Mirakutei Sushi & Ramen

I have been coming here for years. In my opinion this is one of the most underrated sushi restaurants in town. A hidden gem, truly. Their food is always fresh, creative, and beautifully plated. The servers are friendly and knowledgeable. Parking is surprisingly not bad, at most I’ve had to park 2-3 blocks away. Atmosphere wise, sometimes I wish they would dim their lights sooner, or maybe even modernize the space with new decor and art. Lots of blank wall space, but also really chic and clean in the regard. Did I mention their sake list is super robust and absolutely delicious? Anyway, definitely come here if you love sushi, sake, and a good time.

Insane. Delicious. Solid recommendations from the wait staff and even more delightful eats. The Pacific Northwest roll, salmon flight, and miso with Ramon plus egg plus pork was incredible. Definitely favorite sushi and ramen in Portland.

Great ambiance | Great Service | Delicious Wow, it was our first time coming here. The whole aesthetic/ atmosphere is beautiful. I loved the colors and textures used. It’s very clean and organized. We were greeted and seated quickly. Our waitress was great and tended to our needs. We ordered miso soup, edamame, salmon flight sashimi, chicken skewers, Sapporo miso ramen without egg and gluten free noodles, and green tea. Miso soup was excellent and served at perfect temperature. Not salty and the seaweed was thicker than other places. They give more edamame than most places too! The Salmon sashimi was delicious and beautifully presented. The Sapporo Ramen was delicious! That broth was so good, not salty! Highly recommend this one, and if you want to add some spice, you can request the spicy version. The pork slices were perfect with not too much fat but full of flavor. Loved that the toppings were the right amount so that when you’re down to eating noodles, you still have enough corn and sprouts with every bite. We will be back. This is a great lunch and dinner spot in a good location.

By far our favorite sushi place in Portland, and high on the list for a ramen spot! It’s a good balance between quality and price, with nothing outrageously priced but def not sacrificing quality anywhere. Presentation is also beautiful. We have loved every roll we’ve tried and have almost gotten through the whole list. They have this spicy pesto that i haven’t had in a roll anywhere else - order it, trust me. You can go casually but it’s also a great date night place!

A really great ramen and sushi West Ryan! They have tons of specials and the staff was very friendly as well. A half mile walk from the convention center, in a decent part of town but has some rough parts. They also had a very nice drink selection.

Ordered the Hello Kitty and Lotus Roll special. Loved the Lotus Roll, and the Hello Kitty was fine but not my favorite, honestly that’s on me I probably should have read the menu more closely. Also a little expensive but I overall recommend this restaurant!

I think the food quality here is some of the best in Portland that I've had. The lobster roll is fire and they had bluefin tuna belly which was rich and satisfying. Edamame was properly cooked and seasoned and they have a great sake selection. Will be back.

Kaizen Roll Beautiful presentation!! If you like spicy, this is a must-try for you!!!!❤️‍🔥 Spicy tuna and cucumber wrapped up tight, then topped with buttery hamachi, creamy avocado, and a kick of jalapeño! Drizzled with wasabi aioli, yuzu tobiko, and ponzu sauce — every bite is a flavor party. Fresh, spicy, tangy, and totally addictive.🍣🔥💚

Mirakutei is by for the best food experience I've ever had anywhere by far. The ambience is amazing and super calming. The food is at a whole other level than any restaurant in all of Portland. Most importantly, the service. The manager on duty that doubled as our server for the night was Jordan. He checked up on us at the perfect times and educated us on the full menu. His tenacity and genuine care for our whole restaurant experience the best service and overall experience I have ever had anywhere. Please praise him for all his great work and keep him for as long as possible. As long as Jordan works at Mirakutei you can guarantee I will be at a table at least once a week or more.

