The 15 Best Portland, Maine Restaurants | Condé Nast Traveler

"The sister restaurant to Portland hotspot Miyake, Pai Men is no second-fiddle sibling. The crowds are here for the same meticulous cooking and delicate—albeit more casual—dishes embodying Japan by way of coastal Maine: remarkably fresh and inventive sushi, from-scratch steamed bun creations; and most of all, a glorious roster of ramen that takes the kitchen days to make. Starters like Hamayaki—broiled crab and scallop topping sushi rice, kewpie mayo, sansho pepper, and a slick of eel sauce—deserve their own cult. But it's really the ramen you're here for, and each one is a multi-layered symphony." - Alexandra Hall

A Handy Guide to Maine’s Best Ramen | Eater Maine

"Of course the chefs at Masa Miyake’s casual Japanese restaurant do ramen right. Choose from six kinds of ramen, all delivering rich flavor and housemade noodles. Beginners may want to start with the paitan ramen, which has a medium-light broth made from chicken and pork." - Kate McCarty

Pai Men Miyake - Review - Arts District - Portland, ME - The Infatuation

"When it’s 10 degrees and all you can possibly think about is sticking your face in the steam of a big bowl of soup, head to Pai Men Miyake for ramen. It’s the more casual sister restaurant of Miyake (a fancy Japanese restaurant in the city). We especially like the fatty paitan ramen - a mix of chicken and pork broth - and if you’re with a group, make sure to get some bao buns to start, and pick someone to investigate the chalk board with all the beer on tap written on it - these change all the time." - Hannah Albertine

You MUST try the buns here! Award winning and it shows. Crispy pork belly is on point(🤣I hate that expression ) ! Ramen is Amazing! We did lobster and Duck Ramen below. The soy eggs are a delicacy

Food was pretty tasty. the onogiri was okay, hard to eat unless you used your fingers and tasted a bit burnt. the nikuman pork buns were really tasty- great sauce! we had the paiken and chicken shio ramen. I loved the broth of both, especially the chicken one. and the seaweed in it was very delicious! ask for the spicy garlic paste! service was a bit discombobulated- inconsistent & not very attentive but the staff was friendly when they did come over

Did I come on a bad day? I went around 6pm and the service was great! The Brussels sprouts that everybody keeps rambling off about were Salty! I love salty food, but they were not edible. The waitress kindly took it off of my bill. The Miso Ramen was very mediocre. The pork belly was very fatty with a little bit of meat. Finally, I asked to try the pork buns that everybody loves so much and they gave me a bao bun with a big piece of pork belly in it with relish that you put on hotdogs and spicy mayo in it????? Do you guys call this great food?! I’m not sure what the standard in this town is…. The service was great but The food was NOT.

What a great place! Our server Ian was awesome and the food was amazing! It was a perfect end to our food crawl. Lobster bun and the Lady Salmon roll for the win. Definitely going back again!

Food was incredible! I got sushi and ramen. Caters well to those with gluten allergy. Highly recommend.

Decent ramen but it felt kinda whitewashed. Noodles weren't that good and the flavor of the broth was just ok. It would have been fine if it was cheaper but for the price we paid, it was definitely not worth it. Two ramen bowls and chicken karaage appetizer with no drinks was $65 after tax and tip. Best part was the appetizer but still nothing special. If I have to spend that much on Japanese food, there are many better places to go.

Perfect for a cold winter day. Shojin ramen with soy egg hit the spot. Homemade ramen have a nice chewy texture. Will come again!

Came here for comfort ramen. As per reviews we thought, how could we go wrong. The gyoza meat had no flavor, if it werent for dipping sauce its be pretty boring minus the crunch from frying. The ramen noodles were heavy and not as expected. Raw onion in soup with the ground meat gave the broth a very odd texture, couldn’t finish meal. Theres another soup spot across the street that was much better. Good music, cool eat at bar & outdoor seating. Good service. Mid food for city prices
