Man this place was bad. Given the area I had low expectations and this was even worse than I could've imagined. The Tteokbokki was hands-down, the saltiest thing I've ever ordered at a restaurant in my entire life. Flavor profile was 100% off the sauce genuinely tasted like Play-Doh. The teriyaki chicken bowl wasn't much better whatever sauces y'all are using are horrendously bad. More salt doesn't equate the more flavor. Hope this helps. read more

I found this place through Yelp and decided to come here for lunch after seeing the photos of the ramen. It's relatively small (only about ten seats) and at the time, only two people were working. It took a little bit for the food to come out (my dad was able to go order a coffee at Coffee Break Cafe next door and bring it back before our orders came out) but the portions were perfect for our lunch and my dad really enjoyed his! The noodles are dropped off on the bar for you to pick up and you grab your own chopsticks as well. We ordered the Chili Ramen (tonkotsu with chili oil on top) and the Shoyu Ramen, both with pork as the protein. The cook on the egg was great (nice and gooey in the center and the white was nice and soft) but it was a little cold and lacked flavor (could've been marinated for longer?). The pork was a nice cut of meat but despite being blowtorched it was a little chewy and lacked a bit of flavor also. The lack of marination on these toppings was helped by the fact that the broth was great and flavorful and if you ate them with the broth and noodles, it was satisfying! I think the broth was the best part; I tried both of them and enjoyed drinking the broth by itself even without eating the noodles with it. Overall, I thought the ramen was OK (the soup was the best part!) but for the price and portion I think this is a nice place to stop by for lunch! My dad enjoyed it a lot and was impressed by the authenticity for an American establishment. read more

Not the best ramen . Took the classic ramen. Bowl was full but there was a bitter taste in the pork sauce. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance was a bit strange.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Person at the counter was scratching under his armpits and was the same guy who prepare the food. read more

Firstly, I would like to apologize that I was not able to take a picture of the ramen bowl before devouring it. I was hungry and the bowl was amazing. The pork was charred just right, the noodles had the perfect consistency, the eggs were soaked in soy sauce like I hoped and the broth was chef's kiss. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The atmosphere reminded me of all the hole in the wall ramen places I sat in when I lived in Japan.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] This was a great experience and I will be back to try all the other bowls they offer. If you are looking for a great ramen spot near the beach, this is it. read more

Stopped by for some ramen. Asked for suggestions and the person taking the order suggested the chili Ramen, but I don't like hot stuff so her second suggestion was Tonko (?) ramen which I got and it was delicious. The broth was unbelievably good and the bowl was full of wonderful Ramen, bean sprouts, pork slices and two eggs. I will definitely come back for more because it was so good. read more

Momoyo Ramen - A.K.A the only place on the Hampton beach strip that I will eat at. Having a place nearby, the food options are limited if you don't like fried/greasy food. Thank god for this place! A quaint, nicely decorated and themed restaurant with delicious food and great service is what you'll find here. Favorite menu items include the spicy ramen and the chicken teriyaki rice bowl. They are tasty, high-quality, and filling! They don't skimp on the portions here. My boyfriend also tried their milk tea and really enjoyed it. Lastly, we love the service here. The owner is a top-notch chef and is the nicest guy! read more

I got a kid ramen with chicken and a large side of pork delivered from an online order. The ramen broth was very flavorful and the chicken was tender and tasty. The pork was charred very nicely but I wish it had more than 4 pieces in a large order. Great flavor and fair prices, would 100% order from here again! read more

Not bad, not spicy enough for me when I order spicy ramen and rice beef bowl was good, bit over sweet for me.

OMG!!!!! The flavors.... I got the Tonkotsu ramen with pork.... Simply magnificent... the broth was almost creamy, buttery, silky smooth delicious. Enoki mushrooms were crisp and flavorful, the pork belly was a bit charred all around the edges, done with perfection, loads of ramen and green onion... a simple dish that hits on every level. read more

Great service and quality. The chef is trained and passionate about Ramen. The broth stands alone and is well balanced. Not too salty. Prices are reasonable. They have a convenient parking lot. Seating is limited in cold weather. However, they have outdoor seating in summer. The food generally sucks in Hampton Beach but MomoYo is definitely the exception. Great 80s music playing! read more

Awesome food [[HIGHLIGHT]]seating is a bummer[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] and I felt bad disturbing the girl behind the counter when I placed my order.

