Newport Beach and nearby Balboa Island are prime year-round beach getaways. The climate is mild, with a high premium placed on sophisticated indoor-outdoor living. Stunning oceanfront properties, a buzzy local dining scene and access to fresh ingredients from local markets mean you’re in the right spot for creative culinary experiences.
We had an absolute blast during our private dinner thanks to our hibachi chef, Lucky! From the moment he lit the grill, the energy at the table was nonstop. He had the perfect balance of humor, skill, and showmanship—and keeping everyone laughing the entire time. What really stood out was how engaging he was with every guest at the table. The food was cooked perfectly, but the experience itself was what made it unforgettable. If you’re looking for more than just dinner—something interactive, entertaining, and delicious—you can’t go wrong with hiring a private Hibachi chef!
The chef was good and very entertaining. We had a great evening.
Beyond expectations. Highlight of our trip. Involved the kids in such a sweet and fun way. Food was also delicious. We want to do this every time we come back.
