Reviews of Wailua Shave Ice Portland
Emily N
The ice was delicious! We got 3 different kinds and all 3 were great. Fairly short wait considering, yummy ripe fruit on top.
Just short of 5 stars due to the ordering process. When you walk up, it is mobile order only. This would be okay, except the cell service in the hallway where they are located is spotty at best. Of our group of 3, only 2 were able to get through to the website to place orders, and it was extremely slow with only 1 bar coming and going. Getting our orders in took significantly longer than waiting for our shave ice itself.
Kaya Peterson
I honestly can’t describe how delicious the Ube shaved ice was here. Possibly one of my favorite desserts of all time. The portion was huge which was great because I did not want to stop eating! The shaved ice was sweet, light, refreshing, and flavorful (ube with coconut). FYI you order online and it is a pickup window- no seating in the shop. My order took about 5min. I’m already planning the next time I can stop by!

Wailua is super fun! We were expecting the kind of shaved ice where it’s a bit chunky, but it was really smooth, almost like snow. The flavors were excellent, the presentation is very pretty, and the portions are impressively large. Trust me, you’ll love it.
You have to order online, even when you’re there in person, and they’ll call your order out when it’s ready.
Rkasian
Quick, delicious, good price!
We ordered on the phone, the process was very simple and easy.
The wait was under 5 minutes (we came in February and it wasn’t busy)
I’m sure it gets a lot busier in the summer but definitely worth it!
We ordered the Ube shaved ice. Delicious, not too sweet, huge portion!!!
We will be back!!
Mari Dekle
This place is so crazy good!! I've never had shaved ice like this in my life, if i could get this every day i would. They are currently only taking online orders and the wait after ordering is about 10 mins. So refreshing and delicious, did not taste artificial and so well priced. Would absolutely come again, complete 10/10.
Olive
Wailua is soo delicious I am soo happy we tried it out! I was nervous to order the ube flavor as I’ve never tried ube before, however, I loved it!! The cream they put on top really ties the whole treat together. I want to go here every single day!!!

I have been a fan since I discovered Wailua Shave Ice in a little passage way near Powell Bookstore. Online ordering by scanning a QR code. Today, it was all about Mango Shave Ice. Chunks of fresh mango atop the snowy mound of shave ice with delicious mango syrup and coconut milk.
Liane H.
Really good. The one in Kauai is great too. This is the smaller size and it was plenty big. I got mine with snowcap (condensed milk) and ice cream. So yummy. You have to order ahead and they run on Hawaii time (so like 10ish minutes behind the time you pick) but we'll worth it.
Maninder
I am normally not the biggest fan of shaved ice but this place was amazing. The Ube shaved ice is a must get. It melts quite quickly so I would recommend getting a smaller size. Seems like the perfect treat for a warm day but was equally wonderful on a nice spring day. They have their website posted outside and you can just order online.
K Haverty
If you are into shave ice, this is the absolute best you’re going to find. I ordered a lava flow with extra syrup and glitter, and it was excellent. The bad news is that you cannot call an order in, or even order it at the store front. You have to order online. And in order to process your payment , you have to have one of three very specific payment options. You cannot PayPal for this or enter your credit card. It was not convenient for me as someone who had never used Apple Pay before. The second challenge is that there is nowhere to park. Because your order will be ready at a specific time of their choosing, you need to be in front of the store to pick up your order at that time. We paid $8 to park and then another $10+ for the shave ice. It was definitely worth it, but not something I would do often.
Shareen Wornson
I was thinking snow cones but this is SHAVED ICE and it has nothing to do with snow cones. It is SO MUCH BETTER!!!!! I am only sad they don’t have more locations because if you don’t live here (or Hawaii) you are missing out! Sweet and fluffy and delicious! I had the Ube and highly recommend it!
Adrian
In love with this place, always wanted to try Hawaiian shave ice. First time here was amazing, the almond joy one it’s just delicious. A lovely piece of Hawaii in Portland.
Sophie Wang
Mahalo! This is the best shaved ice I’ve had outside of Hawaii’s very own Shimazu; which is saying a lot! This shaved ice is so thin, it melts at the right heat, hardly sticks to the tongue or wooden spoon. I may say this tops my favorite shaved ice because the flavors are so concentrated and wonderful! I ordered the mango one (no Keiki size for me!) and the mango juice tasted fresh, like a true juice rather than flavoring. Whoever pours this juice is a master; not a single drop excess or a single drop less, my ice from the top to the bottom was completely mango ‘orange’. I brought my friend and she also agreed it’s the best aside from Oahū! The perfect treat on a hot day or low-cal (but sugary) dessert to end the night. I would return again and again if I could! Nothing beats fresh SHAVED ice. Be sure to walk inside the building!
Jasper Tam
Ordered Ube with Ube moose. The coconut milk and sugariness add in by default drowned out any Ube flavors…
The shave ice texture is on point. Had I closed my eyes and was told is just coconut shaved ice I would give a better rating. The purple is just food coloring unfortunately.
Also no trash cans… lucky the swee2O next door didn’t mind taking the bowl when we went in for their taro drink.
Talalelei Kaneen
Best broke da mouth shave ice in the NW...Reminds me of back home...Ube flavor hands down the best!!!🤙🏽
Mahalo …
Karen K
Stopped by after visiting Powells. We ordered on their website and although there were a lot of people ordering, the wait was pretty quick. We had the Wailua Sunrise and the Ube one and they were both great!
