Wagyu from $24 on the menu we read
Why it's listed
A Pearl District Japanese restaurant and sushi bar with a dedicated Japanese Wagyu program. The current menu prices a Miyazaki A5 Wagyu Steak by the ounce and serves a seared A5 Japanese beef nigiri. It also lists several Snake River Farms items marketed as 'SRF Kobe' (a 12 oz strip loin steak, skewers, and a beef tartare bibimbap); these are American Wagyu, not Japanese Kobe beef. A 12-course omakase runs several nights a week.
Authenticity flags
- Items on the menu labeled 'SRF Kobe' are Snake River Farms American Wagyu, not Japanese Kobe beef. The Japanese Wagyu on this menu is the Miyazaki A5 steak and the seared A5 nigiri.

Common questions
- Does Momoyama serve real Wagyu?
- Yes, and it says where the beef comes from. Momoyama in Portland, OR publishes enough detail on its own materials to identify the Wagyu it sells, which is the standard this directory calls verified, last checked on July 23, 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 Momoyama serve?
- Its menu discloses Miyazaki A5, SRF Kobe and 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.
- How was Momoyama 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 July 23, 2026.
