Why it's listed
Sparrow is a contemporary American restaurant in Kirkland's Juanita neighborhood, and its entire steak lineup is American Wagyu. The dine in menu lists five cuts of Imperial American Wagyu beef, from a 4 oz petite filet at 54 to a 16 oz rib eye at 98, each charbroiled and served with mashed potatoes plus a house demi glace or chimichurri. Marbling scores of 6 to 7 and 9 to 10 are printed beside the cuts. Wagyu sliders at 24 and a Wagyu steak sandwich at 32 round out the offering. The menu names the supplier but not the breed generation.

Common questions
- Does Sparrow serve real Wagyu?
- Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on August 23, 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 Sparrow serve?
- Its menu discloses Imperial American Wagyu Beef beef marbling score 6-7 and Imperial American Wagyu Beef beef marbling score 9-10. 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 Sparrow 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.
