People keep calling this the best ramen in Canterbury: rich broths served properly hot, and cha shu pork so soft it barely needs chewing.
An authentic Japanese family restaurant in the heart of Canterbury
Big bowls of ramen, izakaya plates and fresh sushi and sashimi, with the kitchen downstairs, seating upstairs and takeaway if you would rather eat at home. Happy Samurai is an authentic Japanese family restaurant on Butchery Lane, a narrow cobbled lane right in the middle of Canterbury. Look for the black timber shopfront, the red lanterns and the fairy lights, then head up the stairs: the kitchen sits on the ground floor where you can see it working, and the tables are on the first, with a choice of traditional Japanese seating or ordinary tables.
