What Happinow is referring to is Japanese style hibachi grilling and there is really no surprises to it. We've been to Japaneese restaurants many times both in NYS and in Southern California (but now down here yet) and it's been an enjoyable and entertaining experience each and every time and we never saw anyone seated with us that didn't look like they weren't enjoying themselves.

The hibachi setup is basicly a rectangle setup where the hibachi chef in on one side and there are seats around the other three sides. Usually seats about 8 diners. The fresh, uncooked food (beef, chicken, shrimp, salmon, etc. - depending on what the diners have ordered) is brought out by the chef and then prepared and distributed to each diner. A good habachi chef will be quite entertaining.

I recall one day when we brought our young son for a hibachi dinner where the chef cut off the tails on the shrimp, scooped them up on his Spatula then held them over our sons dish asking... "You ordered this?" Needless to say our son got a kick out of that, and a chuckle!
