Local tips
Hosting hibachi at home in Gilbert
Kids’ birthdays and family nights
A hibachi chef is dinner and a show in one, which makes it an easy birthday plan for a mixed group of kids and adults. Children 12 and under are $30 and choose one protein. Adults are $55 and choose two. Every plate comes with fried rice, vegetables and a side salad. Kids need to stay back from the grill, with an adult watching.
Hosting the neighbors
For a block party or a bigger family group, send your best guest estimate when you request the date. You can usually add or remove guests before the final confirmation deadline. Sides like garlic noodles, gyoza and extra fried rice help stretch the meal for a larger crowd.
Pool season and summer heat
Backyard pools and hibachi go well together, but keep the grill away from the path guests use to reach the pool. In summer, start after sunset and seat guests in the shade.
Book at least a week ahead
We recommend booking at least one week before your party, and the same goes for weekends and holidays. Check available dates.
