The most common question we get before anyone books: how much does it cost? The answer is simple — $55 per adult (ages 13+) and $30 per child (ages 4–12), with a $550 event minimum. But let's break that down so you can estimate your exact cost and understand exactly what you're getting.

Here's what common group sizes actually cost, so you can plan without guessing.

  • 8 adults: $440 — event minimum of $550 applies
  • 10 adults: $550 — exactly meets the minimum
  • 12 adults: $660
  • 15 adults: $825
  • 20 adults: $1,100

  • 15 adults + 6 kids: $1,005

What's Included in the Price

This is where the value becomes clear. Every booking includes: garden salad with house ginger dressing, hibachi vegetables (zucchini, onion, mushrooms), steamed or fried rice, two proteins per guest (from chicken, steak, shrimp, salmon, or scallops), signature yum yum and teriyaki sauces, portable grill setup, and complete cleanup after the event. Your chef brings everything — you provide nothing except the space and the guests.

Is Hibachi at Home Cheaper Than a Restaurant?

For groups of 10 or more, private hibachi at home is often comparable — and sometimes less expensive — than a hibachi restaurant. Most hibachi restaurants charge $50–$80 per person for food alone, before tip. At $55/adult with everything included, you get the same quality food plus an entirely private experience, no reservations, and no strangers at your table. The $550 minimum ensures the experience is premium — that's by design.
