ABOUT US
Shunoko is casual sushi omakase restaurant.
While respecting traditional craftmanship of sushi making, we source seasonal ingredients from Japan to Portugal to find and create unique flavors of our own.
Our natural wine pairing is another example of our unique identity.
Leave it to the chef to enjoy 17 course omakase menu or pick your own from our a la carte menu to explore and enjoy our simple and passionate sushi.
​
*Our menu change depends on the season and market availability.

LOVE
Our sushi rice starts with home made umeboshi (pickled plum)
getting the Ume in its season to be brined with just roasted salt and dry under natural sun light for a week and then bottled to be preserved. our umeboshi has been aged 3 to 5 years. They are used in our sushi rice vinegar mixture to add natural sweetness, saltiness, tartness, sourness, umami and
help with digestion.
