Perfect for a quick refreshing sweet treat! We came here after seeing the line at Ululani and don't regret it. I like that there was customization options, and honestly if it were up to me I would've gotten an entirely different shaved ice LOL but you can't please everyone, so this was still yummy overall We also had their dole whip soft serve on the side, reminded me of the Disneyland one! But their vanilla is definitely the better option as it helps balance the sweet/tartness of the shaved ice

Located amongst the Lunch Trucks on Kihei road, Da Sweet Spot offers some amazing cold sweets that will hit the spot on a hot Maui day. Besides shaved iced, they also have pineapple Dole whip...

It's a must to have shave ice when in Hawaii. It's almost iconic! Like at Da Sweet Spot it can't be missed for its cool and refreshing shave ice. The Sunset was good with lots of toppings like strawberries, popping boba, and mochi. Its strawberry and mango flavors with a pineapple ice cream base was awesome! A fun and creative way to enjoy a shave ice is by choosing the base (ice cream), two flavors, and two toppings! Just love shave ice!

Delicious shave ice, HUGE portions. We tried the Rainbow, Passion and Ocean. They were all very flavorful and sweet, next time we will definitely share instead of getting our own.

Da Sweet Spot by Bling Bing is that perfect quick stop when you want something refreshing but still a little extra, perfect on hot day after lunch. Went with the "Sunset" a vanilla soft serve base topped with strawberry and mango syrup, topped with fresh strawberries, and popping boba--and it just hit. The soft serve was super creamy, not overly sweet, and the combo of strawberry + mango gave it that bright, tropical flavor. The popping boba added a fun burst in every bite and made the whole thing feel a little elevated. Simple, fresh, and done right. Definitely a go-to dessert spot when you're in the area. 5/5

If you're craving something cool, sweet, and a little different from your usual shave ice, Da Sweet Spot (formerly Bling Bing Maui) is a must-visit! Originally opened as a small food truck in 2022, they've since expanded into their current, more permanent setup "Da Sweet Spot" at South Maui Gardens in 2024, surrounded by a great mix of other local food trucks and eateries. They specialize in bao bing, a Taiwanese-style shave ice made from delicate, snowlike ice that they make with special filtered water. The fun part is building your own custom dessert -- pick a size, choose your condensed milk flavor (like regular or ube), and load up on toppings. The toppings rotate daily and my personal favorites are strawberries, rice balls, boba, and egg pudding. Fresh fruit is always a must! It's creamy, refreshing, and perfectly balanced -- definitely my favorite shave ice spot on island. I've brought friends and family here, and everyone's has loved their first bite. I usually order the shareable size with ube or regular condensed milk, and it never disappoints -- although the serving size sometimes varies depending on who's working. They also offer soft serve, traditional shave ice, and even have some cute branded merch if you want to grab a souvenir that supports a small Maui biz. It's the perfect spot to cool off! Whether you're a longtime bao bing fan or trying it for the first time, Da Sweet Spot delivers a dessert experience that's both delicious and totally customizable to your palate.

Da Sweet Spot was such a fun little discovery on Maui. It's in this busy food truck area with tons going on -- random souvenir stands, different food options, a cute tortoise wandering around, gardens, just a really lively, touristy-but-charming kind of vibe. My partner actually found this place because we love Taiwanese shaved ice spots like Meet Fresh and Sul Bing on the mainland, and we wanted to see what Maui's version was like. We were absolutely not disappointed. Their take has a really tropical twist. We got an ube base and a strawberry one, and both flavors were super intense in a good way -- rich, creamy, and refreshing. The mochi was soft and chewy, and they sprinkled on this Chinese red candy powder that added a nice nostalgic sweetness. I also loved the edible flower garnish; it wasn't just pretty, it actually added a little texture and made the whole bowl feel special. Only downsides: the wild chickens around the food truck area are bold and will one hundred percent stalk you for your dessert, and the prices are on the higher side. But it's Maui, everything is pricey, and for me the quality and experience made it worth it. Overall, it ended up being one of my favorite dessert stops on the island.

Elizabeth S.

Absolutely a must. Shaved Ice to the maximum. We got the Hapa special which was shareable . Tropical and the Passion special. It has so much tropical fruit mochi , popping boba. The dessert was sweet but not Maui. Located in South Maui garden. Self service has table and chairs to enjoy while simmering ocean breeze.

Lots of variety of types of shave ice. 3 different types of shave ice. Nice service and fast. Dole Whip is good too. In a fun location.

