Reviews of Ice Monster Hawaii
Sainandan Kaipu
Wonderful ambience, extremely neat, some of the best staff I have ever encountered. We tried Mango sensation and we took a small size. However, the quantity was so much that two of us couldn’t finish it. The photos itself show how good it looked.
Now for the tricky part. I am not a big fan of shaved ice but still wanted to try as it was thing to try in Hawaii. I am more of an icecream person. Also felt it was little expensive for the kind of food you got. But for the quantity, quantity and ambience it was worth it.
Ryan S
This place is a great stop to cool down and enjoy some sweetness! We had the coffee and Thai tea flavors and they were both delicious. They both come with a few topping for extra flavor. The texture of the frozen ice is so satisfying and tasteful! Remember to use a coupon from the little books you see on all the sidewalks to get 15% off!
Trina J
This place was delicious! They are also fairly reasonably priced. We ordered a small strawberry, mango and coffee shaved ice and four people shared it. We could barely finish what we ordered!
It’s open late and it’s got great customer service! I would definitely go out of my way to come back here again!
Joseph Zhang
Everything is amazing and unique. The ice is shaved from a flavored ice block. Ice cream, fresh boba and milk pudding are added on the side. Flavor is very good. Way better than the ones with ice and syrup added on top. Wish they can have more stores in the mainland US.
Pauline Wong
Their shave ice is to die for! It was so good, we returned two more times! We even gave their ice cream popsicle a chance and it was also really good, packed full of flavours!
Yes, it is a tad pricey for ice cream but worth a try! Look for a coupon in the Oahu's Best Coupons book.
Nick Windy
Love shaved Ice. The best way I can describe the texture it is it is like ICE CREAM COTTON CANDY. It starts dissolving as soon as it touches your mouth. I LOVE THE MANGO. The flavor in not overly sweet....just the true flavor of mango. In the picture that is the small and it will feed 6 or more. You have to try when you are in Hawaii. #shaved ice #hawaii #honolulu
Aimee Chen
The shaved ice at Ice Monster was so delicious that we had to visit multiple times during our 1 week stay in Waikiki. Their shaved ice is made from flavored ice blocks, unlike shave ice which is flavored mainly by sweet syrups. We tried the matcha sensation, fresh mango sensation, and milk tea sensation, and they were all amazing. The fresh mango sensation, in particular, was reminiscent of the shaved ice we had in Taiwan! Would highly recommend! I just wish Ice Monster would open more branches in the U.S.!
Maria Patricia Ruiz
This was my first time trying a shaved ice. We got the matcha flavor with bubbles, and ice cream, it was delicious. In the afternoon it’s not crowded at all, big place, lot of space to sit around. The guys were super nice. They have different flavors and also some other options like smoothies. Definitely worth to try!
Steven Warren
Weird textures but it's tasty. HUGE portions!! This was the small, but it's an XXL anywhere else. It's like a frozen fruit smoothie turned shaved ice. Come here if you want those fruit smoothie flavors.
Anna Genest
Yuuuuuummmm!!!
Clean looking space!
Employees masked! (Thank you!)
Bonus points to the cashier who was kind to my social, excited, curious, talkative children.
And both the matcha shave ice and the pineapple shave ice were soooo good. Highly recommended.
And black sesame sorbet! Who knew? Delicious.
Dee Y
Delicious, esp the pineapple shaved ice. But grossly understaffed. The poor guy in the man bun was manning the counter, taking orders, cleaning machines, making shaved ice and toppings ALL BY HIMSELF. The wait was almost 20mins. Highly recommend hiring more people to meet the demand as the whole place was full with a line out the door
Daniel Hankins
I don't say this lightly: this is the best shaved ice I've ever had in my life, and I just turned 40. The flavor is in the ice, not just syrup poured on top. My favorite is the Thai tea with tapioca pearls. My wife and I were visiting for 8 days and came three times. I highly recommend it!
Helen ICE
This is one of my favourite shaved ice places. I had mongo and coffee flavours before and had matcha flavour today. Super delicious. Not too sweet. Strongly recommend it.
daniel kim
Shaved frozen juice. Very refreshing tasting without the too sweet syrup taste problem. Want to come back mid day when it is hot instead of after dinner...
Cindy Ly
I really enjoyed their Matcha Sensation!!! The service was excellent. I stopped by not knowing that they had happy hours, so I originally wanted to spend my money on a small cup of shaved ice. I thought it was cheaper that way. Thanks to the cashier lady for letting me know that it was cheaper to order a large because of the 30% off discount.
Emil Iyog
After a nice dinner, I checked out Ice Monster Hawaiian Ice. Although they had many exciting and familiar Hawaiian ICR flavors, I ordered the Fresh Mango Sensation. The Ice felt like cold cotton candy, soft and tasty. The perfect dessert to end the warm night.
C-ADVENTURES
This shaved ice is really good, they are real fruit shaved ice, the texture feels like cotton, portions are very big and price not too bad, so if you’re trying to beat the heat, this is your pit stop.
Wallace Tran
Nice on a warm Hawaii sunny day after beach or shopping. Huge mound of shaved ice for a reasonable price (even small). Good add-ons and great texture on the shaved ice. Would go again for sure!
R Johnson
Good mango sensation. The reason I gave it a 3-star is the price. It’s just not worth $16 (plus $3 for parking for a sole reason of visiting this place) for a large size mango-flavored shaved ice with a few fresh cubes of mango, plus a thin slice of almond jelly.
Jimmy Daugherty
Hands down the best shave ice I had on Waikiki. Instead of ice with syrup or fruit juice, the ice is infused with the juice and frozen and then shaved to serve. They have fewer flavors but they taste amazing.
Andrew Fang
The ice here is unlike other ice places, the flavor is fused into the ice, and the way it’s shaved, the ice melts in your mouth. Mango is the house special and our favorite. We got a monster sized mango and a normal strawberry.
Louise Chiu
Been here twice in 3 days! The best dessert for a hot day! Super soft, melt in your mouth shaved ice served w ice-cream, real fruit/ boboa and smooth tofu dessert. The ice is so flavourful coz the block ice is frozen w the actual blended fruit, coffee or tea in it. Value for money... it's not colouring you r having but it is full of goodness. Shu served us on the 2nd visit... she is so friendly and helpful as we were wondering which flavour to go for! 😊
Just go for the Monster size... you won't regret it 🤤
Momo
Love their matcha ice cream. Also love the fact that they put boba on the side so it doesn't get tough by the ice cream. It was really considerate of them. It was really delicious. However, there was a few things that bothers me, it was really really really cold in the store to the point that it was really hard to eat in the store. Their tables werent cleaned as much as it should too.
Jessica Williams
I can’t even describe how delicious these shaved ice’s were. Just absolutely flavorful. The ice melts right in your mouth and the syrups used blended well with everything. You should try this place on a late night out! I will be back again :)
Andy Andersen
Very interesting flavor and experience- I’ve never eaten such a combination for desert. I’m not a huge sweets fan but glad to have tried it. Staff were also friendly
