I had dinner here recently & OMG the food completely blew me away! The fish was very fresh & you can tell it's good quality. The ambience & service were amazing too! Especially chef Minh, I had the chance to sit at the bar & he was very attentive & friendly:) Highly recommend!

Très sympa ce bar à sushi. J'ai été sur l'heure du dîner toute seule. Menu très intéressant & rassasiant. L'accueil est chaleureux ils m'ont mise à l'aise & les rolls sont délicieux & frais. J'y retourne définitivement mais en soirée la prochaine fois.

Had an amazing experience at Motto Handroll Bar, amazing food, ambiance, service an the cocktails are beautifully made. The atmosphere is very warm, perfect place for a special outing with your significant other. The reason for the 4 star review is because although the food is of high quality, the portions are very small for the price paid.

Great vibe & even better drinks. The bartender really know what they're doing & were super friendly the entire time. The atmosphere is fun but relaxed, making it a perfect spot to hang out with friends or unwind after a long day. Definitely a go-to hand bar- the waiter Will created a amazing vibe shout out to him. I'll be back for sure

(One star deducted by my stomach, which left deeply disappointed)

Motto Handroll Bar is dangerously delicious. The salmon & hamachi hand rolls are unreal, the salmon crudos are next-level, & the whole sit-at-the-bar concept is super cool. The vibe is great, the place feels alive, & the servers were on us like ninjas from the second we walked in until the second… the timer expired.

Because yes, there's a timer.

Before that though, let's talk portions. These hand rolls are tiny. Not'cute tiny.' Not'refined tiny.' More like'did this just disappear?' tiny. Everything tasted amazing, but it felt like we went out for an appetizer marathon & accidentally skipped dinner. We left still hungry, emotionally confused, & Googling nearby food options.

Now the best part: the 1 hour & 15 minute rule. I understand people are waiting. Totally fair. But here's the comedy. When our time was up, we wanted to order MORE food. As in, give you MORE money. Instead, we were politely told our time was over & it was time to go. So yes, we left not full… because we literally weren't allowed to eat more. Incredible business plot twist.

Quick warning: the shrimp hand roll didn't do it for me. Everything else? Fresh, tasty, beautifully done.

Would I come back? Absolutely. But next time I'm ordering like I'm speed-running the menu & training for it beforehand. No hesitation. No pauses. Full send.

Amazing vibe, great service, fantastic food. Bigger portions & a rethink on the time limit would turn this from'elite snack experience' into an actual dinner.

This is as much delicious food as it is an experience.
The interior is stunning & intimate. The service is great & the staff friendly.
The food was extremely fresh & flavorful. But wish the sushi chefs would interact more.

If I could suggest one thing about the restaurant is that they move some of the'bar' elements away to another area, to make it more immersive. Seeing lit up coolers with pop & beer took away from the vibe.

Otherwise a great spot. Would go back. Oh, & the miso soup was 10/10. Sometimes it's about the simple things.

Motto Hand Roll

Motto Hand Roll is that spot. The whole experience hits every sense - the high-end diffuser scent when you walk in, the stunning bar-style setup, the textures & flavours that are honestly next level, & décor that feels sleek & sexy. The hospitality ties it all together in such an effortless way.

It's the ideal place for a date night or a business dinner when you want to impress. Elevated, intimate, & unforgettable.

Would 10/10 recommend. Already planning my next visit.

It's like discovering a hidden gem! This intimate sushi bar is cozy & the food is exquisite & the staff are lovely. We went on a Sunday night to have a better chance of being seated right away, although there are velvet covered benches along the window where you can be served a cocktail while you wait. I recommend sharing a few crudos plates & maybe an Asian salad. The handrolls are so yummy & crispy on the outside. I had 4 of them! It is not the place to hang out all evening as seating is 1 to 1.5 hours, just like such places in Japan. Oh, & the sake cups are really cool.

My friends & I had an excellent experience. The hand rolls were delicious, & the service was even better. We all left with full bellies & smiles on our faces. Could not recommend Motto Handroll Bar enough!

Ambiance is cozy & service was good during lunch, but a hand roll bar should ultimately have excellent hand rolls.

The hand rolls (tried 6) were very underwhelming.

Rice temperature is off. Should not be as cool as fish.
Seaweed was too crunchy & hard to chew. It should be replaced.
Serving fake crab as a mix in a crab hand roll was disappointing.
