Don't enjoy Chef Paul, Eumi, and Caitlin's company. And don't enjoy the 10 course mystery menu with wine pairing. Oh and don't buy cookies from the milk bar upstairs.
Lauren MelcherDecember 19, 2015
Great for a quick and fun business lunch, very helpful staff if your party has food allergies! Delicious pork ribs, fried chicken and beet salad :)

2015-2016 Carnegie Hall Concert Season, one complimentary glass of wine selected by Momofuku beverage director with purchase of large plate (dish meant to share) from á la carte menu for members.
Fati HussainJune 23, 2015
The chicken & rice meal here is worth it, you have to order it 48 hrs in advance and have a party of 4 to order. Personally, I'd go with a larger group. This meal can easily feed 8

David Chang does it again. Came for a weekday lunch, particularly enjoyed the seared scallops; spicy pork rice cakes were tasty and filling. Trout buns were good, but didn't beat out the pork buns.
From The World BlogOctober 23, 2012
The duck with orange and pistachios, delicious. ICarrot with coconut, curry and chili. But the most impressive thing is beef shank. Enormous. Order in advance and invite your entourage.
Tanay ModiDecember 12, 2015
The pork buns are absolutely phenomenal, as are the oysters. Unfortunately the beet salad is average like the shrimp cocktail. I was very disappointed by the salt and pepper shrimp, and the crab claw
Lane RettigNovember 3, 2015
Wow. I liked everything here. The habanero chicken and waffles was sublime. Shrimp in the shrimp and grits was juicy and succulent

Try the lemongrass caramel ribs here, which Adam Platt calls “the finest ribs (sticky, charred, infused with lemongrass and caramel) ever to be served in the vicinity of 56th Street and Fifth Avenue." Read more
Haneen 💍August 25, 2016
Great food, consider it as a comfort food place, starting with starters and ending with desserts from momofoku bar
Rachel WangNovember 15, 2014
Been here 5+ times
Lunchtime dim sum is worth the trip - doesn't get too crowded surprisingly. Softshell crab buns, lobster fried rice, rice cakes yum!

Grab a drink. All the cocktails are great and they have a small but well rounded selection of wines and beer at the bar. Trust me, I drink here...alot!
Omer ZachNovember 6, 2014
Entrees are huge. One of those and 2–3 appetizers or dim sum plates is plenty. Lobster rice is definitely amazing.
Byron WilkesDecember 28, 2015
Pork buns were impeccable, but habanero chicken was not very inspired (Southerner speaking). Bloody Mary quite, quite savory: I highly recommend.
Village VoiceAugust 31, 2010
Try the classic bistro salad frisée aux lardons. Break the egg so that the lemon yellow yolk flows out, and mix it all together into a smoky, sticky mess. It's probably the best salad of the year.
Berta CMarch 2, 2016
Great soft pork belly buns and cereal milk icecream from Momofuku milk bar
Village VoiceAugust 15, 2014
One of the best dishes is frisée with a poached egg, pork jowl lardons, and tomatoey tripe stew. Read more
S PMay 8, 2015
Great little tapas dishes, pork belly and soft shell crab buns, lobster rice... Avoid the salty and heavy general Changs' chicken.
Aly OradyDecember 28, 2014
The lobster fried rice and the veggies with rice cakes were my favorite two dishes. The fish was also pretty awesome.
Tiffany LangstonFebruary 20, 2015
Brunch is fabulous, but everything is served a la carte, dim sum style. So, if you don't pay attention, there could be some sticker shock when the bill comes
Maya ShanmugamJune 29, 2015
Go for lunch- a couple passed plates and a large plate are good for two. I recommend the lobster rice + pork buns
Johanna FuentesJune 23, 2010

You can't go wrong with almost everything on this menu... Starters: pork ribs are incredible. Of the two pick the shrimp spring roll over pork (the sauce is delectable). Try the fried cauliflower.
Shindy CApril 3, 2016
Place has gone a bit downhill over the years, now serves as a tourist destination, and pork buns are off-menu (also the last decent thing on the menu).
Melissa RogersDecember 28, 2013
Beet salad, BOMB brussels sprouts, pork buns, magical fried rice, spicy fried rice cakes, duck crepe, lamb noodles.
Fati HussainJune 23, 2015
Chicken & rice meal is great. Reserve 48 hrs in advance and you need at least a party of 4 but this meal easily feeds 8.
SiewSeptember 19, 2014
Get the lobster fried rice and the watermelon salad. Service a little patchy; we felt neglected by the desserts cart (and staff).
abbyMarch 14, 2011
suprisingly, menu items seem inspired by filipino flavors. the pig's head is perfect. other hits: cod in ginger coconut broth, sunchokes with peanuts, and the steak "frites" (compressed rice)
Andrea BarrezuetaOctober 9, 2014
Great place for lunch and dinner. Dim sum style lunch allows for a very tasty yet quick lunch.
Cole KennedyJuly 28, 2016
Not a transcendent experience, but the menu has some solid picks (including brisket buns and BBQ carrots) and the service is impeccable.
Jean TranFebruary 20, 2017
Good brunch, try the brisket grain bowl and matcha pancakes with lavender honey
Denise HeinsFebruary 5, 2016
Love the dim sum meets shared plates format - the small plate options were the real winners

Pork Ribs is the best! Braised Oxtail is good too. Mussels with beer broth has interesting bitter aftertaste that grows on you. For mid-afternoon sugar cravings, hit the Milk Bar for Compost Cookie!
Ryan AmbsJune 22, 2016
The waiter advised it was family style which seemed blatantly wrong after ordering. Order your own large dish and maybe a small for yourself as well.
Halstead PropertyJuly 25, 2011
If dining with four to six people, the beef shank is a must. You’ll be wide eyed at your first glimpse of it, but the eyes will grow even wider when you taste it.
Harumi UApril 26, 2015
In addition to "staples menu" (which also has seasonal items) they have carts that come around at all meal times
Liz MackMarch 4, 2015
You can't go wrong here - everything is excellent.
Maggie DelanoJanuary 1, 2015
Large format dinner = two roasted chickens and an incredible number of delicious sides. Totally worth it.
The Corcoran GroupApril 20, 2010
Try the Ma Peche Pop and enjoy one of the best cola drinks you've ever had. Also enjoy the branzini, short ribs and fried cauliflower - all delicious.
