Private Hibachi Catering — Vista, California
Vista is North County’s easygoing backyard town — family neighborhoods, craft brewery culture, and evenings at the Moonlight Amphitheatre. Terra Hibachi fits Vista perfectly: a private chef in your own yard, fresh hibachi cooked live, and a relaxed dinner party where the host gets to sit down and enjoy it too.
