Ramen Miyako

Ramen Miyako brings Japanese food to the Upper Riccarton area, making it a handy stop for anyone eating out in Christchurch. It is about 5.2 km from central Christchurch.

Diners come here for Japanese food. If it is your first visit, look out for classics of the style such as chicken karaage. With 83 Japanese options across Christchurch, this corner of the local food scene is well covered. The menu also crosses into Asian territory.

Ramen Miyako opens 6 days a week and is closed on Sundays. The earliest start is 11:30 am on Mondays, and the latest finish is 8 pm on Mondays. Like many traditional restaurants, it closes between lunch and dinner service on several days, so check the times before heading over mid-afternoon. In total it trades for about 33 hours each week.

For budgeting, Japanese restaurants of this kind in New Zealand typically cost around $40–$70 per person (Mid-to-upper range). It is surrounded by other eateries: we count 10 more venues within about 1 km, which makes this part of Upper Riccarton easy to explore on foot.
