Why it's listed
BOA Steakhouse Austin's current first-party menu carries a dedicated 'Japanese A5 Wagyu' section naming three prefectures - Kagoshima, Iwate, and Hokkaido 'Snow Beef' - plus a Japanese Wagyu Flight tasting all three at 2oz each. Named prefecture + A5 grade on current first-party items qualifies for Japanese A5 Verified. Westholme Australian Wagyu is also offered but lists no AUS-MEAT MB/MS score, so it earns no Australian badge. Open and bookable (OpenTable; Sun-Thu 5-10pm, Fri-Sat 5-11pm).

Common questions
- Does BOA Steakhouse serve real Wagyu?
- Yes, and it says where the beef comes from. BOA Steakhouse in Austin, TX 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 19, 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 BOA Steakhouse serve?
- Its menu discloses Kagoshima A5, Iwate A5, Hokkaido (Snow Beef) A5 and Westholme. 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 BOA Steakhouse 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 19, 2026.
