Wagyu from $35/oz on the menu we read
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
A 1920s-style steakhouse in the Power & Light District downtown, built on USDA Prime steaks from the group's in-house meat program. Its dinner menu carries a dedicated Wagyu heading with a single entry, A5 Japanese Wagyu sold by the ounce at 35/oz with a 3oz minimum. The menu names the grade but no prefecture, brand or farm, so the beef's specific origin within Japan is not disclosed. Open Monday through Saturday 4:00 to 10:00 and Sunday 4:00 to 9:00, with happy hour weekdays 4:00 to 6:00 and daily valet.
Authenticity flags
- Third-party menu mirrors for this restaurant still show an older and larger Wagyu selection than the kitchen currently serves, including a Japanese A5 filet at a different price and a Snake River Farms American Wagyu strip. The current menu lists one Wagyu item, sold by the ounce. Check the restaurant's own menu rather than an aggregator if a specific cut matters to you.

Common questions
- Does 801 Chophouse Kansas City serve real Wagyu?
- Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on July 22, 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 Kansas City 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.
- Why is 801 Chophouse Kansas City 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.
