Where the chef sets up in Manhattan
Community clubhouses, HOA pavilions, and event rooms around Manhattan usually approve us once they see we are insured and self-contained. Corporate hibachi at Manhattan 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 Manhattan area are doable with the right permit — we will tell you which ones typically grant one.
Manhattan hibachi catering — common questions
Do you bring the hibachi grill to my home in Manhattan?
Yes. Every Manhattan 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 New York City backyards, driveways, patios, and decks all work.
How much does hibachi catering cost in Manhattan?
Our hibachi chef service is $54.99 per adult and $30 per child, with a $550 minimum per event. Travel to Manhattan 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 Manhattan neighborhoods do you cover?
We cover roughly 1 neighborhoods in and around Manhattan, including New York City. 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 Manhattan 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 Manhattan. 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.
