Creating an Alias based on associated name

I have a summary of restaurnant location and sales data where there are multiple locations with the same name so I had to concatenate columns to create distinct values for ranking purposes.  However, I would prefer the dashboard to display the restaurant/location name only, instead of the location name + city + zip code + location number) -- is this possible?  Thank you!

 

Location Name/City/Number = TABC[Location Name] & " (" & TABC[City Key] & " - " & TABC[location_zip] & " - " & TABC[location_number]& ")"

    Lookup Table:- Go to Power Query and create Refernce table with two col "restaurant/location" & "location name + city + zip code + location number" /or create a table with SUMMARIZE dax function
    Create relationship:- with "location name + city + zip code + location number" between Lookup table and Main Table
    Use "restaurant/location" col from lookup table and data from main table in visulization
