There is a tremendous variety of night life in Hawaii, although the typical night club is in the minority. At most night clubs you can see a good hula and many places feature Tahitian and Samoan entertainment. There are church of all denominations.
Top hotels all have several dining rooms and serve excellent food. One of the best known and most popular restaurants is Lau Yee Chai in Waikiki. Its outdoor dance floor has a vertical rock garden and waterfall. The food is superb. There are a number of picturesque Japanese tea houses. Reservations should be made in advance.
The Tropics, the Broiler, the Tahitian Lanai and the Colonel’s Plantation, Beef Steak and Coffee House are popular. Be sure to attend a Hawaiian luau, a combination of the best native dishes and Polynesian entertainment. Some of the places which feature these are Don the Beachcomber’s and Queen’s surf and the Hawaiian Village. Luaus are by reservation only.
