Ramen in Lisbon
Your Lisbon passport
Tap Been there on the spots you’ve been to.See passport →
In Lisbon, ramen lives in small rooms, short menus and owners who are actually there, usually at a price that still fits an ordinary night out. The scene has creamy tonkotsu, deeply savory miso that wins over people who have lived in Japan, handmade noodles and good vegetarian and gluten-free options. We read hundreds of reviews and kept the 10 worth the trip. None gets ahead of the others: choose by broth, by hunger or by the nearest hill.
Ajitama
A short, ramen-focused menu, praised even in its gluten-free option. One isolated report mentions a saltless broth and raw mushrooms, and the vegetarian version was criticized for having few visible vegetables.
