I have eaten dumplings at over 1000 places all over the world and nothing compares to the ones here. The food was amazing in a soup with garlic sauce and so many other flavours. I will drive an hour and a half from now on just to eat here. Well done and congrats to the owner a real gentleman and great service ... thank you

UPDATE: I've updated my review to a 5-star review because I have been to Momo again recently and they are taking orders manually again and I also was able to pay cash. The food, as always stated, is healthy and super tasty. Thanks for reviewing your practices Momo folks! Food is great. HOWEVER… the ordering system is awful. You’re standing there with a queue of people behind you trying to navigate a system that is not intuitive or user friendly. In addition to that, when you ask to just pay cash the answer is “we don’t have change”. There is just one poor girl behind the counter trying to do everything, making food and answering questions about the crappy ordering system. It’s not her fault. In the time I was there, 4 people just walked away saying this is all too hard. For the love of god, you’re not making it easy to spend money with you!

Momo Bar – Avalon, NSW Momo Bar in Avalon is a charming gem that delivers both in taste and ambiance. Tucked away in a bright and airy garden-themed courtyard, this casual eatery blends vibrant health-focused dishes with cozy, relaxed coastal vibes. Food Highlights: Pork Dumplings: Absolutely delicious — generously filled and smothered in a rich, spicy, and deeply flavourful broth. The perfect balance of heat and umami, with a silky dumpling wrapper that holds together beautifully. Aloha Sashimi Salad Bowl: Crisp, fresh, and overflowing with textures. The quality of the sashimi was impressive — tender, clean, and melt-in-your-mouth. Paired with edamame, seaweed salad, shredded carrot, pickled onion, and crispy shallots, it’s both nutritious and indulgent. Atmosphere: The ceiling is decked with faux greenery and pink florals, giving it an inviting, botanical feel. Natural light pours through the clear-roof pergola, while bamboo pendant lights add warmth. It’s casual, clean, and perfect for a breezy lunch or healthy dinner. Service: Friendly and efficient — ideal for a laid-back venue. Orders are placed via a self-service kiosk, which works smoothly and keeps the experience casual but professional. Final Thoughts: Momo Bar strikes a sweet spot between nourishing food and casual dining. It’s a standout spot in Avalon for health-conscious foodies, sushi and dumpling lovers, or anyone looking to unwind with vibrant, well-prepared meals. Highly recommended for solo meals, couples, or small groups looking for flavour without fuss. Rating: 4.7/5 – Aesthetic, tasty, and memorable.
