    If you are looking for GREAT customer service and somewhere that is accommodating with their…read moreservices look no further. I did my research and compared Hawaiian Jim's to another company and there is comparison. So many options to choose from and sherry worked with me and we came up with a great plan for my 2 year old Grandsons birthday party. I would highly recommend you will not regret your decision! I've already referred to multiple people!

    I had such high expectations! A little disappointed...maybe I am a Hawaiian ice snob…read more We went to the Rhode Island hot air balloon fair (which was also disappointing since it was too windy to fly any hot air balloons that day) on a very hot day. I've been looking for real, good Hawaiian ice for a LONG time and have heard of Jim. They had a truck there that day - how perfect for a ridiculously hot summer day (especially after waiting for smoked bbq). I got a regular sized order - it came with three flavors. Price was fair, as it may be considered a "specialty" food item. There was not a wide variety in terms of flavors. Unfortunately, I couldn't taste the flavors I got. I basically drank pieces of ice and water with hints of whatever flavor I picked. The ice collapsed once I received my snow flower cone - it became half the original size. The ice wasn't the best quality I've had but I know they have a decent ice shaving machine. Also, the person serving the ice did NOT look happy to be there at all (however, I am sure it was hard to stand the heat that day). Overall, I was pretty disappointed by the overall experience, but won't let that stop me from finding the best Hawaiian ice outside of Hawaii!

    Walked by the shop on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. Noticed a few customers sitting outside…read moreenjoying their poke bowls and the Hawaiian shaved ice. The bowls looked really delicious and my daughter really was torn between picking the shaved ice or ice cream from another shop. The shaved ice won! This is a very small store front with a couple of out side tables an a few seats inside. The shaved ice is a really fine shave and packed well for the syrups and fruits. This was a nice treat, pricey compared to being on the islands but a great option for Newport visitors.

    MAHO! My literal favorite lunch spot in Newport! Nothing hits different in the summer than a giant…read morebowl of super fresh rice, veggies, and of course, sushi grade tuna or salmon, the succulent and totally addictive crab salad, and perfectly ripe avocado.. quite possibly one of the best quick service lunch spots in Newport and in Rhode Island that I've encountered thus far. The shop is small, but service is quick and you can also easily order online, which is what I do most days (eek, only a 30 minute workday break, so you gotta do what you gotta do!). The team here is friendly and it's always fun to stop in and say hello, even if I'm just picking up an order. I usually do the make your own bowl, and I will share my order in case you need to replicate it!: The Certified Morganic Bowl (yes, I just made this up) -Half Greens / Half Brown Rice -Shrimp with house ginger sauce -Extra cilantro and cucumbers -Crab salad -Double avocado -Furikake Seasoning -Drizzle of Sriracha Aioli Mic drop. You're welcome. Go to Maho! What are you waiting for?