Zeke
Honestly so much better than expected. I just wanted “some trashy icey creamy thing”, but it’s my exact right balance of sweet, creamy, earthy (I got matcha), and _refreshing_.
ALSO the staff came over to add more caramel and condensed milk to mine because I ate through all of mine immediately like an animal.
So if you, like me, want to live in a world where that kind of love creates undying customer loyalty, be the change you want to see - by eating a giant sugary pile of ice monster
The Keidron World
The Monster Matcha Sensation was *VERY* good, especially for those who love tea!
They offer a nice clean cozy space with various ice cream products of very good portion size, especially the Monster size!
There are coupons in the local Oahu, Hawai'i publications, such as the Oahu's Best Coupons booklet, that offer really good savings to make the large servings an even tastier value!
Charles Choi
Shave ice from Taiwan and offer similar menu. Taste like from Taiwan. Arrived at 9 pm, there was no line. Plenty of seats and table available. Get the large size to share for two people. Too bad ice is not served on dine in dishes. Presentation would be a lot nicer.
Marsha Judkins
My husband and I shared a small coffee shaved ice and it was huge! And so delicious! I have never had anything quite like it. Underneath the ice was panna cotta and there's also a scoop of cookies and cream gelato. The place was clean and large and the service was friendly.
Calin Waters
great ice cream kind of dessert...it has a unique texture! the serving sizes are really big (2 people could barely finish the small one). it is kind of pricey for ice cream but worth it for the size and quality.
D C1
Hands down the best shaved ice in town. They actually use frozen coffee, matcha or whatever the flavor you order then shave that into a very fluffy and finely shaved ice. Topped with various add-ons.
c.w.
super cute joint in waikiki.
pretty busy when we entered but the table turnaround time was quick. boba texture was good, & the sesame ice cream too. mango popsicle was flavorful & cute!
Jimmy C
What can I say but wow! Best dessert place I've ever been to. The shaved ice is just so creamy and melts! I'm going to miss this place when we leave. I've tried a few places with shaved ice but the matcha dream is outstanding and well worth the visit. This is my second stop here because we loved it so much.
A
Lovely staff, no bathrooms however, all the flavors are great and ambiance is very cute. Top rated by CNN AND def should come if in area.
Myra Smart
I tried a couple shaved ice shops near Waikiki and this was our favorite one. There were 5 of us and we just bought two of the monster size to share. It was perfect. Also if u live here, student of military u get 20% off which made this totally reasonable.
Kelly N
Best shaved ice made with real fruits in Hawaii! #1 mango sensation was the best. #2 was pineapple and #3 strawberry flavor. It is a little pricey, but it's worth it for the taste that melts into your mouth.
Guy Pritchard
Had the Matcha and the Mango.. This ain’t your mommas shave ice, it’s betta! It’s been sometime since I’ve been in Hawaii and was expecting shave ice from 20 years ago which was good. This is ssoo much better. If you get a chance stop in and see for yourself. It’s shaved super thin (like fluffy aired up powder lol) and served with extras like tapioca pearls and a scoop of sorbet or fruit plus coconut jelly and a drizzle of (what I think was) condensed milk. It IS a bit pricey about $12-14 for a small, which is too much for one, (but what in Honolulu isn’t 🤷🏻♂️) however you can save a couple bucks if you're affiliated with the military. Like most places in Waikiki you can get a discount if you’re military and ask.
Marbo Cheng
I tried their Mango, matcha and papaya flavor shaved ice they were all pretty good. If I have to pick one I would go with the basic Mango.
Jozef Watson
Had the strawberry shaved ice monster size, it's enough for 4 people probably, really enjoyed the fact they use juice for the shaved portion and not flavored ice, excellent flavor maybe too rich if anything.
Phil Sigler
Certainly a different type of cold dessert. It's our first experience to shaved ice and it's hard to explain. We did really enjoy it though.
It's certainly way better than a slushy or snow cones.
N B-E
Popped in when on vacation since I had seen super long lines the previous few nights. The strawberry shaved ice was enough for 4 people but since there were only 2 of us we managed LOL. Fun atmosphere, fair prices, and a good experience overall. Would return!
RCS S
The coffee shaved ice s good. It takes some time for the orders to get served.
Luis Lopez
We had Hawaiian shaved ice at a couple different places while in Honolulu. However, Ice Monster is definitely the best. We had the strawberry shaved ice and it was absolutely delicious. The small is huge and can be shared between two people, which is what my wife and I did. I wish we had tried this place earlier in our trip since we leave tomorrow and won't have time to try their other flavors.
Alfred Harding
Shave Ice on steroids! Had the Mango flavor and it’s delicious. Lots of mango flavor and also includes mango slices and a scoop of mango ice cream (sorbet per owners response). The mini (small per owners response) was huge, easily shared. Will be back.
Jayden Ye
They have limited flavors because they do not use syrup as most shave ice stores do. They embed flavors in the ice already. A good place for family because even two people cannot finish on dish. Super large!
Jingqian Liu
It’s just the ordinary ice slash you can find in convenience stores. No idea why this place is so popular. You have to wait in line for fifteen minutes to order and another twenty minutes to get it. Really isn’t worth the wait.
El Brayan Mero
Mango ice was of a pleasant powdery consistency. The mango fruit/ mango fruit preserves, panna cotta, and mango ice cream were nice touches. Something to cool you down on a warm day. If they had more traditional Taiwanese toppings it would be awesome.
Charlie Te
This might be new or not, but it's new to me this time around. This place has a cool decor and some cool shaved ice flavors. We tried the papaya and the milk tea one. Both were very good and refreshing. The papaya in my mind was a bit more refreshing and had that fresh taste to it. The milk tea definitely reminded me of drinking milk tea. The boba and brown sugar grass jelly were also tasty.
Kathy Arnold
This is the 4th shave ice we've tried. By far, this is the best. It's also very different. We tried mango, strawberry, pineapple and papaya. We loved all except maybe the papaya. Very light, the fruit and sorbet that came with it are all amazing. We are planning on coming back during our short stay here. Plus the customer service was amazing.
Jiin Jeong
Interesting flavors and experience! I had the bubble tea small size, and it was large enough for 2-3 ppl. You should go for it if you are in Hawaii for the first time. Long line but it’s typical of Hawaii!
Daniel Phillips
A lot of places around the island have shaved ice. Many are like snow cones - granulated ice with syrup. This is different and for me, more enjoyable. The texture is that of fragile sheets of ice cream that melt in your mouth. Kids loved it, went back twice.
World Explorer (Travel)
It’s fun to watch and eat this mountain of deliciousness. This is different from the traditional Hawaiian shaved ice, since it’s made from flavored ice block instead of clear ice block. The shaving machine is also adjusted to create this soft puffy cotton-candy-like texture. The quantity is huge for one person to finish, so it’s usually shared among family or friends.
