Nice to see something original in town. Homemade ice cream flavors are very unique so I don't mind spending a little more for some flavors I won't find anywhere else. The pineapple Thai basil is something special and worth trying ; my gf was won over her first time trying Wing with this flavor. Wing is actually an artisan shop and is one of the good reasons to stop through Chinatown.

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! I've had my first taste of Wings Shave Ice & Ice Cream about 3-4 years ago at a friend's wedding and it was yummerzzz!!! After dinner with friends and coworkers tonight, we walked the night in Chinatown and headed to Wings Shave Ice & Ice Cream. Website said they were closed but I'm happy that it was still open. I got a scoop of chili mangoes sorbet with a scoop of creamy regular mangoes ice cream! And let me tell you, it's the perfect way to end the night! Homemade ice cream is the best of the best! I have to come back soon for some more chili mangoes sorbet and ice cream!!! 2 scoops was not enough! If you haven't had Wings Shave Ice & Ice Cream then you better get out and make a stop there! You won't regret it. Miller works by himself but he moved quickly and with a smile! The place is sooo cute with drawings in the background and the pink couch, which I forgot to take a photo of! You'll find Wings Shave Ice & Ice Cream at 1145 Maunakea Street Ste 4 Honolulu HI [entrance on N Pauahi Street].

Four and a half stars. Loved the different flavors offered. I finally came here because of a friend who suggested it. I got myself a half and half keiki ice cream cup. However I heard he makes his own waffle cones so I got one to go. Definitely get a waffle cone if you get your ice cream. You cannot go wrong. The flavors are bizarre but in a good way. They blend. I had a taste of black garlic for instance and it was delicious. Of course you don't get the pungent garlic flavor but it comes through perfectly and with the richness of the ice cream it just works. I also tried a Thai basil sorbet that had the flavor of basil but it wasn't overpowering. There were other flavors that I tried but of course I don't have pictures of the actual ice cream because I was too excited to eat it. lol.

This place is a hidden treasure in Chinatown. Ice Cream is fresh and delicious. How did we miss this all these years...

Is hard to find parking but once you do, do yourself a favor and go here for ice cream in Chinatown. The service is with a smile and the music was fun and upbeat. It's a grab and go place with no sitting inside but look around. Cute fun decorations and have a great combo

My husband and I saw the good reviews for this place and decided to give it a try tonight. They don't allow you to try anything before buying, so you're going in blind to the unusual flavors. My husband and I decided to try Choco Monkey, which was a chocolate, banana, coconut blend. The flavor was okay, but not great. But what caused us to stop in our tracks and immediately throw out the ice cream was the very long hair I pulled out of it. It was clearly not my hair, as it was longer and we didn't even see it until we'd taken a few bites. I literally had to pull it out of the single scoop of Choco Monkey, and it was a very long piece of hair.The single scoop of Choco Monkey with a side of hair cost $5.75, which seems quite pricey as well. Not to mention they asked for a tip for scooping a single scoop of ice cream.

Excellent self-made ice cream! We had chocolate and it was delicious. Highly recommend giving this small business owner your patronage!! Price is high but so are costs and everything is expensive in Hawaii:-(. Don't let that stop you - it's worth it! You can even buy lactose enzymes on site for 25 cents!!!
