My wife and I, who live in suburban Detroit, were in Cleveland for an event earlier this year and went to Momocho for the first... time. We were truly impressed by how great it was. How impressed? So much so that we drove from Detroit to celebrate our 34thwedding anniversary there! And, to no surprise, our second experience at Momocho was even better than our first! As someone wholoves to cook, the Chef's Table was an incredible place to sit. And I have to say, Chef Nick was so friendly and accommodating.We talked about cooking, he made great recommendations, and just made the evening even more enjoyable. (He even shared hissecret for cooking an awesome Thanksgiving turkey.) Also, MJ, who was helping out (getting our drinks, etc.) was fab, too. Thefood was spectacular. We had a flight of guacs (pecorino, smoked trout, and goat cheese), the grilled octopus, and the carrotelote. All so damn good! I had the pork chop entree and my wife had the butternut squash flautas (you *have* to get the friedegg on top!). No surprise that those dishes were perfect as well. Unfortunately, we were so full, we couldn't do dessert. Butwatching the fried ice cream being prepared was almost as good as eating it. (Not really. We'll get some next time!) Oh, yeah.The blood orange and honey-ginger margaritas? Stellar. I love the combination of flavors the Momocho team puts together, notonly in their food, but in their drinks, too. We've only been there twice, but Momocho is our favorite restaurant. Period. Theonly downside? That it's 2 hours and 45 minutes away from our house. But, you know what? That's a small sacrifice to make forsuch delicious food and drink! We'll be back! And we might bring friends with us the next time! Read more

Simple dining perfection. All ingredients made from scratch. Margarita trios. Warm authentic service. No reservations so expect... a 30-60 minute wait during peak hours. You can walk around the neighborhood while waiting for a table. Read more

The vibe was great and the food was really nice too. I loved their mango margarita. I liked the fact that there were many... vegetarian options as well. Read more

Fantastic guacamole selections! Very evenly balanced and even had a bit of a kick to it! Food came out pretty quickly despite... being packed. Cozy atmosphere on the inside. Nice spot for a quick meal! Read more

The flights were really good! The menu is a little confusing because half of it is in Spanish, I had to Google some of the... things to find out what they were and I go to Mexican restaurants alot. The food was not bad just a little different than whatI'm used to but that could be a good thing depending on how you look at it. We also had a appetizer that I didn't get a pictureof, but it was good. We arrived a hour before they closed and still got good service and they didn't rush us out. Read more

Outstanding food. Fair prices. Great staff that gave us food suggestions and even though we came in 45 minutes before the... kitchen closed and finished dinner 5 minutes after the kitchen closed, the staff never made us feel like we should hurry up andleave. On the contrary they actually recommend the fried ice cream (very good) and went in and asked a special favor of thekitchen to cook it for me even though as previously mentioned they closed 5 minutes before. A wonderful restaurant and I'll besure to visit again the next time I'm in Cleveland. Thanks guys. Read more
