Japanese ramen restaurant
4.6 (5)Los Cristianos10-20 €
Ramen Shifu Tenerife Sur is useful when you are near Los Cristianos beach and want ramen instead of another seafront meal. Duck ramen, tonkotsu and miso bowls are the dishes people come back to, with takoyaki, lemonades and smaller plates filling out the order.
The anime decor gives the room a clear personality without making the food feel secondary. It is still a casual ramen stop, not a destination Japanese restaurant, but the value is good for a place so close to the beach. The entrance is small and easy to miss, and evenings can get busy, so do not leave it too late if ramen is the plan.

We walked from the beach back to the car and spotted this place and decided to eat. Variety of dishes on the menu, easy to find something you like. House lemonades were fresh and tasty. Ramen was excellent. Takoyaki was very nice. Prices are OK, given you are literally 1 minute from the beach.

My experience here was beyond words! Perfectly located near the beach, yet just far enough away to escape the noise and tourist crowds — the vibe is spot on.
I already had a good feeling when I saw Shifu Ramen on Google Maps, and wow… I was absolutely right. Even from the street, I could tell this place was my kind of spot. The anime characters displayed in the window immediately caught my eye (and yes, I recognized them right away 😄).
Inside, the balance of neon signs and décor is just perfect — stylish and immersive without being overwhelming. What really impressed me was the attention to detail: custom-printed chopstick covers, table papers, and a beautifully designed menu. You can feel the care they put into everything.
I ordered Tonkotsu ramen (Naruto-style!) and a raspberry iced tea (Frambuesa). Before ordering, I had a lovely chat with the waitress — she spoke a bit of English, was incredibly enthusiastic, and genuinely passionate about her work and service.
This was such a fantastic experience and truly made my day. Highly recommended! I’ll definitely try to come back again if time allows during my short stay.
Good job, Shifu — Arigatō gozaimasu! 🍜✨

We enjoyed here the duck ramen, the miso ramen and all the other small dishes. In fact the ramens were so special that we came back to check it again after eating it here and there and Yes! We were absolutely sure that it was the best ramen in Los Cristianos! I discovered hot lemonade with honey here and I fell in love with duck ramen. I will definitely come back. Thank you.

What a hidden pearl! Fantastic food to a reasonable price 🙏 It is right by Los Cristianos beach, but super anonymus from the outside. I have literally past it more than 100 times without having an extra look. Drop the tourist restaurants and walk 50 meters extra for this pearl 🤩 Highly recommend!

It's a fantastic anime restaurant. Loved the ramen, the posters on the wall, the menu is epic... I found all my favorite characters around me. It was a first time to eat ramen with naruto... My bucket list was to eat real ramen with naruto topping. This was also fulfilled and it was very delicious. Super portions, great value for money. A must-see and try for anime fans. But for everyone else too.😍🤤🥰
