| - Every first Friday of the month Moki's has an amazing Hawaiian spread of various salads, meats, starches, and dessert. All for $12! The buffet is from 6-8 P.M. and if you sit outside they will give you a taste of their traditional Polynesian dance shows + fire spinning they offer for private events/parties. The buffet itself is also an example of what their catering services can provide for any event.
The buffet was well laid-out and consisted of all three salads on the menu (Spinach, mac, and Hawaiian), white and brown rice, katsu chicken, teriyaki chicken, kalbi short rib, kalua pork, chop suey/garlicky rice noodles, tropical fruit (Fresh mango, pineapple, and papaya) and grandma macadamia chocolate cake. Quite a lot to choose from! My favorites of the buffet were the katsu chicken and the kalua pork. Other foods such as the kalbi, had great bbq'd flavor but were a little chewy for me.
The show was spectacular as we watched the talented dancers perform some traditional Polynesian numbers, with the amazing MC showing off his fire eating and fire spinning skills. Although it was freezing outside the dancers performed with ease and grace, and the fire spinning provided some welcome temporary warmth. :)
I was definitely stuffed after 2 rounds of buffet plus the cake and the show was a unique aspect of the dinner which was much appreciated, especially since it was essentially a free performance included with our dinner. Overall everyone had a great time and we'll be back for more buffet and regular Hawaiian foods from Moki's!
