went for dinner & had an amazing experience. the food was so fresh & prepared right infront of you. the staff, the owner, the food, the vibes, the presentation, everything was 10/10. will be coming back for sure!!! PAT'S THE BEST!
A great new spot that opened less than a year ago, very cozy, with amazing staff & good house music playing in the background at night.
It's a small, intimate space where the chef prepares your hand rolls & sushi right in front of you. There are no reservations-first come, first served-& seating is limited to about 1 hour & 15 minutes per group.
The food is excellent. The A5 aburi wagyu ($22 per piece), imported from Japan, is definitely a standout. They also offer off-menu items, like a sea urchin hand roll (also from Japan), along with options like salmon, toro ($20 for 2 pieces), & bluefin tuna ($15 for 2 pieces) nigiris.
For tighter budgets, they also offer set menus of 3 to 5 hand rolls at a fixed price, which ends up being more affordable than ordering everything à la carte.
I tried the negui toro, spicy shrimp, bluefin tuna, lobster, & hamachi handrolls, as well as the bluefin tuna & scallop crudo (both $20 for 4 pieces). Everything was fresh & well-executed. My favorite was definitely the toro.
Salmon is from Canada.
Tuna is from Mexico.
We also tried ice cream mochi as dessert.
We also met the owner, who pays close attention to every customer & makes sure everyone is well taken care of-super nice & welcoming.
If you're waiting or have finished eating, there are booths around the bar where you can sit & enjoy drinks. It's a perfect spot for a date or a fun night out with friends.
The drinks are great too-we had an unfiltered sake bottle, & on another visit, a bottle of wine, with a bunch or other cocktails & drinks.
I'd definitely go back.
There's no street parking, but you can find paid parking nearby or park on neighboring streets.

Really nice spot with a great concept! I love the idea of handrolls made fresh right in front of you, it feels simple but very well thought out.
I loved the design of the place! It is clean & modern, with a cool atmosphere that makes it easy to relax & enjoy your time there.
The food is fresh & well prepared, & the service is at a really high level. The staff is attentive & makes you feel very comfortable, which adds a lot to the overall experience.
Definitely worth checking out if you're in the area!
Absolutely superb restaurant from start to finish. Their attentiveness & communication are unmatched. Finally a place in the Old Port putting quality & freshness above & beyond profit.
The food, ambiance, design & price are phenomenal!
Beautiful intimate place. Food was impeccable! Delicious & fresh, they took note/care of allergies. The service was outstanding, Khoi was amazing to us. Informative, creative & very entertaining. Drinks & shots on point. Perfect Mama's night out! Thank you Khoi!
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!
Really beautiful date spot, super vibey & intimate.
The fish they used for the hand rolls was so fresh! The toro roll & salmon roll were the best I think
Motto was a fantastic experience. I sat at the counter & asked the chef for recommendations - he suggested the scallop handroll & the hamachi crudo, & both were outstanding. The scallop in particular was so fresh & perfectly balanced that I ended up ordering a second one. Each handroll was made right in front of me & served immediately, which made a huge difference in texture & flavor.
It actually reminded me a lot of Kazunori in New York - same focus on quality, simplicity, & timing - but with its own distinct charm. The ambiance was intimate & stylish without feeling stuffy, making it perfect for a date night or a relaxed but special evening out. I'd absolutely go back.
This handroll spot is an absolute gem. Every roll is made fresh to order, & you can taste the quality in every bite-from the perfectly seasoned rice to the ultra-fresh fish & crisp nori. The balance of flavors is spot on, & the texture is exactly what a great handroll should be: warm rice, cool fish, & that satisfying crunch.
The service is friendly & attentive without being overbearing, & the casual, intimate setup makes the experience even better. Whether you're a sushi purist or trying handrolls for the first time, this place delivers consistently amazing food. Easily one of the best handroll experiences I've had-can't wait to come back!
(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.

Fresh, delicious sushi! Everything was amazing! We have been to Japan before & this quality is similar. It is quite expensive though, so that is the only downside.
This place is walk in only however the wait wasn't too long for a Sunday night. We were seated in about 10 mins.
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.
Truly incredible experience, the service was amazing from top to bottom. We tried a good portion of the menu & it did not disappoint. The salmon & crap hand rolls were DELICIOUS✨ the fish was so fresh & high quality, very decently priced for quality. We will most definitely be back very soon
The food & the vibes were immaculate. Every roll was super fresh & flavorful, & the atmosphere made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place I'd recommend for a night out with the girls or a date.

Heard great things about this spot by friends & wow it didn't disappoint! The salmon was incredible! Fresh food, great signature cocktails but above all our waitress Cathy was delightful!! Her recommendations were spot on & her infectious smile made us feel so welcomed!! thank you Cathy & Motto !!
Such an incredible dining experience! Motto truly lives up to the hype. The space is beautiful, with an atmosphere that feels both comfortable & effortlessly elegant. Every member of the staff is attentive & genuinely welcoming.
The chefs are extraordinary, each dish shows an impressive level of care & craftsmanship. The tuna is exceptional, & everything tastes incredibly fresh.
The cocktails are also phenomenal & pair perfectly with the menu.
I highly recommend Motto for a date night or any occasion when you want a truly memorable evening. An easy 10/10!
Honestly had a wonderful lunch at Motto. Our server Will was truely amazing & present during our service. The salmon is beyond this world ! So fresh & tasty. 10/10 would recommand for either lunch or dinner !
We had an amazing experience at Motto! Maria was so great & helped us choose which rolls to get. Everything we tried was extremely flavourful, fresh & delicious. Best Salmon Tataki i've ever had, by far! Our favourite roll was the baked crab. The cocktails were great & the price was extremely reasonable :)
