Best Ramen!! Im from Portland and whenever I'm in bend this is the first place we go to! Food is delicious!!! Wish it was closer

"...sometimes what heart know, head forget." Mr. Miyagi Sometimes my mind can forget how much I love ramen, so thankfully "Miyagi Ramen" provided the words that my heart needed to help my mind recall how much I love ramen. You know that you're in the right place when the smell you experience while ordering transports you to a place of bliss long before your meal arrives. The anticipation is seriously powerful! While you should absolutely come here primarily for the ramen, please don't overlook the salad options. The "Cabbage Salad" featured a great combo of flavors accentuated masterfully by the wasabi almonds. When it comes to your ramen choices there are 4 primary options, but the staff was super flexible about permitting sub in/sub out alternatives, so customizing your order feels effortless. For this reason, and also because of the formal menu options, your Vegan pathways are numerous. I sampled the Spicy Miso Ramen and they exaggerated about the "spicy" designation in no manner. Spicy when it's on your tongue is one thing, but still spicy by the time it hits the back of your throat is next gen hotness. Seriously, you'll need a napkin for your mouth and some facial tissues for your runny nose! While each of us sampled a different ramen, one of our Review Team Members summed up the universality of ramen greatness perfectly when she stated, "Ramen just warms your soul." And that's...Henry's Take. #bendramen #ramenjustwarmsyoursoul read more

Great food and big improvements with new take out system. I would often be missing items in my order or have to wait forever when ordering to pick up. My fave go to for ramen! read more

Food was a 4.5 out of 5. Only reason it wasn't perfect is one dish we got was soggy and cold. I've read a couple other reviews with basically that complaint as the only negative. Ramen was by far the best I had ever had. The crispy chicken was amazing too. Service: they add a "3% Health & Wellness" charge to every bill. Is it alarming to anyone else that the customer is responsible for the employee's health and wellness? To add to this, you order up front, grab your own utensils and water, and seat yourself. The only service here is someone brings you the food. Also, at the beginning when you buy your food, the gratuity box pops up and they give you an auto populated option of 25%, 20% and 15% (or custom). Why on earth would a practically self-serve restaurant have 25% or 20%, on top of a 3% 'Health and Wellness' that goes toward whatever that means? I'd totally pay 28% gratuity if the restaurants employees earned it. Atmosphere: Super cool looking, in and out. A little tight on seating, but it wasn't an issue for the time of day we were there. The music though, LOUD! I had never done this before, but it was so loud I looked on my watch at the decibels. 82! I looked online and saw 80 is the equivalent to an alarm. Lol. Expect to speak loudly with your friends when you're here. read more

The family and I got away a few days to Bend. The day before we stumbled upon The Box Factory near the Old Mill District and decided the following day we would go and have lunch at one of the restaurants there. Just so happens one of places we wanted to try was closed for for lunch, so we ended up wanting to try Miyagi Ramen. Boy, glad we did. We walked in and we were greeted by 2 young ladies working up front that did a fantastic job giving great service. It wasn't very busy so we were served pretty quickly. I tried the Chicken Paitan Ramen. Very good, not to spicy, Chicken was tender, the sprouts and bamboo shoots worked well together. Another good thing was the portion size. I took half of it with me. Overall a very good experience. The vibe was very cool. It was the standard, eclectic Bend vibe. I liked they happened to be playing 70's disco, Motown music. I would say if you come to Bend, Miyagi Ramen is a must try. Then go shopping, go wine tasting there at The Box Factory. So a shout out to the ladies working on 7/16 for lunch. You did great. Next time we are in Bend we will come back for more ramen. read more

When the family visits Bend, this is a must stop for us. Five separate visits, it never disappoints!

This ramen was DELICIOUS! Definitely more of a fast sit down vibe where you order at the counter and then they'll let you know when a table is available vs full restaurant service. I got their vegan mushroom ramen but subbed out the tofu for chicken - wow, chef's kiss. The fries also slapped and were served with crunchy pork belly. read more

We came on Tuesday nite and it was not very busy. We ordered the tonkatsu and spicy miso ramen. There were about 4 other parties. After waiting for 30 mins the first kid meal showed up and then another 5-10 for our full order to come through. The noodles was decent but the pork belly is different. Instead of normal thin slices they came in thick chunks. It was fried egg instead of soft boil. The portion is good, but it just wasn't what we expect for a ramen. If you have time to kill and enjoy a fusion ramen, this is for you. read more

