Private Teppanyaki in Rochester

Private Hibachi Chef in Rochester

Rochester is a city built around the milestone. The family that moved here for a Mayo Clinic fellowship and stayed for a career. The medical professional celebrating a graduation that the whole extended family flew in for. The couple marking twenty years in a community that has become home in ways they didn't expect when they took the position. Private hibachi at your Rochester home brings a certified teppanyaki chef to your backyard or patio with the full setup — propane teppan grill, hand-selected proteins including premium filet mignon and lobster tail for milestone occasions — and a live-fire performance built for the evening your guests have been anticipating.

Your chef arrives with everything: teppan grill, propane, all proteins, fried rice, vegetables, house-made sauces, plates, and chopsticks. Setup takes 20 minutes in your backyard or outdoor space. The performance runs 90–120 minutes from first flame to final plate — fire tricks, knife work, and every plate cooked to order in front of your Rochester guests. Full cleanup when dinner is done. Your property is spotless when the chef leaves.

Rochester private events book 2–3 weeks ahead. Graduation season (May–June) and spring milestone dates fill 4–6 weeks out. Serving Rochester and all of Olmsted County — Byron, Stewartville, Kasson, and surrounding southeast Minnesota communities. Starting at $60/adult, $600 minimum. Premium protein packages available.

"20th anniversary dinner. We've always gone to restaurants and wanted something different. The chef came to our home, cooked in the backyard, and it was without question the best anniversary dinner we've had. Planning the 25th already."
