Good buffet experiences fill up fast in Honolulu, and the best fill first. These 4 are the ones to beat, with current prices and what sets each one apart, so you can book before the calendar closes.
Pier 8 sunset cruise with Pacific Rim buffet, roast beef carving, signature Mai Tai, and Polynesian show on Honolulu waters.
“This was a fantastic cruise. The meal was delicious and the server Riley was very helpful and friendly Highly recommend this cruise 🚢”
Waikiki’s Rock-A-Hula at the Royal Hawaiian Theater: hula, Tahitian, fire-knife, plus an optional Hawaiian buffet with vegan choices.
“If you’re looking for something traditional that will highlight the culture and tradition of hula, this is not it. This is more of a pop/rock and roll show that mainly focuses on Elvis. Respectfully, I found the show to be below subpar and we left halfway into the show. I couldn’t sit there and watch it any longer.”
Waikiki luau dinner with Maui Gold pineapple, Mai Tai, and a Hawaiian buffet plus optional Rock-A-Hula show with fire-knife dancing.
“Il be very honest.. the show its self was great! i actually loved it! Elvis and MJ where fantastic, the Island music was beautiful as well. the food isnt worth the money, you only get one plate of food that you need to wait almost a hour to go yet, then they shove dessert down your throat and then u wait another 30 min for ppl to sit for the show... i would pay to c the show.. still over priced for a show thats just over a hour.. but not the buffet”
Snorkel with O‘ahu turtles, spot spinner dolphins and whales, then enjoy a luau-style buffet with drinks on a 62' catamaran.
“A beautiful day and very well organized. Great atmosphere and a very friendly crew. We saw dolphins during the trip, and the snorkeling outing was well managed, with good equipment. We didn't see many fish that day, but it was enjoyable (we were at a moderate depth and the water was quite clear). Bring seasickness medication just in case for those who don't have a steady sea leg (which I did and everything was fine). Very good meal, unlimited drinks. Very nice memory.”
