Delicious shave ice and love that they use natural everything. No artificial colors or flavors. We got the mango and passion fruit flavors and both were delicious. Love the addition of coconut cream and fresh fruit. Very expensive but so are all the other shave ice places. read more

Stopped here after a day on the boat! This was very much needed and so fresh refreshing! I got the guava and passion fruit flavor and I think it was actual fruit! Delicious! Wonderful service and very accommodating. We sat outside the warehouse in the shade, which was perfect! read more

Genuinely the best shaved ice on the island. It's in a cute shopping center and the lady making the shaved ice was so kind and easy to talk to. Highly recommend!! read more

The coconut cream on top here is a real standout--it pairs perfectly with their shave ice, and we all wanted more! The syrups were also delicious and not too sweet. I never thought I'd say this, but I've finally found a shave ice I like even better than Uluani's, and it's on Kauai at a food truck! read more

This shave ice was beyond awesome!!! The taste, presentation, service! 10/10 So fresh, clean, flavorful! If you get a chance, please check it out read more

As a family, we are always curating and adding to our favorite foods lists and one of them is the best shave ice places in Hawaii. Waikomo makes the list for sure. They serve a very delicious version with natural ingredients creating a unique flavor profile. It veers on the healthy side of shave ice desserts. We shared a guava and passion fruit with a coconut cream topping with fresh bits of fruit (pineapple pieces). We added the option of Mac nut ice cream which made it extra delicious. Service was friendly and speedy despite the line. And the tables in the jungle setting was super unique. Would go again and highly recommend! read more

Probably our top place this trip to the island. Very fine shave and great flavors. And it's right next to a handful of fun and cut mom/pop stores. And a really cute gecko kept us company while we ate. read more

Having 4 of the shaved ice spots thus far on the trip, Waikomo shave ice takes the crown! (I wil update if anything changes in the next three days . Located in front of the warehouse shopping center. Ordered mango and calamansi (contrasting flavors ). With Mac nut ice cream of course. Condensed milk and toppings Syrup flavors tasted like real fruit and delicious. Neither overly sweet , nor artificial sweeteners. Definitely a winner . Highly recommend it read more

Such a great, little side trip down the road from Poipu. The flavors are amazing and all natural. Highly recommend the calamansi and coconut combo. I've put this as my top shave ice of the trip to Kauai. Plus there's a sweet little shopping area adjacent to the truck with very local gifts, clothing and artwork. read more

Still trying to figure out what the hype is about. We ordered 3 combos - mango guava, strawberry lychee and coconut orange. All tasted quite bland and not much to rave about. read more

The shaved ice was amazing, flavors were great I'd go back again. It was a great experience.

Best shaved ice in the area. Definitely not a tourist trap. They use all homemade fresh ingredients so you're not getting some fake syrup. The ice cream they use is top-quality. And they add really nice. Free toppings on each order. May not be huge, but it is delicious and very authentic. Service is wonderful and you sit outside to eat right next-door to a really cool warehouse where they sell locally made stuff. read more

Chose the calamansi and mango flavors--delicious, refreshing, and didn't leave me feeling heavy or sugared out. Friendly service and plenty of tables to sit and enjoy your treat. Family-friendly spot with nearby shops to explore. Just a heads-up: there's an extra charge if you pay with a credit card. read more

Absolutely stellar work out of this little truck. If you sold this on the street in New York, it would be $25 a cone and the line would be down the block. Every syrup tasted like fresh fruit with a perfect mix of sweet and tart. It's worth the money; it's worth the drive; it's worth dining in a parking lot. Go here! read more

After finishing my vacation in Kauai, this is where you get your shaved ice. I had shaved ice almost every night while in Kauai, and I not just ordered one shaved ice, but I got a second one after the first one, which was so good. You get a max of two topping flavors, and the price was reasonable (~$9). The syrup they used was a lot less sugary than other places I have tried, and upon reading their website, they used cane sugar instead of fructose for the sweetening. The home coconut sauce with some honey on the top made the flavors more in-depth. The service was super quick, and the ambiance was nice, as there was a lot of outdoor seating. Hands down, I would go to this again. I will also drive across the island to get this shaved ice. read more

