Melt in your mouth shave ice!!! Omg! This is by far THE BEST shave ice that I have had ever in Oahu! Service is also quick and you get your shave ice in no time. The place is like a food truck/stand. It is right by Petco. Great location as you can also stop by Leonard's Bakery to get your sweet fix before, during, or after you shop the shops around this outlet mall. I am soooo glad that one of my local friends recommended this place to me! I'll definitely be going to Mountain Magic Shave Ice every time I'm visiting Oahu! read more

My wife is quite the shave ice snob and claims this is the best on island. The ice is so powdery like snow that I'm glad we don't live closer as I'd go broke with her recurring visits. Shave ice is shave ice to me but I'll admit I do see the powderiness of the ice in comparison to other locations to appreciate the difference now. Situated in a food truck or shack along with others in this shopping plaza, it's a must visit if you appreciate shave ice. My wife said the lady who owns it used to be rather rude when ordering but has since chilled in recent visits. I guess you have to appreciate the ice in order to continue to go to someone who is seemingly rude. I didn't experience this but be prepared. I had the creamsicle shave ice which appears to be a house flavor. Reading the boards, I was a little overwhelmed with what is what and what it costs. I just picked something. I kept getting brain freezes to where I was done about halfway. The ice seemed to hold up for awhile and not melt too quickly which I did appreciate to prolong the experience. Cash only so be prepared. read more

Mountain Magic Shave Ice - Shaved Ice Near Me - Waipahu, Hawaii

This spot is underrated but has been my all time favorite shave ice spot since I was a kid. The ice is so so soft and they have a large variety of flavored syrups to choose from. Don't forget that they are cash only! read more

Mountain Magic Shave Ice - Medium-sized shave ice - Shaved Ice Near Me - Waipahu, Hawaii

CASH ONLY** This place has been in waikele for as long as I can remember. They used to sell their shaved ice in flower shaped cones. Whenever we couldn't go to Matsumoto, which was my number one spot, this was the place to go. Over the years, many things have changed- such as the quality of the shaved ice itself. If I were to rate my shaved ice spots, this one surely takes the win. I've recently had a shaved ice craving when I made a visit back home this summer and literally visited all my shaved ice spots. Ended it with mountain magic and it's time to leave my review. The ice literally MELTS, in your mouth. It's very hard to describe the texture of the ice because if I say it's creamy and buttery- you'll think I'm weird. It's just something you have to try out yourself. They have so many yummy flavors to choose from, even some island flavors that is- I think a dollar more. My usual order consists of ice cream, snow cap, and tigers blood. I don't really know what tigers blood is exactly. I just know that has been the flavor I've been getting for YEARS. When I want to switch things up, I get the haupia cream? I think that's what it was. I just know it was haupia. And just recently (06/2023) they let me try their ube snow cap- which was AMAZING! They coat their ice with a lot of syrup- but not overpowering or sweet. The staff are nice and friendly. If it's a long line, then expect a wait. But it is definitely worth it. Bust out a few chairs and hang out in the parking lot :))) read more

Mountain Magic Shave Ice - Ube and Taro snow cap - Shaved Ice Near Me - Waipahu, Hawaii

We love some good authentic shave ice! Not only are the prices great, there is a HUGE variety of flavors to choose from to mix and match. Myself, my boyfriend, and his sister decided to share a large ($6) and each choose a flavor. We chose lilikoi, mango, and guava. The end result was a gorgeous sunset color, a definite bonus! It came out quickly with extra spoons upon request, which are wood (boyfriend wasn't a huge fan of the wood texture). The ice texture was so soft and absolutely perfect. The mixture of tropical flavors also made for a really delicious blend. Workers are friendly and efficient. The line of trucks and stands really is some of the best! read more

Mountain Magic Shave Ice - Shaved Ice Near Me - Waipahu, Hawaii

We were on the west side of the island and wanted to get some shaved ice as a treat. I found a spot on yelp and I had to try it. It is at the very end of a shopping center where a few other booths are located. They have a cash only sign so be prepared. They have a few different sizes, the Keiki 4.50, small, medium, to a large at $7.00. we could've shared a large between three of us but we wanted our own flavors. I ended up getting a Keiki for each of us and it was the perfect size. I must say the ice is super smooth and soft. It practically melts in your mouth and each scoop of the ice is full of flavor. You definitely have to get it with the cream as it adds a perfect sweetness to it. My husband didn't like the cream because he thought it was weird to have condensed milk on top, lol. I definitely recommend this spot. read more

