Motto Grill & Steakhouse is a restaurant at 25 London Street in Paddington. Its warm dining room centres on grilled meat and steak, while a broad à la carte menu provides enough variety for mixed groups and celebrations.
Rib eye, fillet and other steak cuts are cooked to order and paired with sauces, chips and vegetable sides. Mixed grills and skewers add a more varied route through the charcoal cooked selection, with marinades and direct heat building savoury depth.
Seafood, burgers and pasta extend the kitchen beyond beef, while mezze style starters such as hummus, tabbouleh, kisir and tzatziki can begin a shared meal. Vegan and vegetarian dishes are clearly part of the offer rather than limited to simple accompaniments.
Wine and desserts make the restaurant suitable for a longer dinner, though the central Paddington location also works for a practical meal before travel. Motto is best for diners who want a generous grill menu with Mediterranean accents and flexible choices.
Address: 25 London Street, Paddington, London W2 1HH, England
