Your Questions, Answered.

Your Hifire Hibachi chef arrives at your home, backyard, beach house or vacation rental with a portable hibachi grill, fresh proteins, hibachi vegetables, fried rice, noodles and signature sauces. They set up outdoors, cook live in front of your guests, put on the full hibachi fire show, then pack up and leave the space clean. You provide the table, seating and the excitement.

Our primary service area covers Rosemary Beach, Santa Rosa Beach, Miramar Beach (30A / South Walton); Destin, Fort Walton Beach, Navarre, Pensacola (Emerald Coast); and Orange Beach, Tallahassee, Mexico Beach, Port Saint Joe (extended Gulf Coast). We also serve select surrounding Northwest Florida destinations on request.

Yes — these are three of our core markets. We travel to Rosemary Beach for beach rental events, to Destin for birthdays and family parties, and to Pensacola for private hibachi catering of all kinds.

Hibachi is one of the best birthday party formats available. The fire show, interactive cooking and chef performance make the birthday guest the center of attention. Add the Celebration Add-On for a custom birthday moment built into the performance.

We need a flat outdoor area of approximately 6 ft x 4 ft for the portable hibachi grill, plus nearby seating and a dinner table for guests. Patios, decks, backyards, pool decks, driveways and vacation rental outdoor kitchens all work well.

Every package includes: the portable hibachi grill and cooking tools, your fresh proteins and sides (hibachi vegetables, fried rice, noodles), signature house sauces, the full live fire show performance, and your private trained chef. Travel is included within our primary service area.

No — the host provides the dining table, guest seating and regular plates/utensils. If you'd rather skip cleanup, we offer an optional disposable setup add-on that includes plates, utensils and napkins for all guests.

We cook outdoors only for safety and ventilation. Covered outdoor spaces (lanais, covered patios, open garages, outdoor kitchens) are all great. We can't set up inside a living room or kitchen.

Most packages have a 10-guest minimum. We happily accommodate smaller intimate dinners with a minimum spend — just reach out and tell us about your event.

Yes — every guest picks their own protein or combo. Mix chicken, steak, shrimp, salmon, scallops, filet mignon or lobster all on the same grill. Vegetarian and kids plates are also available.

Yes. Our Kids Plate ($25 per kid, 12 and under) includes hibachi chicken, fried rice, vegetables and fresh fruit. Kids love the fire show and the interactive cooking — it's always a hit.

We recommend booking 2–4 weeks in advance for weekends in peak summer season and holiday weekends on 30A. Short-notice bookings are sometimes available — call us at (850) 851-4668 for same-week availability.

Absolutely — vacation rental hibachi catering is one of our specialties. We regularly cook at beach rentals, family vacation homes and condo outdoor kitchens across 30A, Destin, Miramar Beach and the Gulf Coast.

Florida weather can be unpredictable. If rain is forecast we'll coordinate with you before the event. A covered outdoor space (lanai, covered patio, open garage) allows the event to continue. If conditions are unsafe we'll work with you to reschedule or find an alternative.

Cancellations made more than 7 days before the event are eligible for a full deposit refund. Cancellations within 7 days may forfeit the deposit. Weather-related reschedules are handled case-by-case — we'll always work with you.

Gratuity is not included in package pricing. Industry standard is 18–20% of the food total, paid directly to your chef. Great service deserves great recognition — and our chefs work hard to earn it.

Yes. Hibachi is a memorable format for client dinners, team retreats, welcome events and corporate entertainment. We'll customize the package, manage invoicing and handle the logistics for you.
