Feast At Lele (The)

Feast at Lele is a beautiful luau, well organized and most importantly…small! They limit the number of guests to 150, there can be as many as 400 at other luaus. Parking is right across the street with a small fee. Service was excellent, the greeters who checked us in were friendly and the servers were knowledgeable, fun and very accommodating. The food is served family style, is authentic and represents several different islands. It is an open bar with a server dedicated to each table just for beverages so there is no waiting, the Mai Tais were fabulous! The entertainment goes on throughout the dinner with several intermission breaks. We took lots of pictures, especially of the beautiful fire dance. The luau is right on the beach surrounded by lush vegetation, we watched an amazing sunset as we ate and were entertained…it doesn't get any better than that!

We were very excited for our first Hawaiian Luau - and although the entertainment (the show and the band) were nice and the atmosphere was beautiful, the food was the most horrible food we experienced on both the island of Maui and the island of Oahu during our 10 day trip. The service was attentive, but yet the food just could not cut it. We never asked for a 2nd serving of any of the food and make a quick stop at a fast food rest. on our way back to the hotel. It was very disappointing for the cost per person that they charge. My son (8 yrs old) was not thrilled with the choice of food selection and they did not offer nor did they have a child's menu when I asked the servers at the luau (but they advertise differently). Luckily this is the ONLY bad meal we had during our stay. Additional comment – they should warn you that during the heavy tourist months to allow at least 1 hour for travel time is you are coming from the opposite side of the island…..the traffic getting there was awful.

Excellent food (many courses), includes drinks, outstanding show (we lucked out and got a table front and center). Our first luau so we don't have anything to compare it to, but we really enjoyed it. More of an adult atmosphere.
