Serious Eats: Totto Ramen's specialty of chicken ramen might sound mild, but their chicken broth is as rich and creamy as the best pork broth.
Dom Wong: Having been to Ippudo and Ramen-Ya in the past week, Totto Ramen ranked third. I found the noodles were a bit undercooked, some people may prefer this. The chicken broth was nice and not too salty.
Eater: Home to some of the city’s best paitan ramen, a tonkotsu-like preparation that involves a chicken broth so opaque with fat it nearly takes on the appearance of New England clam chowder. Read more.
