Hibachi Catering Across All of Franklin County
Franklin County — the Forgotten Coast. St. George Island's remote beach houses and Apalachicola's oyster town charm. Zero chain restaurants, all charm.

We regularly drive to Apalachicola and surrounding communities for milestone birthdays, family reunions, and small-town celebrations. Whether you're on a lakeside cabin, riverside farm, or classic small-town backyard, we bring the fire show to you. Because Franklin County has significant coastline, we're familiar with local fire-code restrictions on public beaches — but we cook on decks, patios, driveways, and pool areas so you keep the beachfront view without violating regulations. Vacation rental hosts in Franklin County often keep our number saved for guest concierge upsells. Peak season (roughly Memorial Day through Labor Day) fills our Franklin calendar 3-4 weeks in advance. Book early for June-August weekends, holidays, and Spring Break windows.
