    There was a slight line but staff were sufficient the wait was not long I recommended adding condensed milk to rainbow (strawberry vanilla & banana)

    Lahaina Shave Ice - House of the Sun

    We got the House of the Sun with red bean, ice cream, and mochi toppings. This was such a tasty treat. My favorite was the blue shaved ice (blue hawaii) - it reminds me of cotton candy but less artificial/sweet tasting. The other two flavors, lime and guava, were tasty too. Loved the combination of flavors and toppings we got. Generous portion too.

    I saw this cute little dessert store next to the steak house next door. The girls were the sweetest helping me out with the ones to pick and what they recommend. It's shaved ice and it's so good. I got the black milk tea with ice cream and the smallest one, as I was by myself. It's really delicious and a nice treat, almost like the best black milk tea I've ever had. I couldn't finish it, so it's definitely made for two people. I was able to catch the sunset and enjoy my food and treat. I definitely recommend this place, it's so good never had anything like it. The girls were awesome and the vibes are pretty chill. I'm in HNL once a month and will be back.

    Kind of a weird location. It is located at the entrance of a parking garage so everyone was like watch out guys, be careful, move!, etc. We stopped in after having dinner at Ginza which was like two doors down. They have an extensive menu of flavors and the portions are huge. The young ladies working that evening were nice. Took a little while to get them and there's no seating area. You just have to stand on the side of the street and hope to not get run over. The texture of the ice was not as fine as other places. Reminded me more of a snow cone. The flavors were just ok although, the mochi was good. My brother loves it, but it just wasn't my favorite place for shave ice. I would most likely skip it next time even though I will be back for Ginza!

    Came here for some shaved ice as it was just steps from our hotel, is said to be one of the best shaved ice spots on the island, and my brother comes here whenever he visits Waikiki and swears by it. So, since it was a hot day, what better way to cool down than enjoy a nice shaved ice dessert you can actually enjoy any time of the day or night. This place is not exactly easy to find as it doesn't stick out like a sore thumb, but once you do find it, you'd probably never expect it to look like a small parking garage's ticketing office...well, it probably was. Anyway, we went ahead and ordered one shaved ice with matcha flavor, with mochi balls, and extra scoops of azuki (red beans)....just because we really love our red beans! And, we also ordered a more colorful shaved ice with matcha, mango, and strawberry flavors and topped with azuki red beans too. Yup, there's a good reason why they say that this is one of the best spots for shaved ice.....the shaved ice is nice and fine and stacked tall in the small bowl, with your choice of flavors poured down the side till soaked into the ice. Wow.....a small spoon of flavored shaved ice, witha small scoop of red beans really hit the spot! Too bad this place is literally a hole-in-the-wall take away place only, so you either stand around and eat it (away from the main driveway) at the side, or wherever else you can find to sit and enjoy it as there are no chairs or tables here. I must admit that I am not a sweet tooth, and trying to cut down on sweet syrupy stuff, but this shaved ice was really good, and it reminded me of my childhood days....when my waistline and sugar intake wasn't a big concern :S

    The kids shaved ice. It was as big as my head

    Saw this place on TikTok and knew I had to try it. It was pretty easy to locate, but can also be easily missed if you're not looking. Nestled at the entrance of a parking lot, Lahaina Shave Ice sits proudly and boasts a humble existence. Staff were super friendly and helping me pick out my flavors and even made some choices for me. I ended up getting the kids sized (keiki) shaved ice with lychee and passion fruit with ice cream and snow cap (pick the condensed coconut cream vs condensed milk). It was pretty good and hit the spot with the evening being so humid and warm. Would definitely return

    Lahaina Shave Ice is an unsuspecting location for some great shave ice. We walked to it and it wasn't too far from the restaurant we were at. It's located in this parking lot, so it was easy to miss. They offered different flavors, flavor combinations, and sizes. We got the Tiger's blood and Lava Flow both in keiki size. This didn't look like a keiki size because it was huge! Our family couldn't even finish it! We loved the condensed milk and soft ice. It definitely filled out shave ice craving. There is no seating outside so you have to find somewhere to sit. It sucked having to walk with our shave ice slowly melting. Thankfully we weren't far from a Starbucks and sat over there.

