Wagyu from $35/oz on the menu we read
On the official Kobe Beef registry as No. 2059. See the U.S. Kobe list
This listing's current published materials advertise Wagyu, but the offering does not meet our full verification standard for provenance. It carries no authenticity badge; undisclosed details remain explicitly unverified.
Why it's listed
Open Cherry Creek steakhouse at 3000 E 1st Ave, Denver, part of the 801 Restaurant Group. The current dinner menu carries a WAGYU section with one item: A5 Japanese Wagyu, sold by the ounce at 35 an ounce with a 3-ounce minimum. The restaurant holds official Kobe Beef Association registration, but no Kobe cut appears on the current menu and the kitchen does not name a prefecture or brand for its A5, so it is listed as a confirmed Wagyu venue without an authenticity badge. If a specific origin or a Kobe cut matters to you, ask what is available the night you visit.

Common questions
- Does 801 Chophouse Denver serve real Wagyu?
- Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on July 26, 2026. What the menu does not do is say which Wagyu: no prefecture, grade, breed status or producer is published, so the sourcing cannot be checked from outside. That is a gap in what is written down rather than a suggestion that anything is wrong with the beef, and plenty of kitchens buy carefully without printing the details.
- What kind of Wagyu does 801 Chophouse Denver serve?
- Its menu discloses A5 Japanese. Each of those is taken from the venue's own current materials rather than from a review or a listing site, and the evidence behind it is quoted further down this page.
- Is the Wagyu at 801 Chophouse Denver Kobe beef?
- It is licensed to serve Kobe and was not listing it when we last looked, on July 26, 2026. This venue does appear on the official Kobe registry, but Kobe was not on the menu at that check, so no Kobe badge is shown. Licensed rooms drop it between allocations and bring it back, so this can change without notice and is worth asking about directly.
- Why is 801 Chophouse Denver listed without a Wagyu badge?
- Because a badge here means the sourcing was checked, not that the food is good. This listing is published because the venue genuinely advertises Wagyu on its own current material, and it carries no badge because that material does not say which Wagyu. If the venue publishes the prefecture, grade, breed status or producer, the listing can move.
