All Reviews for Dinner Experiences in Oahu

It was more enjoyable to see it in person than to watch it on YouTube. On the way back, there was a service where you could take photos with the performers, which was also a lot of fun. The Royal Hawaiian Center is located in the heart of Waikiki, making it very convenient to get to and from. There were videos, and the music and dance were enjoyable to watch. The fire performances were also amazing.

ユーチューブで見るより、実際にみた方が楽しかったです。帰りに、出演者の方々と写真が撮れるというサービスがあり、それもとても楽しかったです。ロイヤルハワイアンセンターはワイキキの中心にあり、行き帰りもすごく楽でした。映像もあり、音楽や踊りも楽しく見れました。火を使ったパフォーマンスもすごかったです。

I recently had an amazing horse riding experience, and I couldn’t recommend it more! The ocean views were absolutely breathtaking, and the overall ride was incredibly peaceful and enjoyable. As a beginner, I felt completely at ease, thanks to the friendly and knowledgeable guides. It’s the perfect activity for anyone looking to relax and take in the natural beauty of the surroundings. I’ll definitely be coming back for another ride!

We chose Chief’s Luau for our honeymoon and it was one of the best moments of our trip. Chief made sure we laughed all the time and got impressed by the outstanding performance. Definetly worth it and we are sure we will go back.

Exceptional cruise! Great service; friendly staff; fantastic entertainment; overall experience was outstanding!!! Highly recommend!!

The show was great. It highlights the cultures of different Polynesian groups. We sign up for a tour guide inside the cultural center. It helps us schedule our activities for the whole day stay over there. The tour guides are students from their university. They are amazing. I can recommend this tour for families. The dinner buffet is sumptuous.

The park was a bit confusing, but the show in the end of the night was awesome!

What a great way to end off our Oahu trip! Mahalo to Mauka Luau!!

Fun evening, lots of different things to do and the show was top notch!

A wonderful event that my husband and kiddos all loved- a memory made together!

Perfect experience, exactly what I pictures + more!

It was overall an enjoyable experience. I had minor gripes I don’t recall anyone asking how we would like our steak cooked, some were medium, some were medium rare, I know it was a busy day but we found a hair. I enjoyed the drink selection and the bartender did a great job. The servers and staff were great. It was rather warm and it wasn’t until the way back that someone decided to open the “plastic windows” to allow more of a breeze. The Luau portion was just as enjoyable as everything else. I truly had a great time, and would definitely recommend.

Bring your family, all ages have a wonderful time, and there is plenty of different food choices!

The night was ran very smooth. Don't be fooled by its connection to a waterpark as we were worried of the authenticity, but they blew us away!

The upgraded cruise was well worth it for us, the food was divine!

Despite the weak yen and high prices in Hawaii, I wanted to experience something unique that I wouldn't normally get to do, so I found this tour.

At the designated meeting point, we were greeted on time by a large black Mercedes (with five rows of seats in the back). Since it was evening, there was a bit of traffic, but we arrived at the location in about an hour. The gate opened automatically, and we drove further to the venue where we were welcomed. At this point, the sense of something special and anticipation was building.

There was about an hour before the show and dinner started, so we had the freedom to stroll through the beautifully maintained garden and enjoy temporary seal tattoos (which can be easily removed with water and rubbing, but they last a while, so you can enjoy the afterglow even after the tour). There were also traditional Hawaiian games available, but participation was not forced, and we chose to spend our time wandering around.

When the show began, we enjoyed live singing, hula, and fire dancing. I think there were about five to six hula songs alone. At one point, there was an opportunity for those interested to take a simple hula lesson and dance together. On the day we participated, there happened to be a local group joining us (I later heard this is rare), and almost everyone enjoyed it. I think those who are willing to try things they don't usually do will have the most fun.

The fire dancing after dark was truly impressive.

As for the meal, it was delicious, as expected from Michel's supervision. The appetizers and salad were particularly moving. The main course was very filling, but I thought it would be better to reduce the amount of meat and enjoy it with sauce (I also wanted to try it with salt and pepper).

