Hired them for a private event, my baby shower!! Communication was very clear and they were always available to reach. They came on time and set up their station. Everyone absolutely loved the shaved ice!!! And the portion size is perfect that you can try multiple flavors without feeling too full on the sugar. Love that the syrups were imported from Hawaii and you could taste the quality. I hate artificial flavoring but I definitely did not taste that. It was a big hit with this heat. They left on time and did not even leave a single piece of trash. Would definitely work with them again! read more

I reserved Halohana for my baby shower wayyy in advance knowing my event will be during the heat of July & let me tell you, it was the best decision I could've made. Their shaved ice transported me back to Hawaii. Like Top Tier shaved ice, right up there next to Matsumoto! Here in CA?! Say less... Thank you so much for the wonderful service and yumminess! My guests couldn't stop raving about the delicious shaved ice that kept them cool during a HOT summer day. Will forever be dreaming about the next time I can have another shaved ice by Halohana!! BOOK THEM, YOU WONT BE SORRY! read more

Wow Wow Wooooow. My husband wanted to add a touch of Hawaii to our baby's 1st birthday with some shaved ice so I confided in my trusty Yelp search and luckily stumbled upon Halohana! Once we saw the flavors offered, we knew we HAD to book them! Halo Halo!?!? Mango Sago!? aaaaand you get all the traditional hawaiian shaved ice flavors too! As soon as I sent in an email, I was able to hop on the phone with Alyssa and discuss pricing and options. Alyssa was super responsive through emails and texts and the entire booking option a breeze! I really appreciate that since it's sooo tough out here as a first time mom, it was a big weight off my shoulders. If you're thinking about HaloHana for some shaved ice. Don't overthink it and just do it! All our guests ended up getting 1 each and some actually went back for SECONDS!!!! Seeing all our loved ones eyes light up when they heard HaloHana shaved iced was being served made us soooo happy and really helped set the mood for our party! Not to mention how cute the cart/signage/entire aesthetics are -- they really helped take our event to the next level. Thank you HaloHana for being part of our core memory for our little fam and our beloved guests! read more

I'm not a shave ice expert by any means, but their flavors were definitely yummier than what I've tried in Hawaii. Super impressed by the quality, portion, and uniqueness of each one. You can tell the owner is really passionate about the details and delivering a quality product. TIRAMISU: my personal favorite! The coffee flavor was surprisingly strong and the cream added a smooth richness without being overly heavy. HALO HALO: loved all the toppings. Such a great variety of flavors and textures all in one bowl, especially the subtle toasted crispy crunchies layered in. So good! WATERMELON LIME: I was shocked at how tart the flavor hit initially and then pleasantly surprised at how it transitioned to be sweeter as we kept eating. Super refreshing for a hot day. MANGO SAGO: tastes essentially like what you'd imagine. Quite fresh and mango forward. The best and most impressive thing about all the flavors is that they're "not too sweet"! For some of them you'd think it would be too sweet or too rich, but they are all really light, so you feel less guilty about trying more than one :) read more

Was looking for something to add a little sweetness to my event and my sister came across Halohana on yelp. So glad she did! Had my event a couple days ago and it was hottttt! So the shaved ice was perrrfect! Alyssa is super friendly and walked me through how to book and made it super easy and stress free. I went with their signature tier which allowed me to choose 3 signature flavors. Watermelon lime- ohhh my guests loved this one. They make their own ice cream for this flavor and it was so refreshing, light, and the dash of tajin made it all come together. Strawberry shortcake- this one was my personal favorite, every bite just kept getting better and better anddddd that vanilla ice cream in the center yummmm along with thier dallop of cream. The freshly added graham crackers gave it that perfect crunch like you were biting into a strawberry cheesecake! Mango sago- ohhhh all my older guests loved this one. It was a taste of familiarity for them and the perfect treat. And you know elders are picky with desserts , especially Asian ones. They loved that it was tasty, but not too sweet! Definitely check them out and book them for your next events. They have the cutest little cart stand that just makes your whole event so much cuter and really come together. Thank you again Halohana for making my event such a yummy and memorable one! Can't wait to book your team again! read more

I haven't really ventured out to trying shaved ice desserts before, but this pop-up event I just attended is making me want to try more! They were offering Halo Halo, Strawberry Shortcake, Mango Sago, and Mais con Yelo. I ordered the Halo Halo. For the price you pay, you get a really decent sized portion! I was able to share it with my kiddos and still be satisfied with the amount we received. The Halo Halo tasted good! I love that it wasn't overly sweet, which I really appreciate! There were lots of people who attended and they were well organized, which made the line go by fairly quickly! If you're looking for a shaved ice vendor for your parties, definitely give them a call! read more

Get them for your next party, immediately!! Alyssa from Halohana was so nice and easy to communicate with leading up to our party. We hired them for my son's 1st birthday party, and it was such a hit with all our family and friends (especially because it was a sunny, hot day). We chose the package where we could have 3 special combinations - cookies and cream, mango sago, and halo halo. They also had ice cream and other syrups for regular shave ice. We're excited to work with you again in the future! Thanks again for celebrating my son's 1st birthday with us read more

I had the absolute pleasure of booking Halohana for a church outreach event, and I cannot say enough good things about this amazing shaved ice startup business. From the very beginning, their team was friendly, professional, and incredibly attentive. They made the entire process smooth and stress-free, which is such a blessing when you're organizing an event for a mid-size / large group. On the day of our outreach, they arrived early, set up efficiently, and immediately created a welcoming and joyful atmosphere. Their kindness and positive attitude stood out, and they treated every one who came (from kids to homeless) with genuine care and respect. You could tell they truly love what they do. And the shaved ice--wow. It was hands down the best I've ever had. The ice was perfectly smooth and fluffy, and the flavors were rich, refreshing, and high-quality. Watermelon lime and Oreo. To die for. Nothing tasted artificial (except for the oreos, but that's because they are oreos!). Nothing was watered down. Some guests kept coming back for more, and many of them commented that it was superb shaved ice. What impressed me most was their commitment to excellence. Even during busy moments, they never rushed or cut corners. Every serving met the same high standard of quality, and their attention to detail made a big difference. Whether it was helping someone choose a flavor, accommodating special requests, or simply offering a smile, they went above and beyond. Halohana is perfect for both small gatherings and large events. Whether you're hosting a church function, birthday party, community event, or celebration, they are reliable, professional, and a joy to work with. If you have a sweet tooth but also care about quality, presentation, and great service, this is the team for you. Special shoutout to Jose and Alyssa! AGAIN--I highly recommend Halohana to anyone looking for an unforgettable shaved ice experience. They helped make our church outreach event special, memorable, and full of BIG smiles. We will definitely be booking them again in the future! read more

Will definitely be recommending them to all my friends, especially with spring and summer events coming up! read more
