Graduation Party Hibachi Catering in RI, MA & CT — A Backyard Show for the Grad

Graduation party hibachi catering with SIFU starts at $800 for up to 20 guests — a private chef, a live-fire show, and dinner the whole family watches together, anywhere in Rhode Island, southeastern Massachusetts, and eastern Connecticut. Grandparents, classmates, and neighbors all get the same three-protein plate — chicken, steak, and shrimp standard, with fried rice, noodles, hibachi vegetables, salad, and edamame — while the grad gets a party nobody spends staring at their phone.

Why hibachi fits a graduation party

A graduation crowd is the hardest crowd to cater: teenagers, parents, and grandparents at the same tables. Hibachi solves it because the cooking is the entertainment — one vendor covers dinner and the show. We set up in backyards, on patios, or at your venue; a dedicated attendant handles service; and full setup and cleanup are included, so the parents get to be hosts instead of kitchen staff.

May and June dates go first

Graduation season compresses into a handful of weekends, and they book out. Reach out early with your date, town, and headcount. And if the guest list grows — joint parties, extended family, the whole team — SIFU scales with multi-chef stations for events up to 600 guests.

Add-ons worth considering

Dress up the spread with a fresh sushi display made on site. For college graduations and adult parties, add our licensed Full Bar Service — staffed and insured under our Rhode Island Class P license, something most hibachi caterers legally can't offer. Premium upgrades like filet mignon, lobster tail, and wagyu are available for the guest of honor.

Graduation party pricing

Up to 20 guests — $800 · up to 40 — $1,600 · up to 60 — $2,400, with $50 per additional guest between tiers. The quote is all-in — travel, setup, and cleanup included, gratuity the only exclusion, card payment accepted.
