The inside is the perfect vibe you want for a ramen restaurant. Warm, cozy, welcoming and down to earth The ramen is good and dependable There's only ~6 tables inside and ~8 outside so you may have to wait but they can seat you pretty quick! Reasonably priced. I liked the spicy miso ramen. Good sized servings. No issues!

Stopped by here with a couple of friends after checking out the nearby Nintendo event at Brooklyn Bridge Park! We walked in for a table of 4 around 7pm on a Sunday night and didn't have to wait at all. It wasn't my first time visiting but I don't think I've ever had to wait more than a few minutes for a table which is always a plus. I mean, who really has the patience? Their appetiser never falls short of delectable! My friends ordered the Brussels sprout, fries, and takoyaki to start off. For my main course, I got the Red Tonkotsu ramen to satisfy my love for spicy food.

Kogane is one of the best ramen options around this part of Brooklyn, and I say this knowing Tsuta and Mr. Taka are further down in Dumbo. I've been to their Chelsea location before as well, but I quite enjoy the neighborly feel of this Brooklyn Heights location. There is outdoor seating available, but the cozy tables inside exude a nice zen ambiance when you visit during their off-peak hours. My usual order is their tonkotsu ramen ($17) or their spicy miso ramen ($18). I think both bowls are very solid, classic options that you can't go wrong with. The portions are quite generous and while they do offer kaedama ($4.50) which is extra noodles if you have leftover broth, I have never needed it. The staff here are super friendly and they also take Apple Pay!

Consistently good ramen at Kogane! The broths are always so rich and delicious, and they don't skimp on ingredients with each serving. Noodles are sometimes a touch undercooked in my opinion, but not in a way that radically detracts from the meal. This is a great neighborhood spot, and one I think worth a visit if you're in Brooklyn Heights or DUMBO and want good ramen at a decent price!

This ramen is something special. If you're wondering how the Brooklyn and Manhattan locations compare, Brooklyn is noticeably better. The tonkatsu and red tonkatsu broths are 10/10. The slices of pork were perfectly melt-in-your-mouth the first time we dined here, but firmer (like most other places) the second time. Noodles are also firm, but that's what we want! I got the lobster ramen this time and would give that a 7/10. I liked the addition of lobster pieces which were nicely poached, but the broth was a little sweet for me. As a noodle soup lover who doesn't prefer ramen, this one is my favorite of all I've tried in New York.

Great ramen spot near BK Bridge park!! This place surpasses mr Taka which is right near the park. I'm glad we took the 15 min walk to this gem bc it was worth it. Broth was rich and flavorful for our spicy tonkotsu ramen and I was able to add extra chili oil as needed. The spicy edamame was delicious!!! Could not stop eating it. The only things that were a bit disappointing was the pork in both the ramen and the pork buns we got. Nothing special and could definitely be improved upon. Overall service was great and I would return when I'm in the area again :)

I was feeling noodle soup, so found Kogane Ramen on a Monday night. It was a chilly night, but the heater was way too strong for us inside the restaurant. Luckily, they have an outdoor patio where we sat instead. This was perfect as you really warm up with the hot ramen. We started off with a Hot Sake ($11) and a Sapporo Draft ($7). For the ramen, I got the Miso Lobster Ramen ($22) because how often do you get lobster in your ramen? The price is pretty reasonable as well for lobster. They even bring you a claw cracker to help you, but it wasn't really needed. When the bowl arrived, it seemed like a small bowl; but it's actually a lot. The bowl is deep, which made it deceiving. Such a well-rounded bowl of ramen from depth of broth to variety of toppings and tender chashu. Glad to have this in the neighborhood whenever I have a ramen craving.

Post COVID glad to see that they're doing well and have additional seating outdoor as their shop is rather small. I got their Spicy Miso Ramen ($18) and it is just as good as I remembered. I also got the Herb Sweet Potato Fries ($7), the highlight being their Yuzu Mayo dipping sauce. The sauce I have to say was a bit overpowering with the Yuzu flavoring and they need to take it easy on that. Also if you're a big credit card points person, this place is classified as a grocery store for some reason and not a restaurant. Tried calling my credit card company and they won't change it.