James Lin
This is hidden gem shave ice place at Waikiki. The ice melt in ur month and you don’t have to wait thirty minutes in the line. Check this place.
Taka Yokoyama
Great place to get shaved ice.
Shaved ice here is so soft and I've never had this good. Must try it.
Kareena Kullar
Best dessert ever!! Our favorite spot in Waikiki. A must-do!! Spent 5 days in Waikiki, went to Ice Monster 7 times. We got every fruit flavor and loved each one! Texture is everything. Melts in your mouth. The fruit is such high quality. Staff is the best.
Mike S
The shaved ice was too sweet and way too large portions. If 4 people walk in with different flavors you have no options to get a small size. However, the sorbets are amazing. They are very icey and my daughter loved the cookies and cream the most she begged me to take her back.
cottoncandy
Usually I love shaved ice, but I thought the combination of the dessert was odd. Wasn't my cup of tea. Staff is kind though
Chi Nguyen
The best shave iced we had during our trip in Honolulu. We ate it mostly everyday. It’s not just shaved ice with syrup squirted on, but an actual ice block of the flavor with frozen fruit infused in it. SO GOOD!!!!
Colter Williams
AMAZING!!! We wanted shaved ice and I remembered seeing a place called Ice Monster. Woahhhyyyy, Ice Monster shaved ice is amazing! It’s so light and fluffy almost like cotton candy. The flavors are bold, and the sizes are plentiful. I would recommend this to anyone in Waikiki who is looking for shaved ice 10/10.
The staff is friendly, and will help if you have any questions. The service is quick. And the environment is clean, very clean....which is so important in these current times. Ice Monster you have a new fan, thank you - Colter
Jasmine Lee
The space was open and super cute. The service was very friendly and helpful since it was our 1st time and we didn't know what to get! The quality of the drinks and deserts were AMAZING and I wanted to order more after we finished lololol perfect for a light and refreshing treat after a warm day in Waikiki!
Danny Rosales
Ice monster, it's a pristine place. The store front in the middle of Waikiki busiest shopping centers The decor is rocking with their characters through the store and the color layout is beautiful. They have 3 sitting sections to choose from. The ice cream is delicious. And the workers are friendly. They have all favors and a variety of different items for sale. If your in Hawaii, you must visit.
Chris Cucinella
This place has excellent shave ice! They flavor ahead of time and shave SUPER fine and thin. It feels like eating wonderful fruity frozen cotton candy.
They serve with some pana cotta and sorbet. They also have a dairy free option.
Really great stuff.
Joe Cheng
We wanted to try shave ice in Honolulu and went to this shop. The cashier/server was very friendly and professional and did not rush us to place our order even the shop was closing soon. The pineapple shave ice was really good. The only mild complaint was that there was some smell in the shop and it got really bad that we decided to leave and the shave ice and enjoyed it back in our hotel.
S.K. Hislop Jr.
This here is a 🥭 Mango Shaved Ice with the Mango Fruit and it usually will come with 2 scoops of Mango Sorbet but I didn't wanted it. They got 5 different varieties and they all looked delicious. The staff are reasonably kindhearted and courteous within customer service. Come check it out and cool off. …
Ken Wong
The desserts were yummy. Not absolutely bad pricing but understand the location is in Waikiki so they can charge more. Had several desserts and everyone enjoyed them.
Rosalie Wolff
I can't begin to explain the hold this place has on me. I have worked at several ice cream shops and being from Wisconsin who visits a lot, has a pretty good range on ice cream/shave ice. This is by the far the tastiest most delicious shave ice I have ever had. I would take the 9 hour flight just to have their Matcha and Black Sesame shave ice. If you are staying in the Waikiki are you must visit Ice Monster!!
James Kim
Pretty good place. We had mango and coffee shaved ice cream.
Justin Llanes
They have huge servings. My wife and I ordered one of each and to our surprise, it would been enough for 4 people. Shaved Ice was very tasty and no too sweet.
Hana Slaughter
Really good service and the coffee one my bf got was great.
I got the papaya and the ice had a very odd aftertaste and I couldn't stand it. The papaya sorbet was amazing, and I wish I had just gotten a cup of that. I wouldn't recommend the papaya ice though, unless this happened to be a weird batch.
Takeshi Yokoyama
Pricey but worthy. Mango was our favourite with three different ice textures and natural mango flavour! The best !
Anthony Messina
Very unique dessert. Fascinating to watch. Tasted great. Definitely a heavy dessert and should be split haha. Environment here was nice. Counter serve and made pretty quickly!
J S
A must try! I went here a lot when my family was staying in Waikiki and loved it every time! My daughter loved the little popsicles. The guy that worked the register was a pro at customer service! Super friendly and informative. Definitely good at his job. These sweet treats are delicious and very refreshing. I only wish they had more flavors for their bubble tea, but I wouldn't consider that a deal breaker because you don't go there for that 🤣 Other staff was also friendly. I had an A+ experience everytime and environment was very inviting every time. Will definitely visit again!
Raymond Chiu
This place is so much better than regular shaved ice.
The texture of their shaved ice concoction is really like layers of tasty snow. Nothing compares. Once you have tried it, you can't go back to regular shaved ice. Unfortunately it's a bit on the pricey side but I can't stop now! Tried the Mango, Papaya, Matcha and strawberry flavors. I need to go back and try the rest!
Bryleigh Raethel
This might be blasphemy for a lot of people but I think this is the best Shave Ice on the island. It is 12 bucks for a small but it is just delicious. Don't get a large unless you want to share it with somebody, and probably share the small ha ha
Bee K
Great dessert spot. Ice is shaved and very good. Portions are large, easily sharable between 2-3 people.
karanveer singh
The coffee flavored shaved ice was large and delicious!
Eleanor Hirsch
We ordered the Mini Fresh Mango, Papaya Ice Cream and Boba Milk Tea. We loved it! The flavor is very fresh and tasty too. We especially love the boba. Love the sweet and bitter taste of the boba. Great customer service too (Tim)!
Ashley Martinez
If you go to Honolulu, you absolutely need to try this place!!! Highly recommend!!!!
Qiaojun Feng
The best shaved-ice in Honolulu! The ice is flavored so I like it better than the syrup on plain ice. A lot of ingredients! Extra cups for bobas and coffee jelly for the coffee shaved ice so it is really a lot!
J L
I wish they will open this chain Ice Monster in the mainland. It is the best shaved ice I’ve ever tried in my life. I heard it was originally from Taiwan.
The store located in the center of Waikiki area, next to Starbucks. They have several flavors and I choose to try the Matcha Sensation (since I’m a big fan of Matcha). Price is around $11.50 for a Small to $15 for a Large (little pricey for shaved ice... cuz it is Hawaii haha) but the taste is beyond expectations.
My matcha shaved ice comes with brown sugar boba and a scoop of Sesame ice cream... trust me you won’t regret it!!
