Very nice atmosphere and good ramen but not the best ramen I've had. I ordered the Paitan Ramen ($17). The ramen broth feels unique to Totto compared to other ramens I've had. I personally found the broth and chashu a bit under-seasoned. Not terrible, just not the deeply umami flavors I've come to expect from a pork ramen. The service was great, and the employees are respectful and helpful. We're grateful that they offer dog friendly outdoor seating, which was clean and comfortable. They're also located right by the Artisan East Parking Garage, which offers up to 3 hours of free parking. Overall, it was a good visit that "scratches the itch" for ramen.

I love ramen and this place kinda traumatized me Spicy miso -reg miso but with spicy paste you mixed in yourself. It was more like a salty bean paste so I was confused Gyudon-watery rice, liquid pooling on bottom from rice, cucumber, and pickled onion juice Chicken Paitan -so incredibly mid bad even, Pork bao-had reg mayo instead of kewpie (I think) it was strange

Obviously one of the trendiest and tastiest ramens you'll ever get in the area. The interior is nicely decorated and the ambiance is very casual and chill. Service was great, they were very attentive and our food came fast. I got the Spicy Paitan Ramen and I wanted it really spicy so this definitely satisfied my cravings! Lots of thick fresh noodles and I enjoy the thick slices of pork! Pork was nicely marinated and I really like the flavor from torching it. I also ordered a kid ramen for my sister but it is just noodles and soup for like $9 and I would like to see some meat in there for that price.Overall, a good place for good ramen, good vibes, and good service.

I came here because a friend of mine recommended it. It's located in a large outdoor shopping outlet with many eateries, so we settled on this because I haven't had ramen in many months. The menu is small which is great because it means the food is probably of high quality. The layout is nice and our server was on top of everything. It's quite expensive however, but given how touristy the area is it didn't surprise me. I got the spicy ramen with chicken and had them add fried garlic. It definitely brought the heat and everything was delicious all around. My only complaint was the chicken, which was tough and lacked flavor by itself.

Came here on a rainy day, place was busy with one waitstaff person. We were seated right away, water brought to table. Shortly thereafter drink orders taken. When the drinks came back we placed an order for appetizers and our entrees. The appetizer was fried veggie gyoza. 6 pieces and totally yummy. Really good crunch and flavor. Entrees up next -- she had the fried chicken ramen and I the veggie ramen. She loved her food and I mine. The portions are huge and delicious.Even though there was one wait person she was amazing. Smart and cheerful. Highly recommend Totto Ramen.

I love having a real ramen restaurant in Assembly Row! I've been coming here for years and it is so good! I like how the menu is straightforward with just a couple options. The noodles are wicked filling and delicious. The restaurant itself is small but it works for what this location is; an intimate ramen restaurant where you won't plan to spend a long time at. The service is fast and you'll be in and out much faster than a typical restaurant. They do serve alcohol here if you are wondering! Overall I would recommend this restaurant for single customers or couples. Don't come as a crowd. It's a nice small restaurant vibe and it works well!

One of very few places that serves chicken broth-based ramen- yay! Even the plain kids' ramen was very flavorful. We also enjoyed the chicken curry ramen, chicken bun, and karaage chicken tenders. Small dining area with mostly tables for two, so come early if you're a larger group. We were here a couple days post Xmas, so might be busier than usual and understaffed (only one server on the floor). We'll plan to come back!

The Ramen is not authentic and it doesn't taste good. The chefs tried to innovate with their house specials but I don't know if you can call it Ramen. It just tastes weird all around. The meat is not tender and they put a lot of bean sprouts. Not my favorite.

Small menu but has all the popular Korean/Japanese options like Korean fried chicken, pork buns and ramen. I got the Spicy Paitan Ramen, which was OK because I have had much better - sorry but it is very hard to beat Philly's Terakawa Ramen. It wasn't spicy enough for me to feel the heat. We also tried their Curry Ramen, it was mildly flavored and had no heat. Overall just okay and hope they can work on their flavors a bit more.

Ramen was always just okay here. But it has gotten so much worse since my last visit. THEY DONT EVEN TOAST THE CHASHU PORK WITH A TORCH ANYMORE?! I got my ramen and noticed the pork wasn't torched, not only that it was ice cold. So I thought they forgot but I was informed they do not toast the pork anymore One of the main parts of traditional ramen is the pork. The rest of the ramen is just okay at most. I wouldn't waste my time or money here again way better ramen spots through out Cambridge and Boston
