Masa Miyake opened Miyake Restaurant in June 2007 with the help of his wife, and soon only one other employee. Initial customers braved the hole-in-the-wall exterior and sparse interior to try Masa's unique cuisine. Influenced by years of experience at highly acclaimed French and Italian restaurants in Tokyo and New York, Masa has crafted a distinctive style of his own. Today, Miyake offers an elegant and modern dining experience in their new space on Fore street in Portland. Masa continues to create unique, inventive selections with roots in traditional Japanese, Italian and French culinary styles. The menu is designed to offer diners the opportunity to order a la carte, or from one of several of Miyake's signature omakase tasting menus.
We offer validated parking at the Union Street garage after 5pm Monday-Saturday.
