Last updated 13 November 2026. This is a researched guide, not a set of first-hand reviews. Prices, hours and menus change, so confirm them when you book.
Short answer: Lisbon’s current sushi map is a mix of tight omakase counters, informal izakaya rooms and two Michelin-starred Japanese kitchens. The ten places below are the list we settled on for 2026, with neighbourhood, style, a price per person, an official booking link and a gluten-free note for each one. If you are coeliac, skip ahead to the dedicated section: official information is scarce, and sushi is not automatically gluten-free.
The list starts with six Lisbon restaurants that keep coming up in local conversations — IRÚ, After Dark, Hikidashi, Ryoshi, YoiZaru and Ueno Omakase — and adds four names that appear consistently in the Michelin Guide and recent press: Kanazawa, YŌSO, Go Juu and Omakase Wa. Older guides still mention Omakase Ri; it is no longer a regular counter restaurant, which is why Omakase Wa stands in its place (see the FAQ).
If you are in town for a few November days, Lisbon in November: weather and a beach lunch at Kailua, Fonte da Telha is a useful companion to this dinner list. For a guided walk between meals, there are also Lisbon food tours on GetYourGuide.

Sushi for coeliacs in Lisbon
Sushi is not automatically safe for coeliacs. Soy sauce (shoyu) usually contains wheat. Tempura batter, breaded dishes, gyoza wrappers and some marinades also contain gluten, and a tight omakase counter brings a real risk of cross-contamination. Tell the restaurant you have coeliac disease when you book, and again when you sit down. Do not assume that “gluten-free” on a menu is the same as a medically safe kitchen.
Of the ten restaurants in this guide, only three have sourced information we can state with confidence:
- YŌSO says officially, on its reservations page (checked 13 November 2026), that it does not offer adaptations for coeliacs because of the risk of cross-contamination. It also does not serve vegetarian menus. If you are coeliac, this is not a restaurant to try your luck with.
- Omakase Wa is the one address with a positive, attributable note: a SpoonZoom report dated 8 June 2026, which says the information was confirmed by the restaurant, states that the kitchen can adapt dishes and has gluten-free tamari. That wording is not on the official website, so confirm it when you book and do not treat it as a medical guarantee.
- Ryoshi’s official English menu from April 2026 has allergen columns for gluten, gluten-free and wheat, and asks guests to mention intolerances before ordering. Flagged gluten-free dishes are useful, but they are not a coeliac-safe kitchen policy, and the menu does not mention tamari.
For IRÚ, After Dark, Hikidashi, YoiZaru, Ueno Omakase, Kanazawa and Go Juu we found no official gluten-free or tamari policy. Some booking sites automatically tick a “gluten-free options” box; that is not an official source. Ask when you reserve.
If you want a first-hand gluten-free meal we have actually eaten in Lisbon, see our review of Cervejaria Liberdade, a seafood lunch on New Year’s Day. For coeliac travel further afield, we have also written about a 100% gluten-free bistro in Athens and eating gluten-free in Japan with teenagers.
1. IRÚ — Amoreiras
IRÚ (also written Irù or Iru Omakase) is a counter omakase in Amoreiras, at Travessa da Fábrica das Sedas 30 / 30 B. There are eight seats. The chef is Pedro Binotti, and the menu is a daily surprise built around aged fish.
Price: about €90 for the omakase, plus €40 for the pairing, according to Time Out Lisboa on 9 June 2025. We did not find a current official price on the restaurant’s minimal website in November 2026, so treat €90 as a 2025 press figure and confirm it when you book.
How to book: reservations only, through UMAI or on the official site. The number listed on the site is +351 911 937 792.
Gluten-free: no official information. Ask when you book.
2. After Dark — Príncipe Real
After Dark is a small izakaya in Príncipe Real, at Rua do Monte Olivete 73. The official site and a Time Out report of 27 December 2025 use door number 73; some booking widgets still say 71, in the same building as Boubou’s Sandwich Club, which becomes the izakaya in the evening. Confirm the door number when you reserve. There are two counters and about ten seats. The chef is Matheus Simões Martins. You can order à la carte or choose a tasting menu of seven or ten moments. It is open Tuesday to Saturday from 19:00.
Price: the 7-moment menu is €54, the 10-moment menu is €76, and a pairing of four sakes is €38 (Time Out, 27 December 2025). À la carte examples in that same report include a “chaotic gunkan” at €25 and wagyu nigiri at €23 for three pieces.
How to book: Tablein or the official site. The telephone number on the site is +351 213 971 405.
Gluten-free: no official information. Ask when you book.
3. Hikidashi — Campo de Ourique
Hikidashi is a Japanese tavern in Campo de Ourique, at Rua Coelho da Rocha 20A. It is an à la carte izakaya — otsumami, sashimi, nigiri, chirashi, skewers and hot dishes — not a single-menu omakase.
Price: the official online menu does not list prices. A secondary listing (Bellaciao) puts a meal at about €65 per person without alcohol. That is an order of magnitude, not an official price.
How to book: lunch and dinner reservations on the official booking page.
