Momiji par OTTO earns strong praise for exceptionally fresh fish, creative sushi, and beautiful presentation, with the Momiji box tasting experience and signature items like foie gras maki, duck tataki, and standout sashimi frequently highlighted, and the ambiance and attentive service adding to the appeal; while several visits note that prices are high and a few dishes or aspects may not fully justify the cost, the overall impression is of a refined Japanese fusion experience with quality ingredients, inventive plates, and a lively yet intimate dining space that makes many guests eager to return.
* The salmon sushi should be served with more ginger.
* The kimchi duck noodles could be less salty & less oily.
* The service is professional & fast.
* Overall, the food is quite fresh.
* The dessert is very delicious.
Best lunch I had this year.
The Hokkaido uni was one of the best I ever had. Powerful yet delicate.
Service is always best in class.
Consistently great. Thank you for the experience.
Je suis allé chez Momiji Par Otto & honnêtement, ce que j'ai mangé a dépassé mes attentes. J'ai commandé le truffle maki & le hamachi maki; surtout le truffle maki était vraiment réussi son arôme était intense, mais bien équilibré sans être dérangeant. Le hamachi maki, lui, était incroyablement frais, la qualité du poisson se sent tout de suite. J'ai aussi essayé un hand roll (temaki), préparé après la commande & servi immédiatement, donc à la fois croustillant & très frais. Finalement, j'ai pris le gindara mazemen & c'est le plat qui m'a le plus surpris. La sauce était très riche & savoureuse, le poisson était parfaitement cuit &, globalement, c'était très rassasiant. L'endroit est moderne & épuré, avec une ambiance de qualité. Le service était rapide & attentionné. Comme expérience, c'était très équilibré & satisfaisant, autant du côté sushi que des plats chauds. Je vais définitivement revenir.

I went to Momoji by Otto for dinner on a Sunday at 7pm & we were surprisingly the only table there. The ambiance & decor were really nice-definitely a highlight of the experience.
As for the food, it was okay but nothing particularly memorable, especially for the price. The beef carpaccio was quite bland & overloaded with cheese, which threw off the balance of the dish. It lacked flavor overall. The crudo was decent, & the cod cheek stood out as the best item I tried-flavorful & well-executed.
The tasting box felt overhyped & underdelivered. The makis were just okay & didn't stand out in any way. Cocktails were also on the expensive side & not that impressive.
Overall, while the atmosphere was nice, the food & drinks didn't justify the price.
Second visit to Momiji in less than a month - with two different groups - & it was just as memorable the second time around. We were truly impressed by the quality of the food, the incredible freshness of the fish & seafood, & the thoughtful, beautiful presentation of every single dish.
Highly recommend the grilled lamb skewers with chimichurri, the Suzuki Crudo, Sashimi Moriawase, & the Otoro Nigiri - each one absolutely outstanding.
A special shoutout to the Momiji salad, which was surprisingly delightful. Who knew iceberg lettuce could be so captivating?
& to end an already wonderful meal, our favourite was the vanilla raspberry dessert - light, refreshing, & the perfect sweet finish. Definitely save room for dessert!
A heartfelt thank you to Vien & Nick for the warm, attentive, & fabulous service. Most of us will be back again soon!
I've given the food a 4/5, as the second time we ordered the cod cheeks they were slightly tougher than on our first visit. I really value consistency, especially when a dish stands out the first time. That said, every other plate was absolutely spot on & beautifully executed.
The location is a little hard to find as it's outside of the mall. Easiest way from inside the mall is to exit the door near the metro access. Walk down the stairs & turn right - you will see the restaurant.
From the outside parking lot, go up, then down the exterior stairs (near Siamo Noi) then turn right - you will find the restaurant a few steps away.
Vraiment remarquable! Tout était bon! Le boeuf Wagu, les sushis aux pétoncles, les brochettes d'agneau & les poissons. & les prix très très raisonnables! WOW
This place had amazing sushi & their appetizers were also delicious like the gyoza. Their desserts were so unique & tasted excellent. Their drinks were also amazing & the service was so quick & friendly. The restaurant is decorated so beautifully & it's quiet enough to have conversations.