In Portland for a conference and wanted sushi. I took them trolley down to another sushi spot that was closed for the day. Mirakutei was the closest spot to me so I walked a few blocks down to check it out. I was greeted and seated within a minute of getting in there. It was pretty chill, only a few other people were there (this was around 5p on a Wednesday). The menu had lots of options so that was nice. The waitress was so helpful when it came to making a drink I would like. I wanted to make sure I wouldn't have to ask for anything else so I ordered a ginger beer along with my Rum-Markable. Both were really tasty. I had the Hello Kitty roll and it was so good. Very filling. If I had the room, I would have ordered the matcha cheesecake. It sounded really good. I really liked my waitress. She was super helpful and made sure I had everything I needed. If I have another time to eat off site before I leave, I'll want to try this place again.

Though my experience here was super brief, it was pleasant. I came for late lunch on a weekday so it was very quiet. We got seated right away, with food being served fairly quickly as well. We ordered the hello kitty roll, trail blazer roll, spicy scallop roll, and the salmon avocado roll. Each bite from the traditional rolls were just as yummy as the specialty rolls. The server was friendly and attentive, though our interactions were few because we were in and out for a quick lunch. The restaurant is very well lit with many big windows making the restaurant look super welcoming and clean.

Service: 7/10 good Ambiance: 7/10 nice date night vibes Food: 7/10 Cucumber salad: 8/10 I don't like cucumbers but these are great. Rice wine vinegar & sugar dressing with seaweed & sesame on top were absolutely perfectly balanced. Very impressive. Genki Ramen: 8/10 probably the best ramen I've ever had. The broth was dynamite. The meat was so well seasoned and flavorful. Noodles weren't over cooked. The texture of the bean sprouts on top were a great touch. Very good dish. Sushi: 6/10 I'm underwhelmed by sushi, my wife thought it was good. Fresh tasting but nothing to write home about

Sushi is always a go-to for me when I don't know what I'm craving. Portland has its fair share of sushi restaurants from conveyer belt to omakase, and Mirakutei is a great option for good-quality-don't-break-the-wallet sushi. Mirakutei has two locations around Portland and each is beautifully designed. While they don't take reservations, there's plenty of seating and we were able to get seated right away. We got the Kaizen roll, Albacore roll, and Salmon Aburi roll. They were all great! The fish tasted fresh and each roll was beautiful. It is a great mid-level tier quality sushi, and I mean this in the best way possible. It's not pretentious nor is it stingy. It is a great option if you want sushi, but want to avoid getting it from the grocery store. Service was also friendly and welcoming! Overall, a great experience and I will be back!

A little hesitant as there was not one Japanese employee among the seven I saw. However, after I learned about the previous long time owner selling to the current owner, which apparently was his sous chef, maybe it doesn't matter. The experienced started with the Rum-Arkable cocktail, so good and a fair sized pour. From there it was the edamame and a large variety of rolls, many colorful and laden with sauces that might turn off sushi purists. The Burnside Bridge roll was one of our favorites. Anything crab is listed as "crab salad", it wasn't as good as other places. The only dish that was meh was the saba nigiri. Service was very friendly.

TLDR; I'm a fan, I'd recommend it if you're in the area Context - Dine in (I do not typically stick to vegetarian diet but I was dining in with someone who is Vegan & another who is Vegetarian so I was eating the same as we were sharing dishes. I am also from OC, CA) Food I'd order again - Vegetarian Ramen, the tastiest vegetarian broth I've had. The Garden Roll, nice and fresh roll with Veggie Tempura, I was skeptical on this one but it had a great bite Ambiance & Staff - Nice establishment, could very much see this being a great date night spot though not sure how loud it gets when busy. Staff was all really pleasant and attentive Wait Time - 0, we walked in on a weekday and were sat immediately.

