Such a trendy Japanese restaurant tucked into the streets of Collingwood. Absolutely loved this place, it was full of nostalgia with old school items as you walk in. The share plates were of a generous size and delicious!
On our recent visit the gyoza was burnt. Can the Manger note that your chairs are not fit for comfort. The price point here should allow for a comfortable experience left not wanting to return hence the review.
I was hesitating a bit about this place. Some of the reviews are mixed and i was worried it might be another hipster central restaurant. Turned out that wasn’t the case at all. Their gyozas are excellent. The best I’ve ever had in Melbourne. We ordered classic pork pan fried and prawn & ginger in chilli oil. The variety of shared dishes are also brilliant. We had the scallops which were fresh & beautiful. Agedashi tofu was delicious, especially with the sauce & the shittake mushrooms. Cauliflower tempura was deep fried goodness and made a great snack with beers or sake. Overall vibe was relaxed with great music and still attentive service even though we had to order at the register. I will be back again.
I really wanted to like this place as big gyoza lover.But taste was not outstanding. Ingredients inside of gyoza were too minced no texture. Not much difference they all taste similar. If they specialise one dish they need to be passionate about it. Spend more time to create better food if you charge a lot without making the space crazy look..
My favourite fashion forward venue that is interesting and beyond creative, try the tofu phone when you are in next. Great reason to leave the table and have a moment to yourself. I love the food, so many options as well as so many beautiful drinks, beautiful staff.
I had been really excited to try Chotto Motto, however it was a bit disappointing and did not live up to the hype. I ordered the dumplings in chilli oil, and they were served cold, they had not been cooked at all. When I brought this up with the waiter, he barely acknowledged me, and some new dumplings were brought out about 20 minutes later, with no apology or acknowledgement of their mistake. The cocktail I ordered was okay, a picture of it on their instagram makes it seem larger than it was, and it was served with no garnishes (as the picture shows). I thought the vibe was really cool, however we were sat on a shared table in a small nook, with no real view of the restaurant. I will try it again as the food (when cooked) was tasty. Did not wow me like I had expected.