Joselyn Murguia
I got to try the Triple Coconut shaved ice, which consisted of a coconut milk base topped with Haupia foam and garnished with toasted coconut pieces. It was light and fluffy. It had a pronounced coconut flavor, and was perfectly sweetened. The Haupia foam made everything more creamy, while the toasted coconut brought the whole thing together. I loved all the different textures. I would definitely recommend to all coconut lovers.
I also got to try the Orange Dream shaved iced, which consisted of orange and coconut milk base topped with Haupia foam and garnished with fresh orange bits. It was slightly tangy but creamy at the same time. The shaved ice tasted like fresh squeezed orange juice, but creamy. I recommend it if you like citrus flavors.
I will be back to try other flavors!
Waterflutterby
This place has such yummy shaved ice, I got ube flavor and it was the best. The ice is really feathery in the sense that you can't just suck the flavor out of the ice, since the ice will melt on your tongue. And it also isn't too sweet. All in all, I think the shave ice here is really good.
Eddie Tajima
My daughter brought me here because she said this was the best shave ice she's had outside of Hawaii. She's a fan of the Almond Joy - and it's definitely tasty - but I tried the Wailua Sunrise (always try the namesake product, right?) and it was delicious.
The flavor (if you order with regular syrup) is there but it's not a in-your-face, high fructose corn syrup, diabetes-causing sweetness so if you're a sweets junkie, you might try ordering it with extra syrup. The toppings which were nice and fresh were presented delicately balanced on the bed of soft shave ice.
The location of the shop is excellent too. Being from Vegas, I'm used to super sized/oversized, glitzy/glammy shopping malls/centers. Wailua is literally in an alleyway that connects SW Oak and W Burnside Streets. Microstores line both sides of the alley - the whole place is cozy, beautiful, and full of light and warmth.
Jessica Clements
This was the best shave ice we had all trip. It's not the cheapest/most affordable on the island but you pay for what you get. They use all natural syrups and fresh fruit (I even had fresh mango on mine!) in their shave ice and it really makes a difference. We will be back when we're back on the island.
Prerna Pickett
Best shave ice outside of Hawaii. The ice is so soft and the flavors are amazing. We love taking our family here whenever we venture downtown!
momo
I wish we had this in Seattle. I am NOT a fan of shaved ice because I always feel they skimp out in the flavors and the consistency is always lacking, but Wailua proved me wrong 2 years ago. This is always my favorite place to visit whenever I return. My two favorites are always the Pina Colada or the Oranges Shaved Ice. I should honestly try to venture out and try other flavors, but they make these so addicting it's hard to want to try anything else. I love the energy of the staff here. They are always fun and upbeat!
Denycia Haley
Super refreshing and delicious. I wish there were more seating areas in this complex so there was actually somewhere to eat this but don't let that keep you from giving it a try.
Imani
Sooo good!
I don't even care that it's cold outside, that's how good it is!
I haven't tried everything on the menu, but I hope some day I will!
The fruit they use always tastes fresh, and the Keiki size is big enough for me, but the regular size seems perfect for a couple to share!
I wish I could give them six stars...😞
Laura Alexandra
It was good, but it is very confusing when you order online, because they say that the order is ready and it isn't. Sometimes this place gets very busy and is difficult to understand when they call your name. I wish I could get more fruit for the price that I paid, and more content because I ordered extra ice cream and I ended up paying more for the same quantity. overall it was good
Millie
I am in love with this place I want to eat their shaved ice and walk along the beach every day until I die. The shaved ice is so light and fluffy and they have great flavors! Order ahead on their website for pick up during covid times.
Alexis Chinn
Yum!!! So good. I got the Almond Joy and my husband got the Damango One. So freaking good. It’s like the actual shaved ice not the snow cone kind. But actual shaved ice. It somewhat small and crowded in there but you could easily stand out side and here your order. They take cash and card which is very nice. This would be a wonderful place to go during the hot summer after visiting Powell’s Books. Good treat. 100% suggest this place.
Teri Bench
This was delicious! One size $6.50 and $1 if you want ice cream (I recommend!)
We tried the Love Potion, lava flow, triple coconut, orange dream and pina colada (not all on the same day)
that one reviewer
Amazing ice cream on a hot day I come here every time after I go to Powell books it's fun to watch them make the ice by hand my favorite thing to do is order vanilla ice cream with real vanilla bean and love potion on top taste like cheese cake
Sy Bor Wong
So ono! This shave ice joint hits the spot and reminds you of the quality flavours found in Hawai'i. It's pretty authentic given the limited supply of fresh tropical fruits and ingredients. I was really hoping for lilikoi and other local flavours but it was good enough with the mangos, pineapples and strawberries. I recommend adding ice cream to the base of your shave ice. It makes it so much more satisfying. Definitely will return.
Becky Torres
This place is a hidden gem, small but has great items to chose from. I had the "Lava Flow" Pineapple Juice, Coconut Foam, Strawberry Puree,
Pineapple & Strawberry Fruit Topping and my daughter had "Wailua Sunrise" Orange Juice, Pineapple Juice, & Pineapple Orange Fruit Topping. So many other to choose from a place to definitely go to if your visiting Portland. The service is quick and very friendly.