I also love the store since its decoration is so cute and service is 10/10. Will visit again when I’m back to Honolulu ❤️
Nicholas Flores
First time trying the shave ice here. Had the matcha and it was delicious. Great especially for a warm day. Cute decor, clean place, friendly staff. $11 for size small, was still a decent portion. Wish we had one back home.
Steven Watson
These desserts are very refreshing. I got their coffee flavored shaved ice. It's almost like having ice cream but, much lighter in flavor and texture. According to their website it's served with a scoop of cookies and cream gelato, panna cotta, and brown sugar jelly. I think calling this gelato is being very generous. It's barely passable as just ice cream. It's icy. It doesn't have a smooth consistency. It's presence here isn't offensive, though. The panna cotta and jelly are nice. They add an interesting complement to the shave ice.
George Bryan
The location itself is very new, clean and bright. The portions are large, but expensive as well (plan to spend about $15). The ice itself is super cold and shaved extremely fine, but the flavours are very subtle and almost bland at times (I had the papaya). It was enjoyable but not worth the price.
Grace K
Amazing Taiwanese style shave ice. The boba was also very yummy. Highly recommended.
Anastasia Turchenkova
I thought that shaved ice is a lie cause usually it’s just crushed ice with some syrup, but Ice Monster is different, the ice is really shaved and it is amazing.
Rian Clinton
This is the best thing ever. I have no idea how they make ice this soft. Where most use syrup the ice is already flavored so it doesn't melt. The mango was delightful and my kids acted like savages on a fresh kill. We will be back here.
Eldon Ngo
Very nice little shop to dine in on your shaved ice. We got the milk tea boba monster size! Very tasty and flavorful.
Hung Do
The pineapple giant monster was killa. Ice was fluffy & light, almost powdery. Fresh pineapple was tasty. Would be great on a hot day or daytime. We had it in the evening, still good. Will try the mango or coffee next time.
Akshay Mutha
Best shaved ice ever had. It’s very smooth and flavorful. Mango was our favorite.
Mike H
We love the original shop in Taipei, and were glad to see a store here. No offense meant, but I prefer this over the local shaved ice.
Jack
This was the perfect pick-me-up for our family. We ordered 3 different items - the black sesame sorbet, bubble tea and strawberry. Presentation was beautiful and taste even better - strawberry was my personal favourite!
The servers and management were incredibly attentive and kind, as well.
In short, you gotta eat here!
Kara Chen
Best shave ice in honolulu, the ice is light and fluffy! Staffs and the owner are very friendly
Highly recommend
M Fantazia
The line can be long but it’s well worth the wait! Just look at this incredible dessert! Tasted as good as it looked, can’t wait to come back and try the other flavors.
Thao Nguyen
Came in around happy hour time so the monster size was 20% off! The mango one was so tasty. The ice texture was interesting too!
Jing Li
I love bingsu style shaved ice. If you enjoy the fluffy texture of the Korean shaved ice, you’ll probably like the desserts here.
Sayaka S
Shaved ice spot in main Waikiki area. Perfect spot to stop for little dessert. We got a small size strawberry shaved ice and it was more than enough for two. Very nice flavor and good combinations of toppings.
JustMy OpinionGirl
Great Mango Sorbet. The shop is so cute and the little characters along the walls are adorable.
We always passed by and the line was always long... this time around... we were able to slide right to the front. Yeyy. Loved the sorbet, a nice place to hang out while cooling off from the sun.
Amanda Hu
Big portion size. The milk tea shaved ice had good flavor but a little too icy. Served with boba pearls and Panna cotta. Seating is available.
Stephen Weaver
It's definitely a different style of shave ice, but it is worth the price. They use fresh fruits
Austin Sinclair
Good price for the amount you get and the amount of flavor was great. The texture is also quite unique.
Melvin Lopez
Delicious, very different from the traditional way! I really recommend this place for a totally new experience full of flavor!!
Yoon Soo Park
Nice place to get shaved ice. Mangoand green tea are especially good.
Sharon Kim
Best matcha and papaya shaved ice I've ever had!! The tapioca pearls, panacotta cheese, sorbet, shaved ice, EVERYTHING goes well together. If I could give it a 10 out of 5, I would gladly do so!! (Husband agrees 100%)
Rach C
Best shaved ice ever! It’s a chain from Taiwan so it’s different from the local shaved ice but i found it way better. Would recommend to anyone needing a break from the heat. Super nice staff. No washrooms available to customers though which is not great for a food establishment
Ruth Rodriguez
Found this place from one of the discount booklets at airport, it's Amazing!!!! Soo good and good flavors. Big portions and great ambiance. Very friendly staff, loved the experience will come back.
David Ruther
This place does shaved ice a little differently in that the flavor is in the ice block and then it's shaved. If you get the Sensations you can get extra like sorbet, pudding, and fruit chunks on the side. Very tasty.
Geric Orias
Great spot for some shave ice! We have been to another location back home in Concord, CA, and this spot tastes just as good! I think we even saw the owner of that location over here. The selection isn't that big, but the flavors are! They have a new offering of popsicles if that's your thing. Just beware that the lines can get long.
The Chillmaster
Its kinda like Ice Cream but its not. Extremely friendly staff and workers and inexpensive
Michelle Wang
very cute place, great service, I went by myself so didn’t get the shaved ice but the popsicle was a very nice surprise. Taste so good!!
Wenter S.
Such fast good service and the mango sensation was amazing! Got it with boba and strawberries as extras and was so worth!
Sarah Moussi
Mo was extremely nice, and very professional. The ice cream is really good and the portions are very generous.
Wilson Tiang
Some may stop at the price but i must encourage you to try it. Great way to keep cool in the Hawaiian heat. If shaved ice isn’t your thing, they have a great selection of sorbet as well. This isn’t “like a snow cone” it is its own thing and far more delicious and refreshing
Greg Allen
I was blown away with how big these ice treats are! Tastes really good especially after a hot day at the beach!
エスアイ
Very good taste! You can order small size. Small size was not small but medium size for me.
There are original and small size.
Original is about 13~15dollars. Small is about 7-8dallars.
Geoff Benjamin
So fun! We loved the warm boba on the side. Mango ruled and true fresh mango was delicious. The Panna Cotta was bland and forgettable, but you can’t win them all.
Seon Young Rhee
Bright and bubbly ambiance. Their flavored shaved ice treats have very unique combinations; a mountain of shaved ice, a scoop of sorbet, bobas and some silk tofu with drizzle of syrup make very fun experience. This place is for the one who wants some cold desserts that are not too sweet.
Ravi Vijaya Satya
Best shaved ice I have ever had. It had the texture of cotton candy.
Ana Ramirez
This was so good. Delish. It was a nice treat to cool down after being in the sun. Great for sharing or alone. My first visit. Definitely coming back for one more.
Peter Husser
Addicting. Delicious. Went almost eve day on a week long trip. Will miss it till next time… 🤤🥰 …

