Reviews of Dave's Ice Cream At The Ilikai

Christina Ng

We stayed at the Ilikai and got vouchers for Keiki size which is perfect for me. They don’t have a ton of flavors but they had ones we like. They do sprinkles for free for the kids. Sugar and cake cones are free. The line can get long and there isn’t much seating.

Its our second time visiting and it's still the best ice cream I ever tried. The mud pie flavor (coffee with chocolate) it's my favorite. Excellent place and excellent ice cream.

Arizonaventure

I highly recommend the ube, melon, and Hawaiian mud pie, but there are many yummy flavors to choose from. We sampled a lot of them, and it was hard to choose! The presentation is beautiful. The staff is kind. The resort setting is picturesque. Brings joy to the day.

Dilan Herath

***They have $2 Tuesdays!!!*** Good ice cream, nothing too special or unique. Quite expensive, about $4 for 1 regular scoop or kids scoop (keiki). Sugar and cake cones are free. The Honeydew Mochi flavor did not have any mochi pieces; just a very slight flavor. The Hawaiian Mud Pie was very delicious. The options with chocolate or coffee have strong delicious flavor. Very convenient location on the ground level of The Ilikai Hotel/Condo.

Gabriel Ha

The ice cream is excellent! They have great flavors. Highly recommend the Ube and Green Tea.

Alexandra Nusawardhana

There was a longgg wait (45 minutes) because we didn’t know it was $2 Tuesday! It was worth the wait though, since they will serve customers until the line ends even after they’re supposed to close at 10pm. Lots of unique ice cream flavors to choose from and the workers are super nice!

Therese Andrus-Smith

On Tuesday they have $2 Scoops the line is out the door but for three scoops on a regular day it's approximately $10 it is an awesome treat you should treat yourself it's one of the best ice creams that I have ever tasted and I love ice cream it's not really sweet it's more creamy but you can taste all the natural flavors and it's very light it is an awesome treat and it's owned by a woman and she still works in the store with her employees

Anthony Messina

My girlfriend and I stopped in here for a quick dessert on a Tuesday completely unknowing of the $2 Tuesday. A 2 scoop ice cream was only $4 + tax. In this part of Hawaii I'm sure you can generally expect to pay $10+ for such a thing so I'm glad we came on the right day! The line was a big long although not unexpected given the good deal and ice cream. When we got to the front of the line the people were super cool and quick to let us try multiple flavors before making a decision. Overall good experience and at a very beautiful hotel. Not much more I need to say!

Kayla Lindell

$2 Tuesday’s! Stop in for $2 a scoop. A great deal! Awesome ice cream with a wide variety of flavors. I enjoyed the cake batter best!!

Justine LaLa Story

Very good quality ice cream. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I got to sample our few flavors. All were so good and it was very hard to chose. Highly recommend to try pineapple!

Jean-baptiste Guillemot

Absolutely amazing ice cream, I had a guava sorbet which was extraordinary. Nice service and prices (especially the $2 Tuesdays!). One scoop is enormous btw! 4 stars because we came here for shave ice which apparently they're not doing anymore so quite disappointing...

Loving life

Ice cream was delicious. Service was great. Tuesday is $2 scoop day. Thank you.

Rachel K

I'm not the type to visit the same place twice on vacation but the ice cream here is so good I plan on coming back a third time in four days. The mango sorbet is divine, and the banana split was awesome! Friendly service as well.

Zach Dahlk

Great ice cream in all flavors, and cool ild fashion decorations. Great service too.

Alejandra Juárez-Díaz

So good!! I had the mango shave ice with guava sorbet one day and the other day I had mango shave ice lychee sorbet. Recommend!

Jason

I take my son to this ice cream shop every week. The ice cream is delicious, and the owner is so nice. We usually enjoy our ice cream on the relaxing lani over looking the boat harbor and ocean.

K D

The ice cream and waffle bowls are excellent! The staff are really nice. The wait is REALLY long. There are long lines with 1 person helping customers and the other person doing something else. Why not have more staff during peak times or have both staff helping to get the long line down?

Bogdan Gologan

Delicious, friendly service, great quality ice cream. The chocolate macadamia was the best!

Yakov Gulyy

The coffee fudge ice creams were amazing! The cones are awesome and everything was so creamy🤤 coming back for sure. …

Stephanie McPherson

We stayed at the Illikai in 2019 and had the BEST ice creams there! We still dream if the Ube flavour!!

