What is it? The Mai-Kai opened in 1956 and is the longest-running Polynesian revue in the country. Diners from around the world come to transport themselves to the South Seas through cascading waterfalls and tropical gardens, feast on pupu platters and suckling pig, and watch the famous floor show directed and choreographed by native Tahitian Mireille Thornton.
Why we love it: The floorshow changes every year January, so the experience always stays fresh.
Time Out tip: Happy hour at both the Molokai and Bora Bara Bar lasts until 7pm and offers 50 percent off tiki drinks.