So glad I finally made it out here and it did not disappoint. So many awesome flavors including some natural/clear syrups too. All the addon options available like ice cream, snow cap, li hing powder, azuki, etc. What separates this from the average shave ice is the texture. The ice is shaved very fine. When certain syrups are combined with this ice, the consistency is somewhere between an icee and a shake but unique and better than either. Next to Petco near Old Navy. Look for the other food trucks. No seating here so find a place to enjoy. read more

So ono! Can't believe I haven't been here...what's da matta wit me?! A small enclosed outdoor kiosk next door to Petco in Waikele Center, there is ample amount of parking, but no real place to sit down and enjoy the sugar rush. Very local...thank God! I don't think the tourists come flooding this way... ~ Shave Ice: Matcha Cream, Taro Cream & Lychee Cream w/ Mochi & Snowcap - 5/5. Probably one of the top Shave Ice spots on the Island. These ratings do not lie. Good size portions, friendly staff, brilliant texture, not too sweet and a very healthy selection of flavors. What's not to like? Well...the plastic cup that it's served in...NOT environmentally friendly. I hope they do change that. CASH ONLY read more

I've tried all the big named shave ice shops on the island. They're all great, but have you had Mountain Magic? For some fantastic reason, the syrup here is just the right amount of sweetness. Most others' syrups are too sweet to enjoy fully and I'm often left with a headache after. I get the regular size here and share it with one person. You can choose three flavors. I've tried the mango, strawberry, strawberry cream, lychee, and POG. You must get the vanilla ice cream on the bottom, snow capped with condensed milk, then Mochi on top. All for under $8. Located in the Waikele parking lot by the H1 along the fence. read more

Reminder to self, it's "Mountain Magic" NOT "Magic Mountain" NOR is it "Magic Mike"... Yet, if you saw Magic Mike, you may need to get some shave ice afterwards. Cuz you know, Channing Tatum is fiya! But guaranteez I'm going to call it "Magic Mountain Shave Ice" in the future *face palm*. The fam was craving shave ice but we weren't about to drive to Haleiwa or to town...but thanks to Yelp we found Mountain Magic! I've heard of them in the past but never had the chance to go! They're located with the other food trucks next to Petco in Waikele. MM is cash only so be sure to bring! If not, you gotta go Safeway for an ATM. Also, it didn't seem like there were trash cans nearby, so don't go throwing your trash any ol' place! First up - the texture of the ice 100% legit! The ice is so smooth! Not coarse and crunchy like some other places. I'd say it melts in your mouth..but duh, it's ice LOL. It's seriously smooth though. Flavor - I had the creamy rainbow (vanilla, banana and strawberry). It was pretty good. It may have been because of the condense milk, but it didn't seem that creamy to me. The strawberry though did remind me of the syrup for the juice that you see in jugs. Pile on the mochi! They are NOT stingy with the mochi! I love it! Some places only give you a couple, but I kept finding more and more in my cup! I wish small kine that there was a little more ice cream, but it was just right. Overall, it was a great experience! I'll be sure to visit Magic Mountain again in the future ;) jk Mountain Magic. They're magical~ read more

I love getting melona and coconut as flavors. read more

Third stop for shave ice in Hawaii. And so far, ranked #2. #1 Vintage island shave ice #2 Mountain magic shave ice #3 Uncle Clay's shave ice The ice here is soft and creamy, and the flavors were strong while not overly sweet. Ordered the li hing (per worker's suggestion), lilikoi, and mango. I couldn't tell which flavor I was eating but they were all so refreshing and delicious. The fruit syrups tasted natural and mixed well together. Also added condensed milk and mochi, which my husband loved ("how do they make their mochi taste like this?"). It was a very solid choice for shave ice. Will come back if I'm in the area. read more

I remember the days where the Shave Ice was in a little hut right outside of Old Navy. I'm so glad that they are still at Waikele and numerous Food Trucks are now in a common area. My fiancé always comes here when she craves shave ice, and my niece loves this place. My cousins and I came here after enjoying lunch at Genki's Sushi. It was quite busy, since it was a hot Sunday. A lot of families were lined up to get their kids some shave ice as well as for the adults too. I love that this place is always having new flavors and specials. There are three different sizes, Keiki, Medium, and Large. The Keiki size is enough for me and even to share as they do serve a lot. I ended up getting Taro and Blue Vanilla. It was a perfect mix. The syrups are super good and they don't over drown the ice. The ice is also fine and soft so it melts in your mouth. I usually get my shave ice with ice cream and snow capped (condensed milk topping). They have many toppings to choose from even mochi balls. Not to worry, I took a bite from my cousins orders just to taste some of the differnt flavors. They had a new flavor Horchata, it was so yummy. Can't go wrong with their Shave Ice, and their staff is always friendly even when they are busy. read more

