About Hayashi Teppanyaki Restaurant

Hayashi Teppanyaki turns dinner into lively tableside theater, pairing fast-paced cooking with shared laughter. Families and birthday parties pack the U-shaped grill counters for an interactive meal where chefs slice, sizzle, and toss bites of food across the hotplate for diners to catch. The multi-course sets deliver hot-off-the-teppan steak, chicken, and egg fried rice before wrapping up with deep-fried ice cream drizzled in strawberry, caramel, or chocolate sauce.

  • Interactive teppan showmanship: Chefs work the communal hotplates with quick banter, flame flair, and food-catching games that keep multi-generational groups engaged.
  • Crisp fried ice cream finish: Multi-course set menus conclude with battered, golden deep-fried ice cream finished with your choice of sweet toppings.

What can you expect from the set menus and portion sizes?

Set menus such as Sakura, Ume, and Take include grilled meats, seafood, fried rice, and sides, though portion impressions vary among adult diners. Many sets finish with deep-fried ice cream.
