Restaurants Mystery at Lenox and Cheshire Bridge roads
Posted by Cliff Bostock @cliffbostock on Mon, Dec 21, 2009 at 2:16 AM
Does anyone have the scoop on Moto Bistro and Bar? It's the latest name to go on the constantly changing building at Lenox Road's southern intersection with Cheshire Bridge Road.
The tiny building has been vacant (except for homeless squatters) for quite a while. It was -- 20 years ago -- home to one of the city's original Vietnamese spots. I used to go there regularly alone during my second stint as editor of Creative Loafing and devour the kitchen's clay-pot dishes, the best I have ever tasted.
I don't think any tenant since then has lasted more than a few years. Renovations on the building began about six months ago.

I think it's owned by the same people as Bamboo Luau. Over the summer someone there told me the same owner planned to open a new spot there. I still saw the "no trespassing" sign in the window so not sure if it's open yet!
