Anne Lac: This is the newer location in midtown west. ~ 1.5 blocks from original location- larger, less crowded, same food. Roast pork buns are a must. The mega ramen is sinfully good, but gut-bustingly huge.
Belle Huang: One of my favorite ramen spots in the city. The spicy ramen is where it's at. Make sure to add the seasoned boiled egg and get the pork buns.
Lasha: Totto has me coming back for ramen like no other ramen place. Chicken based broth is where it's at. The pork buns are great too, but pricey!

Michael Williams: The New Five Naps on the UWS has a brunch burger. Sloppy as hell! 10 oz sirloin, 2 0z canadian bacon and a sunny egg on a small brioche! Eat it with your hands and sicken the onlookers!!!
karen bonna rainert: I eat red meat, but when I come here I always get the veggie burger because it's so good. Filled with real veggies and grains. Get the special sauce on the side though. They put heeps of it on the bun

Ernesto Gutierrez: For appetizers the chicken curry puffs and the steamed beef buns. The nakorn-Patom duck noodles soup is superb, lots of flavor. I found the crab and pork dry noodles too plain in comparison.
Polina Weitz: Great food, all dishes were awesome, the bun is a must.
Rita Baltazar: Ratchaburi Crab & Pork Dry Noodles is delicious! Fried rice also. For starter try the Steamed Beef Buns.