Dynamite! Every island has a special shave ice located on it and I believe this is kuaui's! A sweet lady runs this out of a food truck and it may not be fast but it is definitely worth the wait!! All of the shave ice are topped with a coconut cream, honey and fresh fruit! The flavors were soooo good!! No bare ice anywhere! read more

Waikomo Shave Ice - Lychee and mango:) - Shaved Ice Near Me - Kalaheo, Hawaii

Must stop here!!! As someone who generally isn't into shave ice because of the sugary, dye-heavy syrups, I sought this place out for the natural flavors and they did not disappoint. Heavy on the fresh fruit flavors without being sickly sweet. We especially loved the coconut cream and fruit topping. 10/10! Don't miss the cute shops in the Warehouse while you're there. I found the cutest t-shirt at The Local Beet read more

First experience with shave ice that wasn't just overly sweet synthetic flavors and it was great! They make their own syrups and top with small pineapple chunks. The perfect post-hike treat. Getting an ice cream scoop in the bottom is a must! Highly recommend and would return if ever back on Kauai! read more

Flavors at Waikomo were nothing amazing. Ululani remains my favorite. Ululani's flavors are delicious. The texture of Ululani's ice is soft and powdery. read more

I have waited my whole life to get shave ice because it didn't look appetizing until my uncle introduced me to these guys. They make all their own syrups and the flavors are incredible. I could have cried. The ice cream core and the little straw to slurp up all the melted bits together made my life. read more

Located by the warehouse shopping center, this adorable place has a great outdoor seating in the back. I had my sights set on trying the LocoCoco bowl, and they recommended the popular mango-strawberry flavor. It turned out to be the most delicious shave ice I've ever had! The flavors were incredibly rich, and the bowl contained real fruit pieces. I loved that I I could take the coco bowl and wooden spoon home as a souvenir. The service is amazing and they offered to rinse of the bowl and spoon so we can take them with us I can't wait to return when I'm in Kauai again read more

Best shave ice on the island! & it's situated next to some cutesy shops & and a micro bar and grill that are worth checking out as well. The flavors are all natural and not overly sweet. The coconut cream, honey, and fresh fruit topping make this shave ice special. It's the perfect refreshing treat. My favorite combo was the mango & passion fruit. The calamansi was quite tart and can be overpowering if combining with another flavor but still good nonetheless. The guava was also nice. Honestly, you can't go wrong. Highly recommend! read more

Great options and a refreshing treat. The shave ice and the açaí bowl were great! We tried the rainbow and the lack flow and both were delicious. read more

STILL my FAVORITE... STILL the BEST. No trip back to the island is complete without at least visiting Waikomo once or twice. We are blessed to stay at least 2 weeks each time we've gone and if I could have Waikomo every day, I would. For me, it's that good... Like I've said before, shave ice on Kaua'i is on a different level. The use of all natural juices and ingredients are what sets shave ice on this island above all the other islands IMO. And Waikomo, to me, is the BEST of them all. You would be smart to stop by whenever in Koloa town because you won't regret it. Our last trip back in late August/early September 2023, we stopped in for the perfect cool treat on a late Summer day. I got my typical lychee and strawberry regular shave ice. Waikomo tops theirs with fresh fruit, coconut cream and a honey drizzy. It's so good. I love it. Simply the BEST.... Visually, Waikomo's shave ice does not look like the others. The fruit and drizzy on top make it unique looking and taste even better.... The lady also got a regular with passion fruit and pineapple. She loved hers as usual. I always say I'm gonna try the blood orange but I just love lychee or haupia and strawberry or mango, maybe pineapple. Thomas was there and it was real good to see him. We chatted a little bit despite how typically busy they are. I appreciated his time. I didnt realize the Vegas location was no longer around and I told him I was bummed that I never got to try it... There really is no legit Hawaiian shave ice on the mainland. Believe me, I know... I've driven to countless places in Greater Los Angeles County and North San Diego trying all the options. Even when I go home to San Francisco, I try the latest attempts at it... None of them can touch what Waikomo does. Not a one. Try for yourself. I know I speak the truth... Show the people working there Aloha, they're working hard back there for you. Bring patience if there's a long line. You're on Kaua'i, best place to be stuck in a line. Don't forget to tip them... I will ALWAYS support this local owned business for as long as I'm able and as long as I'm welcome on this island we love so much... Mahalos for the sticker, Thomas... Slapped it on my Yeti, quick-like. Please make tees! I need one! Appreciate you. See you next Summer. We're already booked. Chee! read more