We ordered mango and strawberry flavors, best ice shave ever for real.
Lupe Villalpando
Best Shave Ice in Hawaii hands down 🤙you can thank me later! …
William Macaraig-Organ
The two gentleman working had amazing customer service and were polite. I got extra whipped cream and couldn’t be happier. Awesome dessert
Tyler Schmitt
Delicious! Very creamy shaved ice with tons of flavour. Had the mango and will definitely go again!!
Wei-fang Wesley Chang
It's nice to taste the Taiwan style 綿綿冰 here. Staff is really nice and the shaved ice is great.
Hye Jin S
My favorite ice place while in Waikiki.
I had a few different flavors there, but I think my favorite is mango.
Papaya was fun too :)
The location is nice and they have a decent amount of seating.
Portions are big as well.
Yao Wong
Excellent Taiwanese-style shaved ice (think ribbons, not powder). The ice itself is flavored. The small size was more than enough to share amongst 2 adults and a kid. Super friendly service.
Yelp P
Great place to grab shaved ice with quality ingredients and fresh fruits
Rick Overson
Very unique incredibly fluffy shave ice. Flavors were authentic and not overly saccharin. Delicious and novel experience.
Nicholas Miles
the staff is super friendly. the shaved ice is good but expensive.
Keith Lam
For a shave ice place, this is really, and should be, one of the tops. Ice was shaved into 'thin-sheet" like, it is more like shave Popsicles where the flavors are already in the ice, so there was no syrup. It was topped with condensed milk that was not too sweet. Very refreshing and flavorful. A must try for Waikiki!
Janice Ellis
My daughter sent me to buy Hawaiian ice. At Ice Monster the guy said theirs was better. I wanted a mix of strawberry & mango & accidentally got two: 1 strawberry & 1 mango. Expensive but just maybe worth it….super delicious!!!!
Michael Mccourt
It does what it tries to do, which is the highest praise I can give a dessert shop. The Taiwan style shaved ice is unique and quite tasty (I enjoyed the tea flavor). Portions are large (even the smallest portion is); prices are probably what you'd expect (maybe 10% more expensive). Lotta cool flavors, great environment in there, nice vibe. Service was great, though it was pretty empty when I was there so I don't know what it's like if you have to wait in line.
Katherine
They are very nice here and accommodated my request for no dairy. It was the best shave ice we’ve had in Hawaii. Highly recommend to come here after a day on the beach.
L. Garcia
Here again after a year and it’s just as good as we remembered. It took a little longer and done-in seating was limited but totally worth it for us! We always get the mango and the bubble tea both are delicious with strong flavors yet not too sweet which is just the way we like it. I typically get my boba milk tea zero sweetness so for me the bubble tea is perfect because the tapioca are served on the side for you to add as you like. If you want yours super sweet, I would recommend adding extra toppings.
Drew Tschirki
Super good pineapple shaved ice. Very generous portion size. Definitely recommend!
M Ochoa
It was a bit pricey but the ice was delicious and fluffy. It was so good.
Damon Sterrett
Atmosphere was nice, with large seating area inside. The Strawberry Sensation we ordered was 'just okay' for the $10 price tag. Staff unfortunately did not have much knowledge when it came to dietary needs (when I asked the cashier what items were gluten free, I was met with a confused stare). At most there were only 3 people present behind the counter, so I would heavily recommend going before the dinner rush. Not bad, but definitely not "sensational."
Jesse Chang
Delicious shaved ice, the texture is so soft and fluffy~
Jose Lim
So hot outside!!! Thirst quencher! The shaved ice is really fine.
Jamin Castillo
Best shaved ice in waikiki, probably of all Oahu. I like it better than Matsumoto.
Thomas Z. Bodor
Such a cool place ! We got free samples and spun a wheel for coupons. The best shaved ice I've ever had. We want to go back!
Spencer Lee
Massive lines after 9 and it took about an hour to get the desserts. Flavors are pretty good and the Boba had a good texture. Is it worth waiting an hour plus? Maybe not, but it was the only iced dessert taking orders still on Waikiki.
For clarity, this is not shave ice. It's closer to a Taiwanese shave ice. Not that that's a bad thing, but it shouldn't be confused!!
Kitty Williams
You can find this kind of shaved ice except at ice monster. They treated us like they just opened. Soooo friendly. Making sure we were happy. The ice is essentially frozen puree. Nothing added.. The mango is amazing. Sweet and very refreshing.
Kaz M
If you have this kind of shave fruit ice/ flake, you cannot go back to regular shave ice.
Sean McKenna
Enjoyed the mango monster. Happy hour Noon - 2.
Ziyong Wu
Love! Must try!The best shave Ice!
Rachel Franceschino
Best shaved ice in the area. Save yourself from the long waits near Royal Hawaiian and head here instead
Mrs Cee Gee
Our kids loved our mango dessert. It’s gluten free and great for coeliacs (celiacs).
H : (D)
The shave ice looked nothing like the pictures but it tasted pretty good. Got the mango one.
blue sky
The flavored saved ice just meet in your mouth. It was quite good
R. Lee Donaldson
If you need to cool off from the Hawaii hot and sunny weather, this is the place for you in the middle of Waikiki on Kuhio Avenue. The place is large and with it's fun décor makes for an enjoyable place to relax while trying this unique Asian style dessert from Taiwan that anyone would enjoy if you like cold treats.
It is a true shaved iced treat. The dessert is made from very finely shaved flavored iced that is impossible to describe. It is just something you have to checkout yourself. All I can tell you is that is is very delicious and will definitely cool you off as well as satisfy you for a snack or dessert.
I tried the Papaya Milk Sensation which had fresh flavors of papaya shaved ice dessert with tapioca boba and panna cotta. It is great if you don't want anything that is overly sweet and has lighter flavors. I appreciated how they gave the warmed tapioca boba in a side container so that it didn't melt your desert before you could enjoy it. You just take a small spoonful of the warm tapioca and then dig into the papaya shaved ice for the full effect.
One thing to note, is that is isn't a cheap eat, but you have to respect how they handcraft your dessert for you at time of ordering. It isn't like going to an ice cream parlor where they just take a scoop of your flavor choice and pile it on. I think it is worth it, but might not be the place for one who is budget conscious.
Shanna Rogers
Very good shaved ice! Highly recommend coming here!!!
Isaiah0910
Such a yummy and light dessert. It is not your typical shave ice. The ice is literally shaved like an extremely thin deli meat. When you eat it it feels like fluff in your mouth. It is also made with fresh fruit! I love how they gave out samples outside. We ordered a small fresh mango sensation, keiki pineapple sensation and cookies and creme sorbet with caramel. They were all delicious! I would definately come back here again. My kids have a pretty picky palette and they give it a 5 stars as well. The staff was great. We received exceptional service from Brandon. They also give military discount which is awesome for my wallet.
Kristen M
Wow! This place was a pleasant surprise. Wasn’t sure what to expect as it wasn’t busy when we went. Friendly and patient staff with our group of 10! We shared the strawberry and pineapple shaved ice, but they had samples of mango—so good ;) Everything was consistent, and tasted fresh and healthy (compared to shave ice with syrup poured over). Thanks for a great experience :-)
챙호쉔솨CHSS
Halloween is just around the corner.
Thank you, Nice staffs & suprise Halloween giveaway♡
Cindy Wackerly
This is such an awesome, different dessert place! The coffee sensation shaved ice and tried my husbands pineapple as well, and both were delicious. Very clean, nice place with spoons set out on tables, waiting for patrons. I will definitely go back before vacation is over.
Andy Cai
Ice very finely shaved, texture is very good and it melts in your mouth easily. Place needs one more size of ice below the small they currently have, and slightly lower prices. Ice tastes fine, but is slightly too sweet for my liking and would prefer a less concentrated fruit taste within the ice. Lots of potential here for a great waikiki hangout spot. Decor and atmosphere inside is great as well.
Miles
Pretty good creamy shaved ice. Unless you're sharing, get the small. Lots of toppings and a decent selection. They give students discounts as well.
Kevin Hao
Tasty but they need to hire more help!!! They had one person working the register and making all the desserts in a hotspot area. Line out the door. Really unfair for her to be overworked like this, you should always have at least two per shift. She was very sweet and helpful, worked the line as best she could, despite all of that.
Bob Smay
This is not the same shave ice you've had before. Do yourself a favor and try this! My son and I ordered two small servings, both delicious and sizable, and then decided we needed to try more flavors so we ordered two more of the minis, which barely fit in the bowls. Go early in your trip so you can go back for more!
Alex Dunnett
If you like ice... you will love Ice Monster. Go Mango!
Ana Torres
Delicious Ice Cream. Had to go back for more.
Karl Konic
Just love this place. Good staff had the small coffee flavor this done 2 of of us. Great taste.
Maggie
Best shave ice anywhere
K H
Cute shop, son loved his shave ice 🍧 …
Michael Bueno
its good.... but they should rename their small to lil monster, so i can order a ice monster (IM) lil monster, or a "I'm a little monster" -Monster by IRENE and SEULGI
Susan C
Wow!!! We had the Mango Sensation and it was absolutely amazing... this is the super upgrade version of shave ice and the addition of panna cotta and fresh fruit pushed it over the top. Even if the line is around the block, totally worth the wait.
Bryan Heft (randomhobo)
The flavors are so amazing and the ice monster is big enough for 4 people! This is the small!
Roger Zhou
Fantastic place to get Taiwanese-style shave ice in Waikiki. The ice is so light and fluffy making the texture almost creamy. We ordered the pineapple shaved ice. It was served with a scoop of sorbet and a bit of panna cotta. The fruit was fresh and sweet. The price is a bit high but the portions are huge. The small size was more than enough for my wife and I to share.
Tommy Tow
While walking we saw this place, so we decided to give it a try and I was not disappointed. We got the Mango Sensation and it was amazing. It's on the pricy side, but it very good. It's not the local traditional Hawaiian shaved ice they normally sell on the islands. I do recommend trying this place.
Michael Yuan
Decent place for shaved ice!
James Ruvio
