"Karazishi Botan is a neighborhood spot and then some. The ramen place on Smith Street has a lot of classics, like the signature Pan Head with pork and miso broth, or the Point Blank with pork-based shoyu broth. But they also have specials—like a chicken-based ramen that comes with a scoop of mashed potatoes and a shot glass of lemon on the side. (A pretty wild ride.) There's lots of counter seating, plus a spacious heated backyard, so come for a weeknight dinner that feels a little more exciting than usual." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, bryan kim, neha talreja, will hartman