Ambiance: 5/5 Mirakutei is a very nice restaurant with a cozy ambiance. The lanterns at night were my favorite decor, adding a warm and inviting feel. It's a great spot for date nights! Service: 4/5 We ordered two rounds of food. The first round came out in a decent time, but we waited around 20 minutes for the second round, which was a bit too long and made us lose some of our appetite. It seems they wait to serve everything together, but the delay was noticeable. The host/manager was great, but the girl taking our order forgot a couple of items, which caused us to wait even longer. Despite this, the staff remained friendly throughout. Food: 5/5 We tried several dishes, including: Monkey Brain Salmon Flight Oregon Roll Mirakutei Scallops and Uni Dynamite Salmon Dragon Roll The sushi here is fantastic! Every item was fresh and delicious, but the Monkey Brain and Salmon Flight were the standout favorites for my family and me. High-quality sushi that doesn't break the bank--definitely worth a visit! Overall: The first time I came with my boyfriend, we had an amazing 5/5 experience that was even better than this visit, unfortunately. I hope next time will be just as great as the first!

I'm frankly shocked Mirukatei doesn't have a 5-star rating. Trust me when I say it's among the best - if not THE best - sushi and ramen in Portland. The service is always spot on. The sushi chefs cut the fish generously AND extremely aesthetically. Rice is perfect. Creative but non-gimmicky rolls you won't see elsewhere. Honestly - ignore the complainers and go!

My friend and I came here for girls date night and the place was nice. Well decorated. Big windows to let in a lot of light. Service was a tad slow. It was very quiet and I believe we had to remind the waitress of something we had ordered. And at one point our waitress went on break, which is fine, but we didn't have another server help us during her break. The drinks were sneaky. They sneak up on you! They were delicious and you could barely taste the alcohol and suddenly, it hits you. The flavor of the drinks, were chef's kiss. The sushi itself was decent.

Came in for dinner on a Monday, staff was friendly. Miso soup was good, warmed us up! Place is very cute, didn't realize how big it was until we walked around the side. Very natural looking and great for date night. Food was good! Came out all at once but the fish was very fresh and melted in your mouth. It was pricey but worth it for the quality.

Came here and I had a great time! The inside has a great ambiance there's plenty of natural lighting due to the (essentially) floor to ceiling windows. And, in the evening, the lighting is so cozy and makes the place feel warm. Service here was so thoughtful and amazing. We ordered a couple drinks, takoyaki, nigiri, and a salmon aburi roll. The drinks were amazing and I loved them. The takoyaki was also delicious and crispy on the outside, but I wish there was a bit more sauce on them. All of the nigiri and roll was great--nothing that was exceptionally spectacular, but I would definitely come back. As I didn't get to try the ramen this time, I would love to come again to try it next time!

We ate here before going to the Christmas Eve service at our church. The ambiance is nice, fairly quiet, the service friendly and helpful. The ramen, sushi, and tempura we enjoyed very much. On a cold, rainy evening, the ramen warms and satisfies. Try the Sapporo ramen.

This place hits the spot everytime. The sushi is fresh and the presentation is next level. The staff is very friendly and they seem to remember the regulars. I love the avocado roll and the classic Philadelphia!

Took a road trip down to Portland from our AirBNB in Seattle. After visiting the rose garden, we decided to get sushi of all things before we took the 3hr ride back to Seattle. I am so happy we stopped here. We caught a crew shift so the restaurant was empty but had a very nice ambiance companied with the traditional sushi chefs behind the counter. I highly recommend trying the ceviche mix, the crunch and the spicy tuna roll (not pictured) because each of us were in agreement that they were amongst the best we have ever tried. This place is a gem. 5/5.

Amazing food! The service was super friendly and kind, and they made sure to double check our food after we finished ordering. Also, the food arrived so fast only after 5-10 minutes after ordering, which was surprising because most restaurant's take 10/-25 minutes for all the food to come. The place was also very neat and clean, with lots of plants and greenery. The lamps were very pretty too. I had no complaints about Mirakutei Sushi and Ramen! :)

The food here is always delicious, even when you order for pick up. The staff is always really welcoming and polite, and it is always busy, but we've never had to wait. My only gripe would be the pick-up instructions not being read. I specifically asked for the 3 rolls I ordered to be packed separately, and though that printed on the receipt, it was either ignored or overlooked. If you aren't going to follow the notes, don't ask for them.

