Wagyu from $295 on the menu we read
Why it's listed
Steak 48's Charlotte steakhouse runs a serious multi-origin Wagyu program beside its 28-day wet-aged USDA Prime. The menu names an Australian Westholme Wagyu filet, an American Wagyu tomahawk from Snake River Farms, and a Japanese A5 'wine-fed' cut (billed Kobe, from Hikami farm) served in 3oz portions, plus a Wagyu beef tartare. Provenance for the Australian and American cuts is clearly disclosed. However, despite the 'Kobe' billing the venue is not on the official Kobe Beef registry, so that appellation is treated as an unverified Japanese A5 claim rather than certified Kobe.
