Koie, Japanese restaurant in St. Hanshaugen, Norway.
Koie is a Japanese restaurant in St. Hanshaugen that specializes in freshly made ramen prepared daily in its own kitchen. The menu features tonkotsu, shoyu, and miso broths alongside gyoza, karaage, and other traditional side dishes.
The restaurant opened in late 2019 as the first in Oslo to produce fresh ramen noodles on site. This approach introduced a new standard to the city's food scene at that time.
The dining room features wood throughout its design, echoing the traditional style of Japanese eating places.
The restaurant sits at street level on Osterhaus gate 13, making it easy to find and access. You can walk in without reservations, though it can get busy during peak meal times.
The head chef Tim Homer works closely with restaurateur Ann Sung-an Lee to develop the signature broths using traditional techniques. Their partnership brings together two different culinary perspectives to create something distinctive.
