What to Expect

As the sun begins to set over Honolulu Harbor, guests gather on the open-air, waterfront lawn of Aloha Tower, an iconic setting that sets the stage for an evening deeply rooted in Hawaiian and Polynesian culture. The lush, oceanfront venue offers sweeping views of the harbor, where the fading light reflects off the water and the sounds of traditional music begin to fill the air.

Before the main event begins, you’re invited to take part in a variety of hands-on cultural activities led by local practitioners. Learn how to weave a coconut headband, string your own flower lei, or take a beginner hula or ukulele lesson. These pre-show moments aren’t just for photos, they offer an authentic connection to the traditions that have been passed down through generations.

While the cultural stations are underway, the bar and appetizer stations open with a selection of pūpū (small plates) to enjoy at your leisure. It’s a relaxed atmosphere where guests can mingle, sip tropical cocktails, and soak in the island vibes before dinner is served.

The buffet is a highlight of the evening, locally sourced and thoughtfully prepared with both traditional and modern Hawaiian dishes. Expect to see classics like kalua pig, poi, lomi salmon, fresh island fish, and seasonal vegetables—all served in a farm-to-table style that reflects the deep connection between Hawaii’s food and its land.

After dinner, the lights dim and the main performance begins. The award-winning show takes you on a journey through Polynesia, featuring captivating hula, Tahitian drumming, Maori haka, and graceful storytelling through dance. Each act brings the islands’ history and heritage to life with vibrant costumes, live music, and immersive choreography.

The night culminates in a thrilling fire knife finale, where expert performers spin and dance with flaming blades in a dramatic, heart-pounding display. Throughout the show, don’t be surprised if you’re invited to join in—audience participation is part of the fun, and makes the night all the more memorable.

Buffet Dinner Menu

Smoked Kalua Pork - This is a savory traditional Hawaiian dish. The Imu (in-ground oven) cooked pork meat falls off the bone, and is typically very tender and moist, with a slightly salty, smoky flavor that is just delicious.

Shoyu Chicken - A local cuisine with Japanese roots. Succulent chicken pieces are simmered in a savory concoction of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and other secret island spices until tender and falling off the bone.

Mac Nut Mahi Mahi Fish - If you want to try seafood in Hawaii, it’s hard to find better fish to enjoy than locally caught Mahi Mahi. We serve ours with a macadamia nut crème sauce

Crisp Vegetable Stirfry - For all the Vege lover's out there, we make this special for you. And we keep it crispy so there is a snap to your bite.

Lomi Lomi Salmon - A cold side dish in Hawaiian cuisine, it is a fresh tomato and salmon salad, prepared by mixing raw salted, diced salmon with tomatoes, sweet gentle Maui onions, green onion, and occasional flakes of red chili pepper.

Traditional Poi - Poi is the staple of the traditional Hawaiian diet. It is made from the corm of the taro plant by mashing the cooked taro until it is smooth. It is of purple color and slightly sweet.

Local Salad & Taro Rolls - A medley of Local Greens served with mandarin oranges, radish sprouts crisp rice noodles & Asian dressing

Steamed Rice - What can we say, it’s fresh, hot, steamed rice! Doesn’t have much flavor on it’s own... but it makes the Kalua Pork taste REALLY good!

Ube Cheesecake Dessert - a Filipino-inspired dessert that harmoniously blends the rich creaminess of classic cheesecake with the vibrant, purple-hued sweetness of ube, a tropical yam.
