Both are equally correct, but the meaning may be subtly different. In the first, you are considering the 'ramen noodles' and 'soy sauce' as different elements. They are two distinct foodstuffs that are served together. In the second, 'soy sauce ramen noodles' is a compound noun, which suggests that it is the name of a specific dish. They have probably been cooked together.
