Reviewers describe Dessert Café Momo as a cozy, charming little Korean style cafe with a small, intimate space that can feel busy and not very spacious at peak times. The menu earns praise for bingsu and desserts, including mango and strawberry bingsoo that are fresh, not too sweet, and generously portioned, along with cakes, macarons, tiramisu, and matcha specialties, though some macarons are criticized for being too small or the shell too crispy. The atmosphere is warm and relaxing, with friendly staff and a sense of care, and sometimes a dog visits adding to the experience. Ordering is easy via an electronic kiosk, and the coffee and other drinks pair well with the pastries, with some remarks that the house drinks are well balanced and not overly sweet. A few reviews note that the place can get busy and space is limited, leading to occasional waits or the need to move along during peak times, but overall it remains a favorite for locals and visitors seeking a comforting dessert stop. Several patrons express the desire to return to try bingsoo again and highlight the pleasant neighborhood vibe and reliable quality across both drinks and sweets.
The space is cozy without trying too hard, making it an easy place to slow down for a bit.
We started with the honey ginger lemon tea, which was warm & genuinely comforting, especially well balanced rather than overly sweet. The matcha cake was light & fluffy, with a clean matcha flavor that didn't overwhelm. We also tried the Injeolmi & mochi macaron & the chocolate macaron, both well made & satisfying, with textures that worked nicely together.
There's a sense of care in both the menu & the atmosphere. We'd love to come back to try their bingsoo next time & spend a little more time enjoying the space.
I came here on my last day in Montreal for a dessert treat & ordered the mango bingsoo. It was my first time trying bingsoo & I will say that this cafe made it one of my favourite treats. It was delicious & not too sweet which I liked. It tasted very fresh. I ordered a size small, & it was still a very generous portion, even with the fresh fruit inside.
Ordering was pretty easy, there is an electronic kiosk that you use.
The atmosphere was warm & wholesome 💗
Customer service was superb. The owner hands the order to you, & he is so sweet. When I was there, he was with his dog & he let me say hi!
Getting there was not too difficult; If you take the metro, board metro orange & stop at station Villa-Maria.
Thank you for a memorable evening~

I've been going to this café for years, it's my favorite in Montreal. Both their drinks & desserts are amazing, not too sweet. I always order the mango bingsoo (even when it's -40°C outside) & mocha. They also make the best strawberry shortcake!
The owners are the absolute sweetest🩷
We discovered Dessert Café Momo by chance after our Korean meal nearby, while looking for a spot for dessert. They serve bingsu & coffees in a cozy, casual setting.
We tried the red bean bingsu, & it was refreshing & satisfying - not too sweet, with a nice texture. A great way to end the evening!
Love this café. I often go here to grab coffee & macaroons, & sometimes a bingsu depending on the vibe with friends. The owner is kind & sweet as always. When we got there to study, he told us right away that if it gets busy, we may have to leave as the place is not very spacious. This happened to be the case & we were kindly asked to leave.
I appreciate your transparency & gentleness. Will always come back here :-)
I wish I could come here often, sadly it's a bit far from my place. Everything is super good & I really like it. The fruit flavour is fresh & not too sweet at all. I really hate artificial flavour & this place is just the best! I met the owner once & he is super friendly. I also saw Momo a few times too
I pre ordered a small whole cake for an anniversary. Writing was perfect, & my partner loved it. Cake is not too sweet, cream is light ! It doesnt taste like chemicals. It also came packaged in a pink box , reminded me of wes anderson movies. Loved the whole attention to detail! Thank you!

Most adorable cafe ever! We got the medium strawberry bingsoo & medium tiramisu bingsoo, & both were beyond amazing & huge portions. Neither were overly sweet but just the right amount to be delicious. The coffee is also wonderful, definitely coming back all summer!
This is such a cute little place! The Korean ice cream was AMAZING! The staff was super sweet & took the time explain the menu. I got the tiramisu Korean ice cream & it was to die for! I definitely will be coming back as well as recommending to everyone!
Their Americano boasts a delightful blend of floral notes & great acidity, while their irresistible macarons have converted me, a non-sweet enthusiast. The friendly staff & owner contribute to a positive atmosphere, making it a definite recommendation for a mood-boosting weekend.
This place is my favourite korean dessert place to-go. I am Korean myself, but the things I eat here reminds me of when I was living in Korea. The cakes are so freaking delicious, they have matcha, sweet potatoe, strawberry, blueberry, oreo cakes & so on. If you go there, they sell their cakes by pieces, if you want to order the whole cake, you will have to preorder 2 days in advance
You should definitely try their macarons & their korean shaved-ice dessert with all kinds of toppings. Must-try guys
On their IG they show some pictures of their cake & macarons artwork & yes. they have a dog named Momo, they called their cafe by his name he is adorable!
Been coming here for years & I was never disappointed! Favorite brownie bingsoo in town (also the only place who has it 😂)
But recently started to take a liking to their macarons as well 👀 i don’t know how but they’re soft & crunchy at the same time, not too sweet, just perfect .3714765246632E+24;
It’s true that they don’t take credit cards so just prepare cash or use debit card (it’s not that hard 🤨)
