Wagyu X: Indulge in Marbled Perfection at 82 Club Street
Enter Wagyu X, the newest culinary gem on Club Street. Wagyu X isn’t your run-of-the-mill steakhouse. It’s possibly Singapore’s first ever Japanese Steakhouse where Chef-owner Masahisa Takada, after an extensive journey across Japan, brings to the table a rare Hokkaido special – a Wagyu crossbreed that’s a treasure outside its homeland. This unique breed, a cross between the Kuroge black Wagyu cow and the Aberdeen Angus bull, marries the exquisite marbling of A5 Wagyu with the rich, full-bodied taste of Angus beef. The result? A steak that dazzles your palate with its luxurious texture, striking the perfect balance between indulgent fat and hearty meat.
Wagyu X Elevates Your Steak Experience with a Brand New Menu
Most recently, Wagyu X has unveiled a brand new menu that offers a tantalising new way to experience their prized crossbreed beef. Instead of solely searing, Wagyu X now expertly chargrills steaks over binchotan charcoal for a smoky richness. Finally, it is served with a unique smoking process using Sakura wood, imparting delicate fruity cherry notes to the meat that whets your appetite. It’s definitely a feast for the senses.
The beef is so juicy and flavourful, then the house-made crispy garlic chips cut right through the richness. Drizzle the signature steak sauce – a perfect mix of sweet and savoury, totally addictive.

Wagyu X’s new menu showcases a fusion of Japanese and Italian flavours, offering a refreshing way to experience their prized Wagyu crossbreed. A prime example is the Wagyu Carpaccio. This dish features paper-thin slices of Wagyu X tenderloin drizzled with a touch of truffle oil. Arugula leaves and Parmesan chips complete the plate, creating a perfect harmony of umami flavours.
Diners can elevate their Wagyu experience with a selection of tempting new sides. The Japanese Sweet Potato Croquettes are crafted in-house using premium sweet potatoes imported from Japan, resulting in a luxuriously creamy and satisfying texture. For a healthy accompaniment, the Horenso Gomaae (Spinach Salad) features simply blanched spinach tossed in a house-made roasted sesame dressing, offering a burst of umami flavour.
Diners seeking a satisfying alternative to steak will find the Wagyu Fried Rice irresistible. This dish features rice fried with Wagyu fat for unparalleled richness, complemented by a refreshing ooba leaf foam. Originally conceived as a staff meal utilising extra Wagyu, this dish was quickly recognized for its excellence. It first appeared on the 3-course lunch set menu before its undeniable appeal earned it a place on the main menu.
Diners who crave this exceptional experience aren’t limited to dinnertime. Wagyu X has a specially curated lunchtime indulgence menu, featuring a 3-course meal at the enticing price of S$38++.
