🍷 LA | Alexander’s Steakhouse

What a delightful start to the meal — crispy, flavorful fried potato balls that were perfectly crunchy and not greasy at all! The bread service came with three varieties, including a Hokkaido-inspired roll, squid ink bread, and a cheesy option 🥖🧀. You can really feel the Japanese-American fusion vibe right from the beginning — a perfect setup for the A5 Wagyu to come. Even the butter was served in a bone marrow shell — so charming and thoughtful! 🦴💛 🍣 Appetizers That Shine: Uni Wagyu Toast — Absolutely divine! The uni was incredibly sweet — even better than some dedicated sushi spots 🍤. The seared Wagyu was rich but not heavy, and it came with 6 different salts to experiment with. An unforgettable bite! Hokkaido Scallop — Solid, though honestly… the accompaniments outshone the scallop itself 😉 🐟 Mains & The Star of the Show: Black Cod — Delicate and flaky, served with a refreshing Thai-style sauce 🍋 Miyazaki A5 Wagyu (3oz, $135) — Worth every penny! Beautifully seared with perfect Maillard reaction, deeply beefy but not overly rich. So tender, so flavorful — a true standout! 🥩✨ Roasted Bone Marrow — Sweet and rich, but not overwhelming. A tasty treat, though maybe not for everyone. ⚠️ A small note: The creative sides like Korean cauliflower and fried rice were just okay — maybe stick to the classics. 💫 Overall: Way better than I expected — the grilling technique here is seriously impressive 👨‍🍳🔥 A perfect spot for a special date, even on a Tuesday 😉 #AlexandersSteakhouse #LAFineDining #WagyuLovers #DateNightLA #JapaneseFusion
