Tonchin means “a place to come together”, it was started in 1992 by brothers Katsuhiro and Motohiro Sugeno in Tokyo. The restaurant made its way to America via Anan Sugeno in 2017, with a flagship location in Manhattan. The restaurant has since expanded to L.A., Mexico City, Brooklyn, and (soon) Ohio. They’re known for their rich pork broths, daily handmade noodles, and elevated classic dishes.
