From Ed Levine, Serious Eats New York:
"I've always felt that sweets have been the weakest part of David Chang's game. ... It turned out that I was suffering from premature baked goods disappointment. ... The sandwiches and savory breads are typical deeply delicious Changian creations, full of pork and fat and butter and cheese. The happy surprises here lie in the (mostly) perfectly-balanced-between-salty-and-sweet baked goods and ice cream."

"As with all things Momofuku-related, Milk Bar has been greeted with an apostolic fervor. But the no-frills space, connected to Momofuku Ssam Bar by a short hallway, discourages lingering groupies. Orders are placed and picked up in to-go boxes at the counter. You may consume your goods on the spot, if you don't mind eating standing up at one of the high communal tables."
- Ligaya Mishan, The New York Times
