We went there for a birthday celebration and were very pleased we did. My tonkotsu ramen “your favourite ramen” was really authentic and gorgeously delicious, the pork was so soft and juicy. My partner ordered the garlic one with pork and it was great. Takoyaki was exactly like what I had in Japan. Sushi is one thing I missed after moving to the UK and I wish we can have more (but we were too full)! The fish was so fresh and I love the fish to rice ratio. Service was excellent (thank you the waiter from Okinawa ☺️)! They managed to find a candle for us (the last-minute birthday surprise) and

I loved this place. Food was really tasty. Restaurant is right in the center, easy to find. Kitchen is on the ground floor and the seating area is on 1st floor. There is a choice of traditional japanese seating and normal tables. Service was simple but quick. I had the Takoyaki starter which is Octopus. Looked good and tasted really nice. For main course I had the signature Ying Yang ramen with cha shu pork. It was served hot and the flavours were great. I will definitely want to go back.

Absolutely amazing service and food every time!! The staff is always very lovely and helpful, they allow for some modifications. The food extremely tasty, we always start with a shared sushi platter (two portions on the picture) then go on to have the noodles! They have very fair prices, one of the cheaper restaurants in Canterbury, and the price is definitely worth the portion!

Just wow. Truly the best ramen I’ve had, and I’m regularly looking for it! We got the miso ramen and tonkotsu (made it spicy). The broth was absolutely delicious. We also wanted to try the sushi, and again, wow. The salmon nigiri was so fresh and melt in your mouth. Staff was also lovely! If we’re ever back in Canterbury, we will absolutely be dining again.
