Occasions
Truckee cabin groups — this is our specialty. After a day at Northstar, our chefs cook at your rental’s patio or driveway while the group relaxes. No restaurant reservation, no splitting checks, no driving in the snow. Apres-ski hibachi nights are some of our favorite parties.
Truckee and North Lake Tahoe weddings deserve a private-chef rehearsal dinner — our chefs grill at your rental or venue while your wedding party relaxes. Mountain rehearsal dinners with a live hibachi show are the ones guests talk about for years.
Truckee 40ths, 50ths, and 60ths deserve a mountain backdrop — the guest of honor gets the chef’s full attention, from the onion volcano to the sake pour, with the pines as the setting.
Donner Lake summer weekends — our chefs grill at lake-area rentals while the group enjoys the water. Summer weekends in Truckee book out fast; reserve before the season starts.

Yes — vacation rentals and cabins are our most common Truckee venue. We cook on the rental’s patio, deck, or driveway; just confirm outdoor space and vehicle access for our grill load-in when you book, and check the rental’s rules on outside vendors. In winter we just need a cleared setup area and safe vehicle access.
Yes — we cook year-round, including peak ski season. Our chefs work through mountain winters; apres-ski hibachi nights after a day at Northstar are some of our favorite parties. Book holiday weekends early — Christmas to New Year’s dates go first.