Roxy Davis
Made sure I made 2 stops in my one day trip to Portland! I've been to their Kauai location and it is just as authentic. Super trendy location, and staff was friendly. Order the special, you can never go wrong. Hurry and open up a franchise in Fort Lauderdale please! :)
Karen Apollony
I love this place!! The ube shave ice was a perfectly sweet, light and refreshing afternoon snack! The online ordering system was easy and quick. I’m visiting Portland and really wish we had a place like this back home on the east coast!
FOOD REVIEWS
Delightful. I got the coconut shaved ice with coconut foam sprinkled with toasted coconut. It was light, flavorful (not the artifical kind) and perfect after a heavy meal. Get the Keiki, kid size. Order ahead online.
Alex Choi
Shaved ice was good but wished the flavor was dispersed throughout the shaved ice not just down the middle. Would like to try different menu in the future.
Faye Comer
I loved it. The comments from the others I was with... they wanted more vibrant flavors. The shave ice portion is huge, but super light. Delicious.
Renan Milo
5 stars for food. Beautiful and tasty. Had the Orange and Ube flavors - both were light, fun, perfect desserts.
2 stars for at-store shopping experience. Ordering through a website is ultra-annoying: scan poster with QR code, walk outside to get cell coverage, navigate to website, order pickup location 100 feet away, enter too much personal info, type in credit card info, select obscure options from text menu, instantly get text message that the food is ready, wait another 15 minutes captive in a crowded hallway for your name to be shouted through tiny window.
Why not place a digital kiosk with friendly UI and photos of options?
Even better - have a friendly person clarify options and take the order.
Joshua Poulivaati
Shave Ice...finally real Hawaiian Shave Ice. When I moved to the mainland as a kid, I couldn't understand Portlanders infatuation with sno-cones. This is the real thing like back home. The finely shaved ice with the flavored juices is so Ono that I longed to be back in Hawaii. I tested the Mahalo Mango and Locals, Mahalo🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽. The place is small and it can get very crowded very fast. If you've had Hawaiian Shave Ice before, go try and realize how Ono da buggah is...if you never had before, go try, you'll be hooked and wanting for them to add more flavors. Wailua Shave Ice, Mahalo Nui Loa!!! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽
Garrett N.
A little bit of much needed aloha in PDX. Online orders only right now with easy pickup window. The ube coconut was ono!! 🤙 …
Abraham Wong
This was a great refreshing treat on a warm day. It was delicious and light. Shave ice is definitely something I've missed since getting back from Hawaii. It's not as decadent as the ones I got on the islands, but it's still really good. I did especially like the Huapia Foam topping that I've never had before.
James Kim
Great taste and great price. You need to order online (only) and there was no service right by the by store, so I had to order at the sidewalk. But the order came out very quickly
Amy Homer-Brown
Super yum shave ice! Boyfriend is Hawaiian and he claims it's legit...stamp of approval! 💯The Lava Flow is their most popular flavor but it was a bit sweet for me. I preferred this Orange Dream which has delightfully soft flavors and isn't super sweet. Great place for shave ice! …
Andrew Lee
I really enjoyed the shave ice I had at Wailua. It was in the high-80s so I was really surprised more people weren’t in line. It’s located in the Union Way group of storefronts. The owner seemed really nice and was definitely from Hawaii based on his gregarious personality. I had the pineapple strawberry shave ice with haupia cream. It was such a nice balance of tart pineapple, rich haupia cream, and sweet strawberries. The shave ice was a nice treat on a hot day. I hope to visit again someday.
Andy S
To get here, you need to go inside the Union Way complex and walk into the hallway. Their shaved ice here is awesome. They serve generous portions, I had the
Kayla Cho
Great service and dont forget your stamp card because the shaved ice here is SOOO GOOD. The texture is so fluffy that it melts in your mouth far better than any snow cone. There are many options of flavors and toppings to add onto your shaved ice such as ice cream. I really love Da Mango One and Love Potion #9. Will come back again!
Daisy
AMAZING. The shave ice is very soft and practically melts in your mouth. Made with real fruit. The atmosphere is great, with great vibes and nice workers. It is a big portion for the price which is great. The only downside is that there is not much seating since it is a very small place, and the few seating areas that are available get taken quickly due to the vast amounts of people that go there, but that is not a negative thing because it shows just how great Wailua Shave Ice is! I got “Da Mango One” which was DELICIOUS.
Olivia Erickson
Been here before, really do love the place. They are doing a Frozen Mint Hot Chocolate special, which even has marshmallows, and a Ube special right now. Delish as always!
Karen H
It was really good! I LOVED Da Mango One, the mango and condensed milk reminded me of a mango sticky rice dessert.
I can't wait to go back! 🍧
chris Lea
When it comes to shaved ice, I am what one might call an addict. And when it comes to Shaved Ice, Hawaiian style is always the way to go. This place was top-notch. They had a solid, simple selection of flavours and the ice was beautifully packed. The cream on top and fresh fruit were delightful (lava flow was as tart and sweet and delectable as a real lava flow drink) and the whole experience was wonderful.
For $6, this was a steal and could easily be shared between 2 people.
Lou
lovely, great shop, friendly staff, tasty shaved ice. would be more then five stars if they had frozen custard to go inside, but the vanilla ice cream was nice also.
futural
The ube really is as good as everyone says. Please get it!! Great spot, great ambience, great part of town. I will be back!
