    Decent shave ice if you're in the area. Service was very fast. The store has outdoor seating only. The best one was the Tropical Breeze. It has mango, Lilikoi, and guava I believe. I'd try other shave ice places before you goto this location.

    A lotta colada and the makai!

    Hubby and I had two "Da Small" shave ice at Jojo's!! Service was great! Girls were fast. Vibe is cool for a summer afternoon. The rude tourist I could do without. Lol. Much aloha though to JoJo's Shave Ice and their contribution to the local community.

    8/10 Got the a'loda colada. Refreshing, sweet, and scrumptious. It melted really fast tho...

    Yum! Needed a bit of a refresher on a muggy day! Shaved ice sure did hit the spot. Not as good as Ululani's but good! The girls were very helpful in picking their top customer fav. The ice was soft, vanilla ice cream yummy and syrup very flavorful! Since it's just a walk up located at the coconut marketplace there wasn't really any dedicated seating. But there was seating and the grassy area was very pleasant!

    Love the ice cream in the middle. All the shaved ice was very soft. Flavors are very noticeable. Portion sizes are sufficient. Staff is very nice and patient. There's seating outdoor nearby. This is located in the Coconut Marketplace, whereas there's lots of parking. This was our first time here and won't be our last.

    I heard this was a big name for shaved ice in Hawaii, so I had to try it before I left. I got the Tropical Breeze (small, local style), and it was delicious. They didn't charge me for the local style upgrade and even charged $1 less than what was listed on the menu, which was a nice surprise. Definitely recommend if you're looking for something refreshing!

    Very mid shave ice - probably the worst I've had in Hawai'i. Service was great. Ambiance was lacking due to it being in a shopping area

    This place has many locations here on Kauai. I will say they have the best shave ice on this island. This is for the location in Coconut Marketplace. This place has about 3 tables around it. Crowded around 2pm so tables were all taken. There is a nice grassy area you can sit at though not too far from the place. Not that much shaded areas outside from the table areas.

    Jojo's shave ice was the perfect treat on a sunny Kauai evening. I ordered the Hawaiian Breeze, a perfectly sweet mixture of guava, lilikoi, and mango syrups atop a super-fine bed of shave ice. The macadamia nut ice cream on the bottom was so refreshing, and the haupia topping was creamy and delicious. Conveniently located at Coconut Marketplace, it was an easy walk from our resort. Jojo's will definitely be my go-to on my next Kauai adventure!

    Everything was great! Amazing favor and service was good too. Could've used a few more napkins though.

    The folks at Jojo's were really nice! The line moves quick and we got our shave ice decently quick. There's a couple tables, and seating around the plaza. Jojo's shave ice grew on me as I ate through my first cup. Hear me out- shave ice with the macadamia nut ice cream hits way harder than just shave ice alone. We got the tropical breeze to share because it's actually really big scoops. At first it was okay, but I should've gotten a little shave ice in the spoon with the ice cream. As soon as I hit the ice cream on the bottom, it was way better! I highly recommend trying it out and it will hit so hard after a day in the hot sun! It's pretty big though, I'd share.

    They say it's the best shaved ice spot in town, and it did not disappoint! I got a coffee-flavored one if I remember correctly? Whatever I got, it was delicious. Maybe not the best shaved ice spot I had been to during my time in Hawaii but maybe that's because I like spots more off the beaten path. This one is popular for good reason I guess, and has an awesomely expansive offering of flavors. Long line but quick service!

    Great flavors! Icy on top and creamy at the bottom. Nice treat on a late afternoon. Staff recommended the tropical breeze, which has a great balance of tropical flavors. Friendly staff. My eyes lit up when I saw the distinct sign from our hotel next door (Kauai Shores). This is trouble lol. Got to try other flavors next time. Great place to hangout. Lots of chairs to sit down and enjoy.

    I can see why they were voted best Hawaiian ice 5 years in a row!…read more Simply THE BEST. I think what makes their shaved ice stand out are the toppings and the quality of their flavors. These aren't regular dyed syrups anyone can buy from a grocery store. House made, fresh ingredients is what sets this place a part. Service is quick with a kiosk or you can place your order with a worker in the front. Clean and spacious shop that offers free parking and restrooms. The taste will blue you away and I wish this place had another location in California because I'll be dreaming about it until I go back! Mahalo!!!

Here is our overall ranking of shave ice places in Kauai for our trip: Kauai Shave Ice Rankings 2026 1. (Tied) North Shore Bowls in Kilauea - very enjoyable and creative pre-designed flavor combos, nice fluffy ice, good ice cream, flavorful syrups 1. (Tied) Wailua Shave Ice - very enjoyable and creative pre-designed flavor combos, delicious toppings, very good ice texture and ice cream; too light on the syrup for one of our two trips 3. Wishing Well in Hanalei - good fluffy ice and really flavorful natural syrups; downside is it's very crowded (always!) and pretty basic 4. JoJo's in Hanalei - this is a standard shave ice place; ice was a bit compact and icy, but the syrup was plentiful (maybe too much, if you can believe that, for our one visit) and the ice cream was both generous and good 5. Hee Fat in Kapaa - great flavors but the syrup was light coverage, and the ice cream seemed gummy/freezer burned, ice was decent texture; used to be our favorite in Kauai in years past, but it hasn't kept up with other places and maybe the quality has gone down hill 6. Honu Shave Ice in Kapaa - syrup was very light, almost nonexistent on one of our shave ices, ice was clumpy/chunky, ice cream was really minimal, flavors were decent

The customer service is absolutely horrible and I would not go here unless you want to be treated bad. We had a party of 8. He was trying to talk us out being seated the entire time saying it will be an "hour plus plus" of time trying to get us to leave. Our party told him repeatedly we were going to stay and wait until a table was ready to sit us all. As I went to inquiry about our wait time after a 25 min wait, I was told by the manager Robert that there was a party of 11 ahead of us as well as several other parties waiting to be seated, and it would still be an "hour plus plus" of a wait. I said okay and returned to my party. When we checked the app, there were only 3 party's ahead of us. 2 parties of 2 and a party of 6. I returned to the desk and spoke with Robert once again trying to get an understanding on why it would be an "hour plus plus" wait time when only 3 parties were ahead of us. Robert didn't like that I called him out on his lie. Robert proceeded to call me out of my name and say "I will not serve a b*tch, and you can get out of my restaurant". Our family was extremely upset regarding this encounter, and one went to speak with him again. Robert than called me a liar. He must not like the truth being called out on him. Because he didn't indeed call me that haha. Anywho, this manager is completely unacceptable and should be in NO position to be in any hospitality job if he can not handle people or any situations. A managers job is to handle escalations and he does not have the capacity to be able to do so. He is extremely rude to everyone we encounter and we were not the only family who was treated this way. I would 10000% NOT recommend until a new manager is in position here. I will also be filing a corporate complaint with the owners the Luana Hospitality Group as this experience was unacceptable and unprofessional.
