A famous restaurant in the neighborhood was denied

Title of the Wayspot: 大盛庵(Taisei-an)
Location:38.231358, 140.877866 City, Country:Sendai, Japan🇯🇵
This is a famous 🍜soba restaurant in Miyagi prefecture, Japan.
As a reason to recommend here:
- This corresponds to the "place where you can interact" in the guidelines🚶
- There is a unique menu "Tenchuka" ❤️ It is a food with shrimp🍤 on the Chinese soba. It looks good.
- Highly rated on Google Map(https://maps.app.goo.gl/BNCPHZ5EDpNcF1zc8) and Japanese review site "Tabelog" (https://tabelog.com/miyagi/A0401/A040105/4003414/)
- A long-established restaurant that has been open for about 50 years. I think it is a historically valuable restaurant.
- Safely accessible
- There is a parking lot nearby, so players can easily go there🚗
- Furthermore, the station is near🚇
I have already recommended it twice, but both have been denied. I want more people to know about this restaurant.
Please tell me your opinion.
Thank you for reading. Sorry for my bad English😔

Can you share screenshots of your nomination? We can offer the best advice if we can see your title, description, pictures and supporting information
Overall it sounds like a good place to nominate, but it's best to see the whole nomination
Parking lots and station nearby is irrelevant to the nomination. It being 50 years old doesn’t make it historically valuable for nominations. Having shrimp in the menu doesn’t make it unique. Highly rated on google may help but you need to probe how this place is unique above others. If its a local hotspot prove that with some kind of trip advisor, or really anything that can show that. Has it won any awards? Is there anything that makes it stand out
First recommendation
Second recommendation
Sorry for using Japanese.
This is Trip Advisor link:
And this shop is the third most popular soba restaurant in Miyagi prefecture.
The thing I've noticed is both times you upgraded it, which means it goes to reviewers from further away. Maybe if this is a restaurant that locals will have heard of, it's best not to upgrade it so that the local knowledge comes into play?
Restaurants are pretty hard to get accepted in a lot of places even though they are a great place to socialise, so the nomination has to be pretty perfect, and you either need some published proof to pursuade nationwide reviewers if you upgrade it, or hope for local reviewers who know it's a great place because they've heard of it and maybe visited it themselves.
So I'd say take on board all the improvement suggestions you get on this thread, and then when you submit, don't upgrade it unless you absolutely have to.
Upgrades are very useful for very easy-to-accept nominations, but anything requiring local knowledge means they can often fail.
I've already done quite a few reviews, so I'm worried about automatic upgrades.
Yeah I totally understand.
I would see if there is something else to submit that is a safe and obvious accept that doesn't need local knowledge (in the UK that would be public artwork, a church or a playground) and put 'upgrade next' that before submitting the restaurant again?
How long does the review take if I don't upgrade? I think it will take at least half a year, but how much is it actually?
I worried that forget this recommendation in half a year😶
It can take anywhere from a few days to a year or more depending on your area.
