Heard about this place for a while now and finally gave it a try. They definitely lived up to the hype! The place is clean and cozy with attentive staff who also speak English. The ramen was delicious and so was the fried chicken (kaaguri). Prices were excellent as well. I really enjoyed this place a lot!
(Jan 2020) One of the best ramen I've ever had (haven't been to Japan yet). The wait time was extremely longn, but worth it!! I tried their dry ramen (no soup) and my sister had a regular one. Both were incredibly delicious! A must when in Madrid! Uno de los mejores ramen que he probado, no se van a arrepentir.
Very overhyped in my opinion. They recently took off all spicy items on their menu as well so there's that. Thankfully I was seated right away since I arrived right when they opened for dinner (8:30pm). The chicken karaage appetizer was a 8/10. It was super crispy and was fresh out of the fryer. The edamame was mediocre and it could've been fresher. Lastly, the tonkatsu ramen was lackluster. The egg was very salty but still marinated well. The chasu was tough to chew, and the noodles weren't amazing. The broth itself lacked flavor. Keep in mind I've tried many bowls of ramen around the US and Japan so I could just be picky, but honestly the hype surrounding this place ruined it for me.
Madrid never disappoints! Ramen Kagura is a stunningly affordable ramen joint with great food and a nice, casual atmosphere. My friend and I tried to go to Ramen Kagura for dinner on a Friday night (it's his favorite ramen join in the city), but there was such a long line that I decided to come back a few days later. On my second attempt, I arrived ten minutes before opening to avoid any wait, and was still about the fifth in line (!). We were seated right around 1pm. The restaurant has a nice interior, with a back room and a good amount of seating. Since I was dining alone, I was seated at the bar. I ordered the lunch set meal, which is an insanely good deal: 9 euros for a beer, 3 pieces of gyoza, a full bowl of ramen, AND dessert. The service was prompt, and the food was very good. I ordered the shio ramen. The broth was silky and delicious and the chashu tender and well-cooked. It's a big portion, too! The gyoza was tasty, pretty standard, and I had black sesame ice cream for dessert -- a little watery but not bad. This is a great stop for lunch. The price point is unbeatable, especially given the quality of the food.
I stayed in a hostel across from Ramen Kagura, and I noticed there was a line out the door EVERY single day! Luckily, I dined in towards the end of the night on a raining day, so there wasn't a wait. The hostess spoke English so it was easy to communicate. The front of the restaurant is quite narrow which is more suitable for parties under 4, but they do have seats in the back too! I ordered the Tantanmen. Loved the flavors. I'm not a ramen connoisseur, but I have to say, this tasted better than some of the ramen bowls I've had in South SF. One thing I wish my bowl had less and more of - more spice (on a level of 1-5, I'd give it a 1. Then again, I eat a lot spice sooo...) and lastly, less salt. Although it was flavorful, the soup had too much sodium in my opinion. Overall, I enjoyed the soup! If you're looking for something Asian then go here! Look for the restaurant with a pig sign. :)
Having lived in places where amazing ramen is easily accessible, I have to say that Ramen Kagura isn't the best ramen that I've had in my life. But it is far from the worst ramen. In fact, Ramen Kagura is actually good ramen, especially considering it's in Madrid, a city in which you wouldn't normally expect to find good ramen. I came here during lunchtime, and the wait wasn't too long. I liked that they had waiters and waitresses who spoke multiple languages, so they could help you out in a lot of different languages. The ramen here was also very cheap, especially if you get the sets. The only part I was sad about was that they forgot to include the egg in my ramen! But it was a great experience, and I would definitely return (over and over again)!
Ramen done right. You know a place is good when you need a reservation on a Wednesday night and the place is packed with Japanese people slurping it up (& you should slurp- it's polite). There are three types of ramen broth you can order (salty, soy, and ??). I tried the salt and soy ones and liked both. I ordered the salt one and the broth had a lemon-tang as well. I've never had ramen with lemon before. I also had the salmon sushi and it was very simple, but very good. Service was quick and the place is cute and well-run.
Ramen Kagura is THE BEST ramen I've ever tasted in my life. I live in New York and even the ramen in New York cannot compare to Kagura. I tried three types of ramen here, the Tonkotsu soja (pork broth), Tantanmen (spicy ramen), and Tonkotsu Carabinero Ramen (pork broth with seafood sauce). I enjoyed the seafood ramen the most out of the three since it had such a rich seafood taste that was so sweet and made the ramen noodles taste even better. All members of our party ordered the Menu Del Dia which came with 3 gyozas, a drink, a ramen and your choice of dessert (coffee jelly, green tea or sesame ice cream or strawberry panna cotta- which they call cheesecake.) We ordered the 400 grams of ramen which was A LOT of food, so I suggest if you're super hungry then 400g will fill you up but you could have ordered 200 grams of ramen and still be super full. Overall THE BEST RAMEN I'VE EVER HAD in my life. It says something! Fun fact: the restaurant is officially accredited as an authentic Japanese restaurant by the General Incorporated Association; it's LEGIT af.
