Cuisine: Japanese, Latin American, Peruvian
Price Point: Mains from £10-£20
This destination restaurant is where Japan meets Peruvia, serving up sophisticated and firey dishes in a setting reminiscent of a cocktail joint in Miami.
With a focus on raw, grilled and gluten-free food, it is perfect for clean eaters as well as anyone with an interest in deliciously different sharing and solo plates.
The menu is a kaleidoscope of fresh flavours. Enjoy sticky miso glazed chicken wings, mixed seafood ceviche and pork belly bites served with sweet potatoes caramelised in agave syrup.
The side game is superb. Peruvian egg fried rice with soy and sesame is an explosion of umami notes, while Peruvian giant corn with sea salt, yuzu and coriander is not to be missed.
Take your pick from an innovative cocktail menu, selection of Japanese whiskies or delve into the exclusively Latin American wine list.

This place has a sophisticated 'young' vibe which we really enjoyed. The waiters were all very friendly and attentive. The menu suggests a starter and a main but we found the main portion sizes to be very generous so whether or not a starter is needed is up to you. The pork bites were delicious, as was the chicken teriyaki. All food was gorgeously presented. Bonus points - everything is gluten free and they cater for vegans. Awesome place for dinner, will be returning.

Mommi was incredible. From when we first arrived, our waitress was attentive and welcoming. Happy hour is until 7pm so we were able to get delicious 2-4-1 cocktails to start off our meal. We started with the miso chicken wings, king prawns and ceviche, on recommendation of our waitress. The ceviche was so yummy and fresh - definitely the highlight of our meal! We followed with the flat iron steak, miso salmon, sweet potato fries and finished with a trio of mini desserts. Everything was amazing, I couldn't fault a thing. We wouldn't have discovered this gem without First Table and we'll definitely be back!

The £15 3 course vegan supper club on Tuesdays/Wednesday was absolutely fantastic. With the 50% offer, it felt too good to be true and I really struggled to pick my dishes from the options because it all sounded delicious.
I still think about the amazing fresh taste of the tomato and persimmon ceviche!
Sherrie Talgeri - dined at Mommi on 27 November 2019
Really good tasty dishes! I highly recommend the sushi bowl, the ceviche and the salmon if you like fish/seafood.
I don’t recommend the caramelised corn or the truffle fries didn’t taste of truffle.

We had a fantastic tome at Mommi. The service, food and atmosphere was all excellent. The menu was great for us to share and try out many options!

Mitra Katrine - dined at Mommi on 15 October 2019
Lovely atmosphere with great music. Staff very friendly and very accommodating when they overheard my mother stating she was cold due to the draft from the door, they immediately went away and found us another table. Food was overall lovely but two stand outs were the prawn starter and the beef steak main. Overall a great place for a night out.
Hodo Abdullahi - dined at Mommi on 16 August 2019
In general food was quite nice. The poke bowl was a bit disappointing- as I don't understand why was there rice as well as sweet potatoes in the bowl?
Jessica Leung - dined at Mommi on 30 July 2019
Fantastic service. Definitely recommend the pork belly and the creme brûlée.

We arrived late in the morning for brunch. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The food we had was divine and was also very quick to be served which is a bonus. Absolutely no negatives to mention during our experience. Highly recommend everyone tries MOMMI!

It was great. Food was great and healthy as usually and the service was wonderful. I went for my fiancée birthday and they sang for him which I didn’t even expect. Love Mommi

We had great food and enjoyed it. Asked for tap water and were given still water which we had to ask them to remove from our bill, which was a bit embarrassing but otherwise lovely.

We shared a starter and a couple of nibbles, all vegetarian, then for main I had the Sushi Power bowl which was incredible! Amazing fresh fish, avo, really interestingly presented and delicious. We shared chocolate brownie and the cheesecake which were beautiful desserts and also really tasty. The staff were very friendly and attentive. Would definitely recommend and next time want to go for cocktails later on! Thank you!

