    On our recent stay in Kauai our hotel concierge suggested a local community event nearby. Local Hawaiian performers on Friday nights at Porter Pavilion. It peaked my interest. I purchased three tickets online same day. For $59 it included a buffet. It was a short drive from the Westin. Under 15 minutes. Parking was free. Doors promptly opened at 5:30pm. Gave my name, and was advised the buffet was opened now. The three of us headed straight to the buffet line. The buffet included- * Caesar salad * Mac potato salad * Kalua pork and cabbage * chicken teriyaki * sautéed veggies * sweet dinner roll * white rice * coconut cake No host bar serving alcoholic and non alcoholic drinks. It was open seating. Five round tables of eight. We sat at the elevated bar table facing the stage. Also rows of chairs facing the stage. At 6:30pm the entertainment began. It was a family affair. Dad and his two sons. The dad originally from Tahiti 30 odd years ago. They played and sang Hawaiian favorites and Tahitian influenced music. The Porter Pavilion is a small casual intimate venue. Not a bad seat in the house. It was a nice evening of food and entertainment.

    Amazing. They put on a great show with story telling. The location is huge and welcoming for family and kids. Our boys did mini golf before and was a hit. We adults listened to an artist perform while enjoying a nice mai tai.

    This was a lovely evening. The team was so accommodating and delightful to my (almost) 101 year old mom and she had a great time. Special kudos to Calvin, who treated us right from beginning to end. Food was uncomplicated but tasty.

    We had a fantastic evening with our front-row VIP seats. The entertainment was excellent! Dancing, singing, drums, fire show--a memorable show in all ways. The buffet food was delicious. We're planning a return visit when our son visits in April.

    Absolute respect for these families and their effort to educate on and demonstrate their culture.... Wonderful event... well organized, relaxed, and so entertaining! This was an event that left me inspired and in awe of their skills and talents. The food was delicious, so were the drinks, event was well organized and they performed in the rain! Thank you for sharing with the visiting community and for not cancelling due to rain. We enjoyed thoroughly and will HIGHLY recommend to others. Mahalo!!

    When planning my trip to Kauai, I made a list of all the luau available, then researched each one individually. Having previously experienced a large commercial luau on Maui, I opted for the smaller and more intimate setting of the Ahi Lele Fire Show at the Anaina Hou Community Park. They did not disappoint. The park setting is relaxing, the food is tasty, and the show is fascinating, educational and up-close. The performers are very passionate about presenting their cultural heritage skills in a positive way. For me, an unexpected bonus was the "opener" period of the incredible music made by the talented Keali'i Kaneali'i and his bride. His voice and unique manipulation of the 12-string guitar, accompanied by his lovely spiritual harmonizer, was just blissful. The whole experience was entertaining and is a different approach to the tradition "commercialized" luau's offered by resorts. This show will stay with you in your memories for much longer. Pro tip: upon arrival after turning off the highway, disregard all your turn options and just continue driving straight & down the hill to the end of the pavement, then park. The show is down low at the pavilion, not up high at the big tent.

    It is a not to be missed show. Even more so if you are living in the north shore. Although they depict some small part of the Polynesian culture it shows the talent they have and willing to bring it out to the people. It's family run and so even more interesting. The show builds up and ends with a lot of excitement. Food is very flavorful but served buffet style and bu the caterer. If you have a big appetite then be warned to eat something before or ask for more portions. But if the crowd is not large then you are fine. One star less tor this. It's really half a star but there is no option. The show by itself is wonderful and shows the dexterity of the artists. Not to be missed if you're in the area. It's waaay different than the regular luaus. Also being a small area it's easy to be close to performers. Thr number of Polynesian cultures they bring in to showcase is a huge plus.

    We had an amazing time at the luau and fire show. It was a bit different than i was expecting, but overall an awesome time with talented people! I do wish there were more vegan options and that a drink (non alcoholic) was included in the price.

    Expert fire performer

    The show was amazing at educating folks on the Polynesian culture especially relating to their fire shows. They have great musicians, story telling and food. We got there only 10 min early and got great seats. We brought jackets to save our seats but people used phones purses whatever. You can walk around their outdoor areas while waiting for the show. Seats further in the back were raised so any seat seems like a good seat and the performers were interactive & funny! Respect to the skills of these amazing performers! My whole family loved it ~who doesn't love a a fun fire show? Definitely a highlight of our trip! Mahalo

    SPECTACULAR! I highly recommend this dinner show. The food was great, the show was better and the ambiance and staff was on point. If you are in Kauai and want to enjoy a historical show where you actually learn about the culture then I recommend this show. We paid a little over $300 for two VIP seats and dinner which also included 2 cocktails.

What a fabulous experience! There was only one other couple on the tour, which lasted nearly four hours. Howard and Sally gave us the full story of how they came to be chocolate farmers, took us on the tour of the property, we picked our own ripe pods, then opened them to taste the matrix. They then took us into the building where the chocolate is made, showing us the step-by-step process. Both are great communicators, with a gentle mannerism and easy humor. The final part of the tour included a tasting, with the option to buy some of the chocolate, the amazing brownies that Sally makes, homemade vanilla and also the local honey. We both left very inspired by Howard and Sally's story and dedication. If you are inclined to take a chocolate farm tour, HouLau is highly recommended for a personalized and memorable tour.

They gave us more than a chocolate tour by giving us their interesting family history and how they learned to make chocolate.

The farm tour- at least with the guide we had- was a wander through a small organic garden with a guide describing some plants that might be exotic if you're from the mainland- it's pleasant and interesting. There's no serious description of agriculture on Hawaii or why Hawaii has to import food or what might be done about it. There was no asking for questions, and a maybe 30% disinformation content. I'd suggest the owners list on the menu for the day where each item comes from- clearly that's what their clientele is interested in? Some of this might have been covered in the 4 minute meet with the chef, but I didn't retain it. It would be fun to know what all the ingredients are. Any last minute unforeseen swaps could then be discussed before the meal, since the visitors are interested in sustainable Ag we'd be interested in its unpredictability too.