Victoria Worden
Best shave ice I've ever had ♡ I got the lava flow, with li hing mui. They use pineapple juice instead of syrup, and topped it with coconut whipped cream, strawberry puree, and fresh fruit ☆
Kim Junkin
Absolutely amazing shave ice! Highly recommend the Ube! 😍 …
Kate Wirth
While I was huge fan on shave ice as a kid, I honestly wasn't in the mood for some the day I stopped by with my mom. She wanted one, so I agreed to share... and I'm so glad I did! Best one I can remember having. Not overly sweet and fantastic flavor (we had the pina colada), I only wish there had been a bit more of the syrup the get it all the way through. Also rather expensive for what it is, but worth the splurge. Love the location in the newish beautiful little shopping center.
KC
Shave ice was nice and smooth as it should be. I ordered the Lava Flow and it tasted like they use canned pineapple juice as the flavoring. Not a fan of that taste at all, but if that floats your boat, go for it! Foam and other topping was good. Would shoot for a different flavor next time. Also plan on waiting for around 20 minutes if things are looking remotely crowded.
Mindy Lopez
Yooooooooo! You have to check this place out! Such a good place for shaved ice! I might even check it out again tomorrow that's how good it was!
Just D
So fresh. Oh my. I got the mango flavor with the ice cream at the bottom. The syrup isn't sticky or anything like that, instead blends with the ice. Again oh my.
Cody Brooks
Unbelievably good. Very smooth and tasty, a good snack after hanging out at Powell’s bookstore
Joy
The strawberry one was surprisingly good!!! I wish there’s more fruits on both of them though(´・ω・`)
But still delicious
Andrew Elegante
Yum! Yum! Yum! Delightful and popular spot for Hawaiian style shaved ice. I had the triple coconut and was not disappointed. Neither were my friends who got a love potion #9.
Pro tip(s): get the ice cream at the bottom (which you can actually do in Hawaii). It's made by the Tillamook creamery. Then go get in your car and drive to Tillamook (on the coast) and gorge yourself on amazing cheese and ice cream (bring lactaid). Or just wander over to the Danner store and eat your shaved ice while you shop.
J G
I'm all about that ube life.. so when I came across this ube shaved ice on Instagram, I knew I had to go ASAP. Location was great, easy to find. The shaved ice itself was subtle, but not overpoweringly sweet. Perfect for a sunny day.. or even a rainy one 😁 …
Sean Klindt
Be prepared to wait in line. This place is popular. However, it's worth the wait. Super friendly employees. My only gripe, they seem to skimp on the ice cream on the bottom. Other than that, this is how shave ice should be prepared.
Hailey Levasa-Helbling
This place is the real deal. Better than anything I had in Hawaii by far - fresh ingredients make their shave ice the best. That haupia foam is AMAZING, I'll be back often!
Mike Ching
Best shave ice I've had since I moved from Hawaii in the 90's. Definitely worth checking out if shave ice is your jam and you're in the area.
Sam
The best! All flavors are delicious. You honestly can't go wrong with any of these. Thank you Wailua staff for all you do.
Sarah Simila
What a cute little shop, tried their lava flow (pineapple juice with strawberry puree and amazing foam and fruit pieces) omg it's so yummy, can't believe it's shaved ice tastes just like ice cream... there's only street parking so may be a walk but seriously worth that and the line to wait... great dessert for a hot day .. if in downtown definitely worth stopping in for...
Ayumi Mizuno
Refreshing but overpriced. 7 dollars with the ice cream but generous portion sizes. It was a great one time treat but probably won't be coming back...
Lydia D
This shave ice was amazing. I had the love potion #9and it was superb. I will reinterpret be going back to try other flavors!
Katrina Palmer
Ube so purple!! And so delicious and refreshing and smooth! Flavor was on point. Looking forward to trying out the triple coconut on my next visit.
S “Bonifide2k9” E
This was just what I needed on a hot sunny day. Haven't had shave ice this good since Hawaii! They have a good selection of flavors, we tried the lava flow, almond joy and coconut. It was excellent, Mahalo!
nuts and bolts photography
Some of the best shave ice (not shaved ice ) around. Tasty and fun selection of flavors. You can add ice cream! And the foam is fluffy goodness.
So Young Chung
Best shave ice in Oregon! Even better than the ones we had in Hawaii!
Ashton Xu
Very good shaved ice, super smooth and worth the price.
Katrina Long
Ordered their Almond Joy shave ice....that was absolutely the BEST shaved ice I’ve ever had in my entire life. I also loved that it wasn’t too sugary. The ice was like eating a fluffy cloud. Worth the trip to Portland, thank you!! 😋 …
Quara
Wow! This place is amazing the foam on too tastes soo good! I highly recommend the Ube one! (The purple on with coconut shavings)
Adam Monnes
Very good! Came out super fast, super tasty! Don't forget to get a snow cap!
johnchen0213
A bit expensive for what it offers. I wish it had more shave ice for the same price. Charging $6 for this size is a bit small.
R Cardoza
Their shaved ice is so good, we couldn't just go once, especially during a heat wave. Their flavors are delicious and not overbearingly sweet! They're the perfect combination to cool off.
