Futo Buta is one of my favorite ramen joints in Charlotte. I love that I can swap broths (since I don't usually like the meat-based stock) and the service is always top-notch. I've had the same waitress at least three times and she is amazing! She always remembers me and shares new specials or any changes to the menu in case I want to switch things up. I usually try to go at odd hours, not peak dinner or lunch times, because it does get very crowded and very loud.
