Why it's listed
Katami is an open sushi-, wagyu-, and sake-focused Japanese restaurant in Houston's Montrose from James Beard-nominated chef Manabu Horiuchi. Its dedicated Wagyu menu lists multiple A5 Japanese offerings with full provenance: Ohmi (Omi) A5 New York strip, Takamori 'Drunken' A5 tenderloin, and Kagoshima A5 prepared shabu-shabu, yakiniku, cold soba and yakimeshi. A generic "A5 Wagyu" nigiri and a Texas (American) Wagyu salad appear without complete provenance. No Kobe beef is on the current menu despite the venue's Kobe registration (no. 1778). Verified on the branded and prefecture A5 Japanese offerings.
