At Horse Meat & Oyster Creative Bistro – motto., you can enjoy horse meat, oysters, and inventive cuisine.

Our oysters are sourced from the Japan Oyster Center, ensuring not only rich flavor but also the highest level of safety—meeting standards even stricter than national regulations. At motto., we are deeply committed to both taste and peace of mind. Packed with minerals and gentle on the body, our oysters can be enjoyed raw, grilled, or with our creative culinary twists.

We offer a wide variety of fresh horse meat delivered straight from farms in Kumamoto, including rare cuts such as horse liver and heart. These popular items have been making waves on social media for their unique flavor and freshness.

Enjoy them sashimi-style or through our original creative dishes—flavors you can only find here.

Our à la carte selections are more than just sides—they’re the stars of the show. From our popular ajillo (garlic shrimp in olive oil) to expertly crafted pastas, each dish reflects the chef’s playful creativity and refined skill. Among them, our signature Oyster Gyoza stands out as a one-of-a-kind creation you won’t find anywhere else. The more you try, the more you’ll fall in love—that’s one of the many charms of dining at motto.
