Reviews for Totto Ramen in Somerville, MA

Great location and lighting but the food was not worth it. Our first time getting take out was horrible but we thought dine in... would be better. Dine in was subpar. Our appetizer was falling apart and one bite in, it completely crumbled to our plate. Firstbite of ramen was ok but it got boring really fast. The meat was too thickly sliced making it difficult to enjoy. Roomtemperatured water on a hot day, probably trying to get you to purchase a soft drink instead. There are definitely better ramenplaces in surrounding areas especially given the steep price. Would not recommend going here. Read more

I was craving chicken karage, and remembered that this place had it. Went, the menu no longer has it... sad. But, they had fried... chicken! And it was very good. They came out as tenders that were fried, juicy, crispy, and well seasoned. Freshly fried toorder too! Their ramen is also not bad, which is a plus! The staff is very friendly. Read more

Very nice atmosphere. And good ramen but not the best Ramen I had. However, I highly recommend their avocado tuna appetizer. It... was OUT OF THIS WORD PERFECT. An also an excellent customer service. I will for sure go back. Read more

This is our second time here and food was not as good as it was. Surprisingly the ramen was missing seasoning, noodles were way... too soft and appetizer was just ok. Clearly understaffed as the poor waitress struggled to serve everyone even if the restaurantwas not full. Read more

Not sure why this is such a hit with local guides, but this ramen was pretty average, made worse by the prices. $17 for a small... bowl of ramen is a bit silly, not to mention budget house sake that tasted like moonshine. My soup broth started to skin as Iate it because it was served too cold. The noodles were... fine, but on par with refrigerated ramen noodles from the store. The pork was tough and dense, characteristic of being frozen and reheated. Read more

Pork buns were missing a sauce. Spicy ramen was super spicy. All I could taste was pepper. Was actually the spiciest ramen I?ve... ever had. Food was served super quick. Prices were fair for the area. Would go back. Read more

This is my 2nd try at Totto. I came here about 3 years ago and I was not impressed, but something changed for me this time... around. I like how the noodles are cooked, not too soggy but not too hard. The braised pork belly was impressive as well and wasa nice pairing to the broth. Personally I would want less bean sprout in my bowl. The takoyaki is a bit small but very bitesize. The spicy fried squid was bomb dot com with the dipping sauce *chef kiss* Read more

This ramen house uses very flavorful broth which I loved it so much. The ingredients' proportion was ideal and what I impressed... was scallion and meat were so fresh and tender. You can choose the option between chicken and pork to put on the top of thedish. And I highly recommend you to eat with pork. It was great. Read more