Time flew by, and after about two hours from the start of the meal, it was time to head home. On the way back, perhaps due to the lack of traffic, we arrived in just a little over 30 minutes.

Overall, I was very satisfied; I think this is a valuable tour that you can't experience around Waikiki.

円安&物価高のハワイですが、どうせなら普段体験できないことを！ということでこちらのツアーにたどり着きました。

指定の集合場所に、黒い大きなベンツ（後部シートが5列もあった）で時間通りにお出迎え。夕方の時間なので少し渋滞しますが、1時間ほどで現地到着。門扉が自動で開き、建物までさらに車で進み、会場でお出迎えを受けます。この時点で特別感＆期待感が高まります。
ショー&食事の開始まで1時間ほどあり、きれいに手入れされた庭の散策、シールタトゥ（濡らして擦れば取れるので安心、でもシャワーくらいではすぐにはは取れないので、ツアー後もしばらく余韻が楽しめます）など、自由に選んで過ごします。ハワイ伝統ゲームもありましたが、強制されるでもなく、私たちは散策で過ごしました。

ショーが始まると、生歌＆フラ、ファイヤーダンスが沢山楽しめます。フラだけでも5-6曲あったと思います。
途中、希望者で簡単なフラレッスン＆一緒に踊る機会もあり、私たちの参加日はたまたまローカルの団体さんも一緒だった（後で聞きましたが、珍しいそうです）のもあり、ほぼ全員で楽しみました。せっかくだから、普段やらないことにもチャレンジできる方の方が楽しめると思います。
暗くなってからのファイヤーダンスも圧巻です。

お食事は、さすがはミッシェルズ監修、とてもおいしかったです。特に前菜とサラダは感動もの。メインはボリューム満点ですが、お肉の量を減らしてソースを付けながら（塩コショウでも食べたかった）の方がいいなと思いました。

あっという間に時間が過ぎ、食事開始から2時間ほどで帰宅の時間に。帰りは渋滞無いせいか、30分ちょっとで到着しました。

総じて大満足、ワイキキ周辺では体験できない貴重なツアーだと思います。

I went with children who aren't very familiar with Elvis or Michael, but they had a great time. In addition, there are hula performances and fire shows, so I think it's a good show! Also, at the end, you can take photos with the performers and have conversations with them!

エルビスやマイケルをあまり知らない子供と行きましたがとても楽しんでいました。
それ以外にもフラやファイヤーショーなども見られるので良いショーだと思います！
また帰り際には出演者さんと一緒に写真が撮れ会話も交わせます！

Although the weak yen has resulted in considerable expenses, since I was going to board anyway, I booked a 5-star experience with fireworks on Friday and a course meal.

From the moment I boarded, I was guided to a special floor via the elevator, and the dinner set was nicely arranged at my seat, creating an excellent atmosphere.

Of course, the sunset was beautiful, and after the luxurious meal, there was a dinner show, followed by the fireworks viewed from the ship, which were breathtaking. Everyone moved to the side where the fireworks could be seen, making the boat feel like it was tilting a bit (laughs).

It became a wonderful memory of my trip to Hawaii. I highly recommend the 5-star experience!

円安でかなりの出費にはなりますが、どうせ乗船するなら、金曜日の花火付きで、コース料理も食べられる5スターを予約しました。

乗船する時から、エレベーターでの特別フロアへのご案内、席にはディナーセットがきちんと用意され、雰囲気も抜群。

サンセットはもちろんのこと、豪華なお食事の後はディナーショー、そして船上から見る花火は、圧巻でした。みんな花火が見える方に移動するので、気持ち船が傾いているような(笑)

ハワイ観光の良い思い出になりました。
5スター、おすすめです！

It was a beautiful evening on the ocean. The sunset was hidden behind clouds but you could see the rays from the sun peaking thru. The food was flavorful and an abundance of it. With a tremendous variety to choose from.

Eight years ago, my daughter, who was in elementary school, said she wanted to see it again, so we participated. Unlike last time, we had a buffet meal before the show started. I think the content of the show was almost the same as before. We enjoyed the look-alike show, hula, and fireman show, among other things.

