Dry aged Japanese wagyu ribeye

g37

So last night  I celebrated my anniversary with my wife. We decided to go out for dinner.   We dined at an expensive steak house.  I chose the Japanese wagyu ribeye. It was aged also but they never said how long it was aged for.  They called the ribeye a certain name is started with a H or A because it was extremely marbled. 

When I received my steak it had a really strong smell and not a great smell. I’ve had dry aged American beef and it had a smell but it smelt had a real beefy smell.  The steak I had last night smell like Sh__t. I ate it and I didn’t get sick I’m guessing it was ok???  Has anyone else’s experienced this?

I can only go off my experience with the Japanese A5 Wagyu packer brisket that I just finished dry aging in order to answer this question.  It's been dry aged for 108 days and definitely has a smell to it, although not like "sh_t" as you experienced.
It smells earthy, like mushrooms.  However, when I cooked a sliver of it, it did not smell like typical dry aged beef.  It's not an unpleasant odor by any means.
