Why it's listed
A Noble Square whole-animal room whose large-format smoke list carries Wagyu Beef Ribs at two hundred twenty five dollars, priced among the boar shoulder, lamb leg and smoked short rib for group service. Ribs are a cut, smoked whole; nothing is published about the beef's origin, grade or producer.

Common questions
- Does The Frontier serve real Wagyu?
- Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on August 23, 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 The Frontier serve?
- Its menu discloses unknown. 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.
- Why is The Frontier 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.