8年前に小学生だった娘がまた見たいと言うので、参加しました、前回と違いショーが始まる前にビュッフェでお食事、ショーの内容は前回とほぼ同じような感じだったと思います。そっくりさんショーとフラやファイアーマンショーなど楽しめました。

The location is easy to find, right in the center of Honolulu. The buffet-style meal was decent; personally, I enjoyed the teriyaki chicken and what seemed like a sweet potato dish, as well as the delicious coconut jelly for dessert. During the meal, there are performances and dances that add to the atmosphere.

The show starts with a gentle hula dance, but then an Elvis impersonator comes out, and the dancers elevate the energy, leading to an exciting climax. The segments featuring Michael Jackson and the fire dance are particularly impressive, providing a thrilling experience. I believe you'll feel very satisfied after watching it.

場所もホノルル中心地でわかりやすいところにあります。
バイキング形式の食事はお味はまあまあ、個人的には照り焼きチキンとタロイモ？の大学いものようなもの、デザートのココナッツゼリーが美味しかったです。食事の時も演奏や踊りで盛り上げてくれます。

ショーは初めは緩やかなフラダンス形式ですが、途中からエルビス(のそっくりさん)が出てきて、周りをダンサーが盛り立て、佳境に入っていきます。
マイケルジャクソン、ファイアーダンスの辺りがすごく見応えがあり、ハラハラドキドキの連続で
見終わったあとはとても満足できると思います。

The person who picked us up was very gentlemanly, which made me excited, but one other group of participants did not arrive at the pickup location, and since we got there five minutes early, we ended up waiting over 15 minutes to depart. This isn't the organizer's fault, but it gave me a bad feeling from the start... and the van we were in was quite noisy.

When we arrived, we were guided to an outdoor area with nothing around, just some simple chairs and tables set up. I believe the venue is an important element of dinner experiences.

We were told to "enjoy the activities" while waiting for the meal, but there were no exciting activities, just taking photos, and we ended up with too much free time. Wouldn't it be better to set the pickup for a later time?

As soon as we arrived, my friend got bitten by a mosquito. When we spoke to the staff, they mentioned that there are many mosquitoes in the area. It would have been better if they had announced this upon arrival, even though insect repellent spray was provided.

The hula show was enjoyable, and I was satisfied with the meal, but when it comes to whether I would repeat this or recommend it to friends, unfortunately, the answer is "NO." For this price, I believe there are better options near Waikiki.

I have given a critical review, but I hope that various aspects can be improved so that it becomes a tour I would want to participate in again (*^^*).

お迎えの方はとても紳士的だったのでワクワクしたのですが、ピックアップ場所でもう1組の参加者が来られず、私たちはピックアップの5分前に到着していたので、結局15分以上出発を待つことになりました。これは主催者側の問題ではないですが、出足から嫌な予感…そしてお迎えの車(バン)の中は、ガタガタとうるさかったです。
到着して案内されたところは、何にもない野外で、簡易な椅子とテーブルが並べられたところでしたが、施設もディナーの大切な要素だと思います。
食事までの時間は「アクティビティを楽しんでください」とのことでしたが、心躍るアクティビティはなく、写真を撮って終わり、時間を持て余してしまいました。ピックアップをもっと遅めの時間で設定された方が良いのでは？
到着後すぐに友達は蚊に刺されてしまいました。スタッフさんに話すと「この辺は蚊が多い」とのこと。虫除けスプレーも用意されていましたが、到着した時点でアナウンスされた方が良いのではないでしょうか。
フラショーは楽しく食事とともに満足でしたが、リピートあるいは友達に紹介するかといえば残念ながら、「ＮＯ」です。このお値段でこの内容であれば、ワイキキ近くでももっと満足できるお店があると思いました。
辛口の評価になりましたが、いろんなところが改善されて「また参加したい」というツアーになることを期待しています(*^^*)

Star of Honolulu Sunset Cruise was amazing! My group had an awesome time, food was delicious, show was amazing as well. I was hoping for an actual Luau with the fire show. The service was great, very welcoming. Highly recommended!