Hello all...me and my girls wanted some shave ice on warm sunny day and decided to hit up the Mountain Magic. The girls and I loved it! I got the pina colada with a scoop of vanilla ice cream topped with a snow cap (Condensed milk). It was soooo good. The milk makes the shave ice so creamy. When you get to the bottom you get the local vanilla ice cream that goes so well with the shave ice. My daughter got the rainbow shave ice with vanilla ice cream at the bottom. She really liked it...that's all I could get out of her? I did snag a bite of one of the flavors. It was the blue vanilla, I loved it. I am definitely going to get the blue vanilla the next time we visit. They were very friendly and patient while my kids were deciding what to eat. Make sure you bring cash, because that is all they accept. It is a food truck, but there are no picnic tables to sit at to eat. So you either have to stand or sit in your car to eat it. There are a few other food trucks lined up with it so you can grab lunch then desert from Mountain Magic! read more

Delicious!!! Staff super friendly... loved their horchata flavor!! I think they are better than Matsumoto and shorter wait time and closer to Honolulu read more

Cash only. Been here only once after the range and its solid place to get shave ice. The ice is very smooth and the flavors that I had "Guava, Haupia and Horchata" were decent. Ice cream topping was good and fresh, didnt have the freezer burn. Mochi topping was interesting, I don't remember the last time I had a "wet" mochi topping on my shave ice. I don't know any other shave ice places in that area but its def worth a visit if your near. The service here is good, the syrups I had tasted kinda ok but the texture of the ice is what sells it. Very nice shave on the ice lol. If you ever in town I def recommend Ululanis Shave ice and Waiola Shave Ice. Both are my favorites so far. read more

If you are looking for ultra fine shave ice that melts in your mouth and flavored syrups that pack a HUGE punch, look no further. This place is legit! I love their mochi ball toppings! The strawberry cream had great strawberry notes and my son loved his grape. Prices are a little high for shave ice but you will definitely leave satisfied. read more

The #1 shave ice on island has always been Mountain Magic for me. I have so many memories coming here with after gymnastics practice for a sweet treat. The ice instantly melts in your mouth because it's so soft! I always go for snow cap and mochi on top. Never disappoints! They also have a to go cup option (a white styrofoam cup) which I highly recommend. It's a lot easier and neater to eat it that way! read more

BRING CASH. It was good, nostalgic shave ice. Classic, sweet artificial flavors and toppings like ice cream and mochi. I liked the gummy bear flavor. Service was little bit slow but prob bc it was so busy when we went. Nowhere to sit (as with any stand/truck) so we sat in the trunk of gf's car to eat. The large size was huge. We couldn't finish it between us. Theres a bunch of other good food trucks nearby. Get something for dinner too if you drove far like we did. DONT FORGET BRING CASH. $12 for the large with all kine toppings like we got but the medium ($8) would have been enough for us. read more

Mountain Magic Shave Ice occupies the enviable spot right next to Leonard's booth at Waikele. The small booth has several lists of flavors, including common flavors such as root beer and strawberry, as well as less common local flavors like tamarind and li hing. We ordered a couple of keiki cups, mine with root beer and cotton candy, my wife's with tamarind and lychee. The wait was short and the staff friendly, and we were soon enjoying the shave ice in the shade of a nearby tree. The first impression was that the servings were large and colorful. Our 2 year-old niece appropriated the lychee and tamarind, and she absolutely loved it. We all managed to taste it before she claimed ownership, and both flavors were great. The lychee was sweet and light, although it fell short of the homemade lychee at Waiola Shave Ice. The tamarind had the perfect balance of sweet and tart, and it was my favorite flavor. In contrast, the root beer and cotton candy were more sweet than they were flavorful. As this was our first visit, I wasn't too disappointed that I picked flavors that weren't the best of this particular spot. The ice was smooth, and the syrup was plentiful (you might want to ask for a lighter pour of syrup unless you like your shave ice super sweet). We'll be back soon, and I'll keep searching to find the flavors that put the magic in Mountain Magic Shave Ice. read more

This is NOT for their shave ice, but for not being open when their website (and their phone message) said they'd be open.

Please, at least change your phone message to say you're closed if you're not going to be there! Big disappointment! read more

It's so amazing. Their shave ice is so good and fine. What makes it better is their flavors. So many options for everyone. I got creamy vanilla and tiger's blood (strawberry coconut). The creamy vanilla was good. Tastes exactly how it sounds. With the snow cap on top which is condensed milk on top, so good! Cant forget about the mochi. Not hard and not too chewy. Just right. My favorite spot for shave ice! Theres also different food trucks in the area, so if you come to this spot don't forget to pick up your shave ice dessert after! You won't be disappointed. read more
