Palo Alto hibachi catering — common questions

Do you bring the hibachi grill to my home in Palo Alto?

Yes. Every Palo Alto booking is in-home hibachi — the chef arrives with a commercial mobile hibachi grill, propane, all the food, sauces, and serving gear. 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.

How much does hibachi catering cost in Palo Alto?

Our hibachi chef service is $54.99 per adult and $30 per child, with a $550 minimum per event. Travel to Palo Alto is a flat $50 for the first 50 miles with tolls included, then $1 per mile beyond that. Those figures are before tax — sales tax is calculated on the event address, so your quote will show it separately.

Which Palo Alto neighborhoods do you cover?

We cover roughly 1 neighborhoods in and around Palo Alto, including West Coast. If you do not see yours listed we very likely still serve it — ask and we will quote the travel cost before you book.

Can I book a hibachi birthday party in Palo Alto 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 Palo Alto. 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.
