Yeah for Wagyu, I like grabbing the Kingsway stuff from Costco. You can grab a chunk of the striploin or Ribeye wagyu and get 3 decent sized steaks (10-12 oz).
Good to hear although I've also had some really poor experiences at Modern Steak (Stephen Ave) for business meals. They didn't cook things properly and their cuts were too thin. One guest asked for Chicago style and it came overdone. The wait staff then explained their cuts were too thin for that and yet they didn't inform the guest during ordering.

A5 is very different from the NA Wagyu. The Alberta Brant Lake Wagyu is very similiar to the American Wagyu you see here. It's much less marbled and not a comparable experience at all.
