    Lychee Ice Cream
    Kunalan S.

    This is a real hidden gem. Unassuming storefront, cash only, tv playing Japanese news coverage of the store, this spot is a vibe. They have an overwhelming number of unique tropical flavors. I went for the lychee ice cream, and it was incredible. Perfect ratio of lychee flavor to milkiness. My one complaint is that the ice granules were a tad too coarse for my liking. $11 per cup is steep, but its well worth a visit.

    Cash / Venmo / Zelle only Henry's Place is a small dessert shop selling a variety of different ice cream flavors. It's a no frills place with only a couple seats outside. If you happen to need one there is also an ATM on-site. We were told that their Kona coffee ice cream ($10) was really good so that's what we got. Their ice cream is stored and sold in styrofoam cups but it's packed to the top. The ice cream was creamy and really good and I'm sure their other flavors are as well.

    Finally got the opportunity to try Henry's Place, and honestly, it is just OK. I think what threw me off was the service. I felt like we were annoying whoever was working the register with our excitement of taking pictures and videos. She even got a little upset with my sister and told her to "be quick" when opening the freezer door and to "not take any videos." So yeah, it is true with what others are saying in their reviews about not opening the freezer until you know which flavor to get. I thought they would have a pretty good amount of flavors but I kept saying the same ones during my visit, so I ended up getting a Lihing Pineapple Mango Sorbet and my sister ended up getting a Passion Orange Guava Ice Cream. Both were good, I won't deny them that, but I felt like the sorbet was heavy on the lihing flavor. The consistency was for sure smooth and it did melt pretty quickly. They are CASH ONLY or you can Venmo or Zelle. Parking might be a pain so it's best if you walk from somewhere. I think they close early on some days because we went one evening before closing time stated on Yelp and they were already closed. Overall, I don't think I would make it a must for me to go here again. Maybe if I was nearby.

    Hand made fresh ice creams and sorbet. Mainly a pick up and go shop. Pay by cash or Venmo etc, no card We got the Ube ice cream, the mango ice cream and the pineapple/ guava sorbet. Loved the ube ice cream--such a deep rich ube flavor. Due to the real ube in it, it was a tad gritty but I didn't mind because of the great flavor. The sorbet was excellent as well, not overly sweet and really highlighted the fruit flavors. The mango ice cream was more than a little bit icy but had a great flavor. So some things to work on to perfect the ice cream but amazing flavors.

    Thank you Yelp Elite All Star and Foodie Buddy Donna O. for introducing Henry's Place to me. It all started about a month ago. We were on a foodie adventure and Donna said let's check out Waikiki Tea. Located next door is Henry's Place. Donna raved about this place having the best fresh fruit sorbet. Fast forward to this week, and we found ourselves back at Henry's Place. I ran into Henry's Place to pick up a watermelon sorbet for Donna. Of course, Donna kindly shared several tastes of the sorbet with me! It was sooo delicious and smooth in texture! Sweet and refreshing. All natural watermelon flavor throughout the sorbet. 5/5 star flavor. A bit pricey in my humble opinion at $9 plus. However, having said that, it is quality flavor you are going to enjoy. Plus the smooth texture of the sorbet is an amazing melt in your mouth experience. It's a small store with freezers holding the sorbet and ice cream flavors. A sign asks you not to open the door until you have selected your choice of flavor. The place gives you a vintage Waikiki hut like vibes on the inside. Definitely a popular spot for locals and island visitors. Perfect to help you cool down on a warm summer day. Parking is limited here. Find street parking or come with a friend so you can jump out a pick up a few cups to share.

    Henry's place is place for good homemade ice cream and sorbet. I came here many years ago and would come here more often if they were in town! Probably need to find and take someone with me to grab some for me lol. I do like sorbet since it's not dairy and it's like eating puree frozen fruits! They do sell fresh fruits here too. I was lucky to find street parking! I usually go to Waikiki Tea (Lady M) at the same time but wasn't sure which stall was for Waikiki Tea in the parking lot. Parking stalls are shared by Wasabi Bistro at night, Waikiki Tea and the Urasenke Tea House that do the Japanese Tea ceremony on Saratoga Road. Wasabi Bistro and Waikiki Tea are the same owner(s). Henry's place is next door to Waikiki Tea, so they are nice to let people park there just to grab and go their frozen treats. The sorbet cup is about $9.05, but I enjoyed every bite since it was just like eating frozen mango! It was really good. I wanted to try pina-colada, lychee, and the watermelon again. Gosh it must have been 6 years ago when I first came here to try the watermelon sorbet per my photo posted! I love watermelon drink and sorbet too. It was so refreshing! Just make your decision before opening the freezer's door! Henry's Place may be hard to find on beach walk but it's a small store to the right! Usually it's crowded with customers outside, so you can't miss the store!

    Lychee Sorbet
    Maikhanh H.

