Parents in the Dallas–Fort Worth and Austin areas are discovering that a hibachi party for kids is more than just dinner — it’s entertainment, laughter, and a one-of-a-kind experience that kids can’t stop talking about. With live cooking, chef tricks, and delicious food, hibachi turns birthdays, graduations, and family celebrations into memorable events.
Instead of hauling a group of kids to a busy restaurant, we bring the hibachi grill, professional chef, and all the fun to your home or chosen venue. From setup to cleanup, our goal is to make hosting effortless so you can enjoy the celebration right alongside your child.
Pricing for a Hibachi Party for Kids
Our kid-friendly pricing is simple: $25 per child with a $500 minimum booking for all events. This includes your private hibachi chef, fresh ingredients, cooking equipment, and live performance at your location. For mixed-age parties, adult pricing is $50 per person, so you can host parents, friends, and family in one event.
A city travel fee applies depending on your location:
- Dallas & Fort Worth: $100
- Austin: $200
- Surrounding suburbs: Confirmed upon booking
Premium protein upgrades like lobster, scallops, or filet mignon are available for an additional cost per guest — perfect for making adult meals extra special while keeping kids happy with their favorites.
Portions & Menu Picks Kids Love
Our kids’ portions are designed to satisfy without overwhelming younger appetites. The standard children’s hibachi plate includes:
- A smaller portion of protein (chicken, steak, or shrimp)
- Fried rice or steamed rice
- Grilled vegetables
- Salad with kid-friendly dressing
Chicken is the most popular choice for children’s parties, but we often see shrimp as a close second — especially for seafood-loving kids. We also offer vegetarian and tofu options upon request.
Because hibachi is cooked to order, kids can choose how they want their food prepared, making it easier to satisfy picky eaters.
Add-Ons Parents Love
Parents often choose add-ons to make the party even more exciting and stress-free:
- Premium proteins for adults in attendance
- Extra sides like noodles or additional veggies
- “Make It Stress Free” add-on: includes plates, utensils, and napkins so you don’t have to shop for supplies
- Dessert station to end the meal on a sweet note
The live hibachi performance doubles as entertainment, which means you can skip hiring additional activities or entertainers. The chef’s tricks — onion volcanoes, flying shrimp, and utensil spins — keep kids laughing from start to finish.
What We Bring vs. What You Provide
We arrive fully equipped with the hibachi grill, chef tools, utensils for cooking, and fresh ingredients. You’ll need to provide:
- Tables and chairs for guests
- Place settings (unless you choose our stress-free package)
- A flat cooking surface (outdoor or indoor with proper ventilation)
Many parents set up colorful tablecloths and themed decorations to match their child’s interests — superheroes, princesses, sports, or favorite colors — so the hibachi station blends right into the party’s atmosphere.

We can adjust proteins and sides on the spot to suit each child’s tastes.

Why Parents Choose Hibachi Parties for Kids
Parents love the combination of entertainment, quality food, and easy hosting. Instead of juggling multiple vendors for food and fun, you get both in one package. The interactive nature of hibachi keeps kids engaged, and the flexibility of our menu means everyone — from toddlers to grandparents — enjoys the meal.
Here’s what one happy mom had to say:
“My son’s 10th birthday hibachi party was the easiest party I’ve ever hosted. The kids were mesmerized by the chef, the food was delicious, and I didn’t have to lift a finger!” — Amanda T.
Hibachi catering also works well for graduation dinners, team celebrations, and family reunions where kids are part of the guest list.
