Reviews For Old Lahaina Luau

Four of us were on a recent cruise through the Hawaiian islands and booked this wonderful luau one evening. There are so many choices for luau in Hawaii that it was hard to pick, but after reading a lot of reviews and speaking with friends who have lived in Hawaii we chose old Lahaina luau. I’m really glad we did. From scheduling, communicating with the staff, to our arrival and the whole experience was wonderful. We got there early so we could explore the area a bit and make sure we got a good parking space and got to take some photos before dinner. Everyone involved was just so friendly and kind. Everyone had a good seat. A good view of everything. The food was good. The drinks were great and the show was just fantastic. We saw dancers and singers -very talented people all through dinner and then when dinner was over it was as if there was another show on top of it. Every performance told a story and I highly recommend old Lahaina luau.

The atmosphere was fantastic and the service was wonderful! The food was good, the portion was a little light for us on the main course but it was very tasty. The show was nice, very laid back. There is no fire or knives, it’s a very traditional show which was nice for us after having been to a more action packed luau in Oahu. Definitely recommend.

Old Lahaina Luau was an amazing experience! The staff were super friendly and ours checked on multiple times; let us know about everything we would see, eat, and drink; and took pictures of our family. They made everything easy and answered questions. The food was above what we expected. The appetizers were fun and tasty. The main course was so great that even my picky eating wife ate some of everything. I loved it all: so much flavor and a huge variety of dishes. The show was phenomenal. A Hula trip through Hawaii's history, it was full of beautiful costumes, fascinating athletic dances, and beautiful music. I highly recommend this experience for your family. It is full of the rich culture of the Hawaiian Islands and is done in a entertaining and educational way.

From the entrance to the end it was very well organized. Even with the large crowds. The bar and drinks were great. The food was alright. I gave it 4 stars as there was enough food and different kinds to find plenty. It was great to try authentic Hawaiian food. The show was excellent and told a good small bit of history.

The best luau experience of all Hawaii per the locals and they were 100% right. The moment you walk in the Hawaiian hospitality is on full display. You get lei'd by hula girls and then guided to your seats. The authentic Hawaiian food is amazing and delicious . The show was entertaining and informative.

We’ve been going here since I was a kid — I loved it then for all the activities (unearthing the pig, learning Hawaiian dances or games) and now I love it for the performances and vegan food options!! And the people. Everyone who works there is awesome. Our server team was David and Mia and they kept us fed and watered and drinking (open bar! lol). They helped out with my 11-month old nephew and gave us our banana bread take-home snack to go when we had to leave early. I’m vegan and another person is vegetarian and they were super helpful in getting us our separate food and explaining what it all was. I was very impressed! Loved the watermelon poke and the banana dessert was so big and decadent. The music and dance and storytelling is as always so impressive and beautiful. Would recommend this luau to folks with or without kids, vegan or not, etc. it’s for everybody! It used to be a buffet but that ended in 2020 and has been table service since.

We had such a great experience! The food was delicious, and the service was absolutely awesome. Our server, Spencer, was super kind and attentive — really made us feel welcome. I’d definitely recommend arriving 15–20 minutes early to get good parking and take advantage of the photo ops before it starts. We loved the unlimited drinks from the bar and getting to eat the local food. The show itself was incredibly fun, entertaining, and totally worth the money. Highly recommend!

Truly an Amazing experience! My wife and I both loved our time at the Old Lahaina Luau. The food was incredible, the entire staff was very nice, welcoming and attentive. The entertainment was outstanding, Loved every minute of it. the dancers and fire juggler portion blew my mind. At first I debated whether it was worth the price, But I'm so glad we decided to do it, Worth every penny for sure! This was definitely one of the most memorable thigs we did during our entire trip. Check it out, You will not be disappointed!
