The real deal!
Totto Ramen is amazing. The wait was long and crowded but the hostess was very organized and polite. She sat my friend and me at the bar which turned out to be an awesome place to sit because the chef behind the counter treated us great, filling my glass to the brim with hot sake, serving our food piping hot, and giving me a giant heap of fresh scallions when Iasked for a side of it. Really a giant heap, btw, so worth the extra 50 cents or whatever it was. The pork broth was so flavorful and delicious and the ramen tasted so fresh and was cooked perfectly. Very authentic and worth the wait. Such a great deal too!

Nothing comes close
The queue can get a little frustrating, as the place itself is very small. However, there is no other ramen joint in the city that comes close to totto. Everything on the menu is good (yes, i have had everything on the menu), the chashu is the absolute best part of the meal. The chashu is simply unbeatable. You get 2 pieces in the ramen. I recommend asking for it on the side. They char it with a torch giving it a smoky flavor that gets washed away if you put it in the soup. Also, the chashu mayodon (rice, chashu, yuzu mayo, and scallions) is probably the greatest dish on the entire menu. Feel free to order more chashu if you think the rice to pork ratio is off. As a side note, i recommend the wavy noodles. the straight noodles are a little soggy for me. Wavy are more al dente.

Very Good
Char Sui (slices of BBQ Pork) App was amazing and only $4.50. Ramen soup was very good. I would go back. Funky cool place, servers are great. Not sure it's worth waiting for when the line is crazy but it's a good place to go.

Fantastic Experience
Aside from the unusual waitlist posted on the door the experience was incredible. Our server was professional with a great personality. The Tuna Avo is a must for an appetizer. The ramon was flavorful and filling. Worth the wait as many people already know.

Ramen that rocks
Only 2 reviews here!? This place usually has a line waiting to get in it's so special. Although there isn't a overabundance of broth the broth is absolutely delicious, fresh and tasty. It's not a porky broth, based on chicken, quite a change from most ramen shops. It's a hole in the wall, like they just barely fitted the kitchen equipment in there. You can sit at the counter & watch the guys (so sweet and extremely nice!) blow torch the slices of pork. An unexpected surprise: the tuna slices on rice, what a fantastic dish for only $4.50! Totto Ramen is really neat.
