26 Best Japanese Restaurants in Lisbon

“I was throughly impressed with the careful preparation and attention to detail of the vegan food. Any vegans wishing to dine here should give the restaurant advance notice (we let them know several days ahead) as this is not typical of kaiseki cuisine in Japan. The food was delicious with delicate flavours and exquisite presentation. The chefs took time to explain the flavours and composition. I couldn’t have left happier as did my fellow non vegan diners. A perfect night.“

“This place is amazing. The food is delicious, a limited but good selection of fish.

I've eaten so much sushi, all over the world and for AYCE sushi this place is absolutely amazing.

The service is excellent if a tiny bit slow, but the food comes out amazing. I don't feel rushed, to finish and pay and the waiter is friendly and attentive.“

“These are one of the best Tacos I ever had in europe. So fresh and authentic. My favourites were the ‘Tijuana Carne Assada’ (Beef with Guacamole) and the ‘Gobernador’ (Shrimps with cheese). The place is nothing fancy and the menu is not big, but that’s not the reason you’ll go here..It will be for the amazing authentic and juicy Tacos.“

“We where a big party of 14 that had not made a reservation on a friday night and they fixed it in a few minutes.

I shared to pork ribs and salmonparty which were both very good.
The first and last resturant i went too that had normalsized beerglasses.

The interior was nothing special, but if you sit outside it is a amazing view.

Vegetarian options: Had a separate section for it.

Wheelchair accessibility: Think it was a ramp in.“

“Tasty food and big portion! (all the dishes I ordered are very good, the taste is very balanced), definitely worth the price! (Which is also affordable too in Lisbon). The service is great, quick, respectful and super friendly too both the waitress and chefs!“

“Sushi 9/10
Starters 9/10
Black cod 6/10

Sushi / Nigiri were fantastic & so were the starters. Waiters were very friendly also.
Would have given it 5 star, but found the Black Cod quite underwhelming“

“Very good I recommend the neighboring all-you-can-eat restaurants the quality of this one is undeniable, not expensive 15€/p for all-you-can-eat knowing that it is happening at the moment T
You must note the sushi you want on a piece of paper that the waitress takes and gives to the chef, therefore fresh product.“

“It's the 3rd time we've been....that's why we liked it!
Good food without a doubt and knowing that we can eat to our hearts’ content tastes good!
But the space itself is obsolete and not at all attractive - but nothing that some renovations wouldn't solve.
But I will definitely be back!“

“Omakase Ri is one of those special places where they get everything right. The experience and hospitality is top notch, and the most important ingredient in every bite is love. You can tell that they love and take pride in what they do and it creates a memorable time making you want to come back again and again.“

“We always take the menu according to the chef's choices. The dishes have always been excellent. Cold and hot dishes. But they decided to change their formulas without notifying customers. So we received 15 pieces of sushi. Surprised, we attracted the attention of the waiter who assured us that this was only the beginning and that the hot dishes would follow. When we received the bill we had the unpleasant surprise of finding that the hot dishes had been charged extra as well as a second cold dish that had never been ordered.
With 4 coffees, 1 bottle of wine for 25 euros, we came to a total of more than 160 euros for two. We had to ask for the complaints book for them to admit that there had been a small communication error. This is very unfortunate because it greatly damages the reputation of this restaurant. This is unfortunately becoming common in Portugal where foreigners are systematically the target of scams of all kinds.“

“I have been a customer for several years and I always refer to Sushitime as one of the best places to eat sushi in Lisbon. In addition to the quality of the sushi, the service has always been and continues to be fantastic. Thank you Pedro, Rui, Vitória, Júnior Maicon, Jennifer, Gabriel and everyone else.“

“Might be weird choosing to eat ramen when traveling in Portugal but it's the real thing just like in Japan unlike in Edinburgh where something's usually just slightly off. ? Preferred the tonkontsu ramen which has thinner kyushu style noodles than the tonkotsu tantanmen and is less salty. If you fish out the ginger, it's kind of like Ichiran but less rich. Would recommend getting extra charsiu pork!! The karaage ? was really good with a nice dip and the chocolate cheesecake was divine, especially the base of it - so well-made (don't be put off by the word 'ginger' lol... the combination has the taste of sophistication ?). The decor was also lovely. Good service.“

“We've been customers here for 3 years, of all the Sushisan I've been to in Lisbon, the best is the one at Expo. The quality of the sushi is better, the service is better and even the atmosphere (which could be better). We constantly come here, we almost always eat all-you-can-eat as we try different types of sushi. We would like to compliment the establishment, it is worth visiting.

Parking: Good

“Absolutely wonderful!
At Mediamático I entered the world of superior quality Rosé wines.
Strive for the freshness and quality of the ingredients.
When people ask me what I recommend, I can only answer: Everything, because it is the best sushi restaurant in Portugal.“

“I went to eat in this beautiful restaurant located right next to the Belém Tower (mythical place in Lisbon). The place is excellent, very calming. We were served by Joao who gave us very good advice and was unparalleled in his sympathy.
I recommend!!“

“this place is such a gem!!! the vegan dishes were all amazing - it’s really obvious when ordering what can be adapted to be vegan. the staff are incredibly friendly and the food is just delicious. stand outs were definitely the battered aubergine, the miso soup and the vegan biscoff and sesame cheesecake ? absolutely incredible beyond words.“

“I love this spot, the sushi is small and very clean, for those who really like sushi this restaurant is an amazing wonder.

I totally recommend, it's a bit like those hidden gems for an amazing set of sushi variants, with different fishes and combinations.

Love it ?“

“Excellent location in a two-story restaurant with the kitchen in the center and open. One of the spaces can be eaten on the floor to experience more. The service is surprisingly friendly. The food was perfect for the price charged. It has a tasting menu, but it is not all you can eat. The price is more than fair for the price charged. While it's not perfect sushi, it's great for the price. The friendliness of the service stands out compared to many restaurants.“

“Great food for great value! Loved the sushi options! Very fresh and tasty. The staff were polite and respectful. The place itself gave me a bit of scepticism at the beginning due to its run down covers and old fashioned furniture but the quality of food was excellent“

“Wonderful ambience with excellent service and interesting decor. A bit hard to find but it is on the av liberdade just down from the other restaurant of the similar name . Interesting cheese and truffle nan bread with my Thai curry. Partner's fish was delicious.“

“Fully agree with Lola's review. Very good (tasty and fresh) sushi, at a very reasonable price. Kemrul, the waiter, made us feel very welcome, and was super helpfull. Only one point less for 'atmosphere' because the terrace is next to a busy road. If time permits, we will be returning here certainly!

Vegetarian options: There are several veggie options available.

Kid-friendliness: Kemrul upgraded our kids' chopsticks DIY style with rubber bands which enabled them to eat on their own!“

“The food came pretty fast. Not the best sushi but acceptable. I was disappointed they didn't have everything on the menu and they didn't say anything about it, only after i asked why my order had not arrived yet, the waitress said that kind of fish finished at lunch time.“

“I ate bean stew, an African food, I was very satisfied...
I would really like to thank the chef who made the food, which was excellent, and I was very well served by Mrs. Joceline, very polite and extremely friendly. Thank you very much I will come back again.“

“Highly recommended site. We ate on the terrace because we were with our furry friends, the waiter was charming and they invited us to try the salmon carpaccio with pesto which was exquisite. It cost us €34 for two people, not bad for a lunch and we left full.“

“The sushi is very good and they have a speedy delivery. The only thing I don't like about it is that you have only two time windows when you can order, so if you want to have like a late lunch (order at 2pm or something) they will not deliver.“
