Mauka Warriors Luau is proudly locally owned and operated by members of the Polynesian community and the US military. Join us for an evening of tradition, entertainment, and community, creating unforgettable memories while honoring the rich heritage of the islands. During the experience, a pig is unveiled from the IMU oven; guests stand around the large hole in the ground, and unlike other luaus, there were no raised bench seating areas . The food is delicious! The ube sweet potatoes and grilled pineapple paired perfectly with the pork, complementing all the meats wonderfully.
As for the show, they have a comedic host who is fantastic! “Cousin” shows you how to use every part of the pineapple tree, engaging the audience in a fun and informative way without being cheesy All the hula performances are about the Warriors of each island, featuring lots of fast and strong movements. The craziest part was the fire show, primarily performed by boys aged 12 to 14. They were truly awesome!