Wendell Harness

Delicious! I had a pineapple sundae with pineapple ice cream and macadamia nuts. My wife enjoyed her cookies and cream sundae. The people are super friendly. It's a treat getting a treat! 🙂 Also, for those complaining about seating, it's a short walk out to the patio overlooking the marina. 🤩 …

lin Tang

I love Dave’s ice cream because you can select the type of cone, cup, or cake cup. Then you have a choice of XS scoop, one scoop, and two scoops. Then you can just chose any flavor you want( recommend Blueberry cheesecake). And every week they is a holiday like Tuesday is 2$ and Monday is milliary Monday. And the BEST THING about Dave’s ice cream is if you buy there ice cream 10 times, you get a free ice cream

NerdyMe Studio

Okay so I know it might be a hassle to find parking to access this ice cream place but it’s so worth it. It is fresh made ice cream cannot go wrong with that. We are staying in that hotel but I would go through the hassle if I was staying at the Hilton.

Debra Caracol Person

After a great dinner at Pesca top of the Ilikai..topped it off an ice cream at Dave's ice cream! My favorite coconut w/macadamia nuts in a waffle cone! Loved every bite!

Carol Spears

Great ice cream, friendly service and best tasting waffle cones/bowls!

AbyssalFenge

Of all the places, the smell of the waffle cones in this store are like a honey trap. A VERY delicious honey trap. The ice cream I had was really good. Nice thing is that the place is open late, like. 10PM, so I went with a hankering for ice cream.

Erin Cartas Espinel

De-licious! My friends and I had a triple scoop chocolate macadamia nut sundae with hot fudge, caramel, macadamia nuts, whipped cream, and a cherry on top. The waffle bowl was thin, perfectly crispy, and had a great flavor. Also had a shaved ice with pineapple, guava, and coconut. Best shaved ice I've had on any island since they use natural flavors. No neon, fake colors here! The coconut flavor was the only miss for me. The pineapple and guava tasted fresh and yummy. Also, the woman who helped us was really nice!

Tammy C

Okay, so we got $2 per scoop ice cream on Tuesday night special. I probably won't pay $4 per scoop regular price. But for the Tuesday night special, we enjoyed ice cream in the evening. It's fun to have a treat during our vacation.

Max Tomita

One of the best Ice creams on the island. Tuesdays they have 2 dollar scoops! lol They open at 1 right now stop by after lunch. Great selections and if you are looking for something salty, they got popcorn too. Service was great and I left with a smile.

James Hoffmann

I stopped in on Monday with my family for a treat. We were surprised at their “Military Monday” 50% off special. Not expected and very much appreciate their generosity. A wide selection of flavors to include a dairy free Mango sherbet for our son with milk allergies and local flavors we have not tried before. If you are staying at the Hale Koa, walk on over, grab a treat and walk the boardwalk.

Mitch K

This place has some really good ice cream. It’s like an old fashioned place and we really liked the flavor and consistency. And both the sugar and waffle cones were excellent.

Hanna Sorasahi-Hernandez

Amazing ice cream shop inside Ilikai. Quality ice cream with superior customer service. No lines today even it was Tuesday! Waffle made right there was worthwhile to taste.

Curtis Hopper

So refreshing and delicious real ice cream to taste is real. Do not miss out on this treat. Treat yourself you deserve it!!!

R R

Limited hours, but so worth the wait. Great service and seriously Ono flavors! A must try if you are in or near the Ilikai. Specials on Tuesday and a Military Monday deal.

Leading An Unleashedlife

By far the best ice cream and sorbet we have had in years. The shaved ice is delicious and their flavoring is all natural fruits and no added colors. The lady is super friendly and always happy to see us. Highly recommend. Love love love the sweet lady and sweet ice cream :)

Gabriela

Best ice cream!!! Valerie is super welcoming and lovely. The lemon custard was just as good as she promised. My kiddo devoured her selected cotton candy and mint chip combo. Definitely will be back again and again.

Jeremy

This place was great. Really tasty ice cream and shaved ice. Reasonable prices for the area. Lots of seating in the Ilikai.

Creed Potter

Great ice cream, made here in Hawaii. There is always a line at the shop. It meets the gold standard which is Texas ice cream, Blue Bell.

Devon Gibbs

Best ice cream ever. They added marshmallows to it!!!

Rachele

Green tea ice cream is amazing!! Rich and creamy

Erin Minnis

Best icecream! The employee's are all friendly. We came down all 7 night's!! Weeks later my son keeps talking about how good the ice cream is. We will be back for more, next time in town.

S P

Loved the pineapple ice cream. Couldn't taste the ube flavor so that was disappointing. $2 Tuesdays (per scoop) was a nice surprise! They are generous with the portions.

