“ I enjoyed the house ramen. I was the first customer and got my ramen first and finished my food before all the other patrons got their food. Either I ate fast or the cook was slow. Ramen was perfect for me. It had a lot of green onions woodear, bean sprouts, 3 slices of pork, and one perfect soy sauce slightly undo yok, and ramen. I nearly drank all the brothl Normally I don't drink it all. It's a tiny place with 15 to 20 seats. ”
“ Ton ton is comfort food. While the wait can get quite long especially on Friday nights, the food is definitely worth it. My go to is the katsu curry with chicken katsu. The katsu is perfectly breaded and crispy while still being moist and juicy inside and the curry it's paired with has tons of depth and just the right amount of spice! I also really enjoy their karage appetizer :) Definitely check out Ton Ton is you are around Union Square! ”
“ For the price in sf it's good! The ramen was made to order. They take card and they also had beer and a lot of choices :) there's a bathroom. A lot of ramen and rice places to choose from and under $20.00. The waitress was also nice ”
“ Treated my mom out for dinner here. We got the chicken karaage curry over rice and a seafood noodle soup. The portions are very generous. The chicken karaage was crispy and juicy, and the curry was nicely balanced by the sprig of pickled radish on the side. We chose mild for the seafood soup and it was a nice kick (definitely more on the spicy side but it enhanced the broth well). The ladies serving us were super sweet and the food came out quickly. Very home-y feel to the place which we liked. ”
“ Came for lunch and was disappointed that they only offered sushi for dinner time. The restaurant was really warm (a little too hot) and so it could have been cooler to make our time there more comfortable. The waitress didn't seem too friendly (hardly ever smiled). For lunch, their menu consisted of ramen, bento boxes, and curry. I ordered the Tan Tan Ramen. The ramen was actually really good! The broth came out piping hot and the noodles were cooked al dente. The broth was very tasty with a spicy kick. The soft boiled egg was a little too cooked (I would have preferred it to be more jammy), but I did appreciate all the toppings like the ground pork, wood ear mushroom, green onions, and bean sprouts. It was overall a filling and enjoyable meal. ”