Gluten-free: no official information. The official menu we checked does not mention tamari or a coeliac policy. Ask when you book.
4. Ryoshi — Santos / Cais do Sodré
Ryoshi (Ryōshi) sits at Rua da Boavista 108, on the Santos / Cais do Sodré edge of town. It is a contemporary izakaya, at the counter or at a table, not a classic sushi bar. The chef is Lucas Azevedo. The menu runs from oysters and gyoza to aubergine, katsu sando, temaki and oshizushi.
Price: the official English menu of April 2026 lists dishes from €6.50 (the “Shrimp game” couvert) to €24, with desserts at €7–€10. A full meal will usually land clearly above the “average €40” figure some booking sites still show; one guide (The Blue Hub) talks of from €45 per person. There is no fixed omakase menu that we found.
How to book: the Grupo Champ page for Ryoshi, +351 963 488 779, or ryoshi@grupochamp.pt. Official hours are Monday to Saturday, 19:00–01:00; closed on Sunday.
Gluten-free: the April 2026 official menu flags gluten-free dishes and asks you to mention intolerances before you order. That is not a coeliac guarantee, and the menu does not mention tamari. Ask when you book.
5. YoiZaru — Príncipe Real
YoiZaru (sometimes written Yoizaru, and often searched as “Yozaru”) is a modern izakaya and shochu bar at Rua Cecílio de Sousa 85, in Príncipe Real / Santo António. It belongs to the SakeMico group. The chef is Kazuaki Senno. Expect small plates, sushi and sashimi and Japanese comfort cooking, at the counter or at tables. It is not a formal omakase.
Price: we did not recover an official menu in November 2026 — the group website returned a 404 on 13 November. Pricing is à la carte and variable. Secondary write-ups describe a cheaper lunch and a clearly more expensive evening of plates and drinks. Confirm prices when you book.
How to book: UMAI, +351 214 003 108, or yoizaru@sakemico.com. Because the official group site was down when we checked, confirm the reservation before you treat the evening as settled. Instagram: @yoizaru.izakaya.
Gluten-free: no official information. Ask when you book.
6. Ueno Omakase — Arco do Cego
Ueno Omakase is a ten-seat counter inside Mercado do Arco do Cego, at Rua Reis Gomes 7, shop 3. The omakase runs to 15 moments and is reservation-only. The chefs are Tiago Claro and Marcos Pereira. Press coverage from May 2025 described the fish as coming mainly from Sesimbra.
Price: €90 for the omakase, on the official website checked on 13 November 2026. A May 2025 NiT article still mentioned €75; that figure is out of date.
How to book: the form and contacts on the official site, +351 917 306 522, or geral@ueno.pt. Opening days were not completely clear on the site when we checked (Tuesday in particular), so confirm the sitting when you reserve.
Gluten-free: no official information. Ask when you book.
7. Kanazawa — Restelo
Kanazawa is in Restelo, near Belém, at Rua Damião de Góis 3 A. It serves kaiseki and sushi omakase at a small counter (the site says eight seats). It has held one Michelin star since 2022, including in references to the 2026 guide. The chef-owner is Paulo Morais.
Price: official dinner menus on the restaurant’s dinner page are a 5-moment vegetarian (shojin) menu at €85, a 7-moment kaiseki at €120, an 8-moment sushi omakase at €150, and a 9-moment tasting with drinks at €210.
How to book: reservas@kanazawa.com.pt, +351 213 010 292, or the official site. Official hours: lunch 12:00–13:30, dinner 19:00–20:30, with an afternoon sitting on Friday and Saturday, 16:00–18:00. Closed Sunday and Monday. Book ahead: the room is tiny.
Gluten-free: no official information. Ask when you book.
8. YŌSO — Alcântara
YŌSO (Yōso Omakase) is on Rampa das Necessidades 6, between Lapa and Alcântara. There is a single omakase menu with a kaiseki slant, served at a counter of about ten seats. The chef is Habner Gomes. The fish is from the Portuguese coast. YŌSO has one Michelin star (awarded in 2025 and retained in the 2026 guide).
Price: about €95 for the menu, in a Time Out review dated 23 December 2024 (around €140 with two glasses of sake, water and coffee). We did not find an updated official price on the website in November 2026, so confirm it when you book.
How to book: the official reservations page, reservas@yoso-omakase.pt, or +351 213 970 705. Tables are for a maximum of four people, and children under 12 are not admitted. It is open Tuesday to Saturday, with sittings at 13:00 and 20:00. The restaurant asks for allergy information 48 hours in advance.
Gluten-free: officially, YŌSO cannot adapt the menu for coeliacs. The reservations page, checked on 13 November 2026, states that because of the risk of cross-contamination it does not offer adaptations for coeliacs, and that it does not serve vegetarian menus.
9. Go Juu — Praça de Espanha
Go Juu (GoJuu Club) is at Rua Marquês Sá da Bandeira 46A, in Praça de Espanha / Avenidas Novas. It serves traditional sushi à la carte (sashimi, nigiri, makimono, hot dishes) and omakase at the counter. The kitchen is a tribute to master Takashi Yoshitake and the former AYA, cooked by his students. It is Michelin-recommended in the Portugal 2026 guide, without a star.
