Why Diners Choose Motto Motto at Gasworks Plaza

Fast, flexible Japanese dining and crafted sweets tailored to the Gasworks lifestyle.

  • Portion-Sized Mini Rice Bowls for Quick Post-Workout Fuel

    Smaller, high-protein portions like the $8 fish or chicken mini bowls let diners recharge quickly after exercise without being weighed down by a full-sized feast.

    Came here after a run and it was the perfect post-workout meal! We shared a mini bowl for $8 — incredible value.

  • Value-Driven Weekly Specials Gated via the Mobile App

    Regular weekly incentives like 2-for-1 miso ramen reward mobile app users, providing an economical way to enjoy hot noodle bowls on busy weekdays.

    I’ve been coming to this place every Monday for their 2-for-1 miso ramen (available only on their app) and always have them add red paste for an extra kick of spice.

  • Effortless Dining Break Between Everyday Appointments

    Positioned directly inside the bustling Gasworks concourse, Motto Motto offers a rapid, full-flavoured sit-down option that fits neatly between schedule commitments.

    What began as a quick lunch stop between appointments turned into one of the more enjoyable meals of the day.

  • Convenient Mid-Precinct Stop Paired with Groceries and Errands

    Located steps from grocery and retail hubs, the venue functions as a frictionless rest stop to grab quick ramen or curry during shopping routines.

    This place is a good stop before or after groceries run

  • Signature Matcha Soft Serve with Textured Toppings

    The dessert program elevates the fast-casual experience with dense, earthy matcha soft serve garnished with crunchy matcha pieces and custom branded tableware.

    Loved the little matcha pieces on top for that extra crunch and intensity. The wooden spoon with the Motto branding was a cute touch too.

  • Casual Japanese Staples Finished with a Distinctive Sweet Treat

    Guests can seamlessly combine savoury staple comfort foods like tonkotsu ramen with indulgent artisan sweets in a single fast-casual visit.

    Had the basic Tonkatsu Ramen with a Matcha Soft Serve. Definitely one of the better ramen bowls I've had, and the staff were super friendly as well.

  • Chicken Katsu

    Their chicken katsu is also 10/10 so crispy and fresh and not processed chicken.

  • Salmon Donburi

    The salmon slices were fresh, tender, and beautifully presented over the rice. The portion size was generous, and the balance with avocado and roe added a nice texture and flavor contrast.

  • Matcha Soft Serve

    The flavour was spot-on: rich, earthy matcha without any bitterness, perfectly balanced with a subtle sweetness that kept me going back for more.

  • Prawn Sando

    The sando arrived generously filled with five full sized tempura prawns, each coated in a light crisp batter that retained its crunch.

  • Fish Mini Bowl

    I had the fish mini bowl and my friend had the chicken one, both delicious and so fresh. Healthy, tasty and great service.

  • Lychee Tea

    My lychee tea was sweet, fruity and refreshing. On a humid Brisbane afternoon it was exactly the right choice and paired nicely with the richness of the tempura prawns.