Delicious ramen with many gluten free options. Good price and fun vibe. Went on a sunny day when the big doors were up. Want to go back and try more. read more

I have only ordered food to go, it's always on time and the food is great, the buns are my family's favorites

Food was excellent, ambiance was fun, service was polite. The serving sizes were very large. I probably could have split a bowl with my wife. Prices were high but expected for quality food in Bend. We will definitely eat here again! read more

Miyagi Ramen - Spicy Miso Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Ramen is decent, but Everything else is terrible. It's basically run by teenagers now. The music is loud thumping house music, and the seats are terrible. The tables were filled up dirty bowls. They couldn't bother to put the silverware into the separate containers. There was just a bin of mixed spoons, forks, etc anywhere to pick through to get your own silverware. The place was a complete disaster while the people working there stood and texted on their phones. Prices went up and they're ridiculous. Not only today try to expect a 20% tip for absolutely no service, but now they are charging a health fee, which is for their healthcare. Absurd. Bad vibes. This is a pass for me now. read more

Staff were great but I could barely eat my Chicken Paitan. OMG the egg was so runny & even thinking about the runny white snot mixed in my ramen an hour later still makes me nauseous. The amount of chicken to my dish was no more than my pinkie finger & I had to pull veins & fat out of that. This restaurant was recommended to us by a local. Never ever ever again. The only highlight was my amazing cider but that came in a can & I had to ask for a cup of ice because the can was warm. read more

Who would have thought I would find one of the better ramen spot in OR in Bend!? Weren't really expecting much but all their menu items were amazing. The broths were delicious regardless of what the ramen was. The Tonkotsu ramen has a simpler but creamy broth while the Spicy Miso and Yuzu Tan Tan have more spices and kick to them. The yuzu in the Tan Tan worked surprisingly well, making the ramen very refreshing. Good portion of noodles and toppings as well. There was a line forming right after they opened so definitely go at off hours but DO go check them out! read more

I visited Miyagi right around when they first opened and was underwhelmed for sure. At the time, they had a chicken wing appetizer that was pretty tasty, but the ramen itself was under-seasoned. I finally went back last Friday with some friends, two of whom had never had ramen and one who had a similar experience to my initial experience. This time was totally different! I ordered Tonkotsu, which I ordered the 1st time so I could conduct a true comparison. This time the broth was well seasoned and had the unctuous quality I expect in a Tonkotsu broth. I added the picked shiitake and found they were a really nice addition. I was also impressed by the quality and amount of chashu they put in the ramen! The other 3 guys order the spicy miso ramen and all 3 were stoked on how good it was. I tasted the broth and was impressed. Spice level is fairly high, def not a wimpy spice. I look forward to ordering it next time. My buddy also ordered the chicken buns and said they were really good. I'm glad I came back and will be back again in the near future. A hot bowl of ramen on a cold winter day sounds pretty damn good to me! read more

My three positives and a negative because the world needs more positivity: + the spicy miso ramen was outstanding. I don't normally like spicy food but this was outstanding. I added a soft egg (which was a nice touch). The pork bits were scrumptious + hubby enjoyed his smoked shiitake cashew ramen. It was vegan with a rich broth + the miyagi wings had a good sweet flavor - things came out a bit sporadically. It was busy but we did get our appetizer at the end of our meal read more

So simple, so old, so done well for Bend... Thanks for taking a chance on this... YELP Short Answer: Oh, yes get there. Location: Box Factory area of Old Mill in Bend. Parking can suck in peak seasons but parking and walking is pretty easy. Building and seating: Cool urban design with outdoor options year round. Menu: Limited, simple, and the way it needs to be in a Ramon hut. Food Prep: very simple, appropriate, and nice... they care, kudos to manager who is excellent. Food: Excellent broth and noodle, I am not a Ramon snob but lived in Japan for a couple of years... I like it, seems like they have done their research blending Asian and Bend... Wait Staff: Have always been very nice, quick, and efficient to let people eat but turn tables as they place gets slammed. Value: Yes, great value. Hope you visit... it is worth the wait. read more

Maybe it was just my night. I felt the music wasn't bad, we could hear our table talk without yelling. The place was clean, the staff friendly. The person who waited on us spent the time to explain the new menu options and answer our questions. The ramen was awesome. Probably the best vegan ramen I've ever had. The broth was a smoked mushroom hazelnut. It also has roasted tomatoes, they were really good. I'm don't always eat vegan but that option really sounded good and it did not disappoint. The spicy miso was definitely spicy but not in a bad or over the top way. Will definitely return next time I am in town. Hopefully the string of less than stellar reviews will change cause we had a great experience and had great ramen. read more

Less salt next time would be great . Sticking to pho it's so much better and lots of flavor. . read more

Best American ramen I've had outside of Manhattan!! And I was treated like a queen! What'd I'd do for the broth recipe!! THANK YOU!

