hibachi grill

Japanese charcoal brazier

A hibachi grill is a small, portable charcoal grill traditionally used in Japanese cooking, featuring an open-top design and a grate over hot coals.

In American usage, hibachi often refers to the flat-top griddles used at Japanese steakhouses where chefs cook directly in front of diners: We went to the hibachi grill for her birthday.
