The best noodle shops in Spain, according to the experts: Eater has weighed in, and their honors are what rank this list. Chuka Ramen Bar comes out on top, and the good stuff runs deepest in Barcelona and Madrid.
-
Rank 1. Chuka Ramen Bar
Ramen Shop
A ramen bar tucked into Madrid's Literary Quarter, where the chef brought serious New York kitchen time to a menu that leans hard on umami. Three rotating ramens anchor the list, with a brothless option always among them, and the baos and eggplant mapo hold their own alongside the main event. The room fills fast, and walk-ins rarely find a seat, so booking ahead is the move rather than the gamble.

Rank 1. Shoronpo GRACIA 小籠包
Japanese Noodle Shop
A ramen and soup dumpling shop in Gràcia where the shoronpo, the Japanese take on xiaolongbao, come stuffed with everything from classic minced pork to foie gras to chocolate with olive oil and sea salt. The tantanmen, a sesame-laced, creamy chicken broth with ground pork and springy noodles, draws a devoted following. Ten ramen varieties are on offer, with vegetarian options among them. Book online; walk-ins are optimistic at best.
