My friend and I went to this Luau at the Hilton. Wwhen I heard where it was I thought it was strange to be on top of the roof of a building but you really have nice view of the Lagoon and the Ocean. I like that the tables are a U shape around the stage because everyone had a great view of the dancers! They even had me up on stage to try and blow the Conch Shell, it was hard but I did it! The food was really good, I went back for seconds of the Poke and Pork. The dancers were really talented and the fire twirling guys at the end were awesome.

This was my first time participating, and I enjoyed it from start to finish. The food was great in a buffet style, and the main show was absolutely amazing!! There were guest participants, and it was really entertaining. The final fire dance was very powerful, and I couldn't take my eyes off it.
After the show ended, I was able to take photos with the dancers, so I am very satisfied.
今回初めての参加でしたが、最初から最後まですごく
楽しめました。ご飯もビュッフェスタイルで良かったし
なんといってもメインのショーが最高でした!!
ゲスト参加もあり、ホントにおもしろかったです。
ファイナルのファイアーダンスはとても迫力があり
目が離せませんでした。
ショーが終わったあと、ダンサー達と写真もとれたので
とても満足です。

Seating began a traditional ‘Oli (prayer) in the hall of the Royal Hawaiian. It was nice to know Hawaiians stick with protocol nowadays. One could almost feel as if being present at a Royal ball, after all, that is exactly what this Hotel was built for in the first place; which made the atmosphere quite unique.
As you approach the lawn and with your first drink you are invited to spooned portions of fresh Ahi Poke, Kalua Pig, Lomi Salmon, and Poi. Story-teller Joe starts by introducing himself and went directly into explaining what ingredients each spoon held and how it applied to Hawaiian post-western contact life. At the same time others from the hula halau demonstrated how kapa was made, inks were produced and designs printed. Ropes were intertwined by hand and foot and other chores were explained by docent-like-ladies-in-waiting. The Pupu platter was my favorite with the skewered chicken, crab cakes, and Butterfish that melted in your mouth.
With a unique approach, each en

Whenever I come to Hawaii, I make it a point to participate in a luau show. This time, I attended the show at the Hilton Hotel for the first time, and it was a lot of fun. Also, everything was in English.
I was quite disappointed that the venue was on the rooftop of a building. The ones I've attended before were all near the ocean, which created a much better atmosphere and was very pleasant. It may vary from person to person, but for me, being on the rooftop just didn't quite do it. I don't think I'll participate again next time.
The food was average. They also had options for children, which I think is great for those with little ones.
ハワイに来たら毎回ルアウショーに参加することにしてます。今回初めてヒルトンホテルのショーに参加しましたが、ショーはとても楽しかったです。あと、すべて英語です。
開催場所がビルの屋上だったことが、私にはとても残念でした。今までに参加したものは、海の近くばかりだったので、とても雰囲気がよく気持ちがいいものでした。人それぞれだと思いますが、私は、屋上であることが、正直いまひとつでした。次回は参加しないと思います。
お料理は普通でした。お子様用も用意されていて、小さい子をお連れの方にはよいと思いました。

This was such a unique and a culture learning experience. We had a great time celebrating the history of Hawaii and its main events that occurred in the past. The food was delicious and quiet filling. The appetizer and the entree were my favorites. YUM! As you entered the Aha Aina, you're welcome with the many smiles from the staff, with their signature drink and their delicious pupus of Kalua pork, ahi poke, or poi. The staff were friendly, and the service was excellent! We will definitely recommend this event to our friends and family. We will do this again on our next visit to Hawaii!