Great dessert place to take family while stay-cationing in Waikiki. Great options for kids with boba drinks and popsicles. The wife and I had the green tea ice monster and it was delicious, not too sweet but just right. Kids already asking to go again tonight and it's already in the plan.
Michael Chang
Not sure if this place is a good indicator of what Shave Ice should be like, but I really hope not. I found Ice Monster to be average. The texture of the ice was very nice and smooth, but the pineapple flavor I got was extremely tart. I had to stop eating about half way through because it was just too sour.
Benjamin Sanchez-Lengeling
They get the combination of ice, flavor, pana Cotta, and boba/jelly just right!
Sonya Chen
Got the mango sensation and it was amazing! Every part of it was delicious: the ice, the sorbet, the mango chunks, the pan cotta. Also, I’m a big fan of the decor. Their branding is on point 😂 …
Amanda Bui
Soooo good!!!
I went to a couple of shaved ice places while in Hawaii, and this one was by far the most amazing!! They blend ACTUAL FRUIT with ice so that the resulting shaved deliciousness is just a delicious, soft, fluffy, and creamy treat.
Yes it is expensive compared to say Matsumoto's but you're getting something miles better than just ice and flavored syrup. I recommend getting the minis or small and sharing with others to get your hands on as many flavors as possible. I was so sad to have only found it on my last day in Hawaii.... I would've totally gone there again and again had I known earlier...
Amy Zhou
Delicious ice dessert - super fine ice with flavours similar to what you find in Taiwan and Korea. Portions are large - I found it a bit too sweet after a while, so good to share with 2-3 people. Lots of seating available.
Jessica Lieber
Never had shaved ice before, but wow so good! So light and fluffy.
Christian Costa
What a treat!!! We got the papaya flavored ice cream monster sized! So it's a super light fluffy shaved ice and the texture is almost cotton candy meets ice cream. That's the only way to explain it! Served with warm boba balls on the side, flavored sorbet, and a creamy flavored jello like custardy thing that was amazing! It's the perfect size for 2 people to share, but they also have a smaller sized serving! Cant wait to come back and try the other flavors!
Kristina Kolpack
The serving sizes are huge! We probably could have shared but hey we were in Hawaii. The strawberry was my absolute favorite. The presentation was lovely and the taste was even better.
Steve Vu
Good place to have dessert for the family after a walk. Nice and clean place in Waikiki.
Efren Oxlaj
Really nice shaved ice kind of deserts. The guys taking the orders were also super friendly.
J O
The shave ice is decent, typical Taiwanese style shaved ice. The portion sizes are huge but the prices you pay are way too expensive. $14 for a fruit flavor shave ice with barely any toppings? What a ripoff.
They also do not validate parking so you gotta park somewhere else and walk over.
However, they do a Kamaina discount which is 10% off if you show your ID.
Geoff Stimpson
It was good, but limited selection of "cheap" ($8) ices. The Monster size is big, but I would invest the $15 in two desserts elsewhere... If the traditional Hawaiian shave ice is too sweet for you, this place has good options.
Keira Chu
My favorite place in the whole wide world!
I
Shaved ice is good. Milk Tea is undrinkable.
Jose De oliveira
HUGE serving, texture was different to the other shave ice stores visited which i loved. Would have come back here again if i had the time on my trip. I ate this by myself but sitting at the table next to me, a family of 4 struggled to finish so definately worth it.
Jeffrey Zheng
*they don't validate for Hyatt parking*
Absolutely delicious shaved ice. We tried to the fresh mango sensation and loved it. Ice was soft and mango was fresh. There was fresh mango pieces as well as a scoop of Panna cotta which we really enjoyed. Having different textures really made the dish special.
It is quite pricey in our opinion.
Lenchik
Thank you for being open till late! Huge portions, definitely to share ☺️
Joseph Lam
Delicious and refreshing dessert. Everything was really high quality tasting.
Jun Cabahug
Wow. You must try the this ice cream. If you like shave ice you will definitely enjoy this. They offer big servings for two or more people and great for family bonding. The lines get long but worth the wait.
Jenny T
The Louis Vuitton of Shave Ice. At starting prices of $12, it is double or triple the price of other shave ice out there. But it's also different. The ice itself has the flavour, so no syrup is required. The shave ice is shaved into fluffy long pieces, decorated with fruit and cream. This is a premium shave ice product and worth trying once
Lauren B
Super yummy monster ice, shared a small pineapple ice and was super impressed. Delicious, cooling, filling!
Johan Alwall
Awesome Taiwanese-style snow shaved ice place! Best part is the mango shaved ice is vegan, and they have a delicious soy sorbet - get the boba on the side for some extra chewiness! :-)
Cullen
Great dessert spot at the end of a Waikiki evening!
cynthia herrera
It's light, it's delicious. I love boba.
Rizlie Villanueva
Post CoVid. Shaved ice is so fine and smooth. Delicious. It's total sweetness overload. The popsicle slowly melts and you can hear the crushed sound as you bite. I tried the green tea flavored shaved ice and I liked it!
Tommy Shih
I love the original Ice Monster in Taiwan, and the one in Waikiki is just as delicious! Taking away a star because it's 3-4 times more expensive here. What costs about $4 in Taiwan is $13-14 here! But, they gave good flavors and good boba 🤙🏻 …
Shadow Nak
Wow, I’m going to give this experience a 5 star rating because of the unique experience of eating pineapple frozen and shaved.
I’m very familiar with the Taiwan Snow offerings and this is a more pure, simple, fruit only, anytime of day type of experience. Really, eat this for breakfast, lunch and dinner and it won’t disappoint.
Note: maybe more alarming is the Boba. Much more authentic to a Matcha experience with two versions of boba. This too could actually be an all day offering as well.
Bring the family and friends. I’ll come back.
Randevu Travellers Inn
Superb! Reasonable price.
Jacob Kapala
The papaya milk (small) was amazing! Not too sweet, great flavor, and fluffy. One of my favorites out here.
Logan Schantz
First time trying this kind of shaved ice, and it was fantastic! The staff gave us free samples before we decided what we wanted, and were super friendly. This place is a secret gem and easy to walk to!
Claire Nguyen
The shaved ice was delicious. It was the actual shaved ice and not flavoring that is poured over the ice shavings. The portions are huge! We can't wait to visit again.
Tommy
Green tea shave ice was good. Their boba was yummy. The black sesame ice cream was a bit weird for me though.
Shinaah Thao
Best shaved ice cream I've ever had!
But even better was the super friendly and fast service. A nice young gentleman brought our ice cream to our table.
Brett Reid
Very friendly staff with unique desserts.
Nona
Their shaved ice is ridiculously soft, I’m surprised they aren’t packed constantly. A hidden gem for sure
Jennifer Bustamante
This place was amazing and would definitely go again. Me and my boyfriend found it walking the streets of waikiki. We wanted a cold treat and found this place interesting. There was the sweetest lady that worked there all by her self and provided us with the best service. We were just going to get one cold treat here but ended up getting 2, it was just that good!!
José Ugai
Anew found Jem....the mango one is specially delicious
Patrick Colburn
If you have tried Hawaiian Ice but want something possibly better then get here, it feels like the fluffiest snow you've ever felt. Tasted amazing and was perfectly refreshing after a long hot day, their small was plenty for two.
Basil Rassam
A real ice flavoured. The flavour is originally mixed with the ice and not only a poured colour on plain ice. In addition there is real fruit. It seems also that The machines are high quality too. Well done Ice Monster. Highly recommended.
Marshall Silver
If you like Asian deserts don't miss this place. The mango was amazing.
tim slear
FYI: No restroom public or employee. Closest Restrooms are 2 doors East at Nordstrom or one block further at International Market Place. Also no parking available. There are several public parking garages a block away or if you're fortunate to find any-- spaces along the Ala Wai Blvd. Two blocks away.
Ice Monster is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. DAILY. They use UberEats and DoorDash delivery.
Samah Abedalaziz
Amazing shave ice
Chi Zhou
Good ice cream. Suggest going for mini sizes so that you can try multiple tastes. Monster size is not necessary cuz after a few spoons, it’s the same.
Christopher Schomberg
The popsicle was so good we got the small strawberry sensation. Not the same thing as Hawaiian shave ice but fantastic on its own.
Dave Leopold
Ice has consistency if ice cream is the best shave ice anywhere no lines and discounts to veterans and students this place rocks so good 10 times better than that other shave ice place island ice The employees here are so
Friendly
Don Pablo
Quite good. Good on a hot day like everyday.
Justin Lee
Good little place to have desserts, the shaved ice was surprisingly creamy and refreshing. Good atmosphere.
Quan To
Expensive but the shaved ice was sooooo good. We came back four times in our week vacation in Honolulu.
Misty Gregg
I visited Hawaii on Honolulu and the experience with ice monster shaved ice is amazing. Even though I only tried one flavor, I know that this ice monster is great
Gina Kemp
Shave ice that is fluffy and tastes so great. Comes with panna cotta and Jello cubes. Coffee, pineapple and mango all excellent!
Alex Lu
Oh No! Don’t show this place to your kids, they will ask you to come every day!!! The mango flavor is the best!
Shelly M (Another Cat)
Wow Wow Wow !! Never had something like this before.
Seven inches tall of fluffy great taste. So light! Looks like cotton candy.
Fresh fruit on the side, Panna Cotta and scoop of sorbet. Some have a syrup side too.
Will be back tomorrow!
Storm Haole
We both had the coffee sensation !!! Absolutely amazing !!!
Jas Bless
If you can come at a time without a line it's worth it. The shave ice melts in your mouth. It's like eating a sorbet cloud.
Cody Charron
A little different than the traditional shaved ice, but oh so good. The mango is out of this world with a very natural flavor.
David Pollak
It’s shaved sorbet not shaved ice. Get your facts straight.
Nathan Yuen (Bogaboo)
Actual shaved ice but very thinly sliced. Different then snow cones but just as good.
Lam Nguyen
This place is worth to stop in . I had a sample and immediately bought a mango ice . The place is super clean and nice staff . The manager Keito is very kind . Highly recommended and definitely will come back !!