Omg. The best shave ice with natural ingredients! We got the calamansi and passion fruit and it was soooooo good. I'm not a fan of honey but didn't taste it at all. The coconut cream and fruit were a nice addition. It felt like we were eating healthy shave ice and it felt sooo good. Love love love! It's outside Warehouse 3540 read more

Delicious shaved ice! You can pick 2 flavors- we got strawberry and mango. We chose the add-on option of having vanilla macadamia nut ice cream at the bottom. It comes with cream, honey, and a bit of fresh fruit on top. This little shaved ice food truck is located on site at a hipster little marketplace. (Inside are various shops and food shops that are worth browsing to look for Hawaiian gifts for yourself or others.) read more

Best shaved ice I have ever consumed if I could inject this into my blood stream I would all the flavors are right the honey and the coconut cream just taste so good this is my second year in Hawaii and I am a 6 time returning customer if I could eat this everyday I would I will miss you when I'm gone read more

3.5 stars. This was my second choice for shave ice. The truck is located in a lot with 2 others. The ice isn't fluffy as another I had the day before but it wasn't as icy chunky as others. I tried the calamasi with coconut and added vanilla Mac ice cream for $2 extra charge. The calamasi flavor isn't as strong as I'd prefer. There's a couple picnic type tables to sit and enjoy. If you use a credit card instead of cash, there's a surcharge about 40 cents. read more

Waikomo was catered at a wedding we attended! I was so impressed with the smoothness of the ice. We've had a very fair share of shaved ice among all the islands, this one is one of the better ones. The ladies were very sweet and nice. If you're considering shaved ice for an event, this one is an easy decision read more

How this gets a 4.8 is beyond me! First time visiting Kauai and first time visiting this shaved ice only got coconut w vanilla Mac nut ice cream It was fantastic next time I'll try orange dream or calamansi and blood orange the girl working there was very nice and would highly recommend this shaved ice stand /small food truck but great shaved ice read more

Best shave ice I've had. Coconut cream, honey, and fruit come on top of each order if desired, which enhances the flavor profile.

Excellent! We had the special...coffee and coconut. It was great! We have been trying several shaved ice locations in Kauai during our visit. This was one of our favorites. read more

It was petty good. Super fancy. People seem to love it... So forgive us if we simply prefer the old fashioned style. Just one man's opinion... read more

We tried multiple shave ice places on our trip to Kauai and this was hands down the very best. Has actual homemade and fresh juices and syrups. No other place in Kauai compares!! read more

Shaved ice: 4.5. This is from my visit on Feb 22. My cousin brought me here. This is a small place with limited parking and seating. I ordered the blueberry and mango shaved ice. It has been awhile since I've had shaved ice. Dessert came out after some time but looked amazing and appetizing. Ice was so soft and melt-in-your-mouth tasty. Flavor was robust and addicting. This was really good even when it was cold outside. Staff was very friendly and welcoming. read more

What a treat on the island! The shaved ice here has an incredibly soft and snowy texture, almost like a melt-in-your-mouth cotton candy experience. The guava and mango flavors were spot on--nothing artificial about it. If you want to spice up your dessert game, I recommend getting the works: ice cream, fresh fruit, coconut cream, and honey--your taste buds will thank you. The server was also very friendly and had her dog greeting customers in the front :) read more
