You know what they say about Wagyu? “Once tasted, never forgotten.”

Its offerings range from the rare Olive and Matsusaka Wagyu to tender cuts of Wagyu A5. These are the good stuff. Starting at Php 980/100g, the Wagyu A5 melts in your mouth with buttery goodness, while Matsusaka Wagyu (starts at Php 2,300/100g boasts a unique flavor profile, thanks to its marbled fatty meat which is much finer and tastes sweeter compared to other Japanese beef.

Wagyu purists can’t also go wrong with a serving of its Chef Specials–premium Japanese beef grilled to perfection to balance out the buttery, marbleized meat.

Aside from choice cow cuts, Wagyu Manila also serves premium pork, sausages, chicken and seafood.

To those looking for something adventurous, try the restaurant’s offal, seseri (chicken neck), or reba sashimi (raw Wagyu beef). These unusual cuts are grilled and have a soft and chewy texture, with a gamey flavor to boot.