Visited Madrid on a rainy weekend so we were in search for soup! We were happy to find a few ramen places in Madrid and decided to go with this one. Once again, yelp always comes through! Location: it is about a 5 minute walk from the Opera train stop. Easy to find! Interior: can seat 45 customers ..either come early before opening or later when the lunch/dinner rush has stopped. We arrived at about 745pm and there was already about 20 people in line. Service: staff here are awesome. They stopped by our table about 5 times to ask if we were doing ok. Food: what i love about this place is that you have 3 options of ramen serving sizes to choose from - 100g, 200g, and 400g. If you are a light eater or if you ordering other food besides ramen, the 100g is a perfect portion! My husband and i both tried the tonkatsu miso and it did not disappoint. The pork slices were tender and just the right amount of "juicyness" to it. The noodles were cooked just right, not too mushy or too hard. The egg was prepared well, not under or over done. Hubs got the 200g and i got 100g and we were both happy with our servings. Also, the broth didn't leave you feeling like you needed to drink a gallon of water - it wasn't salty at all! We also got the chicken karaage and a side of white rice. The portions were fairly big and were not dry. Definitely hit the spot with the chicken. Prices, food, staff - all awesome. We will definitely come Back if we are in
We were at a nearby thrift store, Aramayo, whereby the long line to this restaurant caught my eye. I happened to then pick up some food for takeout. I got fried rice for 5.8 Euro, and a large Tonkotsu Shio ramen for 9.8 and a large maki dragon eel with avocado 8 piece roll for 9.8. The ramen was fantastic and I liked how they packed the broth in a separate container and everything in the ramen just hit the right note. Not salty at all too. The fried rice was also a lovely dish. The rice wasn't clumpy at all and it has its fair share of vegy and meat protein. The only dish that was just so so was the sushi roll. It wasn't all that bad but didn't hit it out of the park. Overall, it was pretty good and I felt I got a good value for the money. Definitely a long line for this place so if you are eating in, be sure to come early.
I got the tonkatsu ramen. I think Madrid has won in the food category. Everything I've had so far during my visit did not disappoint. It's very rare that Asian food is good in a foreign country, but i gotta say, this place def hit the spot for me. The chicken was delicious as well. The broth for the ramen was rich, flavorful and delicious. The pork slices were tender but i can do with just one slice. But they were being generous, can't complain. The chicken, chunky pieces, and comes with a lot. Batter was light. We also got a curry dish for the table to try, cause, why not? The sauce was a bit thick, and not warm enough. I'd prefer it a little hotter. But overall, if you have a craving for soup in a foreign location, maybe this is a spot to try.
Yesss, a ramen place!!! My friend and I wanted ramen because a. It's delicious and b. It's getting chilly out. We got this recommendation through some Japanese classmates, so we thought it had to be good! We got there about an hour after opening (9:30pm), and there was a line. We waited maybe for about 30 minutes so it wasn't terrible. We also chose to sit at a bar..that may have helped. The variety isn't the most vast, but they have a vegetarian miso one! There are three portion sizes that are fairly priced. What we didn't get were any starters bc they didn't seem worth it. For example, an edamame was about 4€.... Anywho! My friend and I got the miso and it was yums and flavorful. My egg was cooked great, but my friends egg was over done. The pork (2 pieces) were pretty fatty. And I thought the noodles were cooked well. Overall, we're ready to go back! Nom nom nom. Ps: Kinda neat but also kinda gross..they have free hair ties for ladies. The downfall? They're reused ones. So hmm..yeah, up to you!
One of the first nights in Madrid my wife and I walked past this restaurant. There was a line out the door that went back pretty far so we thought this place must be good right? We looked it up and saw the reviews and decided to go the next day when it opened. 1pm and there was a line formed just waiting to get in. Let me just say this place was worth the wait. Get there early because this place is packed especially on the weekend. I got the tonkatsu miso ramen and it was hands down one of the best ramens I've ever had. Who knew it would be in Spain of all places! I highly recommend this place. You won't be disappointed.

