Hibachi catering for Hastings events

A Hastings birthday in Elkton, a graduation dinner in Ponte Vedra Beac, a corporate evening in St. Augustine — the format is the same every time. Our hibachi chef arrives with the grill, the food, and the knife work, and cooks it a few feet from your guests. No restaurant reservation, no rushing the table, no driving anyone home.

Private hibachi catering for Hastings — patios, pool decks, and vacation rentals across St. Johns County. That covers 3 neighborhoods in and around Hastings — Elkton, St. Augustine and everything between — so the chef usually knows the parking, the access, and where the grill can safely go before arriving.

This is a local chef, not a road trip. We staff Florida with hibachi chefs who already work the Northeast Florida market, so Hastings dates are served from inside the state. Travel runs $50 flat for the first 50 miles, tolls included, then $1 per mile.

Where the chef sets up in Hastings

Corporate hibachi at Hastings offices works for 15 to 60 people; we set up in a courtyard, loading area, or cafeteria patio and run in seated waves. Parks and beaches in the Hastings area are doable with the right permit — we will tell you which ones typically grant one. Backyard hibachi is still the most common Hastings booking — the chef needs roughly an 8 by 8 foot clear area and works fine on grass, patio, deck, or driveway.

Hastings hibachi catering — common questions

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

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