๐Ÿ“ Why People Always Ask About Price

If you've ever Googled “hibachi at home near me” or “how much is a private hibachi party,” you're not alone.

At Love Hibachi, we get asked this all the time — and we totally get it. You're planning a birthday, engagement, or just a fun backyard hangout, and you want to know:

❓ “Is it going to break the bank?”
❓ “What’s actually included in the price?”
❓ “Is it really worth it compared to going out?”

We want to be fully transparent with how pricing works — not just what you’re paying, but why it matters.

Let’s break it down for you — clearly, simply, and with real insights from hundreds of our parties. 


๐Ÿฑ 1. What's Included in Our Base Price?

Our base pricing is:

  • $60 per adult

  • $30 per child under 12 ($0 per child under 5)

  • $600 minimum per party

And here’s everything you get:

  • ๐Ÿ‘จ‍๐Ÿณ Private hibachi chef at your home

  • ๐Ÿš Fried rice, salad, mixed vegetables, sauces

  • ๐Ÿค 2 proteins per person (steak, shrimp, chicken, tofu, etc.)

  • ๐Ÿฅข Performance: fire tricks, sake spray, shrimp toss, jokes!

  • ๐Ÿงผ Setup + cleanup of cooking station

  • ๐Ÿ“ธ Time for pictures & celebration

๐Ÿ”ฅ Think: Benihana near me — but it comes to you!



๐Ÿงฎ 2. So What’s the Total Cost?

Beyond the base cost, here are the common add-ons that might affect your final total:


๐Ÿ”ข Real Example Breakdown:

Let’s say you’re planning a party for:

  • 15 adults = $900 base cost

  • 5 filet upgrades = $25 total

  • Location is 30 miles from our nearest chef (first 20 miles free → 10 extra miles × $2 = $20)

  • You’d like to tip 25%

  • California tax is 8.25% (If you pay through card.)

Step-by-step:

Base Cost: $900
---------------------------
+ Travel Fee: +$20
---------------------------
+ Upgrades: +$25
---------------------------
Food & Beverage: = $925

๐Ÿฝ️ 4. Is It Worth the Price?

Short answer: absolutely!

Here’s what makes this different from a hibachi buffet or steakhouse:

⭐ Customers often say, “This is better than Benihana!”

๐Ÿ’ฌ And we say: same fire, same flavors — just at your place.


๐Ÿงพ 5. Why It Costs What It Costs (Transparency Time!)

Here’s where your money goes:

  • ๐Ÿ… Ingredients & prep
