Hibachi catering for Irvine events
Most of what we do in Irvine is private hibachi at home: a backyard in West Coast, a rooftop in Irvine, a condo terrace in Irvine. The chef brings a full mobile hibachi grill, preps on site, and runs the whole show where your guests are already sitting.
Nationwide coverage — a hibachi chef comes to Irvine, CA for your event. Between West Coast and Irvine we have worked 1 distinct Irvine neighborhoods, and the chef has set up in everything from a tight city patio to a full estate lawn.
Irvine is covered by our California chef network rather than by a chef flying in, which is what keeps weekend dates open here. Travel is billed as a flat $50 for the first 50 miles, tolls included, plus $1 per mile past that.
Where the chef sets up in Irvine
Corporate hibachi at Irvine offices works for 15 to 60 people; we set up in a courtyard, loading area, or cafeteria patio and run in seated waves. Parks and beaches in the Irvine area are doable with the right permit — we will tell you which ones typically grant one. Backyard hibachi is still the most common Irvine booking — the chef needs roughly an 8 by 8 foot clear area and works fine on grass, patio, deck, or driveway.
Irvine hibachi catering — common questions
Do you bring the hibachi grill to my home in Irvine?

You provide the space and the tables; we bring everything that cooks. The chef needs about an 8 by 8 foot clear area, and West Coast backyards, driveways, patios, and decks all work.

Can I book a hibachi birthday party in Irvine on a weekend?
Yes, and weekends are what we do most. We operate seven days a week including Saturday, which is our busiest hibachi party slot in Irvine. Summer and holiday weekends fill first, so book two to three weeks out if your date is fixed.
Is this hibachi or teppanyaki, and what does the chef actually cook?
It is Japanese teppanyaki cooked on a flat-top hibachi grill — the same style as a hibachi restaurant, run in your own space. The chef cooks fried rice, vegetables, and your chosen proteins to order, and performs the knife work, the onion volcano, and the catch-it-in-your-mouth routine while cooking. Gluten-friendly, halal, and vegetarian versions are all available.
