Abysmal service. Cashier asked for our order but then kept her back to us the entire time we spoke. Just generally unfriendly, with nothing but glares from her. Shave ice was just okay. This was the 3rd place we've been to for shave ice in Kauai and definitely the worst. They only have one single size and it's $10+ for pretty basic quality.

HUGE portion! We shared between three people. Felt like a more traditional shave ice experience than other shops that have some more interesting / unique toppings. The person working was so friendly and helpful, teaching us about how he prepares shave ice differently based on weather.

Yummy large shaved ice. Hard to mess this up and reasonable prices. If you’re in the area hit them up but I wouldn’t go out of my way to come here…tastes like they all do lol

Can be a little bit of a wait but so worth it.This is my favorite shaved ice spot, they keep the shaved ice fluffy and flavor it perfectly!Be ready to eat it quick and/or grab a straw cause it is going to melt quicker than you expect.

The shave ice is AMAZING. We got the POG combo that was served on a bed of macadamia nut ice cream. All the flavors were spectacular. It was big enough for two of us to enjoy. It was very reasonably priced and there are many benches right around the store to sit and enjoy the great weather and mellow vibe of this beautiful island! I HIGHLY recommend it!

Waited 45 min in line for shaved ice that didn’t have much flavor. The staff seemed inebriated as we had to repeat our orders multiple times then it still came out wrong. Would not recommend wasting your time or money. So many better places on the island.

Went during posted hours and they were closed. 2:30 on Tuesday. I wish I could review the goods but they closed.

We tried a ton of shave ice on Kauai and this place is very good, well deserving of 5 stars. The ice is a great consistency and the option of fresh strawberries in the base is a nice touch.

The shaved ice was pretty good. Conveniently located near some shops to explore or benches to just lounge and enjoy the ice. Store itself was small, but cozy and fairly clean.

Best shave ice on the island. We went back 4-5x the week we were in Poipu. We tried a few other places and this was so much better. This is the closest thing we’ve had to Matsumoto’s on Oahu which is equally as good. Get the Island Nectar or POG with macadamia nut ice cream on the bottom, SO GOOD. Jason was our server and he was AWEOME! Super nice guy and went above and beyond. Good shave ice and great service.

We came here several times on our stay in Kauai! Absolutely delicious! Jason was working there almost every time we came and he was so kind and helpful! This is definitely the best shaved ice in the area!

No Idea why this is rated so low. Awesome place, probably came here like 4 times no joke as our kid loved it.

The store Is conveniently located in the shopping center. I did not go inside. However, my family bought shaved ice. I'm not too impressed, as the texture is not as fine as in other shaved ice locations. The flavors are bland. They have fair prices.
