Northwestern University Law School graduation weekend family dinners, Kellogg School of Management commencement weekend events, Northwestern's June graduation lakefront property gatherings, Central Street-area estate celebration dinners, and Lighthouse Landing Lake Michigan corridor anniversary events — a certified teppanyaki chef arrives at your Evanston property with everything needed. Evanston's dual identity — university community and North Shore lakefront residential market — creates consistent demand for the format that keeps graduation weekend families at the table instead of competing for restaurant reservations on the busiest dining weekend in Chicagoland.
The chef brings the propane teppan grill, all proteins including premium upgrades, fried rice, vegetables, miso soup, salad, house-made sauces, and complete equipment. For Northwestern graduation groups of 20–45, dual stations are available. Complete setup in 20–30 minutes, full performance for 90–120 minutes, complete cleanup when dinner ends. No gas hookup required at any Evanston property, vacation rental, or lakefront home.
Northwestern graduation weekend dates in June book 5–7 weeks ahead — if you have a commencement date, submit it now to reserve the chef.
Every Evanston event is confirmed with a deposit. Your date is locked as soon as you book — no double-bookings.
A single per-person rate covers your chef, grill, all ingredients, setup, and full cleanup.

Lake Forest, Evanston & North Shore Estate Events
Check AvailabilityNorthwestern Law School graduation weekend dinner for 28 family members — we rented a Central Street-area vacation home for the weekend and the hibachi chef was the anchor event of the trip. Every family member came in from a different city and we needed something that worked without restaurant logistics. Chef arrived fully self-contained, performed for two and a half hours, and the evening was unanimous: best graduation dinner we've done.
Anniversary dinner at our Lake Michigan lakefront home in south Evanston — 14 guests. The setting was already beautiful; the chef matched it completely. Premium proteins across the full table, 90 minutes of performance, and a cleanup so complete we couldn't tell the chef had been there. Exactly what the lakefront property deserved.
Research Park team dinner for 20 employees at our Evanston home — we needed something genuinely memorable for the team's quarterly milestone, not another restaurant block. The chef was professional, personable, and delivered a full live performance that had every engineer at the table engaged for two hours. Best team event we've done in five years at this company.
