My daughter had a birthday party with about 30 guests. I contacted Aloha Munchies and they came out…read morewith their machine and made shave ice for all the guests, as well as the parents that were dropping them off and picking them up. They had about 15 or so flavors and lots of toppings. The shave ice was delicious. The price was reasonable and well worth it. The staff was friendly and professional. They were punctual and their equipment was clean.

I would NEVER go back to this place. If you are a person of color or someone with dark skin, DO NOT…read morego. Today, I went with my friend and asked the female worker what a "Hawaiian snow cone" was. She mentioned a topping, so I asked further, "What kind of topping?" She replied that it was condensed milk. I said "Oh," and ordered a small shaved ice. As she handed me my order, she looked at her male coworker and said, "Es por eso que no me gusta servir a las morenas." (Note: Morenas can mean brunette, but in other contexts, it refers to dark-skinned people. I am a Black woman.) I didn't understand what was said, so I thanked her and left. However, my friend, who speaks Spanish, overheard the remark and said "Muchas gracias" to let them know she understood. The male worker then smiled at us. As we walked away, my friend explained what the female worker had said, which translates to, "That's why I don't like serving dark-skinned women." Shocked, I decided to go back and address the situation. When we returned, the woman refused to come to the window, so my friend asked the male worker to get her. When she finally came out, I calmly asked her what I had done to upset her. She claimed she didn't understand English. At that point, I had my friend translate the conversation. I told her I was shocked that she would say something like that in front of a customer. I explained that we live in a diverse community, and it's upsetting to hear such remarks, especially when I had done nothing wrong. Her first excuse was that there was a language barrier, which was why she made the comment. I responded that the interaction had lasted only two minutes, during which I asked just two questions. I explained that I understood her point, but asked if she realized how her words could be taken to mean she didn't like serving dark-skinned people, not just people who don't speak Spanish. She then claimed she was joking. I told her I didn't find it funny, and I didn't think anyone else would either. You shouldn't speak negatively about a customer in front of them--if you're going to make such a joke, say it when they're gone. Her next excuse was that she didn't remember saying anything. At that point, I walked away because it was clear the conversation was going nowhere. I didn't record the encounter because I wanted to have an open discussion and give her a chance to learn from this. However, it felt like a lost cause. To have her never once apologize or say, "I didn't mean for my comment to make you feel this way" shows that she simply doesn't care. I hope this experience makes her think twice about what she says in front of people. So, unless you are a light-skinned Spanish speaker, I strongly recommend you avoid this place.

We stopped by this place on a whim and really enjoyed the experience. The prices were reasonable,…read morethe sizes we got were adequate and the rainbow shaved ice I got was delicious. I loved the seating area they had - a couple of benches and rocking chairs sitting in the shade. They also had a place to wash your hands and/or use hand sanitizer for folks who don't wish to participate in the current pandemic. There is also a chalkboard if you have kids or anyone who wants to advertise their messages of peace and love on the board or sidewalk. It looked like these were college kids running this operation - all cute and upbeat with smiling faces, and there was nice music to dance to while waiting in line. Anytime I'm in the area again, I'll definitely stop off so I can try more of their flavors. A great place to get a nice little treat on a hot day. And make sure to leave the workers a nice tip - they deserve it!!

If you are used to snoball ice this is a little different its very creamy and very reminiscent of ice cream while still having the light texture of shaved ice. It is definitely something you have to experience for yourself. I enjoyed the variety of topping options they had, I was able to get mochi and flan as my toppings while my partner got wafer cookies and oreos. The workers there were nice and patient as we chose our flavors and perused the menu. The store itself is located in a food hall which lends itself to have a variety of seating options. Its a nice entertaining area with a fun projector area playing shows. Great place to hang out overall.

All the dye and junk in all the other local trucks drive me crazy. Not only is Kotei kids healthier but all their flavors are super unique and awesome.

Jackie was a pleasure to work with and her husband did an amazing job pulling the truck into my crazy steep court. They made an extra special large ice for my daughter and she was so happy. I would definitely book them again.

Since we knew they were coming we actually got to enjoy our sons party and had much less stress than we typically would have when it came to planning the treats for the party. Our guests raved about the ice and since they're organic and vegan with no artificial dyes there was no guilt in what we were serving all of the kids! Our son has a severe egg allergy and this was a much better solution to hosting an allergen free party that everyone could enjoy. If you have an allergen kid or are inviting friends with allergies I cannot reccomend them enough as a delicious low stress choice. Kotei ice was easy to work with, quick to respond and they were so fast in serving our guests at the party! We will definitely have them at our future parties! Trust me, skip the artificial snow cone trucks. You want Kotei ice!
