DESTIN, FLORIDA
Private Hibachi
Chef in Destin, FL
You rented the beach house. Now nobody wants to load everyone into two cars and wait for a table on Highway 98. Our chef pulls up to your address in Destin, sets up the grill on the deck or in the driveway, and cooks in front of your group — dinner and the show in one, usually done in about an hour and a half.
Where We Cook in Destin
Most Destin parties happen somewhere other than a permanent home. Here's where we usually end up.
Beach House Rentals
Destin Pointe, Holiday Isle, and the Gulf-front rentals along Scenic 98. Deck, patio, or driveway all work — we bring everything the rental kitchen doesn't have.
Condo and Resort Stays
Sandestin, Silver Shells, and the towers along the harbor. We'll work with whatever outdoor space the property allows.
Backyards in Town
Year-round residents in Destin, Crystal Beach, and Indian Bayou. No rental rules to check, no setup limits.
After a Day on the Water
Crab Island, HarborWalk Village, or a charter out of East Pass — the group comes back hungry and nobody wants to change clothes for dinner.

Larry and Leo were the absolute best.they made my 40th birthday the best that it could be. We had 33 people and they absolutely killed it. The best birthday I could ever ask for.

Leo was great! Not only was the food excellent, but he made a real show of it. His juggling skills are incredible and our large group of 15 had an incredible time. We loved the crowd involvement, especially with the Saki water gun! Thank you for such a great time. 5/5 would definitely recommend.