I had to wait in line for what felt like forever to enter the venue. It seemed that taking photos for each group at the entrance was the cause of the congestion, but couldn't they find a better way to manage that? The food was also hotel cuisine, and it could have been improved. It wasn't good. As for the show, the one at Sheraton Kauai was more interesting as it traced the history of Hawaii. Overall, it was quite disappointing.
会場に入るのにこれでもかというくらいならんで待たされた。はいるところで1グループごとに写真をとっていたのでそれが混雑の原因と思われますがもうちょっとなんとかならないものでしょうか?食事もホテルで出す料理なのでもうちょっとなんとかならないのでしょうか?まずかったです。ショーの内容もシェラトンカイウラニのショーの方がハワイの歴史をたどっていて面白かったです。全体的にいまいちでした。

The food was diverse and delicious, the dancing was powerful, and it was great to see the sunset. My child was thrilled to get a turtle tattoo on their shoulder. I would love to go back the next time I visit.
料理は種類も豊富で美味しく、踊りも迫力があり、サンセットも見れ良かったです。子供は肩に亀の絵をタトゥーしてもらい大喜びでした。次回訪れた時も行きたいと思いました。

Everything was GREAT except for the location.. I was disappointed cuz I booked this with a beach location in mind.. or at least, close proximity or along the beach; which I heard was the case for some time. Instead it was on the rooftop of the parking structure! Anyway, you probably would get more outstanding reviews if you only put the luau back on the beach or the grass area between the Lagoon Tower & Rainbow Tower! That would've made it PERFECT! Food could be better as well! Entertainment was excellent!n Great performers!

Due to the impact of the typhoon from the previous day, I thought, "Will it be canceled?" as I headed to the venue, which was supposed to take place as scheduled. The event was held not outdoors, but in a hotel convention hall. However, they smoothly guided the approximately 500 attendees, and the show started on time. The singing and speaking of the male vocalist, whose voice resonated well, along with the powerful dance performances, were no different from what you would experience outdoors. The food was delicious (I was particularly impressed by the tenderness of the roast beef and went back for seconds!) and you could enjoy two drinks (beer or soft drinks). After the show, I took photos with the dancers and felt great as I stepped outside, only to be met with a downpour that made me wonder if it had been canceled. Of course, it must be amazing outdoors as well, but I had a valuable experience. The reservation process was easy, the food was tasty, and it was fun to be surrounded by lively groups of foreigners.
P.S. There was no fire dance since it was indoors.
前日からの台風の影響で、時折スコールや風があったため「中止かな」と思って会場に行きました。
ところが、予定通り開催するとのこと。
会場は屋外でなく、ホテルのコンベンションホールを使っての実施でした。
しかし、500名はいたであろう観客をスムーズに案内し、ショーは定刻にスタート。
声のよく透る男性歌手の歌と話。そしてダンスパフォーマンスの迫力は、屋外と何ら変わりませんでした。
食事もおいしいし(特にローストビーフの柔らかさに感動!おかわりしちゃいました♪)ドリンク(ビールorソフトドリンク)も2杯飲めるし。
ショーが終わってダンサーたちと写真をとって気持ちよく外にでたら、途中で中止だったかなと思わせるほどの土砂降りでした。
もちろん、屋外でもサイコーなんでしょうけど、貴重な経験をさせてもらえました。
予約も簡単だし、食事もおいしいし、ノリノリの外人グループたちに囲まれて過ごすのも楽しいですよ。
追記:室内だからファイヤーダンスはありませんでした。

We went with 4 couples and had a blast at this luau. The luau grounds is beautiful - the lagoon is such a nice touch and different than other luau's we have been to previous years. The food is excellent - and the entertainment is incredible. Thank you for the perfect ending to our Hawaiian Vacation!

I wish we had gone to the Royal Hawaiian Luau first since we went to another one on our first night in Honolulu and it was nothing compared to this one! The food was excellent! The teriyaki beef was tender, the kalua pork was incredibly flavorful (and they had a whole roasted pig as well!), the mahimahi was some of the best I have ever had and I even tried a bit of the poi (wasn't great, but I had to try it again!). The service was quick and friendly and the drinks were very yummy.
I liked the fact that the show is very engaging and all of the performers just shined on stage. It is a bit pricier than some of the other luaus, but it is definitely worth it!

We have been to 3 other Luau's the food was the best here. We had 11 in our party Parents, Grandparents, and Children. We had all booked seperatly but the staff did place us together and were extremely helpfull and attentive. Last year we went to Paradise cove and for the kids it has a lot more to do. But this was close to our hotel and we all had a good time. It was money and time well spent.