The Ramen here is amazing! First, the texture of the Ramen is really good I got the vegetarian miso and I like the broth although it's on the salty side but if you sip it and then accompany it with a bite of the Ramen, it makes it a good combination. Then the takoyaki was our favorite because of a great balance of texture and amazing umami flavor! read more
This place is a hit for my family who were craving Asian food on our third week of Europe. We went during opening time of dinner around 8:30 pm and the place filled up quick. The fried rice was a hit because we had to order round 2 of it. The ramen is good. This is a chain with 12 restraints and over 9K reviews of Google. So it is legit! Casual and quick service. read more
Was tired of eating Spanish tapas so decided to look for ramen on a cold winters night. Honestly, not the best ramen I've ever ha liked but it's also not the worst. I'd say it's pretty mid in taste, but I can't really blame them since this is in the middle of Spain. I do appreciate the service. There was paper stuck on the gyoza and they took it back and gave us extras . read more

The line was so long for this one, but the food was worth the wait!! I ordered one Tonkotsu Miso Ramen and one Gyoza dish and I couldn't be more satisfied. Even though I have had miso ramen in Japan before (where the broth was much saltier for the authentic Japanese taste), Kagura's broth has a very suitable balance for foreigners like me. The chashu in the ramen was very tasty. I ordered a small bowl and I wish I had ordered a medium bowl instead because the ramen was so tasty Gyoza was yummy and the filling was just right. Would definitely come back if i visit Madrid again read more

Amazing ramen in Madrid! We had to wait for about fifteen minutes and then our food came out about fifteen minutes later. We all the got the tonkatsu with miso broth and it was great! It was creamy and flavorful, very well done. It was comforting and simple. Also, only about €8-€10 euros. I think I'm going to make this my new go-to easy place! read more

HOLY CRAP! Did I really find a 5 star ramen joint in Madrid? Really?? Yes, honey! And it was very delicious! I had seen Ramen Kagura on my way to the market and couldn't help but see a long line wrapped around the building. After I quickly noticed it was a ramen joint, I turned around and stood in line. A 45 min wait was VERY hard for me to do, but it was totally worth it! If you want to avoid the long lines I would encourage you to come as soon as they open or before they close. The restaurant has two levels but it's very popular, and gets crowded easily! I couldn't help but appreciate their reasonable prices. You get ramen, gyoza, dessert and any drink for less than 10€! You can't beat that!! The ramen comes in two sizes: 200grs or 400grs. Honestly, I ordered the 200grs and with all the other food I received it was more than enough. I ordered the Miso Tonkotsu ramen with a glass of wine! Sounds weird to say, but trust me it was delicious! The ramen was piping hot and flavorful! With no shame, I slurped it up with pride baby! Living in California where everyone and their momma opened up a ramen restaurant, I definitely know good ramen when I taste some! This joint right here was off the chain! Customer service was great! I had a lovely lady that took my order and continuously checked in with me despite how busy they were. Once I was complete, I walked up to the cashier and paid! I would surely recommend this ramen restaurant who is craving done delicious and tasty ramen on a cold day. The prices are affordable, food is delicious and customer service is fantastic! 5 stars indeed! read more

So this place opens@830. We showed up at 8 because we got the time wrong. We went into the shops next door to it and when we came out there was a line. There was one waiter for like 5 huge tables downstairs.. I come from California where the ramen is better and in comparison..this was not worth the waiting in line and the waiting over an hour to get our ramen.. If u are craving it go for it but I know if I came back to Spain I would skip on ramen.. takes for ever and it's not even the best and there was still a line when we left.. read more

We walked all over the city on a cold and rainy night to find this place. We were looking for something warm and comforting and when we finally found it, we realized we had walked past in a time or two and didn't notice the small sign. When we finally sat down, I ordered the Vegetariano miso bowl. The waitress tried to convince us to get the middle sized bowl but the smallest bowl was more than enough. I didn't know what to expect when she told me the broth was a milk base but it was delicious. It was really flavorful, filling and exactly what I needed. I took the tofu out because by the time I got to it, it wasn't crispy anymore but the bowl was still really good. read more

