Alii Luau -- the entire Polynesian Cultural Center experience is the best of the best!! It's a can't miss dinner & show, every time I visit Hawaii!!!

Old Lahaina Luau best overall anywhere in the islands. Excellent food and the location is tops! Everything about this authentic Hawaiian experience is first rate. Whenever I have friends visit from the mainland, that is the one place I always make sure to share with them.

#1-Ali'i Luau at PCC. Good food, reasonable prices, great entertainment. An added plus is that you also get to go to the night show after enjoying all that ono food! #2-Old Lahaina. Excellent show & food and good portrayal of the Hawaiian culture. Place to go whenever I'm in Lahaina.