Zion Kim
I wish i had something witty to say but i uh just froze up... Cool place and want to come back to try all their other flavors! Got a massive brain freeze but that cause i just need to learn to breath when i eat... sigh
Elmar Ariola (Tomahawk73)
The Shaved Is legitimately made. Caters a wide variety of Island flavors including Ube! If you're missing Hawaii. This place will take you there. Friendly service and nice environment. 🌈 🌊 …
Sherry Lu
Super nice to go on a hot day. Always refreshing, friendly staff and seating available on benches outside. Super yummy, love their shaved ice.
Melanie Somera
The same company that owns the shave ice place my family loves in Hawaii... This is SERIOUSLY delicious.
They have you place your order online, then about 5 minutes later your name is called and you are handed a beautifully delicious treat.
James L. Crockett (JamesDaBear)
As close as you can get to authentically Hawaiian.
Jeremy H.
Thr best, most authentic Shave Ice you can find outside of Hawaii. Aloha spirit!
Kels Gz
Shaved ice now available in Portland! Our second visit is still great! Hoping they have more flavors soon!
Sara Marruffo-Blodget
In my memory, Wailua Shave Ice is amazing. I was really disappointed with today's experience. From the website it's unclear whether online ordering is an option or required, but when you get there you find out online is the only way to order. We didn't order ahead because you have no idea if your order will be ready in 5 minutes or 45 minutes. So we ordered on site from our phone at 2:55pm and got a text that said "your order will be ready at 2:55pm". I assumed that meant the wait wouldn't be too long. After waiting 35 minutes, I checked in about our order because I was worried that maybe it hadn't gotten received. Eventually, we got our order, but had I known the wait would be 45 minutes and that one of them would be too slushy, we wouldn't have ordered. I know running a food business in a pandemic is tough, and hopefully next summer things will be better.
August Heys
Super fun and beautiful ice, the one on the left was me and my friends favorite
Whitney Miskowiec
I'm so jealous of Portland! We visited Kauai earlier this year where the original Wailua Shaved Ice food truck is and couldn't get enough of it. Triple coconut is by far the best choice! Subtle coconut flavor that tastes so true to real coconut, it leaves you wanting more! Perfect amount of whipped coconut cream on top to have a little with each bite! I'd travel back to Kauai just for this shaved ice, as if I didn't have enough reasons to return already...
Richard Triplett
Pretty good but super chaotic place to get shave ice.
Nicole M
Lava Flow and Love Potion *chef kisses* I didn’t know shaved ice could taste so light and airy yet decadent and rich.
Parking situation is yuck but they’re worth it.
Jenny Chu
Best shaved ice I've ever had! I've been visiting this location ever since it was open and always love coming here. The staff are so friendly. The ice is soft and fluffy rather than just crushed ice. Their specials are super good and I definitely recommend you trying them if they are available when you visit. If not, the mango one is my personal fave
Kim Sanders-Hamblin
In the middle of the day on a weekend, there was a fairly long line. The staff kept things moving as best they could and were polite and pleasant for as busy as they were. The shaved ice is a good price for a specialty item, especially compared to what you'd pay at the fair for an artificially flavored ice. Good variety to choose from on menu and unique flavor. Took me back to when I was in Kauai. Be prepared to wait on a weekend during nice weather.
Anthony Adams
Can’t go wrong with the Triple Coconut. Reminds me of the amazing shaved ice spots you can find in Hawaii and when we want to reminisce we order dessert here!
Valeria Rodriguez
Delicious and refreshing shaved ice and would definitely recommend Wailua Shave Ice!
Rachel Himel
It's not your normal shave ice, so I wouldn't go. If you're expecting something casual you would get an average snow cone stand. I had the Lava Flow, and it was so refreshing. The pineapple flavor was completely fresh and just perfect! The shave ice is a good size, too.
Randy Nguyen
Great shaved ice, texture was as fluffy as freshly fallen snow. Got the Lava Flow for my first time here, very tasty. Wait was ~10 minutes.
Crista Ballantyne
Such a great place during the hot summer days! You have to order ahead on your phone, which I don’t mind because you don’t have to interact with more people than necessary during this time. I’m from Hawai’i so my standards for shave ice are really high. The shave ice was thoroughly saturated with flavor, and I like that there are options for li hing mui and snowcap. Only 4 stars because there are only a few flavors to choose from, so it’s a very limited menu.
Leah Goeres
This is the best shave ice I have ever had. Even better than in Hawaii. The coconut foam is delectable. They use real fruit juice and real fruit topping. The ice is the texture of snow. It doesn't leave you weighed down the way ice cream does. It's fun to watch them make it.
Betty Chan
Always a delicious and refreshing treat! 😍 Their ube shave ice special was too die for. 🤤 …
Erica Jahner
Delicious!!! I can't believe I lived so close to this place for so long and never went there. Definitely a place worth trying if you have never been there before.
Freddy Israwi
Definitely a delicious place to visit in Portland
Jacqueline Pak
This place was so good! My boyfriend and I were passing by and saw people eating some shaved ice and thought it looked really good, so we looked at the menu and decided to get the da mango one and it was delicious! You get that nice mango flavored with condensed milk and some more fresh mangos on top. We would like to come back and try other flavors.
Kristin Okumura
I’m from Hawaii and this is the best shave ice I’ve had. The Ube with coconut foam was incredible. I’m still dreaming about it!! Easy ordering with QR code too.
