🎉 Can Love Hibachi Handle Large Parties? Yes, We Can! 🔥🍱

By

At Love Hibachi, people often ask us:

“How many guests can you accommodate?”
The short answer?
From intimate dinners to corporate feasts — we’ve got you covered. 😉

✅ Our Party Size Range

  • Minimum: 10 guests
    (We’ve even served cozy events with just 6 people – as long as the minimum fee is met. 💁‍♀️)

  • Maximum so far: 120 guests!
    That was an unforgettable corporate party full of laughter, flame shows, and delicious bites. 💼🔥🍤

🎂 Most Popular Occasions We Serve

  • Birthday Parties (🎈10–40 guests)

  • Bachelorette / Bachelor Parties (💃🍾10–20 guests)

  • Family Gatherings (👨‍👩‍👧‍👦6–30 guests)

  • Corporate Events (📊10–120+ guests)

🥢 Two Great Ways to Serve Large Groups (50+ Guests)

For larger events (50+ guests), we typically offer two styles of setup depending on your vision and space:

1️⃣ Group Rotation Format

We divide guests into smaller groups (20–25 per set) for live hibachi cooking & performance.
Each group enjoys the full show while others mingle, take photos, or sip drinks. 📸✨🍶
Perfect if you want everyone to have a classic teppanyaki experience. 🔥👨‍🍳

2️⃣ Buffet-Style Hibachi Station

Our chef prepares hibachi dishes continuously while guests help themselves from beautifully arranged platters.
It’s more free-flowing, great for networking-style or casual parties.
Bonus: this format often comes with a lower price per head! 🥗🍜🎊

Let us know what vibe you’re going for — we’ll help design the right flow. 💬

💡 A Few Important Notes

  • We do not provide tables, chairs, or dinnerware.
    For large events, please ensure everything is arranged ahead of time. 🪑🍽️

  • For buffet-style events, we recommend preparing large trays or serving platters for easy food display. 🍱🧃

  • Want a non-alcoholic option? For professional settings, we can skip the sake and bring something like bottled water or juice instead. 🧊🚫🍶

💬 Planning a Large Event?

Whether it’s your company’s summer bash, a milestone birthday, or a big family reunion —
Love Hibachi brings the show, the flavor, and the fire. 🔥❤️👨‍🍳

Send us a message to discuss your date, guest count, and location.
We’ll make your event one to remember. 🥳📅🎊