I initially thought it would be an ordinary show since it started with hula dancing, but I enjoyed the diverse content, including impersonators of Elvis Presley and Michael Jackson, fire attractions, and aerial descents reminiscent of Cirque du Soleil. The theater also had a retro feel, creating a nice atmosphere.

After the show, the dancers from the Elvis and fire attraction were waiting near the exit, and I was pleased with the hospitality as they were willing to take commemorative photos. In the U.S., where prices are high, I appreciate it when shows like this offer discounted tickets.

フラダンスから始まったので、最初は凡庸なショーかなと思っていましたが、エルビスプレスリーとマイケルジャクソンのそっくりさんのショーや、ファイヤーアトラクションやシルクドソレイユを思わせる空中からの人の降下など、多彩な内容で楽しめました。劇場もレトロ感があり、良い雰囲気でした。
ショーが終わった後、エルビスとファイヤーアトラクションのダンサーが出口付近に待機しており、記念写真の撮影に応じてくれるなど、おもてなし感にも満足しました。米国は物価が高く、今回のショーのように、値引き販売してくれると、うれしいです。

Boarding Day: Friday
Boarding Course: 5 Star

If you're going to board, it's best to do so on a Friday when the Hilton fireworks are held. The fireworks themselves last about 5 minutes, but the combination of the night view of Waikiki and the fireworks from the sea is breathtaking.
Unfortunately, the sunset was not very impressive due to the clouds. I guess that's just luck...
However, the dinner was extremely delicious.
Also, the live performance was great.
I had previously boarded a 3 Star cruise, but I think I will only choose 5 Star in the future.
While it is more expensive compared to 3 Star, you should definitely go for 5 Star.

乗船曜日:金曜
乗船コース:5スター

乗船するなら、ヒルトンの花火が行われる金曜です。花火自体は5分程度ですが、海上からワイキキの夜景と花火のコラボは絶景です。
サンセットは雲があり、感動する感じではなかったのが残念でした。こればかりは運かと…。
でも、ディナーが非常に美味しかったです。
また、生演奏がよかった。
以前に3スターに乗船したことありましたが、今後は5スターしか選ばないと思います。
3スターに比べれば値は張りますが、5スターにすべきです。

The male driver holding a sign that said "HULA GARDEN" was at the meeting point, making it easy to find him. When we arrived at the venue, a hula girl welcomed us by placing a shell lei around our necks. After that, we played some games and received an explanation about the drink tickets from the Japanese staff, followed by an opening performance of hula and guitar. I had the impression that there would be several hula girls and performers, but throughout the event, there were only two hula girls, one guitarist and singer, and one fire dancer, totaling four performers who presented various performances. The hula girls changed their costumes frequently, so it was never boring. Since there were only six participants and a small number of guests, we were close to the performers, which made for a richer experience. There was also a hula dance experience, which was challenging but incredibly fun.

お迎えはHULA GARDENと書かれたプラカードを持った男性運転手の方が集合場所にいらっしゃったのでわかりやすかったです。
会場に到着すると、貝殻でできたレイをフラガールの方が首にかけて歓迎してくださいました。
それから少しゲーム等をしたり日本人スタッフの方からドリンクチケットの説明を受けたりしてからフラとギターのオープニングパフォーマンスがありました。勝手な印象で何人ものフラガールやパフォーマーの方たちが出演されるものかと思っていましたが、この日の最初から最後までフラガール2人、ギターと歌1人、ファイヤーダンス1人の計4人の方たちだけで色々なパフォーマンスをしてくださいました。フラガールの方たちは何時も衣装を変えてくださったので全く飽きることはありませんでした。
私たち参加者は計6人でゲストも少人数だった為、パフォーマーの方たちとの距離も近くてより濃い体験となりました。
フラダンス体験もあり、難しいながらもすごく楽しかったです。

It was a lovely experience! Crew was amazing and entertainment was fun. Food was also very good. Only issue I had was I ordered 2 Mai tias. One alcoholic ,one non alcoholic and they charged me same price for each…$10 a piece. I do not think a drink that only contained fruit juice and no alcohol should have been the same price.
Other then that, it was a beautiful cruise

Even with standard seating our seats were close to the stage and our view was very good. Venue doesn’t offer the tropical and natural setting and backdrop (high rise in background of all our photos), but it was close to our hotel and didn’t consume several hours of our day/night going/returning on a bus.
Entertainment was very good and the food was good. All luaus are expensive, so no real bargains.
Overall, we are glad we went and had the experience.

