    Wide variety of local snacks, samurai ice type soft serve, uncle ice cream sandwiches, Italian sodas, specialty sodas even made with energy drinks. Small shop in Waipahu. But enough parking. Often with younger staff you'd expect sub par service but these young men were very eager to help and serve us.

    Dessert in Waipahu, Oahu, Hawaii... After lunch, my friends asked that same question: "Where's Dessert?" We looked on our Yelp apps and found Rajah Dat. It was a few doors down from where we were! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Located at the Shops at West Loch Station, the only downside was that no restroom was available. I had to walk down the stairs and across the street to McDonald's... LOL![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]The upside was nice air conditioning, friendly service, and some barstool seats inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Outside, there's a bench for those who are vertically challenged... sorry![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got a Rainbow shave ice with three flavors: grape, Tiger's blood, and pineapple. It turned out larger than expected. I had brain freeze! I couldn't finish! Haha! Thank you, Gabriel, for a refreshing summer treat!

    After having lunch at 808 Hawaiian BBQ with friends on a state holiday, it was too early to part ways so we decided to get some dessert. We were at West Loch Station and as we looked up, we noticed Rajah Dat Snack Shop (RDSS) that also cold sweet treats. We were already parked so all we had to do was walk over. RDSS is a chain of snack shops that is located on West Oahu with this original location opening in late 2021 and have expanded to stores in Kapolei and Wahiawa. You can get your local snack fix, as well as poke bowls and cold treats and drinks here. They have shave ice, samurai soft serve but my eyes landed on Dippin' Dots, something I haven't had in YEARS. 3 of my friends got the soft serve, 1 got the shave ice and I ordered dots. We enjoyed our cool treats. I just loved my Dippin' Dots. So much fun to eat and so delicious. I got mint chocolate and cookies and cream. As it was a warm day, majority of us sat on their stools and ate away. However, one of our friends found the stool too tall so she went outside and ate her soft serve on the bench. Service was above average as the 2 male staff were courteous and patient as some of our friends had a difficult time deciding what to get. While checking out their snacks, one member of our group noticed a rice snack with an expiration date 1 day away. This was alarming because you question their inventory monitoring. Overall, a great first experience at RDSS where I'd be game to patronize them again. However, all 3 locations are in West Oahu. I won't be making a special trip from town to go to RDSS but would be game to go if I'm already in that area. 2024 #75

    After lunch we decided to try Raja Dat Snack Shop. It's in the same strip mall which 808 Hawaii BBQ is at. They had Dippin Dots Ice cream as one of their selections. Didn't know that that brand still existed. Paul C had that. Nadine for the shaved ice with three toppings. My wife, and I had the soft serve. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Friendly service , but limited seating.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We all enjoyed ourselves. Chec them out if you're in the area. Enjoy

    Located in the same shopping complex as Hou Fish Market and decided to get the Birthday girl her ice cream and notice this place. The owner is a local guy running a family business and he carries a lot of great local favorites made by local vendors that he let them place their products in his store on consignment bases. He has a large variety of local pupus and snacks and healthy drinks and other items a plus to check out. Friendly and helpful you should stop by!

    A fun local snack shop in Waipahu! Came here because they serve samurai-style sherbet, but unfortunately they didn't have it up and running when we visited. We got the pre-packaged one instead. We used a coupon for shave ice we saw in the Midweek. The keiki sized one is pretty generous! The syrups used are quite fair and not as tasty as Waiola or Ululani's. Great selection of local snacks and desserts. However, many items are not sticker priced or had prices displayed. It deterred me from buying anything since I didn't want to ask how much everything was. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance though was great with fun, upbeat local music and a small area to sit and eat.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We will come back probably only for the sherbert.

    I think I just found my favorite snack store! Close to our home and the customer service here is great. They are so nice and very patient. My kids do take a long time to order and to decide so I appreciate when people are patient with us lol. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Super clean inside.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great atmosphere very welcoming.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I can't wait to try things like the Poké bowls and more of their other snacks!

    Never knew this place was located by Pizza hut and Mannys bakeshop in waipahu. Lots of eateries here. After we all had lunch we were looking for a place to have dessert. Came across this place. They sell snacks, shave ice, soft serve, and some refrigerated desserts. Paul C had a cup of dipping dots ice cream, I had soft serve as well as Peter Y, and Gabe. Auntie Nadine had shave ice. Thank you Gabe for the treat. Was very refreshing and alot they gave on the soft serve, shave ice was plentiful as well as the Dippin dots Paul C ordered. All ordered small size and boy it was plentiful. If you in the waipahu area and close to Don Quiote, Mcdonalds they're in that small strip mall.

    We came for da snacks. It was our first time here so we had no idea what we were in store for when we decided to order a large shave ice when they say larger, they really mean extra large lol. It was bigger than my head we loved that it didn't melt right away, other shave ice places we've tried tend to liquify as soon as it gets into our hands. We also ordered the premium popcorn. Freshly popped, the best! The only thing that was a bit confusing that snacks out on the floor didn't have prices.

    This place got everything!

    Was walking by after lunch. Saw this snack shop along with a few other other dessert places nearby. This place stands out because it has everything! Every kind snack you can think of from candy, boiled peanuts, smoked ika, assorted popcorn, Hawaiian Frost soft serve, Dippin Dots ice cream, shave ice, assorted tea drinks to food items like poke bowls and plate lunches! I got the candy popcorn that was stacked on the counter. Tasted ok but I should have ordered the customized popcorn options. The guy working there (manager or owner) was friendly and told me about the pop up Makeke event tomorrow in the parking lot with several vendors (see poster). Place looks new and clean. Definitely got to come back to try other things.

    Leizelle S.

    Bright and welcoming snack shop located in Waipahu! The lady that helped me was amiable. She was funny! I absolutely loved her energy. They have a LOT in this little shop. There's a bunch of snacks, both sweet and savory. They got Samurai soft serve, Dip n Dots, and Shave ice. They also have drinks and food. I got to try 2 out of the 3 types of poke they have. All of their poke is made to order. The ahi was fresh, and in big pieces. The sauces were perfect, and they don't play with the serving size. I did not expect much from a small shop. I was genuinely surprised. Definitely will go back to try some drinks and snacks. (Most likely get more poke too...)

    Like most snacks shops here on the island you'll find an array of local seeds and gummy snacks. They also make assorted local flavored popcorns We went there to cool off with their twisted soft serve ice cream. There were only two choices, lychee and strawberry and pineapple and haupia. Not a fan of either combinations. We chose the lychee, strawberry. I was I little disappointed as I was expecting it in a cone, but wasn't given a choice. The presentation was a little sloppy, yet acceptable. The lychee flavor dominated to the point where I couldn't taste anything else. It was a bit too icy in texture for my liking. Staff was helpful asking if we were ready a few times. The mall that they are in has ample parking. In all, I'd probably go back for the snacks.

I know I've passed it many times on the way to Makaha beach and Pray for Sets. A friend had recommended this place and since we were close by, we decided to drop in.

The ratio of syrup to ice is just right - it was not overly sweet like some other places. Prices are also SUPER reasonable compared to other tourist places. They also sell aloha wear and accessories, making this place a one stop shop for all your local needs.
