Very good
Excellent night. Food was good. Activities were interesting. Entertainment after supper was awesome. Especially the fire show.
After searching the internet for a few different places to go to a luau. We decided to own this one. And I am glad we did. I love the authenticity and especially the fact that it features dances and costumes from the many different Polynesian cultures that have inhabited the Hawaiian Islands over the centuries. It is truly a melting pot of cultures.
This was amazing! An amazing experience. It was fun and beautiful and super entertaining. LOVED !!! This is a must see. Best one yet!
Great show! The main host was funny and engaging. The kids fire dancing was amazing! And most of all, the food was delicious and the cultural activities were fun. I would recommend this luau!
I cannot express enough the warmth hospitality, the love and laughs that was provided at this very beautifully put together luau. Food was amazing the warriors were spectacular it definitely made us feel immersed in the culture! I would definitely recommend this place to everyone I know and hope to be back soon to see these wonderful people. Mahalo!!!>
Review
This was my first luau and I was very impressed. They had a bunch of activities to do before dinner and the show was awesome. I loved that they represented so many islands in the performance. It started raining in the middle of it and they gave us ponchos. It was worth the money we paid and items for sale there were not overpriced. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants to experience an amazing luau and not feel like it’s a tourist attraction.

I've been to a lot of luaus and the Mauka Warriors is at the top. It's very professional. The activities are fun to do. The food is excellent and the dancers superb. The show's story and theme of the luau is powerful. I highly recommend Mauka Warriors!
The show was amazing. The pork was delicious. Sorry didn't take pictures. The who was too mesmerizing

I have been to 3 luaus and this was by far the best. It had the best dancing and fire celebration and the food was fresh from veggies to salads and properly cooked meat. Well organized. Glad we took the transportation package as the traffic was dreadful and took ages. Very nice facility.

For a 2nd day soft opening at their new location, they did a seamless, fantastic show and very tasty food. The various Island dances (Hula) was fun to watch and audience participation made it more entertaining. The various demonstration around the perimeter was informative and fun to watch. I’d recommend this Lua to everyone including locals and visitors.
Absolutely amazing luau! It was nonstop entertainment! So many activities before the dinner and show. The food was delicious too. This is a must see.

We had a really great time! The service was wonderful and the food was good. We did wish the stage was a tad higher so it could be seen from the middle and back section a little better. I loved how they included their whole family! Great fire dancing!!
Ample parking, Check in process was an ease, lots of pre-show activities, delicious buffet style food, friendly and helpful staff, and best show on the island !!!
WHY WE WENT HERE: - can't go to Hawaii without experiencing a luau CUSTOMER SERVICE/OVERALL EXPERIENCE: - located off Kunia Rd south of Ko Hana Distillers - when we arrived onsite, the parking lot is gravel (be mindful of the shoes you wear); majority of the patrons arrived via bus (I believe from their respective resorts in Waikiki);...
Ok, I know this isn't technically a restaurant.....but they did have a lot of food so think I can count it as a new place we tried.
We booked this luau because of the great reviews. We also paid the additional fee to get picked up from our hotel. The original date we booked was postponed because of the rain. I called and they upgraded our tickets and booked us for a show a couple of days later. We changed our original plans in order to attend the luau. No bog deal. We understand things happen. We were excited about the luau!

First timers here! Amazing, engaging, delicious food. This Luau felt so family oriented. My 6 year old was jamming to everything, even participated. So welcoming, it’s like going to a family party.
We had the best experience! Loved that history was shared of each island along with the dances. All of the before activities, pictures and food were amazing! Mahalo!.
Our first time to witness “LUAU”with my husband is a good Learning experience for the Polynesian culture through dance reenactment and stories with Aloha vibes .Staffs were very warmth and accomodating,there’s a lot of different activities inside ,you will not get bored for the 3 hour stay, location was excellent with the beautiful nature real backdrop for photos.We are so lucky for the Perfect weather last night for the show under the full moon...
My family of 13 really enjoyed this. Everyone said it was the best luau they'd ever been to. The food was excellent and they made sure to go over my allergies when I asked about it. Great time!
