Wagyu from $26 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
Bacchus is the flagship fine dining room of the Bartolotta group in downtown Milwaukee. Its current first-party menu lists a Wagyu Striploin entree with potato rosti, roasted chanterelle, and espresso steak sauce for 79 dollars, offered on both the a la carte and the chef's tasting menus. This is a legitimate whole muscle Wagyu course. The menu names no origin, grade, breed, or producer for the beef, so its provenance is not disclosed. A separate Bacchus Wagyu cheeseburger is a novelty item and does not count. The restaurant is open and takes reservations.

Common questions
- Does Bacchus - A Bartolotta Restaurant serve real Wagyu?
- Its own current menu advertises Wagyu, and that claim was read directly on July 30, 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.
- Why is Bacchus - A Bartolotta Restaurant 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.
