Cinque Terre
Seattle, WA · Italian
Tier 3 · Menu claim only What the tiers mean
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
Wagyu shows up once at this South Lake Union Italian restaurant, as the Carpaccio al Profumo di Rafano: American Wagyu beef carpaccio from Snake River Farms with parmigiana, horseradish and rucola. It runs on both services, $24 at lunch and $28 at dinner. The producer is named, which is more than most carpaccio gets, but neither the restaurant nor Snake River Farms states a breed generation for the cattle, so how much Japanese lineage is in the beef is not disclosed.

Common questions
- Does Cinque Terre 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 Cinque Terre serve?
- Its menu discloses Snake River Farms. 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 Cinque Terre 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.
