Is Momofuku good? Reviews suggest mixed opinions. Many find Momofuku's products like the Soy & Scallion Noodles to be delicious and quick to prepare, offering a premium instant meal experience. However, some reviewers feel that the flavors, particularly in the sauces and chili crisp, do not justify the high price point. Users appreciate the convenience and unique flavors, but potential buyers should be aware of the higher cost and varying satisfaction with taste.

  • I tested the Tingly Chili Wavy Noodles with no discount through Thingtesting. I purchased this item at Target. The noodles have a very good taste and are the wide noodle (see pic below). There are 5 single packs 3.35 oz. each in the package. The Tingly Chili sauce that comes with it was good. A little spicy as I only used 1/2 pk. If you like spice use the whole pack. I thought it was good and would recommend.

  • Momofuku is seriously addictive! Their products are so unique and packed with flavor, whether it’s their noodles, sauces, or the famous chili crunch. Everything they make has this perfect balance of savory, spicy, and umami that’s hard to beat. The ramen is always a go-to, but I also love using their seasoning and sauces to elevate home-cooked meals. It’s one of those brands that you can’t stop reaching for once you start. If you’re a fan of bold flavors and innovative ingredients, Momofuku is a must-have in your kitchen!

  • Momofuku products hold a special place for me, coming from New York where it feels like home. The savory offerings are exactly what you’d expect from such an iconic name—phenomenal. The noodles are perfectly textured, the spices are perfect in every dish, and the soups are comfort food at its finest. While they’ve nailed the savory essentials, the dessert side feels like it’s missing that same magic. That said, for anyone who loves bold and authentic savory flavors, Momofuku is absolutely worth it.

  • First, I would like to thank my boyfriend for introducing me to this ramen. Did I consider it a massive turnoff when he said, “Let's have some store-bought ramen for dinner?” Yes. Was I wrong for thinking this? Also, yes. The taste is amazing, and unlike most store-bought ramen, you do not feel disgusting after eating. I don't know about you, but Top Ramen gives me a stomachache.

  • These actually turned out really well! They’re especially nice if you top the finished product with something fresh of your own, like an egg or some veggies. Otherwise, they do a great job of adding a certain degree of restaurant quality to a packaged Ramen.

  • I love to add these to soups. Such a tasty and easy way to add depth and substance to your cooking. I find the ingredients to be good too.

  • I like how the noodles are not fried and have a good texture but do take a while to cook. The flavors are okay.

  • The Chili Crunch is a savory, not that spicy condiment that adds flavor to all kinds of meals. It's not my favorite chili crunch out there, but it's a solid option. I appreciate that it's vegan and has lots of depth without MSG.

  • Obsessed. The tingly chili flavor of the noodles is the best. So easy to use this as a base for a quick snack or full meal. I use the chili crisp on everything.

  • Momofuku Soy and Scallion Noodles are an absolute game-changer for quick, delicious meals! The noodles are perfectly chewy, and the soy and scallion sauce is packed with bold, savory flavors that taste like it came straight from a gourmet kitchen. They’re so easy to make and versatile—I love adding veggies, a fried egg, or protein to take them to the next level. The quality of the ingredients is top-notch, and it’s amazing to have such a satisfying meal ready in minutes. If you’re looking for elevated instant noodles with incredible flavor, Momofuku Soy and Scallion Noodles are a must-try. Highly recommend!

  • Tasty noodles if following their recommended cooking time. It's easy to prepare and their umani flavors tingle the tongue. My only compliant is the noodle portion size but you can always just cook two packets.

  • Pretty delicious! These noodles came to me with no agenda- a friend got a massive order as a gift from family and handed a few packs off to me. The noodles are top tier for anything in the instant or even just dry packaged arena. And I enjoy the flavor/broth varieties. I'd say the only place where it falls short for the price point is in the dry ingredient add-ins. I've yet to fit a packaged ramen that feels like there are actually substantial dried add-ins- these, much like other brands are just some dry flakes that have more of an aesthetic value, dont add much to the taste.

  • Unfortunately, I have mixed feelings about Momofuku products. The good: the products are generally delicious and tastier than competitor's products. The bad: the products are expensive from their website and bewilderingly even more expensive (by over 50%!!!) if you buy from Momofuku's own store on Amazon Canada, customer service passes the buck in case of shipping issues, and brace yourself for daily spam from Momofuku once you place an order. It's too bad that every order from them feels gougey.

  • Tried their noodles and thought it was very mid. I tried their Soy & Scallion and Tingly Wavy Noodles and the sauce was super weak. I think Soy & Scallion literally contained a pack of soy sauce and dried scallions. Tingly one was a bit better. Overall, sauce lacks flavor. Noodles were basic white taiwanese noodles.. but I even found the noodles to be too mushy because the cut is relatively thin, so gets mushy very easily. Save yourself some money and go buy a pack of Taiwanese white noodles and throw some soy sauce yourself.

  • The Momofuku noodle offerings bring a spicy and fun change of pace to the easy dinner options. If you crave something tingly with a kick, all three flavors will be enjoyable. They are a bit pricey, but a nice addition to the pantry.

  • Absolutely delicious. Their restaurant grade sauce tastes like you’re dining at Momofuko. I love it when brands can exist outside their store fronts. Good work Chef!

  • The noodles make for a really good quick lunch. They're not too filling on their own but I always add an egg to make them more filling and the flavor even more rich. The noodles themselves are really delicious, and all of the flavors are fantastic.

  • The Chili Crunch is great. I’ve been putting it on almost everything. A little pricey but a little goes a long way so it’s worth it. I’m definitely going to try the other flavors.

    Outside of it being a little pricey for the size I really don’t have any complaints.

  • I am OBSESSED with Momofuku’s Chilli Crunch. I travel with it. I drizzle it on every egg, rice or noodle dish (see photo below). I’ve eaten it plain. It’s the perfect amount of umami for me — salty, crunchy, spicy. Overall YUM!

    Just be careful with stirring + spooning it out! It can get a little messy with the oil.
