Italian for “motion” and the commonly used term for motorcycle or scooter, the word moto has been selected as a moniker for this cultural icon of Italian life. Paying homage to our warehouse location’s former life as a mechanics’ shop on MStreet in the Gulch, Moto Cucina + Enoteca’s design reflects the free spirit and gritty glamour associated with the Italian moto motif.

Moto features inspired rustic-modern Italian cuisine. Moto's menu is a contemporary approach to authentic Italian cooking that utilizes product consciously sourced from local farms and artisans balanced by premium product imported from Italy.

A large bar and lounge area welcomes guests into its ‘enoteca’ inspired environment where wine is king. Moto features over 30 ever-changing wines by the glass and 250 labels in total.

First thing's first...the hosts. Very pleasant ladies but here's the thing, when you book a 6:30 dinner reservation, ask to wait for a booth (and put booth on reservation notes), arrive at 5:30 to enjoy cocktails prior to dinner AND specifically tell the hosts that you're having cocktails first, PLEASE DON'T bother us every 10 minutes to be seated especially when what we want - a booth - won't be ready for a while! Um, my reservation isn't for another hour? I put notes in my reservation for a reason. I stop to speak with you at length for a reason. I cannot tell you how frustrating the first part of our visit was due to all of this! I know, I sound incredibly nasty and I don't mean to, but this was honestly the pushiest set of hosts I've ever dealt with and it had to be mentioned! But I digress… We ended up sitting at the bar for dinner as I'd had enough with worrying about a booth that quite frankly was never going to happen. The bar staff was great! Very helpful, very knowledgeable and extremely efficient. We loved the chili oil that was offered with the focaccia bread…YUM! My husband and I shared a bottle of the Martin Ray Reserve Cab, along with the black Spaghetti and the sausage/chili/honey pizza. I wasn’t crazy about the onions on the pizza so next time we’ll order without, but the rest of pizza was delicious. Just enough crisp on the bottom, yet crust was airy and flavorful as were the cheese and sausage. I was a bit bummed about the portion size of the spaghetti for the price, but it was spicy, shrimp were cooked perfectly, pasta was al dente and just SO VERY tasty! Again, can’t say enough about the bar staff who never stopped the great service even though the bar was slammed! Perhaps we’ll try again for that booth another night, but in the meantime, kudos to the bar and the chefs! Mangia!

Our server was top notch! Some of the prices were a little exuberant for the quality and quantity of the food, however the service made up for it.

This place was horrible italian. Fake, overly cooked cacio e pepe and burnt asparagus and Brussels sprouts. I recommend going elsewhere.