It was my first experience, and I was able to feel Hawaii. There were various events, and it became a lifelong memory. It was fun!

初めての体験で、ハワイを感じる事ができました。
色々なイベント事があり、一生の思い出になりました。
楽しかったデス

It was a wonderful show where I could enjoy various genres of music and dance. The quality of the singing and dancing was also high.

いろいろなジャンルの音楽やダンスを楽しめて素晴らしいショーでした。歌やダンスのクオリティも高かったです。

In the evening, I left the hustle and bustle of Waikiki and was guided to a private garden overlooking Kaneohe Bay by a welcoming car. As the gate opened, a breathtaking view unfolded before me: a sea landscape with palm trees and the small island of Chinaman's Hat floating across the lagoon, and behind it, a divine sight where clouds and light intersected on the layered mountain slopes, like a dream.

In one corner of the vast property, a small open-air venue was set up, allowing us to stroll through the garden and learn about traditional games until dinner began, providing a leisurely and luxurious experience. The sense of privacy, unlike that of conventional large venues, made me feel as if I had been invited into someone's home.

Dinner was served amidst the flowing sounds of strings and pleasant live vocals. We could enjoy drinks freely with two tickets, and without any language barriers, beautiful dishes were served leisurely, making the two-hour dinner feel surprisingly short. The meal, from appetizers to salads and then the main course, exceeded all expectations in deliciousness, and I regretted leaving any behind. Next time, I thought I should skip lunch before coming. The meat cut effortlessly with a knife, and the salad dressing was wonderful.

The changing scenery of the evening was beautifully complemented by elegant hula dancing, truly a dreamlike Hawaii. As the sun set, the intensity of the fire dance was thrillingly close. Memories that could not be gained just from Waikiki were vividly added. I felt a bittersweet longing, recalling my late mother and the times we came to Hawaii; I wished I could have brought her here. The photos taken with the dancers at the end (not an extra charge!) will surely become treasures for many families looking back.

Thank you to the staff who created a memorable night that transcended the concept of an optional tour, and for your kind consideration.

夕刻にワイキキの喧騒を離れ、迎えの車でカネオヘ湾を臨むプライベートガーデンに案内されました。
門が開くと眼前にはラグーン越しに、ヤシの木とチャイナマンズハットの小島が浮かぶ海の風景が広がり、背後には幾重にも重なる山肌に雲と光が交差する神々しい光景が、夢のようで。
その広大な敷地の一角に、オープンエアーの小ぶりな会場がセットされていて、食事開始まで庭を散策したり、伝統的な遊びを紹介していただき、ゆったりとした贅沢な時間を過ごしました。
従来の大規模な会場では得られないプライベート感が、個人宅に招かれたような気持ちにさせてくれました。
流れる弦の音と心地よい声の生演奏の中、お食事がサーブされます。飲みものも2杯のチケットで自由にいただけ、言葉の心配もなく、美しい料理がゆったり運ばれ2時間の夕食が逆に短く思えた程です。
お食事は、前菜からサラダ、そしてメインへと予想を遥かに超える美味しさに、残すのが不本意で、次回はお昼は抜きにして来るべきと。お肉がナイフを入れるとスッと切れ、サラダのドレッシングがまた素晴らしく。
そして夕刻の変わりゆく風景にフラダンスが優雅に大変美しく、まさに夢に見るハワイ。日が沈むとファイヤーダンスの至近距離にハラハラする程の迫力。ワイキキだけでは得られなかった思い出が色濃く加わりました。
もう亡くなってしまった母と昔来たハワイ、ここに連れてきてあげたかったなと切なく思い返していました。最後にダンサーの皆様と撮って頂いた写真（別料金ではありません！）が、振り返れば宝物になるご家族多いと思います。
オプショナルツアーという概念を超える、思い出に残る一夜を演出して頂いたスタッフの皆様、優しいお心遣いありがとうございました。
