So you love sushi and are not able to make the trip to Tokyo. Well you’re all set if you land a table at Food Factory Miyake, which leads the way among the numerous sushi restaurants in Portland, Maine. Tucked away at 129 Spring Street, it’s not uncommon to see many customers coming and going from the restaurant, some finishing their great dining experience, and others checking on their table availability and heading back to a local bar to wait for a cell phone call letting them know a table has opened up for them.
