Dining at Shifu Ramen was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we walked in, we were transported into a vibrant, anime-themed oasis that perfectly blended delicious cuisine with immersive atmosphere.

We sampled a variety of dishes including the flavorful wings, perfectly crisp pot stickers, the rich and savory beef ramen, and the bold, spicy fried chicken ramen. Each dish was executed to perfection—bursting with flavor, beautifully presented, and crafted with care. It’s clear the chefs here are passionate about their craft.

But Shifu Ramen is more than just a place to eat—it’s an experience. For anime enthusiasts, this is an absolute dream come true. The restaurant is decked out with both classic and contemporary anime memorabilia, paired with a soundtrack that keeps the energy upbeat and nostalgic. The ambiance is stylish and modern with a whimsical twist—and the highlight of the evening? A singing robot that surprised me for my birthday celebration! It was unforgettable.

This is truly a hidden gem that deserves all the attention. Whether you’re a foodie, an anime fan, or just looking for a unique dining adventure, Shifu Ramen delivers on all fronts.

We will definitely be back—and next time,...

Wow - I arrived at 9pm with my daughter, son and husband, we had walked past the night before when we were exploring the Oriente area by our hotel and thought it looked great.

We stood by the entrance and looked at the menu - the staff were amazing not pushy at all, they simply offered a more detailed menu for us to look at which was great.

I was really pleased with the quick service, my son totally loves all ramen dishes, he ordered the chicken ramen which was delicious, really great quality food, super hot and massive! My daughter had the child’s menu and myself and husband ordered lots of starters. All came really quickly, excellent quality, hot and good sized portions.

The waitresses and waiters were all amazing, so sweet to my children and spoke good English which helped as we know no Portuguese.

They gave lots of free gifts to my children which they loved.

I would definitely recommend anyone to go there, especially families as the atmosphere, service and food is outstanding.

Thank you, thank you...
