Miyagi Ramen

20 Exceptional Restaurants in Bend, Oregon

"Named for the Karate Kid master, this Industrial Way restaurant is as stylish as it is exceptional. Local artist Richard Yozamp provided the expansive art piece that gives the small restaurant a hip feel, and a garage-door window wall rises to open up the space on nice days. Miyagi offers a choice of three ramen, including a smoked shiitake-cashew-based soup; pea shoots, spicy tofu, pickled shiitake, and more create a mesh of umami, salty, sour, and sweet. Meat eaters can add a soft egg and chashu pork belly for protein and richness. Those that aren’t up for soup can choose from yakitori skewers, rice bowls, and fat, stuffed steam buns." - Barb Gonzalez, Jeffrey Stull
