Hukilau Marketplace

Touristy gift shops, including a ukulele store & museum. I was so excited to see a fruit stand because I wanted to try a coconut drink but they were unfortunately out. We originally went to this marketplace because I was under the impression it would really be decorated and they would have holiday themed stuff, but I didn't think they did anything that was described on Oahu's calendar site: "It will be a weekend full of holiday festivities and wonderful displays of lights and decorations."Did not buy any tickets for the Polynesian Center so I can't comment on that, but this is still a good place to stop if you are looking for a souvenir, food or restroom break.

Lovely outdoor area with several great food options and souvenir shops! It is especially cute at night with all the string lights and tiki torches. The staff is also very nice and helpful. Will come again!

This is a nice marketplace. I went here and was satisfied with my experience. This marketplace adjoins the Polynesian Cultural Center, so vendors here cater to tourists. There are multiple food trucks, such as a crepe truck, kiwi style fish and chips truck, BBQ truck, sushi truck, and burger truck. There’s a large open air building with vendors selling arts and crafts, and there’s a stand to get temporary tattoos. I gave this marketplace five stars because it has nice vendors and good food trucks. I had fish and chips from the Kiwi style fish and chips truck that were exquisite.

Located adjacent to the Polynesian Cultural Center grounds on the northeast side. A good place to shop & eat and just walk around. The marketplace is well run, clean & presentable. Shops, vendors, food trucks and the Pounders Restaurant are strategically set up to make the customers visit enjoyable. Even if it rains, people can easily find shelter. Souvenir and food prices are reasonable and comparable to other marketplaces on the island. Staff at each establishment provide excellent customer service. We visited several times and enjoyed each visit.

It's right next door to the Polynesian cultural center and they had cute shops and places to grab a bite to eat. I bought my chicken there. I just love the Hawaiian chickens. They give the island a lot more character and they're so colorful.

Nice variety of food from sit down restaurants to food trucks. Live music. Theme decor is well done. Spacious for wandering and watching the show. Lots of great shops as well.

Adjacent and on the left side of Polynesian Cultural Center. There are plenty of parking spaces for cars, especially few "working" EV charging stations from ChargePoint. It has souvenir shops, restaurants, snacks, drinks for visitors to hang around. There are restrooms. It is a good place for a quick stop during a trip to North Shore.

Had so many fun souvenirs and it was such a great atmosphere. I wish we could go back to spend some more time there, but we are on the wrong side of the island. It is a wonderful companion to the Polynesian Cultural Center. There was just so much to do here, it was hard to fit everything in.

Little tourist shopping place for food trucks, souvenirs and trinkets, at the entrance for the Polynesian Cultural center.Great place for shave ice, specialty sodas, malasadas, tacos, poke, and many others. Live music is great at night, and it’s a great place to grab some food and dessert for a date night.

Lots of options to but here. There are souvenirs galore. Also there are several different shops to choose from.If you are hungry, there are plenty of options. They range from a food truck that serves hot dogs in some crazy ways to a restaurant called Rounders that has a bakery in it. But the real gem is getting the buffet that they have there after 1630 (4:30 pm). There is so much variety at the buffet that you won't be able to eat it all.

A nice little marketplace that is just outside the entrance of the Polynesian Cultural Center. There is a good variety of food from trucks, stalls, and restaurants as well as some nice shops. It's definitely worth spending some time exploring here while visiting the cultural center.

Seemed very tourist trappy with a bunch of cheap tchotchkes, which is unfortunate because the Polynesian Cultural Center was so impressive authentic and down to earth. We ate dinner at Pounders. The food was ok, but the service was SO slow. Dinner took almost two hours and the restaurant was less than half full. Other than that, it was a great day and the Ha, breath of life show was amazing

I came here for the Polynesian Cultural Center as which I think most people do. But this is a nice market. Different shops and food places to choose from. But I definitely recommend you get tickets to check out the Polynesian Cultural Center it's an all-day event!

Well damn. So years ago, I wanted to try this place out, but never got around to is as I live in Waianae. When I finally did, it turns out chef Graham was coming in and redoing the restaurant, which means all the items I finally wanted to try that day just so happened to be the items he took out. Fast forward to now and I got to try the corn chowder in a taro bowl that they used to have before Graham took it away and now brought back. Omg so delicious and worth it and can’t believe they took it away but glad it’s back (for now at least). Usually I only come for the mango pizza but today the corn chowder was the star and the pizza super disappointed. Barely any cheese. Just thin bread and tiny sprinkles of cheese. Incredibly disappointed with the pizza but so glad I finally got the corn chowder.

This little market is right before the cultural Center. You can get food and drinks before heading inside if you have the basic ticket which doesn’t include food. Everything is outdoor so be prepared (sunscreen and light clothes)

Awesome show ever attended. No words to say thank you to all artist. It was perfectly performed in front of live audience. Story live from finish to end is so clear with music and lights.

Great area with all affordable stuff you can find. I loved the fruits they sell, healthy and fresh. Entertaining environment and friendly. You enjoy the good walk around the stalls of Merchants.

Cool spot to stop and get food or malasadas off of the trucks. The shopping is your normal tourist stuff, and the bathroom is super clean at this locations.

This is a great place for people to experience the life of native Hawaiian races. They organize well routine for the shows of each race sothat customer can view one by one. The native Hawaiian here are friendly and joyful. Their show is attractive and interactive. The audiences are laughing all the time. What I like here is that they are very polite and did not ask for money or tip after the show.The food-court here is also very large. It can serve up to 1000 people at once. You can try some native food. They are tasty and delicous too. I really enjoyed the day here

Located at Polynesian cultural center surrounding nded by beautiful scenery with mountain as backdrop. Open eveyday. You will find foods from every aspect of Hawaii. They have open food court, bakery, sitting down restaurant, art center, wood carving and theater. There are busses from downtown Waikiki. You definitely you want to come here early and stay the whole day.
