Why it's listed
NIKU X in Downtown LA is built entirely around Wagyu: an all-you-can-eat yakiniku concept promising 'unlimited' Japanese A5. Beyond the generic buffet Wagyu, the venue names specific sources including Toriyama Umami Wagyu (A5) from Gunma Prefecture and an American Wagyu tomahawk from Masami Ranch, and its program spans Japan, Australia, and the US. Wagyu is unquestionably central to the concept, though the flagship buffet beef is sold without a named brand. Open and popular; it appears in the Michelin Guide but holds no star (its chef's star was earned at a prior restaurant).
