The story
The Friday Night Ramen ritual
Kato Ramen on S St Clair is where downtown Toledo gets honest-to-God 10/10 ramen on a Friday night. Duck shoyu is the featured bowl. Chashu Don holds its own. Bao buns open the meal. The room is small, fresh, and homey, and regulars plan their Fridays around the seat at the counter. Open at 11 most days.
