Is Hibachi Catering Worth It?
A sit-down hibachi restaurant typically charges $40–$70 per person before drinks, tax, and tip — and you're seated with strangers at a shared grill. Private hibachi catering brings the exact same experience to your backyard or venue, with a professional chef performing exclusively for your group.
For parties of 15 or more, private catering usually costs the same or less per person than a restaurant outing — with no reservations, no commute, no waiting, and no shared tables. Your guests get a full fire show, fresh food cooked right in front of them, and the comfort of your own space.
Pricing FAQ

Our minimum food total is $550. For small parties where the per-person total doesn't reach the minimum, the minimum applies. Most parties of 10 or more adults exceed it naturally.
Is the travel fee included in the price?▼
No. Travel fees are calculated based on distance from our chef's location to your event address and are confirmed before you finalize your booking. In most metro areas travel fees range from $30–$100.
Are taxes and gratuity included?▼
No. Taxes and gratuity are not included. Most customers tip 15–20% of the food total — our chefs put on a full show and cook everything fresh at your event.
How many proteins does each guest get?▼
Each adult gets to choose 2 proteins from: Chicken, Steak, Shrimp, Salmon, Tofu, Scallops. Filet Mignon and Lobster are premium upgrades available for an additional charge. Each child gets 1 protein.

How is hibachi catering priced compared to a restaurant?▼