DA JOKER

Best local Ice-cream you can ever get that's made in the island. Workers are great n works hard. Great customer service and very generous 👍 …

Kelcey Morrill

Loved staying at the Ilikai and having Dave’s right there in the lobby. $2 Tuesday is such a steal. And Cheyenne is the sweetest person you’ll ever meet working at the counter. She really made the experience even better!

Leighana Hendricks (Traveltech03)

I visited 2x during my week at the Ilikai and I rarely eat ice cream. It was definitely the scent of the waffle cones wafting through the hotel lobby that pulled me in. The Kona Coffee ice cream was delicious.

Alannah

The best shave ice and assortment of unique ice cream flavors

Gianne Presa

Super convenient if you're staying at the ilikai. Love the smell of the freshly made cones. Pretty good price especially on $2 Tuesdays

Jason Williford

The very best ice cream in the area. The servers were very knowledgeable and helpful in my flavor selection. Discounts on Tuesdays!

Love $2 Tuesday! Great ice cream. My 10-year-old said, ""It's literally magic how they did it!"

chuckanuck

The ice cream is sooooo good 😊 and friendly staff …

Sophie

Tried the ube and hawaiian mud pie. Both were great <33 wish they had some of the other flavours on their website though like the mochi, azuki bean and kulolo

RedPandaz

Their honeydew mochi ice cream is my new favorite ice cream, period. Friendly staff too. Pricey, but so is everything else in Waikiki

Christine

Great service and tasty treats. Staff let us try as many flavors as we liked and the shaved ice was delicious with all natural flavors.

Jennie Zen

This place is delicious. Customer service is great/kind. Tuesdays they have $2 ice cream. I while staying at the Hotel, I had to have one every day.

Peggy Anderson

Fantastic ice cream. The servers were very nice, I think I tried every flavour before deciding. Won't with coconut and pineapple in a waffle cone. SO DELICIOUS!

Dave Monk

I love this place! Great Ice Cream and fantastic service. Every time we go to Waikiki we make multiple visits.

Jimmy Finley

Awesome icecream and service. Military mondays and two for Tuesdays are just the beginning. She always gives discounts and the mud pie is to die for!

Linda Twilley

Ice cream was creamy and delicious, I had Hawaii mud , husband had cookies and cream. Just wish they had more ice cream choices.

Christina Walton

Friendly and helpful staff with delicious shave ice. Condensed milk or added ice cream an option. I love the kona coffee shave ice. Located inside the Ilikai.

Ten Schippnick

I wish I could submit a picture, but it was too good before I realized to take a picture. Try the Ube and you will not regret it! The owner was really nice and you could tell she loves what she does. I hope if I ever make it back to Hawaii I will definitely be coming back. Thank you so much!

roy bouwmeester

Grate flavors and large scoops. Friendly staff and yes they take credit cards and apple pay.

Joshua Urianza

The ice cream is Awesome and the Employee named "Laja or Elijah" (Don't know how to spell his name)- is a very kind and fun guy to talk to. Definitely would eat ice cream here again.

Holly Gadow

We love Dave’s ice cream. We go every day we’re here, and with a family of four their punchcard that gives you a free ice cream after 10 scoops fills up very quickly.

William Britton

The staff are a joy and the mango ice cream was absolutely fantastic.

Kevin Cox

I stopped in today for some shaved ice. It was AMAZING! It was seriously the best shaved ice I’ve ever had. And the young man behind the counter was very friendly and helped me pick out flavors. Y’all check this place out.

MARIA ISABEL GASCON ESPINOSA

Ice cream shop in Waikiki where they sell ice cream and Shave ice or Hawaiian shave ice is an ice-based dessert made by shaving a block of ice and flavoring it with syrup and other sweet ingredients. On the Big Island of Hawai'i, it's also known as "shaving with ice."

Masato Kousaka

Tuesday is a $2 day, so I bought it and ate it in my room. Located on the first floor of the Ilikai Hotel. I paid $2 in cash and put all the remaining coins I had in the tip box at the cash register. Let's prepare 2 dollars + 9 cents (laughs)

Renata Rivera

Really amazing. There were a lot of people but still everything went fast. all very tasty

徳山陽一

The shop is located on the 1st floor of the Ilikai Hotel. I feel that keiki for children is enough for Japanese people. You can also do tastings and everything is delicious.

Zicep5

There is only one place to eat at Ilikai Hotel. Delicious.

Tak N

We are particular about ingredients that are only available in Hawaii. Every Tuesday is $2 Day! ️

GeeGee

Yes best.
