Ohana's or New Spirit of Aloha Dinner

[jenanderson]

I am so excited to be planning for our trip in April. We have decided to add the silver package onto our package which means we are making a lot of choices as to where we will be eating each day. With so many selections, I am getting confused as to what we should be choosing!

I will be traveling with DH, DS (age 2) and DD (birthday - turning 7!).

We are planning on going to the Hoop-Dee-Doo one night for a dinner show. At this point we also have a PS for the New Spirit of Aloha Dinner show. However, I have read a lot about Ohana's and think that sounds good as well (good food, kids games, etc.). I am also concerned about DS and DD sitting through the show because I could only get a PS for the 8:00 pm show.

I would love to hear anyone's thoughts on this. I have found so much helpful information on this site that I will thank you all ahead of time!

Hiya.

We just came back from the World on Sunday. We saw the Spirit of Aloha show on Friday night at the 5:15p showing.

I would recommend going to O'Hanas instead of the Luau. The show was nice for Adults and Older children but I think the little one will be bored.

As a matter of fact I watched a lot of bored little ones, running around causing havoc during our seating in between the show sections. The manager had to come over and politely ask the parents to collect their children and not allow them on the stage at least 3 times.

Enjoy your trip!!

Another vote for 'Ohana!!! While I am interested in trying the Luau at some point, I think that 'Ohana is the best meal I've had on property. That being said, you need to be a meat eater, but it is sooooooooo good! And it's all you can eat!

Another vote for Ohana!

We've only tried their CB, but DS who was 1 had lots of interaction with the characters. Chip even fed my son some eggs! It was so cute! They also do a little parade around the room for the kids to a Disney song. It's a very interactive restaurant for kids (breakfast, anyway). I've seen their menu for lunch/dinner, and it looks pretty good. I hope to try it for dinner in June when we go. If the food is as good as it is for breakfast I know we'll enjoy it.

I too would vote for Ohana's. I think it is a better value, especially if you have kids.
