Why it's listed
Grill 23 & Bar is a landmark Back Bay steakhouse (est. 1983) with a genuinely multi-origin Wagyu program: a Grade A5 striploin from Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan; a Stone Axe Australian Wagyu tomahawk; a wagyu beef carpaccio; and an American 'Kobe' cap steak. The Japanese A5 (named prefecture) and Australian Stone Axe sourcing are clearly disclosed, making the program provenance-transparent. Its 'American Kobe' is a US marketing label rather than registry-certified Kobe.
