They didn’t call you Chief for nothing

Reviewed by: Midweek , 2022/06/21

This is not your regular Luau event that you go to. My husband and I were celebrating our 5th year wedding anniversary and it’s his first trip after 35 years. I was surprised to know that I was not only watching or going to a luau but also going to a comedy show. Chief was amazingly great! His delivery was superb and did not seem rehearsed but was very natural. The staff (i feel bad that I didn’t get his name :( but he was great) took care of a mishap that happened and was very professional. Everyone was so great and I will definitely go back and tell my friends to make sure to see Chiefs Luau.

Wonderful family entertainment.

Reviewed by: Vickers & Family, 2022/06/16

We have been to others, but this one was the best ever! It was unforgettable
Nonstop entertainment with lots of variety, engaging the audience as well.
The basket weaving, coconut and fire demonstrations were great. Such a variety of food, drink and hula dancing, war dances, and lest anyone could forget, the fire dances ! We loved it!

Great experience with the family

Reviewed by: Christine , 2022/06/15

Such a nice time with the kids. They enjoyed the dancers the most and they really had skilled and amazing dancers. The Chief is entertaining and kind and just joyful. I enjoyed him hosting. The food is also very good and the kids tried everything. I think they did so well with the buses and the set up and the service. Its memorable. It’s a very large gathering and I’m amazed at how well they handled so many people.

Great experience and definitely worth the money.

Reviewed by: Theo, 2022/06/07

There were quite a few Luau options to choose from. After some searching, we decided to give Chief's Luau a try. It's good that they have pickup options and we don't have to drive. The pickup, drop-off, and check-in were smooth.
It was a cloudy evening with some sprinkles, but we were prepared.
Food was all-you-can-eat style, with them serving you at the station. Food varieties was limited compared with Polynesian Culture Center, but the quality was good. They even gave us 2 drink tickets for each person. That's enough for the night.
The dancing and the fire knife show were very entertaining, and the jokes too.
All in all, a pleasant evening spent on the island of Oahu.

Awesome show

Reviewed by: Jan, 2022/05/23

This Luau was an awesome experience. The best part of the show was learning some insight on the culture and watching all of the amazing dances and fire show. The chief was super funny and entertaining! The food was good but the portions are huge so make sure you come with a big appetite! every Luau experience we tried getting into was fully booked out for a couple of months and I had purchased this showing same day which was a plus for us!

Oh my squash! It was amazing!

Reviewed by: Llwdavis , 2022/05/18

We had Chief’s recommended to us by friends. Oh my squash! It was the best. Presented as very authentic. Food was actually very good. Great tour host, Cousin Tao and great driver. The show was everything but hookie! Authentic and impressive is how each dancer and performers presented. Well worth the royal package to sit so close to front and have a driver. Much respect Chief and team !

Amazing luau!

Reviewed by: Jasmine, 2022/05/17

He made the crowd feel very included and had us laughing the whole time. The food was great, the scenery was beautiful. The fire show was unreal. I feel like the royal package was so worth it. The maitais were amazing and we even got drinks in pineapples. The photos came out beautiful and we even got leis and handmade headbands. So worth every penny!

Great time! The luau was fantastic. Highly recommend. The “goodies” you get were great too. The food was ok but you’re not there for the food! But the food was fine. I enjoyed it. But the actual luau was fantastic. Well worth It!! A definite must see!!

Reviewed by: Kathleen Vera, 2022/05/03

This was so worth the money! The show itself was worth the ticket. Food was great too. Having a taste of everything was good so you know what you like and don't. I sprung for the pick up and drop off which was great so I didn't have to worry about being just a teenie tiny bit tipsy. :) The dancers were fantastic and it was obvious everyone was enjoying themselves. Would definitely go back.

Great Show and Dinner!

Reviewed by: Andrew C., 2022/04/05

We purchased the Royal package and it was worth the extra $. We were the first to go up to dinner and front row seating.

The show was funny and entertaining! The Chief put in a lot of funny jokes and taught the audience some Hawaiian words and phrases. Food was great, with roasted pork as the centerpiece with lots of authentic-tasting foods.

Would definitely do it again!

Reviewed by: Ruth Jacques , 2022/04/02

My last night in Hawaii was with Chief’s luau. The food was great, the performers was breathtaking and the whole evening was delicious. I’ll never forget how welcomed I felt with that lei made with real flowers. I kept it . It simply a must do . It was my birthday and they sang happy birthday to me. I could go on an on. Great party.

  • I’m keeping that lei for ever

I actually laughed out loud several times as the Chief entertained. Also, Cousin Lisa and Cousin Ben were fantastic on the bus. Good life advice and great senses of humor. And Cousin Ben played the ukulele unbelievably well!

FIRST TIME IN HAWAII

Reviewed by: Josephine Carrera, 2022/02/16

I really enjoyed this amazing Luau, my first time here and the the workers that served the food and drinks, made the Aloha in Hawaii so meaningful, The bus driver and the girl that were in bus#2, were also great, they brought the Ohana out in everyone, Mahalo to the Chief and all the dancers in the show without each of you it wouldn’t have worked out , I want to say Mahalo Hawaii, for such a blessed vacay, and to anyone that reads this, believe me best show ever, money well spent.
