All the food tastes incredible. You can absolutely tell their soup is simmered from real bones with rich, natural broth — no artificial MSG at all. The staff are warm, attentive and deliver fantastic service from start to finish. Will definitely come back again and highly recommend it to everyone!, FU W, 2 months ago > Excelente Japanese/Ramen place! If you are visiting Christchurch and craving for some ramen or Japanese food, this is the right place! The service is amazing, everybody is so kind and helpful, the plates came so fast and with the right temperature, the ramen is really good and authentic, as well as the sashimi that was soooooo amazing, exactly what we were looking for!!! They take credit card payment with no extra charge which is wonderful. 100% recommended, Jesús Armando Farías, 2 months ago > Outstanding all round is all we could say about our experience at Tanoshi! We didn’t have a reservation and they were very accommodating. Every dish we saw come out of the kitchen looked like an incredible work of art & what we had was the best Japanese food either of us had ever tasted! I would go so far as to say that it was exquisite!! Yum yum yum and the flavours were incredible. I had a plum wine which was gorgeous & my friend had a sake cocktail which was lovely too! Would love to go back and order off the ramen menu. So many options & a great venue for sharing plates. Loved it & will re, Janita Patrick, 8 months ago ## Doors - [What stood on this ground](https://www.chch.live/before?lat=-43.5326507&lon=172.6348023) - [On the map](https://www.chch.live/map#-43.5326507,172.6348023,17) - [Documents that name it](https://www.chch.live/documents?q=Tanoshi) - [Christchurch Central City](https://www.chch.live/christchurch-central-city), the suburb - [The OSM record](https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/11951692252), fix it there ## Questions, answered briefly **What is Tanoshi?** A Japanese restaurant in Christchurch Central City, Christchurch. **Where is Tanoshi?** 93 Cashel Street Central City, Christchurch Central City, on [Cashel Street Central City](https://www.chch.live/street/christchurch-central-city/cashel-street).
