You can get the artificial flavors like cotton candy but try the real fruit syrups here. Yum! There is usually a long line but the ling goes fairly fast. It's worth the wait. The staff is friendly. The restaurant has tables outside to enjoy your treats. We loved this shave ice place with real fruit juices.

Positive: Really quick and friendly service. Lots of options of shaved ice and other desserts. I…read morewould definitely come back here again for the shaved ice. Mochi pieces were big and flavors of shaved ice really popped. Came back here for a second time and the shaved ice was better the second time around. Needs of improvement: Shaved ice is not fully shaved, there were chunks of ice still within the dessert the first time we came here. Also, shaved ice is not as big as Matsumoto's in Oahu.

Really good and delicious shave ice! We were craving some ice because why not when you're in Hawaii…read moreand this place was super close to where we were staying and we checked it out. Staff very friendly and knowledgeable! Because I am dairy free I was so happy to see that they had a coconut milk option instead of condensed milk and I was really excited! Please be warned that the sizes are huge and so I got the kids size and that still was plenty! Prices are what you would expect in this area. $9 for regular and $7.50 for kids. I got the rainbow and it was so good and yummy. There's no seating inside, but there's a lot of seating outside. Cute ambience inside We are for sure coming back here again before our trip ends!

We tried Gecko Girls for the first time in Waikoloa Village, and it turned out to be such a fun…read moresurprise! We stumbled across it when the food court was closed--so yes, shaved ice for dinner... and honestly, no regrets at all. My daughter got the rainbow, my husband went with the lava flow, and I had the cherry blossom. All three were absolutely fantastic--super flavorful, perfectly shaved ice, and really refreshing after a long day. The staff was friendly, the portions were generous, and the flavors tasted fresh and vibrant--not overly sugary like some places. It ended up being one of those unexpected highlights of our trip. Highly recommend if you're in the area and want a cool treat (even if it ends up being dinner )!

Hannah has this spot rocking and it's not just because of the traffic flying by that shakes the cart. She's patient, funny, and LOVES this work. The staff in there are working with a fryer, and it's hot. I could see sweat on Hannah's face. She still had a smile and was willing to chat. Great service all around! The new item is Dubai chocolate malasada! It's an added $7 more for this trendy treat. Hannah showed me the pistachio cream filling used and the type of chocolate bar with a thick layer of crispy bits, it's all imported. This is the legit stuff. Minimum Malasada purchase is three and you won't be disappointed if you have to eat more than planned. Hannah made sure I got napkins because she knew what was about to go down. I definitely got the holy trinity if haupia, guava, and lilikoi. It's a must! I tried it without a sugar dusting and I think I'll go back to the sugar, why not.

Stopped by the Waikoloa location for a quick snack after a long day at the pool. First impression…read morewalking in was really good -- the place is clean, modern, and has a nice family-friendly vibe. Good music playing, plenty of seating, and overall a relaxing atmosphere. I ordered the Blue Hawaiian/Strawberry Swirl, a root beer float, and mint chocolate chip loaded with candy toppings. Everything tasted really good and the ice cream itself was super flavorful. My only small complaint is the extra charge for each topping. Paying $0.50 per topping can add up pretty quickly. A couple other minor things: the lights kept turning off because of the motion sensors, and the young lady at the counter didn't seem very enthusiastic about helping explain the ordering process after we mentioned it was our first time there. The interaction felt a little rushed. That said, the ice cream was definitely good enough for me to come back again while I'm on the island for the next few days. Overall, still a solid spot to check out. Aloha!
