5.00Fun show with great food. The fire dancer was our family favorite but all the dancers were amazing. Upon arrival we received a beautiful flower lei. A demonstration of how they cook over wood fire. Then the food. It was so tasty and they kept offering my husband more because he kept eating all of it.
Very entertaining

5.00This was my first Luau, recommended by a friend. I’m glad I chose this one. It was very entertaining. It was a smaller Luau which I liked. Everything from the food, the entertainers and the MC were A+!!!

BEST Luau Hands Down - and Locally Owned

5.00We attended the Toa Luau as a family—my mother, my four-year-old daughter, and me—and it was truly one of the most memorable experiences of our trip. From the moment we arrived, everything—from the warm atmosphere to the delicious food, hands-on activities, and captivating entertainment—was incredible. I highly recommend arriving a little early to fully enjoy the cultural demonstrations. My daughter loved the games and crafts, and it set the tone for a night that felt more like a joyful family celebration than a tourist attraction. Dinner was a highlight in itself—abundant, beautifully prepared, and absolutely delicious. We had requested vegetarian meals when booking, and they exceeded our expectations. I loved the flavors so much, I’ve already been inspired to recreate parts of the meal at home! The show was fantastic: interactive, powerful, and filled with heart. The entire staff went out of their way to make everyone feel like ohana (family), and the smaller, more intimate setting made the whole experience feel extra special. After visiting several large, crowded attractions, the peaceful, welcoming vibe at Toa Luau was a breath of fresh air. I always try to support locally owned businesses when we travel, so when I learned Toa Luau was authentically Polynesian and family-run, I knew it was the right choice—but they still managed to exceed every expectation. Thank you for an unforgettable evening that touched three generations of my family. My daughter is still trying to perform the dances days later! Mahalo, cousins—we’ll treasure this night forever!

5.00Watched and learned about a variety of Polynesian dances. Very friendly and personable staff. The performers actually serve the dinner and come to the tables to speak with you. Lots of food and seconds offered. Would recommend and in particular because of the beautiful setting in the botanical gardens so you can make it a full day.
