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 Capitol Hill yakiniku bistro on N Broadway, tabletop-grilling Tuesday to Sunday from 5:30pm, closed Mondays. Its menu devotes a full standalone page to Japanese A5 Wagyu Beef: an A5 Wagyu Steak sold at 16 dollars an ounce, an A5 Shabu Slice, an A5 Truffle Sandwich, A5 Nigiri and an A5 Tenderloin. A second page runs a separate Australia Wagyu Beef line of dice beef and short rib, plus a limited beef tongue and Australian Wagyu combo. The Japanese items state country of origin but no prefecture, brand or farm.

Common questions
- Does Ishoni Yakiniku serve real Wagyu?
- Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on July 21, 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 Ishoni Yakiniku serve?
- Its menu discloses Australian and A5 Japanese. 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 Ishoni Yakiniku 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.
