Mōtōneko Café Izakaya - Sarasota

This is a smaller place, 10 of Us showed up for dinner. We were all bowled away how great the food was. And with all of us it took a little bit of time but all our meals came out together and hot. Great job

Went to have a nice bowl of ramen with my lady today at 2 and lo and behold they are closed despite having hours all day. Sign say they would be back in a hour. Sound reasonable sure why they don't have the owner or another worked but supplies while the place is open I can understand. Don't have hours and then just make your own really bad for your customers when they are not back by the time I don't wanna sit around for 2+ hours just for some ramen...

I just found this place, awesome interior and friendly staff. I came on a Saturday afternoon and it was empty, ordered a coffee which was excellent! Comfortable furniture, good background music. I’ll definitely be back for some ramen with my wife or by myself sometime for a coffee and some relax time. Owners? Great job!!

Tasted good. But I'm pretty sure it's just instant Raman. There's no actual kitchen.

The ramen here was a big surprise. For the price, I'm willing to say it's the best ramen in town! I wouldn't get the options with protein next time I come though, the meat was very sour(vinegary) and wasn't to my liking. But make sure you add another softboiled egg, they are so good! The drip coffee was also good, didn't taste watery or anything like that but they don't do free refills. I also enjoyed the anime playing on their big screen TV and the motoneko manga wall art. If I lived in the area I would hang out at this Cafe with my friends all the time.
