In the bustling heart of the city, a stone's throw from the entrance to Leidseplein and PC Hooftstraat, you'll find ultra-hip hotspot MOMO, a French- and Asian-inspired restaurant a stylish cocktail bar all in one.
Situated in several attached historic buildings, you walk into a world of design and subtle elegance at MOMO. Flavors and colors from the Far East are mixed here with the style and elegance of the West. The combination of the location, the well-thought-out interior, the intimate atmosphere and distinguished luxury make Momo an entertainment venue with international allure where the initiated traveler, businessman or Amsterdammer with taste likes to drop into the plush.
"I really feel that MOMO as a concept has had an impact on the Dutch restaurant scene. Creative Asian cuisine was an aspect we were not familiar with. And if you ask me, it's here to stay. Especially in a cosmopolitan city like Amsterdam." - Robert Kranenborg.
