BOA's ocean-end room on Santa Monica Boulevard, a block from the pier. Its own menu carries the group's Japanese A5 Wagyu section sold by the ounce with a three-ounce minimum, naming Kagoshima at 36 dollars, Iwate at 38 and Hokkaido Snow Beef at 54, alongside a Japanese Wagyu Flight of all three at two ounces each. Westholme Australian Wagyu appears as a New York strip, a ribeye and a filet, and the bar menu runs a Wagyu smash burger and a Wagyu old fashioned made with Wagyu-washed whiskey.
