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.

Common questions
- Does SCOTCH 80 PRIME serve real Wagyu?
- Yes, and it says where the beef comes from. SCOTCH 80 PRIME in Las Vegas, NV publishes enough detail on its own materials to identify the Wagyu it sells, which is the standard this directory calls verified, last checked on August 18, 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 SCOTCH 80 PRIME serve?
- Its menu discloses Kobe (Hyogo Prefecture) A5 and Mishima Reserve F1 crossbred (Kuroge Washu x American). 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.
- Is the Wagyu at SCOTCH 80 PRIME Kobe beef?
- Yes, on both counts that matter. This venue appears on the official Kobe Beef Marketing and Distribution Promotion Association registry, and Kobe was on its verified menu when last checked on August 18, 2026. Both are required here: a registry listing alone is permission to buy Kobe, not proof that any is being served.
- How was SCOTCH 80 PRIME 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 August 18, 2026.
