Private hibachi catering in Pasadena

Hibachi catering for Pasadena events

Most of what we do in Pasadena is private hibachi at home: a backyard in West Coast, a rooftop in Pasadena, a condo terrace in Pasadena. 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 Pasadena, CA for your event. Our Pasadena coverage runs across 1 neighborhoods including West Coast and Pasadena. Backyard hibachi, rooftop, garage, covered patio, indoor with ventilation — we have done all of it here.

Pasadena 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.

Pasadena hibachi catering — common questions

Do you bring the hibachi grill to my home in Pasadena?

Yes. Every Pasadena 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 Pasadena?

Our hibachi chef service is $54.99 per adult and $30 per child, with a $550 minimum per event. Travel to Pasadena 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 Pasadena neighborhoods do you cover?

We cover roughly 1 neighborhoods in and around Pasadena, 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 Pasadena 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 Pasadena. 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.
