We hired A1 hibachi for Father’s Day 2026 and had the best time! Ricky was such a fun host! He was very professional and kept the party vibe going! Every person was able to choose their own proteins, which was great for the more picky eaters in our group. He made the smaller kids feel included. The sake gun was the highlight of the day! Food was fresh and delicious, they even brought extra yum yum sauce for the party . Perfect for birthdays, girls night out, or even just a Sunday family get together. 10/10 would recommend.