Dulce_ M.

Located inside the South Maui garden. They are my second favorite after Ululani Shaved ice in Maui. Ordered the plain shaved ice with ube condensed milk, and mochi toppings and azuki. We also tried "ocean" that has a base of vanilla soft serve, blue raspberry and coconut flavor. Topping of popping boba. Both are good, they are just way too sweet I think because of the condensed milk. I suggest to asked them if they can go easy on condensed milk, because we didn't. And it's almost sugar coma. Plenty of tables and chairs.

Jake J.

Da Sweet spot was our third shave ice this trip. They have the finest shave and softest mochi so far. We had the passion hapa, which was awesome. The lilikoi jam will crush any sweet tooth. It was very sweet, too sweet for me. I'm excited to try some real fruit options next time. The Maui South Garden that Da Sweet Spot is in is a very nice walkthrough with plenty of food and dessert options.

Maureen J.

Highly recommended! It's located in the food truck court. This was a pretty good shaved ice place. It was pretty heavy after eating dinner so I recommend sharing. Workers were friendly and the location had a really nice ambiance. There's a little area to eat next to this place. Great customer service and a must to compare against other shaved ice places!

Delicious shave ice spot tucked into South Maui Gardens! Went for shave ice and discovered that they offer dole whip too. I got the shareable size with pineapple, strawberry, and mango & added mochi, popping boba, and snow cap on top. Definitely would come back here for a sweet treat!

So so so fun!! And delicious! In Maui there's probably over 1,000 shaved ice places around, and it's really hard to choose which place to try. This place is doing some amazing stuff, and it feels so different from any of the shaved ice desert shops around. You can choose between a personal size and a shareable size. Personal gets 2 toppings and shareable gets 3, with any additional being only $1. They douse your personal yummy treat in condensed milk and a very cute edible flower wafer. I got a personal size with rice balls and egg pudding and my partner got boba and coconut pudding! The area this is at is AMAZING! There's a little circle of About 10 different food trucks, with lots of seating and shade! There's plenty of parking all around the area too. One of the trucks was even playing movies on a t.v. screen he had attached to the front of his truck for kids, very sweet. Do not miss this place on your next trip!! Must stop for sure. read more

Lilikoi + any shaved ice flavor = heaven What can I say, this place is equivalent to wandering in a desert and spotting an oasis of water. Extremely refreshing, satisfying and rejuvenating. I had the matcha, ube, strawberry, and original flavors with lilikoi - all excellent flavors (yes, I came back 4 times!) It wasn't overly sweet and the shaved ice and jam paired well. Service was friendly and I'd say this is a must go to for shaved ice. read more

Perhaps I've had more elaborate bingsoo before, but this was a little too simplistic for me. Ice itself was well made though. Condensed milk was, well condensed milk. Nothing elaborate or fancy about it. Maybe it's worth trying upscaling to the other flavored milks like the ube or matcha or purchasing more toppings so that you aren't just eating plain condensed milk. I would have much more enjoyed this if there were options for pandan, coconut, mango, or any other tropical flavors to make it taste a little less like just a basic bingsoo. read more

I wish I could give this business 10 stars! They are so amazing! This food truck is such a wonderful addition to Maui and it's the best treat my lactose intolerant heart could ever ask for (VEGAN CONDENSED MILK?!?) you will be met by the sweetest owner who is happy to tell you about the origins of Bàobīng and how she made this happen! They have a punch card, which trust me, will take no time to fill up whether you live here or you are just visiting! This is the perfect snack any time of day. Delicious fresh local fruits and the perfect sweetness of the condensed milk, vegan or otherwise) is the perfect addition to the shave ice underneath. The best way to beat the heat in south Maui. A must stop in my opinion. read more

Almost missed Bling Bing- it was closed while they had family in town the first night we were at the Kihei Food Oasis. Luckily they would be open the night before we left for the mainland. I guess I would never have known what I missed, but I am glad I don't have to wonder (though now I do miss it). Taiwanese shave ice with the toppings on the bottom- they even have a vegan condensed "milk" option which was surprisingly good. The kid's size was enough, but for two people, definitely try the next size up. The ice was like snow- perfectly light and absorbed the sweet topping to the point it turns into something like ice cream, but lighter and better with the fruit and boba toppings-on-the bottom. A young girl took our order and couldn't have been more professional or helpful. Great location and absolutely worth your time. read more