WOW - the sushi is incredible! I don't typically find myself in this neighborhood so had not visited yet, but glad I did. The fish was clearly high quality, the flavors incredible, and just all around delicious food. I love how big and open the indoor seating is. The service was the only disappointment- not sure if they were a newer server but they forgot several things and would rarely check on us. But forgivable - would definitely return.

We were disappointed by another restaurant, so we came here for a second dinner. The staff was friendly, helpful, kind, and efficient. We tried the vegetable tempura and two sushi rolls. The crunch roll was delicious and the garden roll (vegetarian) was exquisite. We watched them make sushi from the sushi counter and their presentation was beautiful. Excellent!

Driven by this place plenty of times but never knew it existed until I searched on Yelp! It's on burnside so expect to park a block or two away since the area is a little busier but don't let that stop you! We came in around 6pm on Saturday and it was pretty quiet. We were seated right away and the food came quick after ordering. More people started to show up after us. I could definitely see this place more packed closer to 7:30pm! Ordered the chicken karrage to start and 3 rolls (B-side 6, salmon avocado, dynamite roll) plus maguro sashimi. Definitely a good amount of food for 2 people. The sashimi was super fresh. I can't remember the last time I had tuna that fresh. All three of the rolls were delicious, but if I had to choose a favorite roll it would be the dynamite. Loved the decor inside and the staff was very friendly and attentive. Can't wait to come back next time I'm craving sushi.

Sorry, idk why this place is rated so highly. It's pretty to look at, but really nothing to rave about. I really expected more considering the "award winning" label at the door, but I wish I went to the other one across the street. Here we go, FOOD: Mirakutei Roll - These were some CHONKY fish pieces, which I loved. Rice was bland as if there were no vinegar/seasoning & it was a little bloated rather than sticky. Overall, no flavor. Sapporo Ramen - Noodles were nice, I like the chew to it. Sliced white onions & bean sprouts? Definitely different... these belong more in pho tbh. Broth? It was alright, not too memorable. Chashu? Ya'll can keep it. It was. THICC and DRY and CHEWY. Zero flavor and it took so much effort to bite a piece off. Tonkotsu Ramen - Spicy had a kick. A good kick. The broth was a little better in this one and the ingredients made a little more sense. But again, THE CHASHU... Also the egg was cooked so nicely but it was literally so bland it didn't make sense... because it was brown on the outside... meaning it should've been marinated???? Idk. AMBIENCE: Clean. That's all I got. It's a nice spot. SERVICE: I think they kinda forgot about our table. We didn't get water, plates, condiments... we didn't even get to order lol and it wasn't even busy. I think they were about to start a meeting or something cause that's when the girl noticed & then they all did the "" and you could see the "oh sh*t" and then the sprinting LMAO. Honestly, that part was whatever. I've been on both sides. It definitely wasn't on purpose, but it also didn't make the experience better. I'd just be more careful :/ I'm sure the staff is chill. The food just wasn't it for us. PRICE: Two bowls + one roll = almost $60 With no adjustments or add-ons

Eh fairly mediocre. The Pork Slice was quite strange for ramen and not that good. Tonkotsu ramen had a bit too much ginger (and probably didn't need carrots). Edible but there is better ramen out there. Spicy Tuna roll was fine.

Ramen was good but sushi was not great. Service was average, not sure we will come again.

Definitely a must try again....Please inquire about their story which is not only inspiring but why I want ur help to support local business with great food but AMAZING cocktails!!! You wanna try the Sake Kamikaze!!!! I dare you to try and only drink one!!!

Super quick service and extremely polite and attentive. I ordered the traditional ramen. Very tasty. The pork was quite unique in its flavor and definitely delicious. The place I've always gone to had a 30-minute wait, and here was this place just around the corner. They do sushi as well, so I have a lot of menu to work through.

We passed this on our way sightseeing and decided to circle back and eat here We're so glad we did The service was prompt and polite, and our food came quickly We each had the karaage, my husband had the lobster roll, I had the steak kabobs and seaweed salad Everything was so good and the service continued to be available and friendly throughout our time dining I would recommend this spot to friends and family anytime and we plan to come back again

Food was quick and delicious! The sushi tasted really fresh. Service was great as well! Will be back.

