Yama Sushi Marketplace
Independence unverified
We hold 301 venues in Los Angeles, CA and could score 189 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; +15% corroboration lift from sourcing press) + 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.

Lifestyle coverage
- Yama Sushi Marketplace: Forty Years of Fresh Fish ↗
Culinary Backstreets
National lifestyle“Founding history: started as 'Yama Seafood' in 1984 by Kenzo Yamada ('Yama-san'), a fish broker who 'used to sell fish to all the restaurants and markets at the time' before opening his own counter; now run by the Kohno family. SCOPE NOTE (same shape as cycle 8's McCall's): this is a retail seafood-market/grab-and-go format, not confirmed as a sit-down restaurant -- flagged for the graph owner (venue_kind). Address ambiguous among 3 LA-area locations (San Gabriel/West LA/Koreatown); this content is brand-wide and not attributed to one specific address.”