My husband and I went here this afternoon. He got the chili ramen and I got the chicken teriyaki bowl and we shared tteokbokki. Omg ALL of it was so delicious, so comforting. The flavors were on point and complex and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambience was so relaxed and chill with good music and cozy little seats but the counter.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will absolutely go again and again! The gentleman who cooked our food was also very nice, and clearly loves to cook and is fantastic at it. I talked about how good the food was the whole hour drive home! read more

Momoyo Ramen - Quality over quantity - Ramen Near Me - Hampton, New Hampshire

I got here right before they closed tonight to pick up a takeout order (I ran into some traffic on my way and was a little late) the staff was incredibly friendly, kind, and understanding. (Having worked in food service before I never remembered being that nice at the tail end of my shift, hats off to these folks) I got their classic tonkatsu ramen and it was literally OUT OF THIS WORLD. I've had ramen all over the country and this is hands down the best I have ever tried. Run, don't walk, to MomoYo. I would have taken a picture but I ate it too fast. read more

Food is incredible and you are in and out. Best anywhere around NH We try to go once a month - nice ride and great food read more

Best food option on Hampton Beach! Something different for the area. The Classic Tonkotsu Ramen had a couple different meat options so I went with the chicken. All aspects of the ramen were great, broth was rich and flavorful, noodles had a chewy texture and chicken was well seasoned and soft. Tteok-bokki rice cakes were chewy and gochujang sauce had a hint of sweetness but it didn't take away from the spiciness. My overall experience was enjoyable. Chef, Marquel, was a pleasure to meet. He was friendly, receptive to feedback and open about his creations. He even gave me a cute pin for the restaurant as it was my first visit. Can't wait to see what else they can do! read more

The outside is unassuming. The inside is funky. If you talk to the people working there, you'll quickly realize these folks have a passion for the food they make. It's like they went to every ramen shop in New England, identified what those shops were doing wrong, and did the opposite. The end result is a small menu perfected, with weekly specials, made by people who want you to enjoy the entire experience. I can't wait to go back and try every item on the menu. read more

Great spot and their broth is delicious! Highly recommend for their ramen. Nice to have this place in Hampton.

Great Ramen! It was tasty and the service was fast. Small awesome place. I will be returning to try other items.

Some of the best ramen I've had. The shredded chicken is absolutely the best I've ever had. My only complaint is their hours - they're closed Mon-Wed and are only open from 1pm-8pm Thurs-Sun. Hands down the best ramen place in the area! Please consider extending your hours so that I can eat here more often :) read more

I agree with others, don't let the outside look fool you, this place is a gem! My wife and I stopped in for some ramen. We got the veggie miso ramen and it was excellent!! Great savory broth, the tofu was fantastically prepared and seasoned, the noodles were perfectly done with just the right amount of chewiness. Can't wait to come back to try the tteok boki! read more

Very casual, counter service with incredibly delicious & satisfying ramen bowls. (Can't speak for the other menu items, but I'm sure they're just as wow-ing!) The broth is rich, nourishing and warms your belly.

Incredible food, Creative specials and good vibes. Very casual environment and they're planning on adding a bar section soon!

The best ramen shop around. It's a small counter sharing a space with a sub shop. The ramen portion is a one man show, but manages to be consistently great every time. Chef Marquel turns over bowls like clockwork. Even better, it's reasonably priced. A lot of the other places around here think they can upcharge $5 because they're. Momoyo charges reasonable prices for better ramen. Keep an eye out for the tantan ramen special. The nutty flavor adds a beautiful touch to it. read more

Had a fantastic bowl of ramen here. It had a great balance, lots of complexity, just the right amount of spiciness, and a surprising and pleasant sweetness to the broth. The chashu pork in the bowl might be the best I've had anywhere. Great bowls of noodles seem to resonate with me, and I find myself thinking about them the next day. I think I'll be thinking about this bowl of ramen tomorrow. read more