Lovely decor and ambience, great cocktails, a small but inventive, tasty and colourful menu and the best bit- the whole menu is gluten free! We will be back again!
Gayle Henderson - dined at Mommi on 1 March 2019
Nice experience at Mommi. The service was very friendly and attentive. The plates we ordered were nice but some of the flavour combinations didn’t quite work.
Sam Foreman - dined at Mommi on 1 March 2019
The food was excellent - very tasty and fresh. I haven't eaten like this since being in Peru (THAT good!). The wait staff were very attentive and really friendly. Also the food portions were slightly bigger than expected - which was a positive! Would highly recommend.

It was lovely! Such a nice venue, flavour of the food was just perfect.. only the bigger plates.. were in my personal opinion not that big.. you need a smaller platter with to be satisfied..
Great service too. Definitely coming back!
Laura Ooms - dined at Mommi on 18 December 2018
This is quite a fun place to go to on a weekend. We had a good time. The food was an unusual but tasty combination of Peruvian and Japanese fusion but it works well especially in the small sharing plates format.
Zara Khan - dined at Mommi on 14 December 2018
Accidentally booked a reservation here. But was pleasantly surprised by the weird but cool menu. Fresh food and friendly service
Jeff Teahan - dined at Mommi on 15 December 2018
Our first experience at Mommi was fantastic, the service was great from the moment we walked in. There was a great vibe, good selection of cocktails and tasty food! We loved the fish and chips and trio of desserts! (Choc brownie, banana ice cream & chocolate mousse yum!)
Natalie At - dined at Mommi on 24 November 2018
I went to Mommi with 3 other friends. We had the ceviche, the sweet potato chips and broccoli to begin with, and for mains we had the flat iron steak, the pork belly bites and the beef brisket. The food was great and the waiter was very attentive.
Joseph Lau - dined at Mommi on 16 November 2018
We had a really nice meal at Mommi. Our server, May, was very warm and friendly, knew the menu very well - probably very convincingly made up anything she didn’t!
The flavours were quite stunning, a real fusion in any one mouthful. We were advised to have a small plate and main plate each but one small plate and two main were more than ample.
We had the pork belly bites and the brisket of beef; the beef was stunning and whilst the flavours of the pork were great, it was just a touch over cooked and dry.
The desserts were ok - inexpensive but not special, but a nice ending. Even without First Table it wouldn’t have been overly expensive. We’d go again.

My partner and I Ioved this place! We shared a bigger plate and 2 smaller plates and it was the perfect amount of food for 2 people. The Tuna Tartare was definitely the highlight! Will definitely be back!
Sophie Scholes - dined at Mommi on 18 October 2018
We had an amazing meal here especially as it's not a description of food that would ever have appealed (gluten free menu, good for celiacs etc.) It's very tasty, strong flavours, very friendly service as well as staff that evidently knew a lot about people's dietary requirements. The atmosphere was buzzy, 'trendy' but laid back. It was really good.
The only downside was it was quite loud, and when we were there, we happened to have a massive group of 35 year olds acting like they'd only just had their first beer and were REALLY loud, screaming song lyrics etc. But, it is a bar too I guess, and they finally quietened. I feel they could have done more to get them to quiet down a bit.
Anyway, would definitely come back. I love Japanese food and didn't know much about Peruvian, so it was a fab experience.
Georgia Bennett - dined at Mommi on 20 October 2018
I've been here once before and had a good experience. This time exactly the same, the waitress was very helpful, gave a lot of information and provided some good recommendations. I'm allergic to some nuts but I am fine with some, unlike other restaurants they wanted to understand my allergy rather than "blanket" can't eat nuts. Generally very good experience!
Davion Cheng - dined at Mommi on 29 September 2018
Sometimes with deals like this you feel like second-rate citizens as you are getting a cheaper deal but that wasn’t the case here - staff couldn’t have been nicer food was great but would like a few more Japanese influences some Sushi would make the menu perfect — great place, great cocktails and a brilliant deal and incentive to eat a little earlier and enjoy more drinking time
Daniel O'Hehir - dined at Mommi on 7 September 2018
Loved this place, our waitress was brilliant, took us through the menu and the specials, with excellent recommendations on what to not miss. The tuna tartare was delicious. Loved the fact that this restaurant encourages sharing. Shared 4 dishes and desserts between two and had a selection of 3 desserts. Will definitely be going back soon!
