Waiola Shave Ice - Honolulu

Excellent shave (not shaved) ice. It’s located in a quiet neighborhood and in a corner store. The shave ice has a fine texture (not like typical shave ice). They offer about 30 different unique flavors and toppings. I’d recommend trying a few and sharing. You can get up to two flavors unless you get rainbow. A small was more than enough for me and I’m a big dessert person. Street parking only.

Worth the hype (and the short wait). The softest shave ice I've had so far compared to other places I've tried in Maui, Kauai. Unique flavours too like ube and ginger.

Great shaved ice place in a neighborhood just outside Waikiki. Syrups were all really good, not too sweet and they had ice cream and condensed milk toppings too. Best part was the ice itself, not chunky or grainy but really smooth texture which is what you want it a shaved ice. The line wasn't too long for us, but they included simple instructions for efficient ordering. There was also a convenience store attached to it, with random stuff and swag (t-shirts, magnets and stickers) Will definitely be back again next time I'm in Oahu!

The best ice shaved I've had. Love the fashion fruit flavor and the rainbow .

Great shaved Ice. I got the Lilikoi and melona flavor and really think the lilikoi was the star. The syrup tasted super fresh and the texture of the ice was phenomenal. They shave their ice in a traditional way (not some of the ribbon shapes you may see at other places) but it’s so fine that there is a lot of air and surface area this allows the ice to taste super airy and almost creamy. Highly recommend!
