Amazing experience! Perfect ocean views , great cocktails , authentic food, incredible show. Can't recommend enough.

Tom McGhan

Couple things: Head to the pit early to see the pig unearthing (you'll get a good spot). Tip your server, who is sure to give you excellent service. Get a DD because it's an all-inclusive open bar !

Robert Metcalf

I was leery at first but now I'm a convert. Great food - the pulled pork and the tuna poke are fabulous - and even better service. Drinks are included in the price so enjoy. I'll be going back.

Brian Strauss

The best in Lahaina. Plenty of very good food and bottomless drinks . The pork in particular. But the show is tops and touches on not only Hawaiian hula but styles from all of Polynesia.

Jacy Higa

I'm a bit prejudice w/luau's bcuz i used to work at one, bt you can't come to Hawai'i & not see one! All the luau's are great but Old Lahaina has the best location & views . Food, drinks & show is fab!

Justin

Easily the most authentic luau on Maui. Tickets are expensive but all inclusive - all you can drink and eat. Pig is unearthed ~30min before the meal.

Jennifer Antelman

This is fantastic. Hands down the best luau in Maui. Skip the hotel ones and come here. Reserve a spot a week or two in advance.

Runqiu Cai

Mai tais are great! If check in is 5:45, food is not served until 6:45/7. Excellent service !

Neha Sebastian

Amazing experience!! Book early to get the floor seating near the stage.

John Price

Best one on the island , & the oldest food was excellent staff very friendly , head chef comes around to make sure you enjoyed your food& it’s an open Bar

April Frink

Ask for Tim. I forgot his daughter's name but she's a dancer here too. Awesome food, great staff , better show. Also there aren't really any bad seats so I preferred the chairs over the ground

Pablo Kenney

Awesome! Incredible food, drinks, and dancing . Highly recommended

Traditional seating books fast so ask to be put on the wait list. Good performance , abundant buffet style food, and sugary cocktails .

Jason S

Maka is a great server and dancer. Drink up, the mixed drinks are pretty weak. Had to switch from missles to guns aka beer to keep the good time alive. Best luau in Hawaii, so much history.

Megan Farrell

Had a great time. Liked the mix of history with dancing and music ... food was delicious and open bar is a def plus... Devon was a great server!

Brad Mays

There can be a month-long wait list. But, if you call the day you want to go after 10:30, spots free up on the wait list. Worth the effort.

Don't be afraid to try the poi. It's the bland pinkish goo pounded from Taro . It's used as a palette cleanser between each powerful, exotic dish. Read more

Michael Barber

Awesome luau. Staff are super friendly and attentive. Food is great considering they are feeding a couple hundred people. All around a great evening.

Garry Tan

So fun! Get tickets in advance. Well worth the price.

Keegan Wood

Nicest servers you will ever meet and the ahi poke is amazing.

Rob Days

Was sitting in the front row traditional style excellent show and food just wish the wind was calmer it was blowing sand everywhere

Panos Aski

Just EPIC! Great show unlimited great food and drinks and great service and atmosphere!!

Kristina

Great food AYCE , entertainment, and open bar ! Try it all!! Mat seating is right in front, but your back starts to hurt and legs get numb.

Michelle A.

The performers and staff are great. Service with a smile even when it was raining. They give you banana bread to take home.

Josh Pyles

This was a lot of fun and the food was delicious too. Highly recommended.

Jason Hiatt

Excellent show, highly recommend it. Listen to their suggestions because they are always good.

Holly Beretto

Best luau on the islands , wonderful dancing and filled with aloha! If you only do one luau, it must be this one!

Dan Harris

Try the Lava Flow . Light rum , pineapple , coconut juice and strawberry .

Melissa B.

We'd come here again in a heartbeat. Food was great, drinks were great, and the atmosphere and staff really made the night special. One of the more authentic Luaus .

Wendy Moss

They sell out of tickets way in advance, but if you call early on in your vacation, they may be able to get you in-as long as you're not picky on which day you go!

Dan Spinosa

If you like medieval times, and/or you're 12 years old, you'll love this shit! Otherwise, drink your face off, and you'll love this shit!

Inna G

Nice outdoor space . Great service. Food is just ok as expected since its more about the show and experience itself. Pricey

Kirste Mitchell

The Lava Flow has amazing pineapple-coconut sorbet "volcano " in the middle surrounded by light rum & fruit juices .

Tom Fox

Pricey but a nice dinner and show

Mary Ann Rutherford

Totally worth the money, take in the amazing ambiance and open bar !

Nikki Foster

Maybe because it's post-Covid they had to downscale the experience. Compared to other luaus I've experienced, this one was very lackluster and the food was just ok. Not sure I'd return.

Michael Figueiredo

Amazing experience. All seats are good!

Mike Chan

Choose the traditional seating and you will be right next to the performance

Bill Murphy

Nice dancing , service, food...buy no fire dancing .....

Lisa Mays

Plan far enough in advance. This place was booked a month out.

Rachel Z

Worth the money! Amazing experience!

Ivelis B

Best luau ever and I've gone to more than 5!

Dave Pazamickas

Make sure you get seconds quickly. They clean up dinner very early.

Amy Beeson

Everything is amazing.

Rodery Ruivivar

Everything

Aditya Ambadkar

Food for vegetarians is just ok, drinks felt diluted, entertainment was good

Craig !!

Not worth the hype. Most the food had no flavor, nothing that sets it apart from US mainland food, well booze to ensure a hangover if you drink enough (cuz they're weak,) but a fantastic view .

Tony Berger

The best luau we ever attended!

Gerrie Bourque

Book early for best seats

Maya

Save room for dessert