Celina Flores
Wailua Shave Ice is legit. I used to live in Hawaii, and this is Hawaiian style shave ice. If you're unfamiliar, a special machine shaves a block of ice to create a kind of snow which is then formed into a snow ball. Flavored syrups are added and it's sort of like a snow cone, but much MUCH better. In Hawaii, shave ice places typically use syrups to flavor their shave ice like one would a snow cone. But Wailua shave ice makes their flavorings, including vanilla bean milk, ube (purple sweet potato), and others. Everything is high quality and very delicious. So while Wailua Shave Ice carries on the tradition of Hawaiian Shave Ice, they've actually taken it further and elevated the cold treat.
Sydney Sorber
My family's favorite place to come for a sweet treat! Consistently amazing
J Med
Best Hawaiian ice cream we had tried anywhere, including the best ones from Oahu’s north shore and Maui’s Lahaina. The selection is small but every single one is just amazing in flavor. What a difference does a great selection of natural ingredients make! Highly recommended and has been recommending to my friends when they visit Portland and none has been short of amazed.

I'm not exaggerating when I say that I've eaten at over 75 different shave ice establishments over multiple islands and states in the last 10 years. This is consistently the best shave ice Ice I've ever had. You're obviously not going to get the ambiance of the islands but if you're being honest you're not going to get better ice.

OMG, so good. Pay the extra $1.00 and get yours with Vanilla ice-cream! I had one that was like an orange creamsicle, my only complaint was the coconut tasted like toasted coconut and it just wasn't the bomb. The area where it is is so cute, fun urban feel and some seats too! We drove across town while visiting and will do it again. What a treat!
Anna Brown
Orange Dream holy Toledo. The shaved ice here is the best I’ve ever had. Had a notable amount in my time but this business soars. I don’t love the digital ordering to be completely transparent. That’s the only reason I’m giving it a 4 star. My phone was on 2% and my partner doesn’t have a smart phone so it we were crossing fingers that the order would go thru before my phone died. I understand during COVID, but I hope that changes in the future. As for the content, 5/5. Scrumptious.
grace gordon
Amazing service and amazing food! Came an hour early due to miscommunication about opening times and the lovely employee gave a free shave ice, when we came back it was quick, and the ice was incredible! So soft and sweet! Better than any ice cream I've ever had!
Walter Garff
Just like the sister location in Hawaii! My food blogging daughter thought it was the best she had on a recent trip there and brought us here. It is different than the Matsumoto "standard" we are accustomed to but excellent in it's own right.
Great flavor combinations, remember to ask for more flavor syrup when you get through the first syrup-rich layer (it's free). I also recommend a scoop of ice cream in the bottom...Enjoy a taste of Hawaii.
Michael Kim
Always a treat! Love their shave ice as they use only natural ingredients. The story of their origin in Kauai is great too. Way way better than the famous Matsumoto’s in the North Shore. Only slight downside is that downtown parking can be tough. The staff are all super friendly and kids love the places.
Nick Vallely
Great little shaved ice shop in the breezeway there. Can't really go wrong with sugar on sugar on ice, so of course it was delicious! They are not too far off from what you get on Ohau or Maui, with the exception of weather and plastic holders:)
Kismet Kilbourn
Delicious. I was so excited to find out Portland had shave ice. The lava flow was incredible especially with the haupia foam. Great location too, very central to lots of restaurants and just around the corner from Powell's and the Living Room Theater.
Ryan Husser
They only use fresh local fruit, so good! She was excited to tell me about the current specials; in particular currently was the passion fruit that they bring over from fresh from Hawaii - if your craving a healthy frozen treat, sharable size portions, very reasonably priced.
Amanda
Amazing shaved ice! I was skeptical about trying it, thinking it would taste like a mediocre ice cone but this shaved ice is melt in your mouth and has a creamy texture with lots of flavoring. Tiny place but I highly recommend! Across the street from Powell's Books, this is a must stop! Try it with a scoop of ice cream, you won't be disappointed!
Robert Harden
Awesome shave ice! Finally found a place that has shave ice like Hawaii. If you go in the summer time on the weekend, be prepared to spend 15 to 20 minutes in line. But it is worth the wait. Parking is a bit difficult. If you are already downtown, drop on it.
Val Pierce
Amazing. I went to their location in Kapaa, Hawaii while on vacation as well. The best shave ice I had compared to several locations in Hawaii and Portland. No artificial tasting flavors nor artificial colors. Highly recommended!
Natalie Sagiao
Went to this place on a whim for a sweet treat to wrap up a lovely Valentine's Day and I am so glad we did!! We ordered the Ube shaved iced, called Oooo bae, and it was decadent, delicious, and such a true purple in color it was almost too pretty to eat!! The young ladies working the counter we kind and very fast to serve us. We aren't locals, hailing from Washington, but if you have the chance, stop in and treat yourself.
mila plays
Good delicious shave ice.
The way you have to sit there and order from your phone. Taking like 20min to figure it out specially if your not savy with phones is annoying. Almost walked back to my car cux of that. If i didn't have my kids i would of left. AIN'T NOBODY HAS TIME FOR THAT!!!
Melissa Thorpe
Great portions for price. Mango flavored one was very refreshing.
Mckenzie Minette
Amazing shave ice with fresh syrups and fruit toppings that having you craving for more. Exceptionally reasonable for the price with how they pack it high. Very busy during the day and in summer of course but definitely worth the wait!!
Timmi Brushe
I wish we could give them 10 stars!! We hired them for an open house at our office. Hands down best ever service too, our patients kept telling us how good the shaved ice was and how happy they the guys were serving them. Can't wait to book them again for next year !!!
