High cost relative to the experience, with some guests feeling the price is not fully justified by the food quality or entertainment.

Mixed food quality: While some dishes like Kalua pork are praised, others such as poached lobster and swordfish have been criticized for texture and taste issues.

Show quality and size: The performance is considered average by some, with a small number of dancers and less impressive choreography compared to other luaus.

Seating issues: Premium seating may not guarantee a good view, with some guests reporting obstructed views and feeling they overpaid.

Unfulfilled promises: For example, a promised post-show beach fireworks event did not occur, leading to disappointment.

Fruit plates during pre-show can disappear quickly, so guests need to eat them promptly or risk missing out.
