Private Hibachi Catering in Fort Lauderdale
Fort Lauderdale is built for outdoor entertaining. With 300+ miles of inland waterways, the Intracoastal Waterway running through the heart of Broward County, and year-round subtropical weather, this city offers some of the best private dining backdrops in all of South Florida. Fork Yeah Hibachi has been serving Fort Lauderdale residents and visitors since day one, and we understand what makes a Broward County hibachi party different from anything else on the Gold Coast.
Our professional teppanyaki chefs arrive with everything needed to transform your backyard, pool deck, dock, or covered lanai into a private hibachi restaurant. There is no kitchen to clean, no groceries to buy, and no dishes to wash. We bring the flat-top grill, fresh ingredients, cooking oils, plates, utensils, napkins, and sauces. Your chef performs a full fire show juggling utensils, building onion volcanoes, tossing shrimp into guests' mouths while cooking a multi-course meal right in front of your party. After everyone eats, we pack up and leave your space spotless.
Fort Lauderdale's Best Spots for Private Hibachi
We have cooked at hundreds of locations across Broward County, and Fort Lauderdale's diverse residential landscape gives hosts plenty of creative options. Canal-side homes along the Intracoastal are our most common setup guests sit around the grill while boats cruise by at sunset. Las Olas waterfront townhouses and condos work perfectly for intimate dinner parties of 10 to 20 guests, with our chef setting up on the terrace or courtyard.
Beachside condos and rentals along A1A from Fort Lauderdale Beach north to Lauderdale-by-the-Sea are ideal for bachelorette weekends and group getaways. Weston's spacious pool decks and screened-in lanais are a favorite for family birthday parties and kids' celebrations. We have also set up on private yachts docked at Bahia Mar, on the rooftop decks of high-rises near the Riverwalk, and at beach houses south of Commercial Boulevard. If you have a flat outdoor surface of at least 6 by 3 feet, we can bring the hibachi experience to you.
Fort Lauderdale Neighborhoods We Serve