In Bend for work and wanted to give this place a try on a cold night. Walked in and there's little to no room to wait while folks ordered before being seated. The group of 5 ordering were having a great conversation with the cashier about many things and, after 5 min, I sat down at the closest open chair. I figured I'd order when the line went down. I'm responding to emails on my phone when a gentleman asks me if I've ordered and I shared that I was waiting for the line to go down. I was sitting at a table for 6 with a group of 4 on the other side. I'm eating solo. I was told I need to wait in line to order. I decided that I'd eat elsewhere, so I can't comment on the food. But, I will suggest that the management team focus on order intake to reduce the wait time and be more understanding for those who would choose to sit rather than stand before ordering. read more

Great Ramen and great location.. Bobby is great as is the rest of the staff. Looking forward to coming back and trying the rest of the menu.

I can put up with completely obnoxious trendy hipster bs restaurants but your food better be worth it and at Miyagi it certainly is not. Mediocre tasting small portions of ramen that takes 30 minutes to make. I've also never seen a semi cooked gloopy slimy poached egg in ramen before. The bowls look large until you realize it's as shallow as a teacup. It was definitely a new experience leaving a ramen place hungry. Hey, let's not talk about the food or the service though. Lets talk about what Miyagi Ramen really cares about... how totally cool and trendy they are you guys omg! They have chairs that make your whole soul hurt after sitting on them for more than 5 minutes, minimalist wood pain stumps are in! Their staff is too cool and aloof for you, boomer. Music? Oh yeah we play all our favorite hits at fullest volume we can, conversations at the table are a massive L. Decor? You mean giant trash graffiti wall? We got you fam. If this place spent a quarter of the effort into the food as it put in trying to be cool it might actually be worth it. read more

WOW! This place has such a fun late night ambience. It was a great date-night for my husband and I to get a bowl of Ramen on a late Thursday night. As a vegetarian Ramen places can be a little hit or miss, and it tends to be more noticeable as the absence of meat. But, Miyagi Ramen was not the case! The vegan Ramen I got was so flavorful and satisfying, it did not feel thin at all. This is the best Ramen I have personally went to, and I never thought it would be in Bend, Oregon (instead of LA, Seattle or anything). This Ramen pairs really well with the local Bend Breweries, so you can have dinner than walk to Immersion Brewing or Crux! read more

I really like Miyagi. The spicy miso ramen is extremely good. The service is decent, vibes are good, food is good....but the thing that seems to consistently be an issue is the cleanliness of the restaurant. Always feels a little grimy, like oily fingerprints on the cups and what not. Definitely recommend it for the ramen, but I hope they can clean it up a bit. read more

Tonkotsu ramen. Got an extra ramen egg because I love ramen eggs and both were completely runny and just broke apart with yolk all in the ramen. Broth tastes off with a weird tang. Took an hour to get the ramen and it was expensive read more

Miyagi Ramen - Tonkotsu Ramen - Ramen Near Me - Bend, Oregon

Ordered takeout- which was a 45 minute wait itself Got home there was no broth with the Ramen and the chicken Karrage was over fried and hard as a rock, basically hollow inside and paper dry. I drove back to get the broth, the two girls 5'4-6 brunette and blond were very rude. They offered a refund but only gave a refund on the kids ramen and not the karrage like they were supposed to. Left very disappointed at the food and service. The place wasn't even that " busy" with empty tables but all the kids working there need proper training. Will never order again read more

10 out of fxckin' 10 ramen . Probably the best ramen I've eaten in the U.S. I was raised in Japan and nothing can ever compare to that but this is top tier. Definitely a different ramen restaurant experience but the perfect hole in the wall. If you don't like loud music and a new experience GTFO. Literally a meal you have to sit in the car for ten minutes after to digest and reset before continuing on your day . Staff is super nice I love what they're doing for their employees **health and wellness** We'd definitely come back :) read more

