About Waiola

In the 1970s, Waiola Shave Ice started a large road-widening project that led to the closure of many small shave ice shops. However, Waiola Shave Ice saw an opportunity to expand Waiola’s business and opened a shaved ice window in Waiola’s existing store. It was a brilliant decision, as it attracted many customers looking for a refreshing treat during the hot summer months.

Over the years, Waiola Shaved Ice has changed hands a few times, but it has always been a well-run local business that the community loves to support. Today, Waiola Shave Ice has two locations, but the original store on 2135 Waiola Street is the one that draws the most attention from both tourists and locals alike. This store has become an iconic landmark in Hawaii and is synonymous with the state’s culture and lifestyle.

One of the reasons why Waiola Shave Ice has become so popular is because of Waiola Shave Ice’s extensive menu that includes all the classic flavors, as well as Hawaii-only treats like li hing mui, lychee, and lilikoi. Waiola Shave Ice’s customers can choose from an extensive variety of fruity flavors and customize Waiola Shave Ice with different sizes, whether it’s a cone, a bowl, or a cup.

Waiola Shave Ice also offer a wide range of combinations and sizes to satisfy your craving. You can add different toppings, including mochi balls, condensed milk, and azuki beans, to make your shave ice even more delicious.