Matt Abdou
This place is awesome. The shaved ice is great and the staff is super friendly. Sometimes it gets busy and you’ll end up waiting a while but it doesn’t happen often.
They do need to fix one problem - the container in which they serve it essentially makes it impossible to take it “to go”. It’s a small cardboard cup on which they balance a half pound of deliciousness. I’ve almost spilled it in the store several times. I tried to carry one home 5 blocks to my girlfriend and just as I got through the front door and tried to put it down it rolled over and dumped everywhere. Some kind of to-go container would be awesome. I’d even pay extra for it!
darren osburn
Been to the one on Kauai more times than I can count. Best shave ice in the island. Finally made it into pdx from the westside when we were craving Hawaii. Did not disappoint. Literally tasted exactly like we were in Kapaa.
I had the pina colada - really good. Probably could have used a little extra juice, but no complaints at all.
Friendly staff and great product- what's not to love!
Brad Stefanelli
Not your typical shave ice place, but much better if you like slightly different flavor combos. Unique combinations that are made fresh from local ingredients. You don’t choose individual flavors like a typical shave ice place.
John Sowell
This is the best shave ice on Kauai and they recently opened a second location in Portland.
For Oregonians used to snow cones, where you run out of syrup and are left with a pile of unflavored ice, this will be a treat. Shave ice has a different consistency that allows the syrups to be absorbed by the ice. From start to finish, the ice is infused with flavored goodness.
Wailua Shave Ice uses only homemade syrups, making for a much better product than other companies that rely on canned products.
Check them out and you'll see why Hawaiians rave about shave ice.
Lina Kwee-Nguyen
Yumm!! Try the coconut pictured here...death by coconut! Crispy toasted coconut flakes ! Get it with Tilamook ice cream!
Honestly
Amazing. Really good Hawaiian shaved ice. Our favorite it love potion number 9...we go here about every other week. Not a lot of seating but it is little and cute.
Yiwen Chen
Love their Ube shaved ice! You can taste the ube flavor even at the bottom of the ice. One thing to note though is that they ask people to make online order then pick up at the store. Remember to place order in advance to avoid the long wait during the weekend.
Libby Friedman Qin
I came here during their soft open one summer after hearing them in a newspaper and waited for 2.5 hours. WORTH IT. I now go back whenever I can and bring my friends too. They are so nice and it tastes so amazing. You can taste the freshness.
Steve Richard
Absolutely the most unique dessert I've ever had in my life. Do yourself a favor and get Love Potion Number 9 with ice cream in the middle. I have no idea how they make this stuff but I can't get enough of it.
Stacie Struble
The line was long (and kept getting longer) but the shave ice was delicious! This is "Da Mango One" and I added haupia, lihing and some ice cream on the bottom.
Highly recommend. But maybe get there as early as you can, or come with the idea you'll be waiting a while. It was worth it, and tastes like the ones I always get when visiting Hawaii.
I'm not sure if the line thing is still and issue, perhaps hype has died down a little, but even if it was, it wouldn't really deter me from going, unless i had somewhere to be. Just bring good company, and you'll be just fine.
Kayla Hokanson
Best shave ice in Oregon! I've lived in Hawaii for 5 years and this is truly da kine🤙😋 they make their own natural syrups by pureeing the fruit. So tasty and right across Powell's Books. Awesome location for a fun trip to Portland. Highly recommend. My favorites are lilikoi and ube. …
Julie Howard
Such a refreshing treat! I enjoyed “Da Mango One.” I added a scoop of vanilla bean ice cream, to be covered with shaved ice and then drizzled with fresh mango juice and sweetened condensed milk, and topped with fresh mangos.
You get a spoon and a short straw so you don't miss any of the juice. But even on a hot August day it didn't melt quickly.
C B
THE REAL DEAL! Hawaiian locals looking for actual shave ice, this is THE place. No blocky ice here. The ice is super fine and the ingredients and toppings are very fresh. This place can get busy but well worth the wait. Especially for those that have been off the rock for a while and are craving some ono shave ice.
Phoenix Black
Really good shaved ice. I shared the Pina Colada flavor with my boyfriend and we both loved it. Relatively small store, with little seating area. The service was fast.
Nick Barker
I never knew Shave Ice could be so impressive, AND TASTE SO SO GOOD! The Orange Dream is outrageously tasty, the people are super friendly, and the Hawaiian vibe will make you want to stay!
Aries Powvalla
Amazing shaved ice with vibrant flavor!
John Karl
A great traditional shaved ice place! It's a small place with quick and friendly service. Most of the flavors are fruit themed, and everything I've tried is delicious. I would highly recommend this place.
S B
The softest shaved ice around. Loved that everything used is all natural [no corn syrup, artificial dyes, etc.] which keeps it from being overly sweet. Good eats on a warm day. Will definitely be going back.
Mandy Savage
Worth the wait! But you still might want to order the day before for faster service. We came down twice during pandemic. Great idea with placing shave ice on table and letting customers go in one at a time to pick up their order. I only put four stars instead of five because one of the waits we had was for 45 minutes even though we ordered hours ahead of time. But this shave ice is totally the real deal. Better than some spots in North Shore that I love.
Jordan Castellanos
Best shaved ice in the city! Absolutely amazing and full of flavor! Go here on a hot or cold day and you'll enjoy. You can even get ice cream at the bottom of your shaved ice!