The miso soup is delicious. Staff were welcomely and patient and gave more recommendations of what to order. The prices are typical high-quality sushi.

The Sapporo Miso Ramen is delicious. The Hamachi Carpaccio is beautiful and a great cut of quality fish. Great staff, welcoming and friendly and also very knowledgeable. Their consistency of quality and in sources of fish has made them my favorite ramen/sushi combo restaurant in Portland. Comfortable and always a good vibe in there. Thank you Mirakutei!

Best sushi I've had in awhile! Get the oysters on the half shell if you go. Service was great!

Food was amazing. We were seated quickly and the food came out promptly. We ordered the gyoza and then miso soup for starters, but the soup never came out. Server didn't check in on us, and it took far too long to get our child's kids chopsticks, so he struggled to eat. But the food was amazing and we would definitely come back. Hoping this is a learning moment for the service, as everything else was spectacular.

Went here for the first time this week and it was AMAZING. We came in during a week day later in the night and we practically had the place to ourselves, our waiter Karra had superb service. The food was delicious to say the least and the menu had a good variety of options to choose from. The atmosphere was also great, very calm, dim, and somewhere you can get lost talking while eating for hours. We ordered veggie ramen, hello kitty (must try), and miso soup!

It was a rainy rainy day, as it typically is in the PNW, and I decided to pop in here quite last minute with some friends for piping hot ramen. There is actually a decent bit of seating inside so me and my friends (party of 4) had no problems being seated, even at our last minute visit. There are a fair number of rolls that look delicious but being my leaf eating self, I have to admit I just focused on the vegetarian rolls -- the tempura veggie roll was on my radar and I'll probably try it the next time I pop in. Being a rainy, cloudy day, you know I had to try the ramen more than anything else so veggie ramen it was! Honestly, such a solid vegetarian broth with some delicious roasted veggies inside. I was pleasantly surprised by how delicious the veggies were. There was a good amt of noodles and the taste overall was great! I didn't feel slighted with only one veggie ramen option since it was actually quite good. Pricewise, I'd say prices are very fair for what you get both in regards to quality and quantity. Service was friendly and overall this place made for a very cute dinner experience. Beware of street parking only -- but otherwise swing by for some great sushi and ramen!

Visited for a work lunch and our sushi came out on a boat! We ordered about 5 different specialty rolls and they combined them all onto this awesome boat! Definitely recommend for a group outing. This made it a really fun experience. The service and food was amazing as always. This spot is consistently good.

I love this place! Best ramen in town hands down. I've tried so many different ramen spots around town including the one right around the corner and I always find myself saying "Mirakutei's is better". Anytime family or friends come visit this place is anlways on the list and they are always happy. I typically get the house tonkotsu ramen and make it spicy and it's delicious every time. My husband gets their sushi and it's always so fresh and he loves it. Plus the restaurant is really pretty!

This place is great! Ordered a sushi roll for lunch and, due to a third-party site glitch, the restaurant prepared a different dish. When we caught the mistake, they were incredibly professional about getting me the right food at no charge. Both the host and sushi chef were so nice! Never dined in here, but the feel of the place when I picked up was great. Quiet enough for any kind of meetup. Very impressed, and the roll I ordered was excellent. I'll keep coming back for sure.

My daughter and I were here recently. We came for the Sushi (so I have no comment about the ramen). Everything we ordered was fresh, well prepared and generally delicious! We came early evening and there weren't many people, so the service was very quick. The servers were pleasant and attentive. The ambience is fairly stark (very clean and modern) relative to most Japanese restaurants I've eaten in, but then, I did not come for the ambience; I came for the food. I am planning a return visit very soon!

