University of Southern Mississippi commencement is one of the most concentrated restaurant-booking events in south Mississippi. Every Hattiesburg restaurant with a private room or a table for 20 fills by February for May commencement weekend. Families flying in from Texas, Alabama, and Georgia for their USM graduate's big weekend are left competing for two-tops. Private hibachi comes to your Hattiesburg home before the season ever starts.
The chef arrives at your home near Oak Grove, your Petal address, or any Hattiesburg-area property with outdoor space, sets up the full self-contained teppan grill, and performs the complete dinner for every family member at once — every order individually cooked, every guest at the same table for 90 minutes.
We serve Hattiesburg, Oak Grove, Petal, Laurel, Purvis, Columbia, and all of south Mississippi. USM commencement weekend dates fill by January — book your Hattiesburg graduation event now.
Every Hattiesburg event is confirmed with a deposit. Your date is locked as soon as you book — no double-bookings, no last-minute uncertainty.
A single per-person rate covers your chef, grill, all ingredients, setup, and full cleanup.

Hattiesburg families — USM graduation hosts, Oak Grove suburban households, and the growing Hattiesburg professional community — have found that private hibachi solves the graduation-weekend restaurant scramble while delivering the best group dinner format in south Mississippi. Here's what Hattiesburg hosts are saying:
Check AvailabilityOur son graduated from USM and we had 24 family members coming in from five different states. Every Hattiesburg restaurant is fully booked by February for commencement weekend. The private hibachi chef came to our home near Oak Grove, set up in the backyard, and performed for the whole family at once. The best graduation dinner any of our family has ever attended.
I hosted a 45th birthday party for my wife at our Hattiesburg home — 18 guests. I'd priced out every Hattiesburg and Gulf Coast option and nothing could hold that group with the quality I wanted for her milestone. The hibachi chef at home was the answer. Live performance on the back patio, her favorite proteins, and full cleanup. She said it was the best dinner party of her life.
Our USM staff had a departmental celebration at a colleague's Hattiesburg home — 16 people. We'd done team dinners at Crescent City Grill and other local options before. The private hibachi chef at home was a completely different experience. Private space, live performance, everyone at the same table. The best departmental event we've done.
