Totto Ramen

This popular midtown staple (with locations in Hell’s Kitchen and Midtown East) is part of the city’s older ramen guard and maintains its street cred even after a decade in the game. Patrons frequent Totto for its bird-based broths laced with chicken fat richness, tangled with thin, wavy noodles. Bowls are minimalist-adorned, with nori, scallion, onion, char siu and wood ear mushrooms.
