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
Virago is an open Asian-fusion sushi room at 1120 McGavock Street in The Gulch, part of M Street Hospitality, with current published hours and live SevenRooms reservations. Its dinner menu carries two genuine Wagyu items: A5 Wagyu NZ, a nigiri priced per piece at 16 dollars, and Wagyu Fried Rice at 28 dollars, described as Japanese Wagyu. The menu names an A5 grade and a Japanese origin but no prefecture, brand or producer anywhere, so no authenticity badge is supported.

Common questions
- Does Virago 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 Virago serve?
- Its menu discloses Japanese 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.
- Why is Virago 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.
