About
Hiroshi Yamane founded Kobuta Ramen in 2017 with a clear mandate: ramen made by Japanese people, for anyone who appreciates it. The official website states the kitchen team is predominantly made up of Japanese nationals, which is unusual in Barcelona's Japanese restaurant scene. The Sants flagship on Carrer de Súria seats around 40 and fills quickly on weekends. The tonkotsu miso ramen is a signature, and the karaage chicken starter has attracted consistent five-star reviews on TripAdvisor. The restaurant has since expanded within Barcelona.
