A lively and fun pizzeria with also spectacular main dishes heralding from the Italian diaspora in New York, Motorino offers a great balance between down-to-earth good eating and a classy service and delivery.

And that’s not an easy balance to create – because you must be confident in the quality and deliciousness of what’s on the menu, so then the pretentiousness can be left aside and you simply deliver a class act.

You see, at Motorino, you take in one stride a beautifully decorated dining area,

and, wow!, you slam it with a super-yummy giant portion of New York’s finest spag and meatballs!

It was the kind of spaghetti dish that you not only finish, but you scrape up the sauce with bread to leave the plate clean!

Have another look at this spectacular pasta dish, because it is the real thing.

And we found this to be the central theme at Motorino…

A lovely ambiance,

backed up with Wow! arriving at the table!

Linguine alle Vongole – just superb!

And I’m not even talking about the presentation… I’m talking on the palate, where it counts.

There’s an al fresco outdoors section, too.

And scoot those salads right in front of me, please! Wow!

But isn’t Motorino a Pizzeria?

Yes, indeed – but I’ve been so amazed by the other dishes that I haven’t even gotten to covering Motorino’s main feature!

Professional pizza oven, excellent fresh ingredients, the know-how of the pizza team, and Motorino dishes out excellent pizza, in many options.

Extremely fresh mozzarella, in chunks

Also innovative with “New World” pizzas – these guys are from New York, after all!

For instance, a white pizza with smoked cheese, lightly salty, combined with the bitter aftertaste of rocket salad, and the sweetness of dates!

Loved it!

Motorino is also fully-licensed,

and you’ll be wowing all the way to dessert!

Overall, tucked away at the side of the JA Ocean View Hotel in JBR – which provides easy parking! – Motorino is a professional pizzeria that utilizes its spacious and pleasant ambiance to deliver Italian dishes and pizzas at a fantastic level of yumminess above what you’d expect from a pizzeria!