Mirakutei is my first stop every time I visit Portland... sometimes straight from their airport before I even go to my hotel. Everything about their tonkotsu is perfection. The broth is so rich, the pork is never tough, it just never misses. I wish I could visit more often just for this ramen!

overall ratings food: 2.8/5 service: 4/5 atmosphere: 4/5 price: $$$ value: not worth it we found out about this place thru an Instagram reel and were eager to try it out. first impressions walking into the restaurant, it was clean and modernly decorated. they have a large menu that includes appetizers, sushi, and ramen. the ramen portions were small for $17. the charred pork was overly burnt, leaving a burnt taste in the soup. not the best ramen. the gyoza were typical store-bought dumplings that tasted like every other ramen restaurant. the sushi was fresh and tasted good, but for the price, it was quite expensive. overall we spent around $100 (including tip) for two people for lunch. definitely some more affordable and tastier options available.

I really like this place! The ramen is really really good! We've been craving the ramen ever since we tried it! Definitely will be coming back! The sushi is pretty good too,but the ramen is just where it's at!

The place is very clean, sleek, and welcoming. Seas & tables accommodates both large and small groups. Visited during lunch, and the window make the place feel so zen, I'm sure it's even more beautiful at night. Great music. Great staff, great service! Food was great! I like that Mirakutei has both sushi and ramen, versus many places just have one rather than another. I definitely gravitated towards the sushi more though. There are a lot of speciality & classic rolls to choose from, in addition to appetizers & drinks. Presentation was excellent as well. I enjoyed the sushi boat that the food came out on, definitely a vibe. I'll definitely be coming back in the future during a different time of the day. I plan trying more things on their menu. Parking is the only downside I could think of, typical Portland!

Was looking into ramen spots before heading over to the airport and let me tell you, great decision to check this place out! Service and food were great! will definitely be back.

Great service, yummy food Baked Mussels - they smothered it in cream cheese, you can't even taste the mussels, don't get this Lobster Roll - great overall, the lobster is a bit under done, I liked it but I could see ppl not liking it Tonkotsu - rich creamy broth with thick noodles, char sui is a bit overdone but it was so satisfying

Very friendly service. Not sure if this place is on perpetual Island time, but thank goodness we weren't in a rush at 1:30 on a Saturday afternoon. Technically they weren't busy, with most of the tables being empty. The craft cocktails we had were tasty and once the baked mussels showed up, everything was very timely from there. All of the food was delicious and we will definitely go back.

Good food and good service, what more can you ask for! We ordered a lot of different sushi/rolls and also some hot food, we enjoyed everything! Some standouts: Agedashi Tofu - unlike other restaurants that pretty much give you one larger piece of tofu, here they give you 8 individually cubed, lightly fried pieces. With this presentation, they are able to give you a nice crunch texture on more surface area. It was also easier to share this way. Eggplant Tempura with Spicy Tuna - this was a really nice combination. The eggplant was well fried and bot oily. Each piece was topped with slpicy tuna wasabi tobiko, which added just a little more spice. Torched Salmon Belly - yum, it just melts in your mouth! Chef's Sashimi - all the fish was really fresh, most were unique, not the normal salmon, tuna, etc. The presentation was beautiful! Overall, we really enjoyed our meal and will be back.

irasshaimase!! You're always greeted by the sushi chefs when you walk in to this little spot. The greeting means welcome / come in. This place has about 12 tables inside and 6 outside. I think I've only been here once on the weekend when I had to wait for a table. (It's first come first serve I believe) Friendly folks. Fantastic food. This is actually one of my favorite Japanese spots. I get the small plates typically but the rolls are really good. I've never felt like it was a long wait for my food or had any issues. If you come at sundown on a nice day it's great to sit outside and watch the sunset. I'll post some pics. Also just realized I've already reviewed this place lol. That's how often I'm here

It was yummy!! I have no complaints. I ordered the spicy tuna and miso soup. Though the spicy tuna was not spicy, the sushi was refreshing and delicious.

Tonight my expensive Dragon Roll contained old, mushy mealy salmon in the middle. Our poke was quite mediocre as well. This place, once great, is reaaallllally slipping down hill.