The shaved ice was good but it was incredibly slow. It didn't seem like there was any effective process in place to get through the line of orders.

Scotty Eastwood
Best shave ice I’ve ever had. It’s like if cotton candy had a baby with shave ice this is what you get! It melts in mouth and is so fun. Definitely would go again!
Jonathan Redaelly
Ice Monster is simply awesome. Our mango ice bowl was amazing and very refreshing from the humidity and heat of Waikiki. The mango sorbet and mango chunks only serve to elevate the flavor of the entire treat. Our cashier Ava was very welcoming and attentive. The artist behind our treat, Arrix was also very helpful and friendly. Thank you all for providing the best sweet end to our trip.
Liann Sun
the best shaved ice we had on the island! we preferred it to places that shaved plain ice and then added syrup.
here, the entire ice was flavoured first, then the ice was finely shaved. we had the papaya flavour which was creamy
Jason Bosch
My son loved the popsicles. I hated the strawberry shaved ice bowl. Way too sweet. I just ate the strawberries and tossed it, and I usually love shaved ice
Paige Nelson
First of all the service I had here was amazing! The worker was so sweet and even reminded me about a student discount which was so great because this is definitely on the pricier side... but it is so worth it! I got the matcha one and it was AMAZING. So fun it came with condensed milk, boba, charcoal ice cream scoop (I believe), and a drizzle of something over the matcha shaved ice. SO so good would recommend to a friend for sure. The small is $11, but $9 with a student discount. The small was still so big I would say to get that one.