Thankful that I stumbled upon Bling Bing while grabbing lunch on a stormy December day with my family! As Taiwanese Americans, we were a little hesitant at first to spend our dessert calories on a new venue, given that we frequent many favorites in California and Taiwan and are especially picky about topping quality. However, we were thrilled with the authentic texture and taste of our 3-topping order of rice balls, boba, and taro on top of a perfectly sweet condensed milk shaved snow. The tender chewiness of the lightly sweet boba and rice balls was exactly what I was craving, and the fragrant taro paired perfectly with the milky snow. Cute twists such as Xmas colored rice balls and an edible flower wafer were non-traditional but fun. The owner was lovely and patiently took our order -- we look forward to stopping by again soon! read more

Best shaved ice ever!!!! There are so many shave ice places in town but none compare to Bling Bing Maui located in the Kihei Food Oasis. They have the best toppings including fresh fruit, sweet bean, boba, and delicious rice balls. If you haven't tried their shave ice, it's an absolute must! The location is a nice spot to relax. Lots of food options and plenty of seating and shade. There are games for kids and adults including axe throwing, corn hole, and jumbo Jenga. You can even BYOB. Lastly, not only was the shave ice the best but the service was awesome too. They were always quick with the service and always friendly. read more

History

Established in 2022.

Our owner is part Chinese. She grew up enjoying many Chinese dishes and bàobīng is one of her favorites. After moving to Maui, she quickly realized how much she missed bàobīng. She also noticed the booming growth of Food Trucks on island. She travelled to China and Taiwan to visit family and researched the many ways bàobīng is presented. Thus, Bling Bing was born!

Meet the Business Owner: Marri G.

Aloha! My name is Marri! (Pronounced like sorry) I am the owner and operator of Bling Bing Maui. I am part Chinese, and I grew up in an Asian Household. I enjoy many Chinese dishes, but bàobīng is one of my favorites. After moving to Maui, I quickly realized how much I missed bàobīng. Thus, I utilized my childhood, family recipes, and travel to China, Japan, & Taiwan to create my ideal BàoBīng and decided to share it with the island of Maui.

After looking over the menu and seeing some wild options like birthday cake and gummy bear, I ultimately decided to go with an Ono Hua, or shaved fruit. For my shave ice I went with a regular size and chose POG as my flavor. Since it was shaved fruit, he had to switch from the regular ice to one that already had the fruit in it. Once he finished making it, he asked if I wanted a sweetener on top and I chose the coconut. As soon as I walked away I took my first bite and wow was it good. The POG flavor was legit and while the lilikoi dominated, that is exactly what I like. I loved the sharpness from the passion fruit and how the real fruit flavors were allowed to shine. The ice itself was super fluffy and light which made it even better. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. I really loved this shave ice and can't wait to bring my wife the next time we are in Maui.

This location is a small food shack right outside of Kihei Kalama Village. There was a small line when we got there but thankfully the person working the counter was quick. For my shave ice on this day I went with a small and chose piña colada, passion fruit, and guava. Starting with the ice, it was shaved nice and thin and I did not get any clumps. The flavors were interesting but good and while they leaned sweet, I liked that it was not a complete sugar bomb. Because of that I was able to finish the whole thing and felt refreshed afterwards. My father enjoyed his shave ice as well and agreed that while it was sweet, it was not overly so. The bottom line for me is that I would stop by here again in the future. While it is not in my top tier of shave ice, it is a solid option and can definitely scratch the itch when I am in the mood for one.

It tastes exactly what it sounds like. They used to give the mustard spread, but now they charge for it. Either way, we are still coming back because of how fluffy and flakey the croissant is.

I did enjoy overall. The cinnamon roll was not hot from the oven, so I avoided disappointment. Next time I got the almond croissant. Pretty tasty. Basically they cut the croissant in half, filled in the cream and put the top back. Odd. Better between the two. Might be too sweet for some. Prices are higher than other places. I don't think you'll find anything subpar. Seems like good offerings.

Other than that the Kalua Pig Pot Stickers, Charred Octopus, Crab Cakes and Blackened Ahi are the starters I rotate through. For my Main, I am less eclectic.

I have tried other dishes, the Abalone, Kona Lobster and Ribeye (I know, I know, who orders steak in a seafood restaurant), but I keep coming back to. For Dessert, I am also in a rut, but I love desserts they set on fire and in this case it is Bananas Foster. I do sneak bites off my DW's Creme Brulee, as does off my BF. The service is terrific, attentive without being intrusive. I used to joke about the Chicago store that if you knocked a spoon off the table someone would catch it before it hit the floor. The Maui service isn't quite that attentive and I am not sure I would want it to be.

