I've been to Motte three times now, and whenever I think it can't get any better, it does. The service is top tier, the staff are all so welcoming, professional and friendly. It must be a testament to the owners because everyone seems genuinely happy to work there. The food is AMAZING. I've tried so many things on the menu, and you really can't go wrong. My son loves the burger from the kids' menu, which is the most delicious and carefully crafted kids burger I've ever seen. Usually, the stuff on the kids' menus is lackluster but not at motte. They go above and beyond for even their smallest diners. Even the bathroom sinks are kid friendly! The ambiance is gorgeous, and the way they have everything set up is so glamorous yet welcoming. You can tell they paid attention to every detail. Its so rare for one place to be perfect for an intimate date night, a family dinner, or even a big celebration, but somehow they found that balance perfectly. This place is a true hidden gem, and you would be doing yourself a disservice to not stop by.
I rarely write reviews, but this place absolutely deserved one. The atmosphere, vibe, music, and seating were all a wow for me. Everything felt thoughtfully done. The food was fantastic and the drinks were just as good — definitely order a bottle of Soohari. I met friends here for a small birthday dinner, and even 2–3 days later I’m still talking about how much I enjoyed it. Highly recommend. Bonus: parking is spacious and easy, even for larger vehicles.
Pretty awesome spot that deserves way more attention! The food here was amazing! Great fusion between Korean and American cuisines. Moody, industrial vibe with vintage brick walls and lighting. Bulgogi pizza was delicious. Chicken wings were great, fresher and more flavorful than Bonchon. Owner is on-site and is attentive to guests which is a plus! They also have an extensive drink menu. Sad that they only open in the evenings. Creme brûlée was on point.
We came here with my parents last weekend, hoping for something special and delicious, and this place totally delivered. Everyone loved it! We had the bossam, hot stone bibimbap, Motte fried chicken, yuringi, soft tofu, and fried squid. Every dish tasted super fresh and thoughtfully made. We kept stopping mid-bite just to say, “Wow, this is so good.” The fried stuff stayed crispy forever (seriously impressive), and all the sauces and seasonings were next-level. Even the side dishes were amazing! Honestly, I could eat everything we had every day, and now I just want to come back and try the rest of the menu. Can’t recommend this place enough.
Pricey but good. The pizza was surprisingly delicious, not that I thought it would be bad, just didn’t expect an Asian-American fusion spot to be so tasty. Nice ambiance, would recommend visiting.
Hidden gem 💎 I'll definitely be back to dine. Was working an event there but as a business owner observation is your second nature. I watched the servers who were awesome, open buffet for the event so I got to taste their delicious well presented food, the owners were hands on working diligently with their staff and the vibe is really nice and relaxed!!! Definitely worth a try! 😃
Derin was an amazing waiter! He was very attentive, friendly, and made sure everything was perfect throughout the meal. Our drinks stayed full, the food came out quickly, and he had a great attitude the whole time. You can tell he really cares about giving great service. I would definitely ask for Derin again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Restaurant and bar in an exposed brick building with a wacky layout. Classic Baltimore vibes done up in a modern aesthetic. The mix of Korean food and American fare seemed odd but is done fairly well. The Spicy Chicken Ttekbokki was great. The spicy has a great kick and the noodles(technically a rice cake) are tasty and unique. Wifey ordered the short rib sliders and they were fine and the fries are a bit thicker cut than shoe strong fries which makes for a good balance of soft inside and crispy outside. Had a fun time here and I really liked the Korean food. They have a park lot and I loved that as well.
Amazing food and great portions! My family and I tried out the Motte Restaurant for the first time and we had a wonderful experience. All the dishes were delicious and seasoned to perfection. For our starters, we got the Motte wings, fried squid, and brussels sprout. They were a great combination of savory flavor and crispy texture. We ordered the Hot N Sweet Shrimp pizza and spicy chicken tteokbokki for the main, both of which highlighted the freshness of the ingredients. I would absolutely recommend the pizza. The flavors were on point and deliciously topped with high quality toppings. To finish our meal, we had the banana milk ice cream, a 10/10 dessert unlike anything I’ve ever tried. Its smooth consistency and perfectly balanced sweetness made it a memorable ending to the meal. The atmosphere of the restaurant was wonderful; the interior design and the lighting fixtures particularly stood out. The service was amazing, and we had a very pleasant experience thanks to the friendly and attentive staff. The service was not only warm but also efficient, with our dishes arriving promptly. The owners were incredibly welcoming, adding a personal touch that made the dining experience feel even more inviting. We will definitely be back and I highly recommend for those in the area!
The internet raved about the food and I wasExcited to find the hype is real and worth it. Everything was flavorful. I wish the shrimp balls came with just a bit more sauce and a bit less pepper but that's personalI loooved the pork dumplings, they weremore like small empanadas from how stuffed they are with meat and veggies flavored to perfection. I also enjoyed the bulgogi, perfect portioning, the meat was soft and sweat but still savory too. I had the chocolate bread pudding and it was a marvelous way to indulge in the end of a filling meal, satisfying my tummy and my soul very deeply. I will happily return when in the area.
