What your quote actually includes
The rehearsal dinner they'll talk about at the reception.
San Diego weddings pull everyone to the coast, and the smartest couples put the rehearsal dinner on a Mission Bay patio or a Carlsbad backyard instead of another restaurant back room. The marine layer burns off, the grill lights up, and the wedding weekend starts a day early.
For micro-weddings up to about 100, we run one chef and grill per 28 guests — ceremony to dinner without changing venues.

The moments we design
Every wedding has a highlight. Our chefs build the show around yours.
Two families, one show
The egg toss doesn't care which side of the aisle you're sitting on. By the second trick, the in-laws are cheering for each other.
The golden-hour flame
Time the big flame to sunset and the photographer gets the shot that outperforms half the wedding album.
A couple that actually eats
Every married couple says the same thing: we never got to eat. At a hibachi table, dinner IS the event — the couple sits front row and eats first.

Wedding in San Diego FAQ
Can you cater our actual wedding reception?
For intimate weddings — backyard ceremonies, micro-weddings, elopement dinners up to about 100 guests — absolutely: we run one chef and grill per 28 guests under a single booking. For a formal plated reception for 150+, we'll be honest: that's banquet territory, and where we shine instead is the rehearsal dinner, welcome party, or after-party of that same weekend.
How does a hibachi rehearsal dinner work?
Pick the house — a family backyard, your rental, the Airbnb where the wedding party is staying. The chef arrives about 10 minutes early, cooks course by course with the full show, and cleans up while your families keep talking. Most rehearsal dinners run 25–50 guests across two grills, and we can hold the date for you.
How much space do we need?
About a 6x8 ft flat area for the grill plus roughly 10 ft of overhead clearance, in open air — a patio, deck, driveway, or yard all work. The cooking stays outdoors; your guests can eat inside if you like. Send a photo when you book and we'll confirm the setup spot before your date.
How much does it cost?
$59.90 per adult and $29.90 per child (5–12) on the Standard Plan — kids under 5 eat free — with a $599 event minimum. That includes the chef, the live show, 2 proteins per guest, fried rice, vegetables, salad, setup, and cleanup.
