Hibachi At Home
Skip the crowded restaurant and the two-hour wait for a table of twelve. For a birthday, our chef sets up the hibachi grill at your home and makes the birthday boy or girl the star of the whole show.
Birthdays are the number-one reason people call HibachiNearby, and it makes sense the moment you see one happen. A restaurant gives you a table; we give you a show built around one person. The chef learns the birthday guest's name before the party starts, pulls them into the tricks, aims the sake bottle their way (or a juice bottle for the kids), and finishes the night with a fried-rice heart and a birthday chant the whole yard joins in on.
It works for every age. For kids' parties, the onion volcano and the egg toss get the same screams a magician would — except dinner is included. For milestone birthdays — 30th, 40th, 50th, 60th — it reads as a genuinely upscale private-chef dinner that still gets everyone laughing instead of sitting politely at a rented banquet room.
You give us a date, a headcount, and a safe open-air spot — backyard, patio, driveway, rooftop, or pool deck. We bring the grill, the chef, fresh proteins, fried rice, vegetables, salad, and sauces, and we handle setup before guests arrive. Dinner runs about 90 minutes of cooking, tricks, and eating, and the grill leaves with us. You supply tables, chairs, plates, and drinks — most hosts do a simple U-shape of tables around the grill so everyone has a front-row seat.
Pricing starts at $55 per adult and $30 per kid, with a 10-guest / $500 minimum — the chef, grill, and fire show are always included. Add filet mignon, lobster, or extra sides for the guest of honor if you want to go bigger.
Prime weekend dates go fast, especially in spring and summer — one to three weeks ahead is the safe window, and we book seven days a week. Last-minute date? Call or text (929) 595-9308 and we'll check the calendar.
Yes — tell us who the party is for when you book. Chefs bring them into the show, do the sake or juice pour, shape a fried-rice heart, and lead the birthday song. You handle the cake; we'll make sure the moment lands.
All the time. Kids' pricing is $30, the tricks are kid-safe versions, and the chef swaps sake for a juice bottle. Parents tell us it beats every bounce-house party they've thrown.
The grill needs an open-air space — a covered patio, garage with the door up, or a tent all work fine in rain. We'll help you plan a backup spot when you book.
