Was there with my friend yesterday. Ostegata is rn the best ramen in Oslo and closest to the umami taste of Japanese. The tonkotsu was really good. Taste has evolved a lot better and no more corona bland broth lol haha! Creamy qualified clean broth (i mixed up the black drops so it looks mushy in the foto). I ended the dish without remember to add chili oil. So it was a compliment for you. Chasiu was better with no stinky pork and light, even tho it wasnt chared and doesnt taste anything seasoned. Food size was perfectly served out. Karaage was super cripsy, soft, warm homemade majo was creamy and a litte touch of sour lemon, delicious. Plus point for being unique with the karaage since japanese shops are never meant to be similar. I havent order gyoza or kimchi this time, so if you do experience, do tell. When you see a long snake line outside waiting to eat you know its good. Shop is casually clean, and bathroom is nice. They just need to check if bathroomwas dirt more often. Good for a small group and cozy people who love to enjoy a close enough japanese culture, and good for Asians who miss the taste of those local slurps down the streets in the city.🍻 Edited: i read your comments down there. I got a nice japanese staff yesterday. and it was a good experience. maybe i was lucky to be there at the least busy hour, and maybe the rude staff and bad chefs were fired lol

This is the best ramen place in Oslo,... and maybe in Norway,... and maybe in Scandinavia. And yes, I've tried many ramen places in Scandinavia. And no, I am not exaggerating. There is little less to add, but I'll add more. The place feels traditional though well situated in the Nordic decoration style. The attention is quick and impersonal, but it never felt rude. They have the usual/traditional bar or you can pick a shared table. Speaking of ramen, the broth of the tonkotsu is beyond great. It is thick, rich and infused with some sort of smokey flavor hard to describe. It is truly remarcable. The ajitama is one of the best seasoned I've tried. I was tempted to order an extra one. The toppings seemed minimalist at the beginning, but proven to be more than enough. Everything was way beyond my expectations. ... and we'll, you asked about prices? Remember that you are reading about a place in Norway, so you should have an idea. Though it is not above the (high) average of a dinner in Oslo, and it is cheaper than other (less good) ramen joints in the city. The only sad thing is that I discovered this place on the last day of my stay in Oslo. But maybe it was good since I came and tried a different ramen place each day. So if I had chosen this as first I would not have tried the rest. Don't think about it any further: go. You can thank me later.

I purposely chose the bowl without canned sweetcorn due to my pedantic avoidance of such vagaries. The location was agreeable to dine & depart, although the acoustics were treacherous. The Nagoya bowl arrived at my table from the friendly server, and my accomplices Tonkotsu bowls. I noticed the pool of oil floating on mine, and was slightly hesitant about the repercussions of such excess. Sometimes that means bursts of flavour, other times it just means grease. Half way down the bowl, the verdict was in. A totally acceptable bowl of noodle soup, but nothing more than that. The noodles had a slight chew to them, the egg was standard, the addition of crisp bean sprouts is always a plus, and there was an underlying trace of chilli, but it didn't do enough to counter-act the sweetness of the broth. I know some ramen styles are supposed to be oily, but this pushed the envelope onto the fringes. I had a sip of my friends Tonkotsu and if it had been toned down for the local palate i'd understand, because it lacked the deep richness and body that real Tonkotsu possesses. However, for what it was, it was.

Fresh, new ramen place near Oslo hotspots Toggata and Youngstorget, a 10 minute walk from the central station. The first impression was light and clean, but still cosy. I like this, as I often think these kind of places can be a bit too sterile. We went a Thursday afternoon, after work, and the place was full, with 4 persons waiting in front of us. The wait was short though, maybe 10 minutes, before we got seats at the window. I ordered the tonkotsu ramen, it's my favorite. I've tried it in Tokyo, Taipei and Hong Kong respectively, and really wanted Koie ramen to match it, so I can get great tonkotsu closer to home. And it did. It doesn't beat Akanoren's in Tokyo or Ajisen's in HK, but they're good. They even have the Japanese S&B chilli powder, and the chilli oil as well! They also serve Genmai tea (at the right temperature!), which in my opinion is one of the best teas to pair with food. Long review short; give Koie a try if you love ramen! 🍜

Seriously good ramen! We ended up here after a long day exploring Oslo and were excited to have some Ramen to warm up. The place has a lot of seating and they use it well. The staff are super friendly and knowledgeable about the various kinds of Ramen to help you decide if needed. I got the Tantanmen and my wife got the Mazemen. Both have a little spiciness but very good. The cool thing about the Mazemen is that it doesn’t have a broth and just uses one egg yolk to make it a little creamy which is a completely different experience and makes all the flavors pop! The tantanmen was very good as well and I enjoyed the flavor and heat from the chilis. Definitely try this place out if you are looking for an inexpensive and good meal.

Visiting Koie was a real treat! The food was simply amazing - everything from the noodles to the broth was cooked to perfection. I have to give a special shoutout to their kimchi - it had just the right amount of spice to give it a little kick. The staff were friendly and made sure we knew about all the spicy and non-spicy options available. To top it all off, the restaurant had a really nice vibe. It was calm and laid-back, making it a great spot for a casual night out. All in all, I had a fantastic experience at this ramen restaurant and I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a delicious meal with great service. I'm already looking forward to my next visit!🍜🥢🍵💖
