Wagyu from $39 on the menu we read
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
A Mediterranean room in Queen Anne with a Wagyu-only steak list. The dinner menu's American Wagyu Steaks section runs four cuts of Imperial American Wagyu beef, grilled over charbroil: a 4oz petite filet at $49, a 6oz Manhattan strip at $56, an 8oz filet mignon at $76 and a 10oz New York at $79. A $39 Wagyu Bites starter uses the same beef in a spicy cream sauce, and both brunch menus carry it as American Wagyu Steak and Eggs at the same four sizes. Grappa names its supplier on its own sourcing page.
Authenticity flags
- The beef here is American, from a producer called Imperial Wagyu Beef. The menu's 'marbling score of 9 to 12 under Japanese beef standards' describes how the fat is scored, not Japanese origin, and it is not a Japanese A5 grade.

Common questions
- Does Grappa 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 Grappa serve?
- Its menu discloses Imperial American Wagyu. 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 Grappa 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.
