Where the chef sets up in Burlingame
Backyard hibachi is still the most common Burlingame booking — the chef needs roughly an 8 by 8 foot clear area and works fine on grass, patio, deck, or driveway. Rooftops and terraces work as long as there is open air above the grill; we bring our own propane and a fire-safe base. Indoor hibachi is possible in Burlingame homes with a range hood, an open garage, or a covered porch — tell us the room and we will confirm ventilation before the date.

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

Can I book a hibachi birthday party in Burlingame 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 Burlingame. 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.
