Momoya Chelsea offers a lively and diverse dining experience, with a menu ranging from matcha to pancakes to sushi. The restaurant is known for its great sushi options, with very fresh ingredients and a variety of rolls. Highlights include the Eel Avocado Roll, Chef's Special Sashimi, and crispy rice, which is noted as the best by many visitors. Soufflé pancakes and sushi/sashimi combos also stand out. The atmosphere is upscale yet unpretentious, and the open-air dining allows for enjoyable people-watching. Despite the small space and close tables, the quick service and 15-minute wait time ensure a seamless dining experience. The menu also features interesting items like fresh spring rolls with tomato and crab. Customers praise the excellent service, good vibes, and the high quality of food, making it one of the best meals in New York. The Goyza is exceptional, and the chicken teriyaki is perfect. The sushi, including signature roles like Crispy Tuna Rice, Nakamura, salmon crunchy, and black dynamite, is reasonably priced and consistently high-quality. The lobster spring rolls are a popular appetizer. While wait times can sometimes be long, the overall experience is highly recommended for those in the Chelsea area. With a large list of sakes and a welcoming atmosphere, this restaurant remains a favorite neighborhood spot.