    Food: Had the lychee sorbet and it was perfect refreshing, full of flavor, and just the thing for a hot summer day in Waikīkī. Ambiance: The shop itself is small and simple, with no indoor seating, so you'll need to enjoy your treat outside. It has a casual, charming feel that adds to the local vibe. Service: Service was solid, quick and straightforward, which is all you really need at a spot like this.

    Tiny walk up spot with a few chairs out front. There are four freezers with various sorbet and ice cream flavors-- wanted to try them all! We decided on a POG sorbet and it did not disappoint. It is hard as rock when you first open it so best to let it defrost for 10 minutes before eating.

    Homemade in a styrofoam cup sorbet. Cash only but they accept Zelle or Venmo. They have outdoor seating and you pick your flavors from a freezer so it's just like a store. It's an in and out type of store front so there shouldn't be long lines and you can sit and enjoy it or eat while walking. Because the flavors are written with permanent marker, my hands were stained. There were a variety of flavors and we went with the li bing pineapple mango sorbet. It's like $10 so a little more pricey but you get a lot and can share. They close at 9pm which is on the later side for the stores in this area so it's one of the later dessert spots open. I enjoyed the flavor and it didn't melt quickly. There's no parking in the area so easier to walk here or grab something k the way back to your hotel if you're in this area.

    Passion Orange Guava ice cream (left) and Strawberry Guava sorbet (right)
    Olivia C.

    I found this place by chance while walking around Waikiki. There were so many people, and I was craving a sweet treat so I had to check it out. This casual, homey stop features fridges of homemade fruit ice creams and sorbets. It's worth noting that one cup is about $10 so more on the expensive side but the cup gives a decent portion size. My friend ordered the passion fruit orange guava ice cream and I tried the strawberry guava sorbet. The passion fruit orange guava ice cream was amazing! One of the best ice creams me and my friend had eaten in a long time. The strawberry guava was good, but a bit too sweet and icy for me. I'd try the mango ice cream next time I go instead!

    This is a hole in the wall dessert spot next to Lady M bakery. The service was fast and they are cash /venmo /zelle only. The shaved ice/sorbet/water base ice-cream we tried was ginger for $10 for a small cup. The ginger flavor was good and the seating area is cute.

    Passion Orange Guava Ice Cream Pineapple Coconut Ice Cream
    Ysabelle A.

    Henry's ice cream is the best ice cream I've had in my life to this day. I was intrigued to see such a small shop with just two freezers full of ice cream in styrofoam cups. There were SO MANY flavors to choose from, I wish I could try them all. The passion orange guava flavor was amazing. It was refreshing and perfectly sweet. The texture was slightly grainy, yet creamy, smooth, and rich, something I've never had before, but loved. You can taste the quality ingredients they use, and I constantly crave their ice cream from California. This is a must have if you are in Waikiki. I'd take a flight just for it.

    We got the lychee ice cream. It was creamy and refreshing, and tasted exactly like lychee. The ice cream was amazing, but the ice cream was hard to scoop out with the provided plastic spoons, as my brother broke 2. The lady in the front provided us extras thankfully. It's kind of crowded but doesn't matter really as the seating is outdoor. It's very good, I recommend.

Since this ice cream shop is located in chinatown, parking isn't the greatest at times. There is no designated parking for this ice cream shop but you can hopefully find nearby street parking or go to a nearby parking garage. It's easiest if youre just on foot. All in all, definitely an ice cream parlor worth trying out!

That should leave you enough room to mix everything, each scoop you should get a different bite. A long spoon would be best for the larger sizes! Magnolia did not disappoint. I'll be back!!

    In our office, food is often discussed where we share information with each other. Samurai was…read morebrought up by my colleague who sits in front of me and was going to head over. Another colleague and I jumped at the opportunity to tag along on a Friday early afternoon. Located down Umi Street not too far from neighboring New City Nissan on N King Street, Samurai moved to their current location in 1995 serving Maui style sherbet, popcorn and other local snacks. They also expanded to Samurai Snacks Aiea for an impressive 20+ years before closing its doors in May 2023. We arrived shortly after lunch time where we pondered at the menu wondering what to get. It's not fancy here at Samurai - - the storefront is basic and nothing fancy with a few seats patrons can sit on if they decide to eat their treats on premise. Morale has been low at the office so I decided to get some convenient prepackaged 4oz assorted Samurai cups to cheer up the staff. My colleagues also picked up some bags of buttered popcorn with mochi crunch and furikake for an informal office party to welcome the much needed weekend. Because we were already there, we also got some soft serve cups to cool down before heading back to the office. My colleagues had the classic strawberry and blue vanilla swirl and I selected the mango. My colleagues enjoyed their selection but the mango didn't live up to my expectations. The color was vibrant and enticing but sadly the mango flavor did not come through. Each cup came with a sugar roll cookie that was delicious. After our cold treat we headed back to the office with our surprise for our colleagues where it was a big hit. There were many happy faces standing in line grabbing some popcorn and a 4-oz cup of Samurai. Overall, a much better experience with Samurai that's deserving of an update with higher marks. It has been noted in my books to stick to flavors I'm already aware of and avoid trying new ones for that possible disappointment that often happens to me.