    A mountain of shaved ice and they even had raspberry which is somewhat hard to find in shaved ice. Very delicious

    Popular shaved ice spot located near a parking garage that's just take out, shorter hours and accepts cards too. My friends got tutti frutti with mochi and one in a melon with jelly. Nice to share, good quality shaved ice and condensed milk, mochi was goo and they give you a straw to also drink but I felt like the end of our shaved ice was very syrup-y. I think I remember some ice cream at the bottom but I felt like this shaved ice was more of your snow cone type with syrup on the bottom. Lots of different flavors and options to choose from. Sometimes there are lines and no where to really eat sit and eat, we had to walk the strip while eating and sharing. Parking is probably hard too unless you're staying at a hotel nearby, if not there's probably hotel parking.

    Strange location where the ordering window is in an active driveway. Staff seemed to be burnt out from telling patrons they shouldn't stand in front of the window to look at the menu and were not so friendly. Their keiki size was quite large. Unique hupia snow cap but they seems to be a bit stingy on that topping. No tables or seats to eat at.

    This tiny kiosk is underground in a parking lot. The service was quick and the shaved ice was really delicious. It was hard to order, there were multiple menus and add ons I missed until after I had ordered. Note it is a pick-up only location. It is two blocks away from the beach so that was nice!

    ORDER thai tea, green tea/matcha, ube (4/5) very very big portions!! my biggest complaint is the tiny bowl for such a big portion. the bowl ended up getting soggy and the shave ice tipped over :') aside from that... very yummy!! SERVICE very quick and accommodating. AMBIANCE id definitely recommend walking here... street parking is really limited. no seats.

    This is a decent shaved ice place. Literally shaved ice store on every street. This place had homemade mochi and tons of sauce options which makes it special! Only offers 2 sizes (small and medium).

    Lychee, banana, blue Hawaii with condensed milk, ice cream and mochi

    Situated right off the parking lot before entering the Ala Moana food court. We skipped it at first…read morethen decided to try it after everyone was done eating inside. On the way back to the car we saw it again and decided to try the Strawberry Bingsu. Our party shared the bowl and loved it so much we decided to also try the Mango Bingsu. It was the perfect amount of fruits and sweetness to cool us down in the muggy afternoon weather. Good service. Clean dining area. Cute decor. Wish we had more time to try other desserts but we will definitely visit again when we're back in town!

    Good: Ordering is easy using a kiosk which provided clear instructions to the user. Quick service,…read moreeven near closing. At 8:30 pm, the place was packed, which is a great sign. Standard generous portion for a bingsu location, notably generous for an Ala Moana location. The location itself was free of insects despite being on a ground floor location with sugary desserts everywhere. Meh: The $14 (including 15% tip) dessert tasted too light and ice-like and appeared more translucent (rather than opaque white) than expected, leading me to think the milk was watered down, which may be how the establishment can make up the cost for the portion size while maintaining a spot in Ala Moana, especially given milk prices in Hawai'i, even if you're buying from Costco or direct from farmers. Also, tables were not cleaned after each party departed; that transparent puddle on your table might not be condensation and may instead be drool drops from the toddler who sat there before you. Overall: Good (not outstanding) experience. Knocked off 2 stars for combination of suspected diluted milk + unclean tables.

So I looked on Yelp and was able to find this location of Uluani's which, while close to Waikiki, is not in the chaos of Waikiki. In any case, for my shave ice on this day I went with an ulu and chose lilikoi and coconut as my two flavors. My father also went with an ulu and chose grape, lime, and coconut as his flavors. The ice here was shaved super thin and, as usual, I loved the flavors. The coconut at Uluani's is creamy with a nice coconut flavor while the lilikoi is both sharp and sweet, which makes for a great combo. My father also enjoyed his combination, which included flavors I had never tried from Uluani's before. The bottom line for me is that I would head back here again in the future. As I have stated in other reviews before, I consider Uluani's to be the standard for shave ice and this visit only reinforced that.

    Not for us! Have…read morebeen ordering shave ice almost all my life and the people behind the counter were confused on what I was ordering... strange!
