Wagyu from $230 on the menu we read
On the official Kobe Beef registry as No. 1656. See the U.S. Kobe list
Why it's listed
Prime 131 is a Houston steakhouse (2505 W 11th St) on the official Kobe registry (reg 1656). Its current first-party menu (Playwright-rendered) names a 'Japanese A5 Wagyu Kagawa Prefecture Olive Beef Tenderloin, 4oz, $230'. Named prefecture (Kagawa, the source of Olive Wagyu) + A5 grade clears the Japanese standard, so verified Japanese A5. The formerly-indexed Hyogo Kobe rib-cap item now returns 404 (removed from the menu), so Kobe is NOT currently orderable and the Certified Kobe badge is correctly withheld despite the registration. Open Tue-Sat dinner.

Common questions
- Does Prime 131 serve real Wagyu?
- Yes, and it says where the beef comes from. Prime 131 in Houston, 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 Prime 131 serve?
- Its menu discloses Kagawa (Olive Beef) A5. 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.
- Is the Wagyu at Prime 131 Kobe beef?
- It is licensed to serve Kobe and was not listing it when we last looked, on July 19, 2026. This venue does appear on the official Kobe registry, but Kobe was not on the menu at that check, so no Kobe badge is shown. Licensed rooms drop it between allocations and bring it back, so this can change without notice and is worth asking about directly.
- How was Prime 131 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.
