Occasions
Richmond’s Point Richmond and Marina Bay families celebrate milestone birthdays at home — the guest of honor gets the chef’s full attention, from the onion volcano to the sake pour. The crowd gets dinner and a show, and the hosts enjoy their own party.
Richmond High and Kennedy High grads — East Bay graduation season books out fast. A backyard hibachi night beats a packed restaurant every time. June weekends go first — reserve when the caps are ordered.
Big East Bay families gather around one grill — from San Pablo to El Cerrito, the kids love the zucchini toss, the adults love the sake pour, and nobody cooks or cleans. Three generations around one grill is our favorite sight.
Richmond and El Cerrito offices book us for team dinners and client nights people actually remember. We set up on your office patio or a team member’s backyard — hot food, live entertainment, and zero cleanup.
