What does this mean? →Why it's listed
Yakiya is an upscale Japanese yakiniku and shabu-shabu steakhouse in east Pasadena serving a chef-driven prix-fixe / omakase journey with high-grade beef grilled tableside. Its Wagyu program is central and provenance-forward: multiple A5 Miyazaki Wagyu cuts (ribeye, chuck, strip loin) plus a Kagoshima ribeye, alongside American Wagyu and USDA Prime. Prefecture-plus-grade disclosure (Miyazaki / Kagoshima, A5) and a dedicated multi-cut Wagyu experience place it firmly in the directory.