Da Sweet Spot was so good that we ended up visiting twice during our Maui trip, and honestly, we probably would have gone back a third time if we'd had the chance. On our first visit, we ordered the shave ice with ube condensed milk, and it was absolutely incredible. The ice (snow?) was light, refreshing, and perfectly sweet, while the ube condensed milk added a rich, creamy flavor that made every bite better than the last. We loved it so much that we came back a second time specifically to try another flavor. Our return visit was for the strawberry version, and it was just as delicious. One of the best things about Da Sweet Spot is the huge variety of toppings available. There are so many fun options to customize your bowl, and the finished product looks almost too beautiful to eat. Located in South Maui Gardens, it's the perfect treat after grabbing food from the nearby trucks or spending time exploring the gardens. On a hot Hawaiian day -- which is basically every day -- there's nothing better than a cold, colorful bowl of shave ice. Refreshing, delicious, and genuinely memorable, Da Sweet Spot became one of our favorite discoveries on Maui. read more

Da Sweet Spot in Kihei, Maui, is a must-visit! We've had the pleasure of trying every single Hapa Bowl on the menu, and honestly, they're all incredible. From the perfectly seasoned Shave ice to the vibrant, fresh toppings, each bowl is a flavorful masterpiece that showcases the best of local ingredients. The combination of savory and sweet in every bite is just mouthwatering! The staff here is also fantastic so friendly and welcoming, making every visit a pleasure. The ambiance is laid-back and relaxed, which makes it the perfect spot to enjoy a delicious meal after a long day of exploring Maui. Whether you're looking for a quick bite or a satisfying meal, Da Sweet Spot hits the mark every time. Their portions are generous, and the price is very reasonable considering the quality. If you haven't tried the Hapa Bowls yet, do yourself a favor and go! You won't regret it. Every visit leaves us wanting more. Da Sweet Spot is truly a hidden gem in Kihei! read more

We're so happy to see Da Sweet Spot thriving in their beautiful new location in Kihei! The space is clean, inviting, and full of good vibes -- a perfect match for their already amazing shave ice. From the moment we walked in, the staff was warm, welcoming, and genuinely friendly. You can tell they take pride in their work and care about the customer experience. Service was fast and efficient, even with other people in line -- we never felt rushed, and everything was made with care. The shave ice? Absolutely delicious. Fluffy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced -- not overly sweet, just right. You can tell they use quality ingredients, and there's a wide variety of fun and local flavors to choose from. We'll definitely be back (probably way too often). Highly recommend supporting this local gem! read more

I eat shave ice everyday every time i go to Hawaii from Oahu to Maui. I am also a chef and restaurant owner with an eye for detail and a discerning palate. I have had many styles from Korean, Japanese, snow cones to hawaiian. Bling Bing being the Taiwanese style of shave ice. I must say. It has been one of my favorite shave ice experiences on the island. You must go. I don't care if you have to drive across the island. It's worth it. And while your there enjoy some of the the best food truck parks on the island with vibes to boot. read more

so so so delicious! I highly recommend the boba and rice balls! The owner let me know that she makes the rice balls everyday and that they are her most popular topping. She also let me know that because of this, she sells out of them so fast, so I'm glad that we got to try them! We also noticed that it does seem to be a one-woman show in there so we didn't mind the wait! We will definitely be dreaming out Bling Bing back at home! Will probably stop by again before we leave! read more

Their Pineapple Cream is made with simple ingredients, and you can absolutely taste the difference. They offer a variety of island inspired flavors, which made it tough to choose because everything sounded delicious. Unfortunately, we didn't discover this place until our last night in Maui. Otherwise, I have no doubt we would have come back multiple times during our trip. If you're a fan of pineapple ice cream, this is a must-visit. Seating was limited outdoors and inside was full. Wish they'd have more outdoor seating.

Get the macadamia ice cream in the middle and thank me later because it's life changing. Their mochi topping is also pillowy soft and perfectly chewy if you're into that. My friend got a more mild but still adventurous flavor combo of green tea, ube, and coconut and said it was delicious too. You can't go wrong w any flavor here. This location was inside an aquarium so a little bit harder to find but not too bad. You can just check in at the front to get in for food/retail shopping only without having to buy aquarium admission to get in. Plenty of seating and service was fast!

One of my daughters chose to add soft serve underneath her shave ice, which was a combination I had never tried before.
