About
Go Juu occupies an important place in Lisbon's Japanese dining history. It operates as a direct continuation of the legacy of Takashi Yoshitake, the Japanese itamae (master sushi chef) whose restaurant Aya was foundational to authentic Japanese cuisine in Portugal. The current team are Yoshitake's personally trained disciples, maintaining the strict traditional technique he instilled. Omakase menus priced between €77 and €110 are served at the counter, with a club membership model for evening sittings emphasising the exclusive and focused nature of the experience. The quality of fish and preparation is among the highest available in Lisbon.
