Cool place! Quality meats! Cheaper than Costco. I went Labor Day weekend and they were having a deal on ribeye from Kagoshima. Got 3 slabs for $300. Worth it for the deal! Meats turned out great, never had better!Service was informative and let me spin a cool wheel for spending over $300. I ended up getting chips, but other items on the wheel seemed more valuable. Chips were good though very olive oily! Would definitely go again! Thanks Kai wagyu!

I've been here multiple times to get wagyu and bone marrow. I drive all the way from riverside and always get stellar customer service. It's a small spot but it has all the things you're looking for in the sense of luxury meat and exotic choices.

Nestled in a small shopping plaza in Costa Mesa nearby SCP. This review is for their caviar. This is my go to place for caviar in OC. The staff is friendly, selections are amazing and price is reasonable.

First time going into establishment and it's nice to see options for high quality steak. Prices are a bit steep. Example is a Japanese branded premium bbq sauce they sell for double what they sell at Mitsuwa, across the street. Picked up some frozen Miyazaki wagyu steaks and nice marbling on the steaks throughout. Only suggestion would be more value or lower prices to bring in more clients.

Found this lovely gem of a place to buy some yummy steaks for my hubby for Valentine's Day! Was greeted by a nice gentleman who was welcoming and knew the different cuts of meat and suggested cuts that I should buy. I ended up buying the Australian ebony ribeye, Australian wagyu picanha and organic grass fed ribeye. All the meats were so good! We really enjoyed the picanha which I got on sale so that was a steal. Also bought flakey salt which I enjoyed with my steak too. All of the meats are of good quality and I thought that the price was fair. Definitely a great place to check out and it's clean and nice looking inside. Something you would expect the place to look like when you walk into a butcher shop. Thank you again to the gentlemen who helped me this past Monday 2/12! Will definitely be back!

By far the best wagyu/premium meat shop in OC. They always have deals so make sure you ask and check the website.My favorites is the A5 ribeye/picanha and the short rib!

The only place I go to for A5 Wagyu and they always have amazing deals! The fact I can order online and pickup the same day is what makes me go back here

I was planning a nice dinner for my boyfriend and my good friend highly recommended Kai wagyu. The store is conveniently located near south coast plaza, so I stopped by after running some errands. The store itself is small, but very nicely setup. The girl who helped me was very knowledgeable and helped me make the best choice for my meal. I went with the A5 Japanese wagyu. She told me how to cook it and even gave me an instruction card so I wouldn't forget later. It turned out perfect. I would definitely recommend

There is nothing like this place. If you want wagyu or other quality items this is the place. I felt so welcome and didn't feel like an annoying person who was unsure about what she wanted. I was really wanting some smaller cut of A5 or even a short rib. The wonderful lady behind the counter was informative and welcoming. We had a discussion on how to cook a bone marrow and she just gave me confidence that I'm able to do it. I went home with my bone marrow and my little piece of A5 which I found in the freezer section. If I'm hankering for a proper steak I would come back here and try their other offerings. It's quality meat with quality service. They also have sashimi grade tuna and salmon. Now I'm going to grill my wagyu and bake my bone marrow with sprinkling of herbs and rock salt.

Quality of the meat is much better than what I've found for Wagyu. I picked up some picanha and a ribeye. Both were well marbled and cooked great. It's a bit of a drive for me but I think it's worth it. Pricing seems good for the grade of meet you get as well. There's also some cool chilli oils and other items to check out while you are there.
