We hold 230 venues in San Francisco, CA and could score 133 of them. This one is not among them, so it has no position — not a low one.
There is no score breakdown to show: nothing we read about this venue earned points in any of the four categories, so a bar chart of zeroes would look like a verdict on the kitchen rather than on what it publishes. What we did read is below.
v1.7.4 0.0/100 = sourcing 0.0/50 (named-farm 0 distinct, named-region 0 distinct, attribute 0 distinct, buzzword 0 distinct) + farm partners 0.0/20 (none scored) + registry 0.0/12 (none listed) + press 0.0/18 (capped at 35% of the 0.0-point evidence base).
Buzzwords only. This venue uses sourcing language ("farm-fresh", "locally sourced") but names no farms, regions, or verifiable attributes.

“Nob Hill locals have loved Kuma Sushi since it opened in 2017, but as of this spring the restaurant has a sister spot in the Mission and it benefits from a [partnership with legendary Hayes Valley shop True Sake](/2023/2/22/23610538/kuma-sushi-new-restaurant-mission-san-francisco). That means that alongside a menu of straight-up sushi including Hokkaido scallops and firefly squid from the Hyogo prefecture, the new restaurant pours hard-to-find sakes selected by True Sake owner Beau Timken. * [Book a table](https://reservations.safegraph.com/reserve/7550?utm_source=safegraph&utm_campaign=poi) * [198 Valencia St, San Francisco, CA 94103, USA](https://www.google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=Kum”
