The 11 Best Ramen Spots In America - The Infatuation

"There’s a perpetual line in front of Mensho Tokyo in SF, but it's one of the few places worth giving up an hour (or more) of your evening to wait. Their ramen with housemade noodles is the best in the city. The creamy and umami-packed chicken-based broth alone will single-handedly make you black out whatever time you spent standing outside. There are a handful of options, including soupless mazesoba and a version incorporating matcha. Go with the orange-tinted spicy lamb or tori paitan with chashu that you can barely pick up without falling apart." - anne cruz
