What Is Teppanyaki and Why Do People Love It?

Before diving into the grill, it helps to understand what makes teppanyaki so special. This style of Japanese cuisine has earned global popularity for combining flavor, fire, and a touch of performance art.

A blend of flavor, fire, and fun

Teppanyaki refers to cooking on a flat-top iron grill — the teppan — where chefs sear meats, seafood, vegetables, and rice in real time. Guests love the sound, smell, and visual thrill of the process. At Japan Inn, this becomes a complete dining event that engages all the senses.

How teppanyaki differs from traditional hibachi

Although the terms are often used interchangeably, there’s a key difference. Traditional hibachi uses a small open-grate grill, while teppanyaki uses a flat griddle. What many call “hibachi” in the U.S. is actually teppanyaki cooking — and that’s exactly what Japan Inn delivers: modern, interactive, chef-led grilling that ensures consistent flavor and exciting presentation.

A social and shared experience

Teppanyaki is ideal for groups — families, friends, coworkers — who want to dine together and enjoy a lively meal. The seating setup allows everyone to gather around the grill, creating a shared moment that’s perfect for celebrations or casual nights out.
