About Arigatou Teppanyaki

This family-run Broadbeach fixture delivers dinner and a show without the corporate stiffness. Pull up a stool along the hot iron teppan and let chef Emma work the crowd. Guests return for the easy chatter and kitchen banter just as much as the roaring flare-ups and knife tricks. Generous set banquets take the guesswork out of dinner, heaping the grill with steak, king prawns, and heaps of fried rice that keep both restless kids and adults happy. Order the seared scallops and a cold sake while the butter and garlic sizzle.

  • High-energy table-side show: Owner-chef Emma runs the grill with lively stories, knife juggling, and theatrical fire displays right in front of diners.
  • Hearty combination banquets: Generous multi-course sets balance garlic steak, fresh prawns, scallops, and fried rice for groups and families.