Jean Dickey
Tried it for the first time last night. Luckily we made it before the line got really long. We tried the Lava Flow, Da mango, love potion#9, and pina colada. Out of the 4 the best ones were the mango and love potion. My 12yr old who loves anything pina colada didn’t care for it and actually couldn’t finish it, it definitely didn’t taste like a yummy tropical drink and my hubby thought the foam on the lava foam smelled like stinky feet, he didn’t finish his either. We were kinda bummed because they looked so tasty. I’m pretty sure we won’t make a special trip back there to have the love potion#9 unless we happen to be in the area. I did happen to see a couple people smell the foam on their desserts while we were sitting there eating ours so maybe the foam has a smell and funky taste or maybe we just got a bad one. 🤷🏻♀️
Dannah Rossignol
Great place on a hot day! You will need to park a walk a few blocks. That's not a bad thing just so you know. You can't park in the vitamin place parking lot. The walk to it is worth it. It's true shave ice NOT a snow cone claiming it is 🤙 …
Yusha Neuman
Authentic Hawaiian shaved ice, hard working staff !
Kai-Lin Tseng
So good for light dessert!!
Ube ♥️
J.P
Easy online ordering system with a time efficient and friendly staff. Great assortment of flavors for a reasonable price
Kallisti
A new must try for portland natives, tourists, and foodies. With new flavors daily, I find myself returning over and over, even on the cold days. The Love Potion #9 is THE BEST FLAVOR and is so creamy with vibrant fresh strawberries and syrup.
Melinda Workman
AMAZING shave ice, best I've ever had. The line was way long, but they move it along very quickly. Super friendly people. Portland is lucky to have them!
LKA M
Amazing place. Such good flavors! Service is great. Too bad it closes too early. I wish they opened till 930 pm which is the time most people crave a night treat !
Victor S
This place was amazing! There wasn’t a line when I went there and the employees are extremely helpful and very patient. The prices are good and not too much but I recommend you share with someone since they give you so much, another tip is to ask for it with ice cream it tastes incredible this way
Lorraine S
For ~6.5 per order and an extra $1 if you want the ice cream in the middle this place was a bit pricey for my taste but I had to try it and "Damango One" especially. It did not disappoint and I had to have it again and again!
Holly
Vegan options!!! Had the triple coconut. Everyone was super nice.
GEORGE MARTIN
The real deal here, straight from the islands. The best shaved ice in Portland.
Jaclyn R
Pretty sure this place has the BEST shaved ice around! Real fruit and the coconut cream they have...OMG! If you like shaved ice you need to try this place out!
Brent Smith
Legit Hawiian Style Shave Ice. Not a sno-cone! Seriously amazing! A bit busy when we went, but worth the wait. Walking distance from Alder St Food carts.
Jerome Rhodes
The perfect amount and the perfect mixture! Never did shaved ice with ice cream before coming here, and it never stops being refreshing
Sergio Gonzalez
Some of the best shaved ice I've had!
Alex Weeks
Cool place if you like long lines and snobby portlanders. Ice is aight. They definitely need to figure out line management though, everyone just kind of walks in and assumes they are first in line because of so many others waiting for the ice while the workers behind the counter dont manage the lines as they grow out of control.
Claire Fountaine
The best frozen treat in Portland! Love the shave ice and the staff. Always enjoy bringing new people here.
Wesley H
Shaved snow tasted great. Ordering was hard. Have to order online even though i was right there. Felt very transactional.
Adam Bobek
This is a great, healthier dessert place. A really good option to help you cool down on a hot day. Just expect a wait, also there is no bathroom here, so plan accordingly.
adrianna ilioi
a cute small place kinda hidden. good service and shaved ice but the love potion could use more flavor but other than that, love it. great way to cool down right now.
Fumi Kelleher Carlson
Wailua Shave Ice came out to our office to make shave ice for a company meeting event. They were super friendly, did a great job making 75 shave ice quickly, and everything was delicious!
Josh Melling
Having grown up in Hawaii i was delighted to discover that Wailua Shave
ice had opened a shop here in Portland. Same great local style shave.
Colbie Corrales
So ono!!! Wailua Shave Ice is the new dessert spot in town. Try the Lava Flow served with an extra side of aloha. It will make your day. 🤙🏽😄 Go check um out!!! …

So delicious! Loved that the bowl and spoon were compostable, but there were no compost specific bins to put them in.
Anastasia Hannam

Desert had little flavor and not much fruit. It really is NOT WORTH THE PRICE or the wait.

It's ok. The flavors do not penetrate the ice though. A tad fancy for shave ice.

Cute Hawaiian shaved ice stand in a covered shopping aisle. Order through their Square shop online, go for a walk around the block, then pick up from the counter. You can imagine this place gets pretty busy on a hot day! If there's lots of people loitering nearby, be prepared for a bit of a wait. Fortunately there's plenty of window shopping to be done in the rest of the aisle, if you're into hipster clothes and goods.
It's difficult picking from all the flavors, but ultimately I ordered the Keiki Ube with Li Hing Mui (sour plum powder). I couldn't really taste the plum powder, but otherwise the shave ice was soft, flavorful, creamy, and did not disappoint.
Natalie Tan
First time trying shaved ice and it was so mouthwatering!
Sara G.
(Translation) Really very good and different from the usual slushes!
