    Review summary

    4.5
    Excellent
    6K reviews•Google Maps

    Most visitors rave about the theatrical performance itself, which consistently stands out as the evening's highlight. The show features talented performers, impressive production values, and engaging storytelling that captures Hawaiian culture. Guests appreciate thoughtful touches like the lei greeting, optional train rides where you can feed animals, and the imu ceremony. The food gets generally positive feedback, with many finding it tasty and plentiful, though a few found it just average. Some practical considerations: seating location matters significantly for the experience, with back tables feeling disconnected from the action. The venue handles large crowds, and while most found operations smooth, a few guests felt the pacing between activities dragged or the exit process chaotic with everyone leaving simultaneously. Sound levels during the show run quite loud. Several reviewers mention this was their favorite luau across multiple Hawaiian visits, and return guests speak highly of the consistent quality that brings them back.

    The pork was a little salty for me because I hardly ever use salt but the rest was tremendous