Price: the recent menu PDF on the official site (file name Menu_120926) lists weekday lunch teishoku from €21 to €32.50, a 16-piece nigiri omakase at €90 (counter only), a 5-moment GoJuu omakase at €110, and a 7-moment Itamae omakase at €130. There are also set combinations and à la carte dishes.
How to book: +351 218 280 704 or +351 933 298 148, via the official site. Lunch is Tuesday to Saturday, 12:30–14:30; dinner 19:30–22:30. One practical catch: from Thursday to Saturday, dinner is reserved for Club GoJuu members. The restaurant may accept a booking the day before if a seat is free.
Gluten-free: no official information. The menu asks you to mention allergies for the omakase, but it does not mention tamari or a coeliac policy. Ask when you book.
10. Omakase Wa — near Avenida da Liberdade
Omakase Wa is on a side street just off Avenida da Liberdade, at Travessa do Fala-Só 15B. It is an Edomae-style omakase of 15 moments at a ten-seat counter. The executive chef is Ashik Yonjan. The restaurant is Michelin-recommended and offers a sake pairing with an SSA sommelier.
Price: on the official website checked on 13 November 2026, the 15-moment menu is €105, and a winter menu at €120 runs from 1 November 2026.
How to book: omakaselisbon.com or info@omakaselisbon.com. Sittings are Tuesday to Saturday at 19:00 and 21:30.
Gluten-free: a SpoonZoom report dated 8 June 2026, which says the dietary information was confirmed directly by the restaurant, states that dishes can be adapted and that gluten-free tamari is available. SpoonZoom itself still tells readers to confirm before ordering, and the same wording is not on the official website. Confirm it when you book.
Also worth a look
Three more names sit just outside the ten, and are worth knowing about. Kabuki Lisboa, at Rua Castilho 77B in the Galerias Ritz of the Four Seasons Hotel Ritz, is a one-star Japanese-Mediterranean restaurant; its autumn Momijigari menu was reported at €130 per person in November 2026 (Forbes Portugal and Plataforma Media). Mitsu, at Rua Martens Ferrão 9 in Picoas, is a ten-seat omakase (chefs Shinya Koike and Kshetri Raju), Michelin-recommended; secondary sources put the menu at about €100, and bookings go through UMAI. Cafe Dozo, at Rua do Diário de Notícias 69 in Bairro Alto (@cafedozo), is a small, informal sushi counter clearly below omakase prices — useful if you want a more casual stop rather than a tasting-menu evening. We found no official gluten-free information for any of the three.
FAQ: sushi in Lisbon
What are the best sushi restaurants in Lisbon in 2026?
This researched list of ten is: IRÚ, After Dark, Hikidashi, Ryoshi, YoiZaru, Ueno Omakase, Kanazawa, YŌSO, Go Juu and Omakase Wa. It is a guide based on official sites, the Michelin Guide and recent press, not a personal ranking of meals we have eaten.
How much does omakase cost in Lisbon?
Plan for roughly €90 to €150 per person before drinks at the dedicated counters. In November 2026, Ueno was €90 on its official site, Omakase Wa was €105 or €120 for the winter menu, and Kanazawa’s sushi omakase was €150. IRÚ was reported at about €90 in June 2025, and YŌSO at about €95 in December 2024; confirm both. Izakaya rooms such as After Dark, Hikidashi, Ryoshi and YoiZaru can be lower if you order à la carte.
Which Lisbon sushi restaurants have a Michelin star?
On this list, Kanazawa and YŌSO each have one star in the 2026 guide. Go Juu, Omakase Wa and, just off the list, Mitsu are Michelin-recommended without a star. Kabuki Lisboa, also off the list, has one star.
Is sushi in Lisbon safe for coeliacs?
Not by default. YŌSO officially cannot adapt for coeliacs. Omakase Wa has a press report, confirmed by the house according to SpoonZoom, of gluten-free tamari — confirm it when you book. Ryoshi’s official menu flags gluten-free dishes but does not promise a coeliac-safe kitchen. Everywhere else on this list, we found no official information: ask when you reserve, and never assume soy sauce is gluten-free.
Do I need to book sushi restaurants in Lisbon?
Yes, especially for the counters. IRÚ, Ueno, Kanazawa, YŌSO, Go Juu’s omakase and Omakase Wa are reservation-led, and several have fewer than a dozen seats. Go Juu’s Thursday-to-Saturday dinners are for club members unless a seat appears the day before.
What happened to Omakase Ri?
Omakase Ri is not currently operating as a regular counter restaurant. Its official site, checked on 13 November 2026, invites sign-ups for a re-launch and says “when we’re back”. In May 2026 the house announced a closure from 1 July to prepare “Ri 2.0”; later notices described a shift towards delivery and only occasional guest-chef omakase nights. That is why Omakase Wa, not Ri, is in this list of ten.
