The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
The operator’s chef biography explicitly dates the move to the current Yasaka-dori restaurant to 2006. January 1 is a year-only timeline anchor, not a confirmed month or day. The earlier 1997 founding, 2002 move and August 2023 renovation are separate events. October 16, 2026 was the research date, not this branch opening.

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most. A picture that shows something else, or shows it badly, is looked at too, and moved down or replaced.
