Last-minute hibachi bookings may be available depending on your event location, guest count, and chef availability. Weekends and popular dates often fill earlier, so submitting your event details as soon as possible gives the team the best chance of confirming your preferred date and time.

Guest count changes may be possible before your event, but they should be submitted as early as possible. Changes can affect menu quantities, staffing, pricing, and the event minimum. Final guest counts and any related adjustments must be confirmed by the Hibachi W team before the event date.

If your plans change, please contact the Hibachi W team as soon as possible. Cancellation requests are reviewed based on the timing of the request and your booking details.
