At best, it's Kobe bred w/Angus i.e. "Wagyu" or as some prefer, "Wangus". When any/all restaurants advertise it in this manner, it says one of two things to me, neither nice and best left unsaid.
Kobe sliders anyone? NOT.

I've tried it about four times now (because I want it to be awesome) , hoping that the meat would be good. I've tried it with the sauce, without the sauce, with an egg, without an egg, with cheese ,without cheese etc. It has a strange herby taste I can't get past anymore. I've given up on the burger.

Rosemary, which seems to be surprisingly polarizing.

Eh - I think rosemary + ground beef is surprising polarizing.
