Hibachi Catering in
San Francisco, California

Tech company team appreciation event — 40 employees at our SOMA-adjacent venue. We've done restaurant group buyouts, rooftop cocktail events, and private dining room events across the Bay Area, and this format was categorically better than any of them. The chef arrived fully self-contained, dual stations handled the full group, and every employee was genuinely engaged for 90 minutes of live fire teppanyaki. Our VP of People called it the best team event in four years of doing them. Every hiring manager on the team has asked us to book this for their next new hire cohort. Our permanent format for company milestones.

Pacific Heights estate anniversary dinner — 16 guests on our terrace. We've hosted private events at this property for nine years and this was the first format that matched the setting in the way I'd always hoped something would. The chef set up in 20 minutes, served wagyu and lobster tail across the full table, performed for 90 minutes with complete professionalism, and left the terrace exactly as it was. Our guests included people who attend private events at this level across the country and internationally — every person asked for the contact information before they left the building. Already planned for our next milestone.

Startup investor dinner at our Marina District home — 18 guests including founders, angels, and Series A investors. We needed a format that felt genuinely different from every VC dinner circuit event that everyone in the room has attended before. The live hibachi chef delivered exactly that: two hours of shared experience at the same table where every person was present and engaged simultaneously. Two investors called me specifically the next day to say it was the finest founder dinner they'd attended in the Bay Area. Our format for every future investor relationship event.