Dear Porschia.…
If you're a ramen fanatic, you have to check out Ramen Kagura in Madrid. Yes, you did not hear wrong, fantastic ramen joint in Madrid! Being as it's my first vacation with my son and him being a obsessed with noodles, ramen was a must each day. And thanks to Yelp, we landed at Ramen Kagura. It was also the only restaurant that we visited twice during our 3-day stay because it was so good! We first came here during dinner, there was a line out the door, we waited about 15-20 minutes. Upon being called, we were lead through the bar, past the kitchen, into a living-room type of dining room. There were also some tables downstairs where the bathroom is. This restaurant is quite large, especially for a ramen joint. Ramen restaurants are usually small, but being this is Spain and everybody takes their time with their drinks and food, it's necessary. We ordered the miso ramen and tantanmen ramen. I realized they gave us the shio ramen instead of the miso, but decided to try it anyway. The shio ramen broth is tasty, yet light, too light for my full liking. There's a lime in it as well. The tantanmen ramen was delicious upon the first bite, but quickly realized it's very salty and heavy during the second and subsequent bites. The pork slices were nicely portioned and fatty. We also got the karaage chicken (fried) and it was delicious. The meat was very tender and tasty. We visited again during lunch a few days later and it IS the time to visit. There were no queue (at 1PM) and your ramen order comes with an order of gyoza, beverage, and dessert. A steal, considering the ramen is already cheap to begin with (7.80 euros for 200g, 9.80 400g). I finally got to taste the miso ramen this time and it was the best of the three ramen, hearty, tasty, and not too salty, but not too light either. Given the price, portions, taste, friend service, I'd have to give Ramen Kagura a "Woohoo! As good as it gets!" as it's the best ramen I've had in Spain. read more

This is a stand of the restaurant Ramen Kagura inside Mercado de San Antón. It is a good place where to grab a quick (and good) ramen and it is also good that you can buy it in different portion sizes (100g, 200g and 400g). I had a small Tonkotsu Soja ramen which I liked and it was a good portion for a light lunch. read more
Satisfying ramen experience. Reasonable and tasty! I've been here twice this week. That should say something, right? Last Sunday I was absolutely delighted to find an authentic ramen place in Madrid. Finanlly. Like every city should have one. This place is specializes in Tonkotsu (pork based) broth. The ramen comes with two decent-size pieces of Chashu (pork slices), half a flavored egg, and standard veggie toppings. You can pick the amount of noodle from 100g, 200g, and 400g options. I think if you're a small eater 100g is enough. 200g gets you pretty full, and 400g you fall into food coma. My male friends order 200g and they're quite full after finishing a bowl. I've tried Tonkotsu original, Tonkotsu miso, and Tantanmen. Tantanmen was fairly spicy but I liked it a lot! The Tonkotsu flavor was a bit too heavy for me, so next time I'll try the Tonkotsu soy sauce broth. As I said earlier I'm very happy to have discovered this place. Reasonable and tasty, that's how a ramen should be! read more

I am so happy to have found this place near my hotel upon check-in. After being in Barcelona for the past three days and Paris prior to that, I can only consume so much butter, foi gras, seafood paella and/or roasted octopus without feeling sluggish and it weighing me down. With that said, being from Southern California and ethnically inclined to eat noodles of all kind quite often, Ramen Kagura is legit. I'm not just saying this because I was desperate and in search of soup of any kind, it is the truth. I ordered their seasonal spicy ramen with an iced cold Kirin and it definitely hit the spot. When I say iced cold, I literally meant that the beer had ice chips floating on top because it was that muchos frio! I can't wait to try their miso ramen next - maybe I'll wear my new Ramen Kagura tee I bought for 20 Euros :) read more

Giving it four stars given how badly I was craving Asian food and Kagura was a nice relief. I was vacationing in Spain for about a week and was tried of tapas and jamón and found this place on Yelp. It's definitely not as good as the better ramen places back home in the San Francisco Bay Area. But I can't complain since this is Europe. If you need your umami fix check out Kagura. read more
Hello yummy goodness. Walking in you will have to stand in line this place gets really busy. Once we were seated we ordered our beer, I got tonkatsu miso ramen and pot stickers. It was heaven. All of it. The waiter was kind and dealt with my horrible Spanish and laughed a bit with us. The ramen was perfection. Rich and filled with all my favorite ramen ingredients including a soft boiled egg. read more

Delicious food and amazing prices. Not a huge selection as far as the types of ramen are concerned but they are delicious. I've tried the miso and the soy ones so far. I loved the soy one. Only bummer was the service, every time I've been they it hasn't been that great. They forget something or are rude. If the service were friendlier I'd absolutely love it. read more

We were very lucky to arrive at the restaurant a few minutes before it opened. The line was almost around the corner. The food was very good. read more

Dear Ana,…
The soup was amazing and they do have an English menu as well. The pork is also super tasty, right to the point. The reason is a 4 is the noodle. I am from Asia, so I am already shocked that I can find such an amazing ramen in Spain. But the noodle itself is not yet at perfection. read more

I was very excited to eat here and thought that the long waiting queue has to mean something positive. I have tried several ramen soups. I ordered the hot one 200 g and the karagee chicken. Both taste good but that's it. I will eat ramen again in Madrid but I will try another Japanese restaurant. Portions are generous. Recommend to order a bib! read more
