MoMo Café is the buffet restaurant on the 5th floor of the Courtyard by Marriott Seoul Times Square, connected to the Times Square mall in Yeongdeungpo. It serves breakfast, lunch and dinner as buffets, plus an afternoon tea set. Posts from 2026 give KRW 105,000 per adult for dinner and weekend lunch, KRW 75,000 for weekday lunch and KRW 45,000 for breakfast. At dinner and weekend lunch each guest gets a lobster plate brought to the table; 8 posts say they had it. Posts from March to May 2025 gave KRW 93,000 for dinner and weekend lunch and KRW 69,000 for weekday lunch. We read 30 posts from December 2024 to October 2026; 21 of them describe an actual meal.

The values differ, but the periods they were written in do not overlap. This looks like a change over time rather than a disagreement, and the top row is the most recently reported. We did not confirm it with the restaurant.
What sets it apart
- Six posts mention a window seat — a sunset view at dinner, a bright seat even on a rainy afternoon. One May 2025 post says the window blinds go up only after 7 pm, so book a window seat for after sunset glare. One October 2026 post got an aisle table and was told you can request a window when booking.
- Nine posts went with a discount — Naver booking deals of 5%, 10% or 15%, or 10% off for Marriott Bonvoy members. One October 2026 post paid KRW 472,500 instead of 525,000 for five adults at weekend lunch with 10% off.
- They do not seat anyone before the buffet opens. Two posts arrived early and waited in the lounge by the entrance; one queued before the 18:00 dinner and was seated in order. A May 2025 post complained that guests standing at the door were let in before those who had been waiting in the lounge.
- Four posts said it is not expensive for a Seoul hotel buffet, comparing it with the KRW 200,000 that crab and lamb usually cost elsewhere. One October 2026 post, even with a discount, doubted it was worth the price and said they would not return.

Parking

Parking is shared with the hotel and the Times Square garage. One post got validated parking and two used valet at the hotel entrance; an April 2026 hotel stay describes long lines and switching to the valet lane. The '4 hours free' figure is copied from listings, and one post warns the garage can be very hard to enter at weekends.

Where it is
We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.
From the station
2 posts say it is walkable from the station.
Getting inside
| In a basement | yes 0 · no 14 (of 20 posts read) |
|---|---|
| Lift to the floor | 7 of 20 posts |
You reach the 5th floor by a dedicated hotel elevator from basement level 1 of Times Square. Seven posts describe taking it, placed next to the Crocs store or around the corner from Olive Young; 14 posts place the restaurant on the 5th floor from their own visit. Several say the elevator is hard to find the first time.
Nobody wrote about wheelchair or stroller access, or about a step at the entrance. We only know you reach it by elevator. That means no one mentioned it, not that there is a problem.
Nobody said whether the restrooms are inside the restaurant or separated by gender. We don't know.
No one mentioned: Second floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Toilet inside · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

Posts that followed a TV spot
Of the 29 posts we gathered, 9 went up on a single day right after a TV spot and show no sign of a visit. They retell the broadcast, so we left them out of the counts.
We do not discard them. That a TV spot produced a burst of posts is itself something worth knowing about a place, and a star rating will not show it.

What we do not know
- Posts split on size: three call it spacious (it looks small from the entrance but runs deep; tables are well spaced), four say it is not large, mostly meaning the buffet area and the range of dishes.
- Prices changed over time: KRW 93,000 / 69,000 / 40,000 (dinner and weekend lunch / weekday lunch / breakfast) in posts from March–May 2025, and 105,000 / 75,000 / 45,000 from March 2026. The posts don't show exactly when it rose. Drinks and some seasonal show dinners cost extra.
- Opening hours run by meal: breakfast 06:30–10:00, lunch 12:00–14:30, dinner 18:00–21:00. Other posts write it as 06:30–23:00 with breaks from 10:00–12:00 and 14:30–18:00 — the same schedule written differently, and mostly copied from listings. One post gave breakfast from 06:00. Seasonal show dinners were said to run on Fridays and Saturdays only.
- Eleven posts booked ahead, mostly through Naver. Several posts give the same phone number, 02-2638-3081. One post notes that Naver discount deals are prepaid and not refundable on the day.
- One October 2026 jazz-dinner post and one November 2025 Christmas-date post read like promotions but don't say whether they were sponsored. The claim of a January 2026 renovation is hearsay from one post.
