SCOTCH 80 PRIME

Why it's listed

Scotch 80 Prime is the steakhouse inside Palms Casino Resort, off-Strip on West Flamingo, and one of only about five Las Vegas restaurants licensed by the Kobe Beef Marketing & Distribution Promotion Association. Beyond an A5 Kobe striploin sold by the ounce from Hyogo Prefecture, the chef curates Wagyu from specific Japanese farms and pairs it with dry-aged American prime and Mishima Reserve crossbred Wagyu. Allocation is tiny, roughly ten pounds of Kobe tenderloin in a good week, making it one of the city's more credible Japanese Wagyu programmes.
