Japanese steakhouse doneness uses phonetic English borrows. Traditional Japanese cuisine rarely requires 'doneness' conversations because paper-thin cuts (shabu-shabu, sukiyaki) cook in seconds. For raw preparations (Yukke/tartare), the term 生 (Nama) is used. A5 Wagyu is traditionally served rare-to-medium-rare due to the extreme marbling.

Doneness terminology varies by country and restaurant. When unsure, describe what you want (e.g., “warm red center”).
