Columbia graduation party for fifty guests. Two chef stations, everything running simultaneously, complete cleanup after. Howard County does milestones right — this format was perfect for what we wanted.

Hibachi at Home in Ellicott City
Hibachi at Home in Ellicott City
Ellicott City is the most historically rooted address in Howard County — the Old Ellicott City stone mill district and the 18th-century Main Street that draws visitors from across the state, and the Turf Valley and Centennial Park residential neighborhoods that represent some of the highest-income ZIP codes in Maryland. The graduation and milestone culture in Ellicott City is shaped by the same diverse, high-achieving community that has made Howard County the benchmark for residential excellence in the Baltimore-Washington corridor: South Asian and East Asian families who mark graduation not as an ending but as the most important celebration of the academic chapter, and the multi-generational extended family networks who gather at the Ellicott City backyard because the celebration needs to happen in a space that can hold everyone who matters. Hibachi at home in Ellicott City brings a certified teppanyaki chef to your property with the full setup, dual-station capacity for large milestone gatherings, and a live-fire cooking performance that turns any Howard County backyard into the dinner your guests plan around for years.
Your chef arrives with everything: teppan grill, propane, all fresh proteins, fried rice, vegetables, house-made sauces, plates, and chopsticks. For Ellicott City graduation and milestone events over 25 guests, we bring two chef stations running simultaneously. Setup takes 20–30 minutes in your backyard. The performance runs 90–120 minutes from first flame to final plate. Full cleanup when dinner is done.
Ellicott City graduation weekends (May–June) book 2–3 weeks ahead. Serving Ellicott City and all of Howard County — Columbia, Owings Mills, Catonsville, Clarksville, Maple Lawn, and surrounding communities. Starting at $60/adult, $30/child, $600 event minimum. Most quotes confirmed same day.

Our Ellicott City anniversary dinner was exactly what we wanted — a private chef at home, premium proteins, the whole performance just for our group. No restaurant comparison. Worth every dollar.

Bar mitzvah celebration dinner in Owings Mills. The format worked beautifully — the whole extended family at the same grill, traditional food preferences respected throughout, and the performance kept the teenagers completely engaged.

“
Booked for my daughter's graduation in Columbia. Best decision we made. The chef arrived on time, set up completely independently, performed for two hours, and left our backyard cleaner than he found it.
