Wagyu buffets that aren’t out of reach
Wagyu beef is proof that fat isn’t always a bad thing. With its intense marbling, wagyu comes with a melt-in-your-mouth texture, and it makes our mouths water just thinking about it. Because of its limited quantity, wagyu beef has a reputation for being priced out of the reach of us common folk. Except the cattle has seen its price drop dramatically over the years. We rounded up 9 wagyu buffets with free-flow wagyu beef that you can relish to your heart’s content.
1. Gyu-Kaku
Gyu-Kaku offers free-flow wagyu in an assortment of cuts in their Australian Wagyu Course ($66.80++). The 90-minute buffet is done BBQ-style, complete with appetisers and a substantial seafood collection, featuring butter scallops and aburi prawns. By cooking on a charcoal grill attached to your table, you’ll get to choose the doneness of your beef, and enjoy that smoky aroma that escalates the red meat to a whole new level.
If you are feeling extra indulgent, upgrade your buffet to their Japanese Wagyu Course ($86.80++), which has everything in the Australian Wagyu Course, with additional premium cuts.
2. Tajimaya

Our second Japanese charcoal grill place is also one of the more pocket-friendly buffet options. Tajimaya offers a Premium Wagyu Buffet ($54.90++ for weekday lunch, $64.90++ for weekday dinner), featuring kurobuta pork, tiger prawns and sashimi, on top of wagyu beef. At such a price, just going for the wagyu and sashimi is enough to make your money’s worth. Top up $3++ to the buffet price when you’re dining on Friday to Sunday, or on public holidays.
