There’s a long rectangular patio and a window-service bar at Hotto Hotto, a casual ramen and teppanyaki spot in Grant Park, making it an easy choice for a low-key lunch in the sun or a great place to hang with your big group. The ramen here is fantastic. It’s rich with broth good enough to pour into a Stanley cup and drink. The Sapporo chicken ramen is a prime example of what this spot does well. It arrives in a massive bowl, filled with a silky, almost creamy broth and slices of well-seasoned chicken breast. If you’re not feeling soupy, the street ramen is a good brothless alternative, with the springy, garlic noodles doing most of the work. The menu’s wide, with a lot of satisfying options like the teppanyaki salmon, which flakes easily under a light teriyaki glaze. Add in the big drink menu with draft beers, sakes, and cocktails, and you’ve got a spot where everything falls into place for a good time.
