Tier 3 · Menu claim only What the tiers mean
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 12-seat SoHo omakase room on West Houston Street, open since summer 2021 and run by the chef duo Lin and Jackie. It serves two chef's-choice sets daily, a 12 piece at 65 and a 17 piece at 100, and both of them carry the same Wagyu course: A5 Wagyu with Uni, printed as a numbered piece inside the set rather than as a paid upgrade. The grade is stated on the venue's own menu. No prefecture, brand, farm or importer is named anywhere on the site.

Common questions
- Does Shiki Omakase serve real Wagyu?
- Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on July 21, 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 Shiki Omakase 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 Shiki Omakase 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.
