Luau food question.

[plutojudy]

We really enjoy the food at the Luau. Since we have been to it twice in less than a year, we don't want to see it again. Is there any place in the Polynesian that serves the same food?

Sorry, I can't answer your question as I've never been. But I would like to hear about the Luau. We are considering going this year and weren't sure if it was worth the $. Any info would be great!

Thanks!

Dischick -- We went a year ago to the Luau and really enjoyed it. We had a group of ten with our own table. We had ages from 7 to 70 and all had a good time. We liked the food -- good coconut bread, salad, rice and ribs. We didn't like the dessert, an overly sweet mousse volcano thing. Alot of people complain about the show, but we enjoyed it. Great dancing by really talented performers. I recommend the late show -- the fire twirling is really spectacular in the dark. We think it's a great bargain, too, at around $50 for adults and $25 for kids.
