1.00I have attended much better Luau dinners in Maui. I was expecting a similar experience however this one did not meet even half of my expectation. Dinner was not good at all. The quality of food was poor. I expected for the price of $250 per person to at least have better quality food. We paid $1300 in total. The show was okay however was much shorter than the one I attended before. They did not announce there were desserts. We figured it out by ourselves. Dessert was not good either. I wish I could get my money back however I know they won’t refund me even if I asked. I could spend that money to do better things and get much better quality food else where.
