Hibachi catering for Nutley events

When Nutley families throw a hibachi party at home, the chef does the cooking and the entertaining. Spring Garden, Yantacaw, Radcliffe — wherever the event lands, we bring the grill, the proteins, the sauces, and the whole live teppanyaki performance to your table.

We have cooked across 5 Nutley-area neighborhoods, from Spring Garden to Nutley Park — apartments, rooftops, backyards, driveways, community clubhouses, parks with a permit, and office spaces.

You are not waiting on a chef to drive in from another state. Our New Jersey hibachi chefs live and work in the region, so a Nutley booking is served locally. Travel is a flat $50 covering the first 50 miles with tolls included, then $1 per mile.

Where the chef sets up in Nutley

Corporate hibachi at Nutley 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 Nutley area are doable with the right permit — we will tell you which ones typically grant one. Backyard hibachi is still the most common Nutley booking — the chef needs roughly an 8 by 8 foot clear area and works fine on grass, patio, deck, or driveway.

Do you bring the hibachi grill to my home in Nutley?

Yes. Every Nutley booking is in-home hibachi — the chef arrives with a commercial mobile hibachi grill, propane, all the food, sauces, and serving gear. You provide the space and the tables; we bring everything that cooks. The chef needs about an 8 by 8 foot clear area, and Spring Garden backyards, driveways, patios, and decks all work.

Our hibachi chef service is $55 per adult and $30 per child, with a $550 minimum per event. Travel to Nutley is a flat $50 for the first 50 miles with tolls included, then $1 per mile beyond that.

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