Does Ivory House serve real Wagyu?

Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on July 22, 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 Ivory House 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 Ivory House 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.

Why it's listed

A modern steakhouse in the Westwood Town Hall district that gives Japanese A5 Wagyu its own boxed callout at the top of the steaks section, offering a 6oz New York Strip at $150 and a 12oz at $295. A Taste of Luxury starter serves 3oz of Japanese A5 Wagyu with horseradish crema and crostini at $75, and the bar menu runs an A5 Wagyu NY Strip Dinner at $119. The A5 grade is stated throughout but no prefecture, brand or farm is named on any menu.

Authenticity flags

Its Japanese A5 Wagyu is headlined on the steak list but no prefecture, brand or farm is named on any of its menus, so the beef's specific origin within Japan is not disclosed. A separate bar burger is built on unspecified wagyu with no origin or grade stated, and is a different product from the A5 strip. Ask which A5 is being served if the source matters to you.
