I haven't tried any other ramen places in Cleveland because this has become my go-to. It's a great location for students in the area and *PRO TIP* there is free 2 hour parking across the street behind Constantino's! Enter the lot from 115th street. The restaurant itself is small with an artsy interior. They have purse hooks on the tables and bar seating for those eating alone.
The service is always great. Everyone is super friendly. There was a female cashier during one of my visits who enthusiastically chatted with me about the history of women's hairstyles in the Qing Dynasty. LOL. She's so adorable!!!!
Time for the food. I almost always get the pork belly ramen (#2), although today I got the miso ramen and added pork belly. I absolutely love pork belly- it's definitely a treat. Otani's pork belly is packed with umami flavor and oh so tender. You can never go wrong with #2. Today I tried it with miso broth, and it didn't taste as wonderful as it would in its original tonkotsu broth, but still delicious.
