Why it's listed
Chef Robin Anthony's fish-focused sushi and sake bar in Ballantyne, in the MICHELIN Guide's first South edition. Its printed menu PDF carries three Wagyu items, headed by the Wagyu Imperial nigiri: seared A5 Wagyu from Miyazaki Prefecture with sturgeon caviar, truffle and sea salt at $50. An A5 Wagyu nigiri at $35 and a Crispy A5 Wagyu Roll at $24 name the grade but no prefecture. The Miyazaki line carries both a named prefecture and a JMGA grade attached to the beef itself, which clears the Japanese provenance standard.

Common questions
- Does PrimeFish Charlotte serve real Wagyu?
- Yes, and it says where the beef comes from. PrimeFish Charlotte in Charlotte, NC publishes enough detail on its own materials to identify the Wagyu it sells, which is the standard this directory calls verified, last checked on July 22, 2026. That means a named Japanese brand or prefecture with its grade, an American breed status with a named producer, or an Australian producer with a marbling score.
- What kind of Wagyu does PrimeFish Charlotte serve?
- Its menu discloses Miyazaki A5 and 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.
- How was PrimeFish Charlotte verified?
- By reading the venue's own current material, its menu, its site or its ordering system, and quoting the line that names the beef. Reviews, aggregator copies and press mentions are not accepted as the source, because they go stale silently. Verification is assisted by AI and every claim is stored with the page it came from, last confirmed on July 22, 2026.
