Haleiwa Shave Ice

Service was great and atmosphere was awesome but it was not what I was expecting for shave ice. It was basically like a snowcone which was not what I wanted. Find a better shave Ice place because this is not it. I was hoping for real fruit flavors and got none of that.

I don’t write reviews but had to for this. Save your time and money. This place is the worst shave ice in Haleiwa. Go to any of the others instead. Service =trash, food=trash, and atmosphere =trash. One hour wait for an overpriced shave ice that had no flavor.

It was our first time to the North Shore and we wanted to stop for Shave Ice. We had the best experience, great customer service and the Shave Ice was amazing. We wanted the works so my whole family ordered the Pineapple Express. It was so creamy and delicious which also included coconut jelly. We’ll definitely be back for more the next we’re in Hawaii.

BEWARE - your vehicle will be towed from this business' parking lot without warning if you are not right beside it in their lot, regardless of if you bought from this shop or the one next door. There are spotters watching for vehicles that are "unaccompanied" so they can tow it 10 miles away to Wahiawa and charge you $185 to recover it. My vehicle was towed despite being a paying customer just 10 minutes prior, because I was not "visible" to them. The signage simply states that parking is for customers of this shop and San Lorenzo Bikinis only, with no time limit or fair warning provided. The least that the shops could do is warn you about this, unless they are in on this scam themselves. Within minutes your vehicle will be towed. It is extremely predatory. NOT worth it, stay away.

I understand that shave ice is a requisite dessert to have on the north shore, and this is my stop every time I make this drive. I do not know what coconut jelly is. It looks like little translucent maggots. Don't be scared. It's heavenly!!!! Very messy, very sticky, very mouthwatering and refreshing, this over the top mess is worth the drive!

Really getting tired of disappointing my Sweety by trying to take her here for her favorite shave ice place of all time only to find a "I'm gone for a while and have no idea when I will return" sign on the door. This has happened far too many times and I am tired of sitting in the sun for 15-30 minutes waiting for someone to return. After 20 years of making this our exclusive provider of shave ice, we are done. Too bad, really. After the parking lot FINALLY got fixed we were always looking forward to coming back and supporting this little local business.

Mahalo iā 'oe !! Shaved ice is dope!! My first time and a must try when visiting Hawaii as it seems to be a local delicacy, I was totally impressed and tastes so much yummier than perceived and looks. We did a Build Your own, great flavors and topping options, this surf town joint is awesome, laid back no fuss, super chill and the staff are killer friendly. A super yummy refreshing treat to cool you down and enjoy with ya'll amigos in the sunshine whilst in beautiful Hawaii. I'm stoked that I saved my first Shaved Ice experience for this place, it was phenomenal. I wish they would provide the Ice's in compostable packaging or plates like other joints, there is a lot of single use plastic which is super bad for the environment. My friend also got a rushed one at first, but I politely showed the staff and they were more than generous to make a new one which tasted totally different and easily redeemed the experience. Support local businesses!

Always the friendliest service when we go there, today was a bit busier than usual but Maria was super nice and gave us a heads up about the wait and about the parking lot. Worth the trip from town every time!! Mahalo 🤙🤙🤙
