Why it's listed
Prime + Proper's Nashville unit, inside the Grand Hyatt at Nashville Yards, runs a dedicated Rare Cuts section headed "Unicorns From Our Butcher Shop" carrying three Wagyu items across three origins: an American Wagyu collab with Black Hawk Farms at market price, an Australian Wagyu NY strip from Stone Axe at $200 for 12oz, and a Japanese Craft A5 Wagyu at market price. Black Hawk Farms documents its own product as fullblood Wagyu bulls crossed with Black Angus cows, a 50/50 first-generation cross, which supports an F1 badge. The Japanese and Australian items lack prefecture and MB score respectively.

Common questions
- Does Prime + Proper serve real Wagyu?
- Yes, and it says where the beef comes from. Prime + Proper in Nashville, TN 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 22, 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 Prime + Proper serve?
- Its menu discloses Stone Axe, A5 Japanese and Black Hawk Farms. 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 Prime + Proper 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 22, 2026.
