Kanada-Ya is an independent chain of award
winning Ramen bars, so far spanning 4 countries. We currently have 6 super busy locations here
in the capital, each serving a delicious selection of Japanese delights.

Authenticity is at the heart of
our menu and we import many of our ingredients from Japan to help us achieve
the rich, deep and deeply loved flavours that we are famous for.

Our
speciality Tonkotsu ramen boasts an 18-hour cooked pork bone broth, batch
crafted with love using traditional techniques learned from the
Motherland. Added to this succulent, rich and flavourful broth are Hakata
style wheat noodles, beautifully braised chashu pork belly and a superb
selection of toppings all sourced from Japan. Our bold bowls are much
beloved by our regular diners and newcomers alike.
