A $500 minimum food order applies. If your group is smaller, additional food and upgrades can help meet the minimum.

Do you bring the hibachi grill and ingredients?

Yes, the private chef brings a hibachi setup and food for the confirmed menu. Your property needs a safe, approved cooking area.

Does the host need to provide guest tables and dishes?

Please have tables, seating, plates, utensils and beverages ready, unless rentals have been arranged in advance.

How long does an at-home hibachi party last?

The chef typically arrives 15–20 minutes before the start. Cooking and interactive entertainment generally last about 1–1.5 hours, followed by cleanup of the station.

Can hibachi cooking be set up in a backyard?

Yes, when the outdoor cooking area has an approved stable surface, safe clearances and accessible equipment route.

What if rain is forecast for the party?

Arrange a suitable rain alternative before the event. Outdoor propane equipment must not be used inside an enclosed house or garage.

Can you cook at an Airbnb or event rental?

The owner or venue manager must authorize live hibachi cooking, including the exact equipment and fuel type.

How are travel fees and ZIP codes used?

ZIP codes and the full event address help determine travel charges and logistics; they are not used to decide whether the county is served.

Can you accommodate guests with food allergies?

Tell us about allergies in advance. A shared cooking surface may cause cross-contact, so an allergen-free environment cannot be guaranteed.

When should we submit the final menu?

Please provide guest counts, protein selections, upgrades and dietary requirements around five days before the event.

Can guests choose steak, chicken or shrimp?

Yes, standard proteins include options such as steak, chicken and shrimp. Ask about premium seafood or other upgrades.

Are extra proteins, noodles and appetizers available?

Yes, you can request a third protein, noodles, gyoza or other additions at extra cost; check the current menu.

Does the chef clean up afterward?

The chef cleans the cooking equipment and work station after the cooking experience; hosts remain responsible for guest dishes and event-site cleanup.

Do you bring a private chef to Owego and Waverly?

Yes. We provide hibachi catering in Owego, Waverly and across Tioga County, subject to scheduling and safe site arrangements.