Came here and loved my mango ice monster! The staff was pleasant and what seemed like the owner, noticed that we were in a bit of a rush with our order (our 5 mo old was getting a bit fussy while we were waiting for our order) and he kindly asked sped up the process of our order. Can’t thank you enough for noticing that. Great service and tasty treats! Definitely recommend you check this out when you come to Hawaii!

Brown sugar tapioca is very delicious! It was so delicious that I wanted to double or triple the beans ♫ ^ ^
The shaved ice is large, so it's just the right amount to share with two people. Korean style solbin size 🍧
The store is on the first floor of a hotel along a big street, so it's easy to enter.
It's a shop with a kind Japanese uncle, so Japanese is OK 👨

The matcha sensation was so delicious! !
The sesame ice cream inside was excellent. I will come again when I come to Hawaii

In all of Hawaii I have not found a place AS clean and organized as this on covid issues. All of their workers were wearing gloves and masks. Congratulations on that. Now, speaking of shaved ice, it's delicious. As soon as I tried it I said "it looks like I'm eating a cloud 🤣". I ordered the mango one and my husband the strawberry one, both were delicious, but the mango one was my favourite.
Best place in Waikiki for a shaved ice. The texture and so soft and fluffy that you will forget it's just shaved ice. I ordered mango, my husband ordered strawberry. Mando was my favorite, although both were delicious. I think if you buy the monster, you can share it with someone else 😅 super super recommended ❤

My daughter recommended me to come here. I heard that there is a line in Japan, but in Hawaii it's always rattling.
I've been to Snow Factory, which is popular in Japan, and it's always empty. But I think I'll probably go to the store next time I visit.

We shared a small of Milk Tea Sensation for two.
Panna cotta is attached to milk tea shaved ice, and it is eaten with brown sugar tapioca.
I don't really like shaved ice, but this shaved ice was so fluffy that I didn't get a headache, and the brown sugar tapioca was chewy and delicious.
Since the amount of shaved ice is large, there were many people who shared and ate.

I have never eaten it in Japan. It was my first time. This is half size. I ordered matcha. Accented with grated black sesame seeds. Milk is poured over the top. Milk pudding on the side? Is there a little extra tapioca brown sugar? I got the taste.

Opening in Waikiki on February 1st. Select S or L size at the cash register and order. They will give you a numbered ticket and bring it to your seat. The mango flavor from Hawaii was the most delicious. It was relatively empty when I used it after 2 p.m. Will receipts be emailed or printed? I choose.

Since it had just opened and it was at night, there weren't many customers. The kids were happy to eat it, but it was a little cold at night.

I was offered something different from what I ordered, but when I explained the situation, it was handled properly.
Even the small size was enough. The fresh mango sensation was delicious.

It was very delicious, but it took a long time from ordering to being served, probably because the arrangement was bad. However, since it is Hawaii, no one complains. (smile)

I went there after dinner on a Sunday night in June. The store was empty because it was late. The three of us shared a small mango 🥭 taste 🍧 It was a texture that I could not tell if it was ice or pulp. ,I was surprised.

It was very delicious.
The ice is smooth, so it's recommended for those who don't like the cold.
The one I ate was the small size.

Hawaii exclusive items. It's very empty and you can do it slowly.