When we entered this place it was empty and the music was blaring. That was fine as the employees were probably enjoying themselves. However, once we sat down it continued to be extremely loud. As a musician and lover of music, this was not how I want to eat or try to have a conversation over. About halfway through our meal the music was finally lowered. Granted, I could've asked to lower it, which I didn't, but there's more to why I only gave this place 2 stars. When we sat down, the tables and the floors were dirty. If the place was packed this would be acceptable, but like I said, it was empty. Additionally, the bench that we sat on was sticky (couldn't slide) like it was covered in a dirty film. Thirdly, the food. Some of the food was good. However, the edamame and and the kids ramen was not. The edamame came in a large bowl filled halfway (which made it look like you got a skimpy portion) and some of them were cold, others warm. The child's ramen was just meat, noodles and broth instead of a child size version of the real thing. This would be fine if it was stated like that on the menu, but I (and my kid) was under the impression it was a full ramen dish. Lastly, the menu itself was a bit confusing since it had 3 ramens to choose from at the top and then a bunch of "add ins" that were already in the 3 above. I figured it was a make your own ramen option, which it was, but it wasn't very clear or laid out well. The staff was friendly but overall, I probably would not eat here again. read more

Visiting Bend has been a fun food adventure. It's only day 2 and we've discovered more great places to eat. Miyagi Ramen is a place we'll definitely return to. The menu has a variety for everyone's tastes. Our family group of six chose lots of dishes: ramen, rice bowls, steamed buns, yakitori and the cabbage salad. Everyone loved their food. The flavors are complex, but straightforward at the same time. Delicious. The only thing I would have wished for is the same quality between the same dish. My steamed chicken bun was dry, colder and "older" tasting. But my daughter had to wait an extra few minutes to receive hers and when it came, it was freshly prepared, hot and perfectly cooked. I wanted a do over for my chicken bun! We'll go again and try more menu items. The service from the cashier guy was friendly and wonderful. Great food. read more

There's good news and bad news. Bad news first: Mr Miyagi does not work there teaching karate. Good news: The ramen and service are amazing. Bad news (again): I still don't know karate. read more

Great ramen and great vibe. Their spicy miso ramen was pretty good rich in flavor. It was great they also had a kids meal. They got the chicken kaarage ramen. Make sure to ask them to have the kaarage on the side as it was a bit soggy. Very friendly and quick service.? read more

I almost don't want to review this because I want to keep it less busy and more five star reviews will bring more people. But I'm not that selfish. I don't need to write a book on this ramen, though I could. It's simply the best ramen you'll have. That's all there is to it. It's incredible, it's perfect, it's consistently the best, it's absolutely worth the high price for a bowl of noodles. I got the Spicy Miso Ramen and if you don't know what to get, just go with this. Just go with this because it's scrumptious and perfect and I want to be buried with this ramen. I added an egg and extra heat- power move. My mom got the Smokey Chicken one, I can't remember the name. But holy cow it was good. I didn't expect it to be so good, frankly. Because Smokey Chicken Ramen sounds kind of "eh" to me. All I want for the rest of my life is Miyagi ramen. Any gift I'm given for future birthdays or Christmas gifts I would like to be Miyagi ramen. My food pyramid consists of only Miyagi Ramen. My entire monthly budget for restaurants is for Miyagi Ramen. read more

A different take on the vegetarian ramen. There was an added sweetness to the broth. Not bad just different. It was a busy day but we were seated fairly quickly. The process was different. You have to order first and pay before you get to your table. Service was fast and food came out within the reasonable amount of time. We enjoyed the freshness of the food, flavor and service. Overall a great experience. Definitely a must try! read more

Decided to try again. Still loud music and uncomfortable seating. Prices have gone up with arbitrary health tax. Grrrrr! No service! Really bad Chashu pork in the Spicy Miso. Funny tasting chicken in the Chicken Ramen. Very dissapointing at a high price. This time not returning!!!!! read more

Delicious ramen! I had the Smoked Shitake-Cashew (Vegan) which has tofu, pickled shitake, baby bok choy, slow-roasted tomatoes, scallions, and pea shoots. I added a soft cooked egg to my order. So tasty and pretty! We sat outside because we brought our dog with us and it worked out well. Good service despite being a busy place. read more
