Didn't know the word.

It stems from Japan and looked like this:
Hibachi table japan

US: why not use a bigger table with longer legs and put a gas grill in the middle?

Not sure if I'm right. Search results where sparse. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

I think in the U.S.A. it is usually the latter nowadays, where a cook also preps dishes for you? With a grill plate in the middle made out of sheet metal.

The former is traditionally japanese

The one in the US is based on teppanyaki. You sit at a table with a large metal griddle while someone cooks for you in a very performative way. Usually squirting sake in your mouth and shooting fire out of onions.

Fire onions you say? I'm intrigued.
