Momo Sushi

I come to Momo all the time! They recently (last year) explained their restaurant doubling the space which is great! I usually do take out here and they are so accommodating. I am vegan and love their tofu teriyaki, and veggie maki rolls! They will customize them to make them vegan for me which is great. One thing that annoys me is they are closed from 2:30−4pm which would be fine except they will not start making an order until 4:30. I’ve called for take out at 4pm multiple times and I can’t come get it until almost 5. So really they should say they are closed until 4:30pm! Shiso in Red Deer is open all day but Momo has different dishes and jumbo avocado rolls so I still enjoy coming here.

Not sure what you feel like for dinner? Momo Sushi have amazing sushi and sashimi with quick and prompt service. I find the combos large enough to have a few pieces as leftovers because they include salad and miso soup. My fiancé and I usually order 2 combos for take out and it is well bagged and ready for us.

I came to Momo because the one in Kelowna is one of my favorites. The food quality at the Red Deer location is was excellent, but the service left a bit to be desired. My waitress was actually eating while she served me. I watched her take a bite of a sushi cone from the service area then approach me. Her mouth was so full as she tried to speak and chew at the same time that she had to cover it with her hand so food didn’t fall out.
I’m quite aware of cultural differences, and I’m pretty forgiving but I guess being served by an eating waitress was a little too gross for me.
The restaurant is clean and pleasant, but it was late on a weeknight and I was eating alone, and was seated right next to the only other patrons in the spacious dining room. I’ve found this common in other Asian restaurants and I’m not sure if this is for the convenience of the server or another cultural choice that I don’t understand. So if delicious sushi is all your after, give it a try.

Pleasantly surprised by the new expansion! Service was good and food was good — I did think the rice was a bit too warm on the sushi rolls so things didn’t stick together that well.

My boyfriend and I ate from this place yesterday and today we’re in bed sick cause we got food poisoning. We ordered their salmon and little did we know we ate tainted fish. Don’t eat in this place!

This was the best sushi I have ever had!
Great service, and generous portions.
Rolls meticulously crafted and tempura with the perfect balance of crunchy exterior and succulent interior!
Will joyfully come back again and again!
This was truly a Christmas miracle to have discovered momos!
Merry Christmas

Great sushi was amazed for red deer to have this good sushi. I been too many different sushi restaurants in Alberta this one is in my top 3 !

The rolls were excellent! Tasted fantastic and made me want to savor the experience. I also like the décor of the place. Another bonus, seemed pretty quiet when I went, Saturday evening at 5.

They have decent food. Nice décor. Quick, attentive service. Overall a favourite stop, especially if your in healthy food mode.

I still can’t even believe that the best sushi in Alberta is in Red Deer. RED DEER. Three of us were driving to Banff for a ski trip and decided to grab some food in Red Deer while we were passing through. I felt like sushi and was totally ready and committed to grabbing some from Tokyo Express. As it turns out, there isn’t even a Tokyo Express in RD, and why would there need to be when you have Momo?! I turned to my Unilocal app to help find a sushi place and they by far had the best reviews. Yes, it is a bit off the highway and you have to drive a bit into the city, but it is completely worth it. The prices were cheap. Like, $ 4.99-$ 6.99 for maki rolls which were HUGE. For the amount of food we got, we would have easily paid double in Edmonton. Further to the portion size, the food was actually so delicious. All the fish tasted fresh, there where huge chunks of fish or vegetables in the rolls and the salmon sashimi took me back to my happy place in Vancouver.
Even though we took the food to go, I can vouch for the service being excellent. My friend brought her dog along on the trip and asked for a miso soup bowl full of water in addition to her food order. The woman was totally cool with it and even bagged the bowl separately for her. Just a nice extra touch.
I can’t say enough good things about this place and the food. Thank you Unilocal for pointing me in the right direction (as you tend to do).

I’m exploring more of Red Deer’s food scene, and this a definite keeper. I love sushi, and I was very satisfied by the service, menu variety, and sushi. I highly recommend their sushi pizza. Unexpectantly filling, and made to share. The specialty rolls are just right in proportion.
I would come here again. If you’re feeling Asian cuisine tonight, skip Blue Dragon Thai and stop here.

I had a very brief experience at Momo. Even though I didn’t have time to eat anything during this work week, I made the conscious effort to visit at least ONE local place to check out what Red Deer has to offer. Seeing as how Jason L. gave a decent review, I decided to check this place out.
It was during lunch time, I needed to get something quick, so I ordered their teriyaki chicken rice bowl. It came with a salad and miso soup which was nice. The meal looked yummy, but the chicken wasn’t what I expected. I expected the teriyaki sauce to be a bit sweeter, but it was sans sweet. It looked like they offered sushi and bento boxes during lunch which looked okay, but nothing special.
Overall, this place is not bad considering the fact tht Red Deer only has three japanese restaurants. The service was very friendly and fast. I liked that a lot.

Really nice fresh food– my favourite sushi in Red Deer. Very small seating area though.

A really decent little sushi bar, and I mean little, just on the southern edge of down town Red Deer.
I don’t want to sound too much like a big city sushi snob, but it’s not really near the best sushi or sashimi I’ve ever had nor that I would expect out of similar spot in Edmonton. That being said, it’s pretty good, especially for the price which is really reasonable.
The difference is mainly that the fish is not first grade sushi grade fish. It certainly is not inedible, but you don’t get those subtle secondary flavours you should really expect from first grade sushi or sashimi. There are notes of smokiness, nuttiness and even citrus that just aren’t there. Aside from that, the sushi is well made and the rice is good.
Certainly better than a Tokyo Express, even though it’s middle of the pack in a larger city.

Momo Sushi offers excellent, fresh food at reasonable prices. Five years ago, you couldn’t buy sushi in Red Deer — now we have three excellent sushi places!
I had a combination sushi/​maki dish and a pot of tea. My meal came with salad and miso soup. Portions were generous and the food was very good $ 15.00 all in.
