groups & parties

We host. You party.

If you have a milestone birthday or anniversary coming up soon, you want to have it at a venue that can accommodate all of your guests with great food and drink. At moto-i in Minneapolis, we would love to host your next event in one of our private areas, and as a Japanese restaurant and sake bar, we can provide amazing food and beverages all night long! We have three distinct event spaces to choose from, and we look forward to explaining the advantages of each one.
