Review of Paradise Cove Luau

WOW...what a horrible Luau! Complete rip off paid...

WOW...what a horrible Luau! Complete rip off paid $500 for a family of 4 (kids have to pay adult prices, even though ages are 4 and 5yrs old). Welcoming Mai Tai was watered down juice and water. Rude staff refused to take pictures with our camera only theirs for picture resell they stated they "couldn't touch other camera". Moved along like Cattle (over 1000 people) to our horrible seats and very crowded table (no elbow room at all). Was told to arrive by 5pm, but show didn't start until over 8pm. Stood around to see pointless games and activities which if you decided to participate it took literally 45mins in line. But the WORST was the food. They served tasteless fried chicken (thighs only) the only thing you tasted was the grease, horrible fishy fish, tri-color pasta salad, macoroni salad, ice berg salad with watery ranch dressing. I didn't taste the pulled pork, but it look pretty nasty. Well long story short, I had food poisoning that night and spent 2 days in the toilet. We ended up leaving before the show started because we got tired of waiting around. NOT WORTH IT AT ALL, save the money and go to the Polynesian Cultural Center.
