Great choice on Kauai and very fine shaved ice. To me, this beat snow in Hawaii. We had the passion fruit, lychee, and pineapple and a lime, vanilla, and mango. All of the flavors were great, but I particularly enjoyed the passion fruit and husband loved the vanilla and lime. Both of these were snow capped and the owner was so kind to cap my shaved ice three times as it melted down. Very nice guy, good recommendations, and we left with a shirt! I recommend the passion fruit. $3 per cup with as many flavors as you like. **This place was super hard to find because both Yelp and Google Maps brought us to the wrong place. This "kiosk" is in Kapaa right in front of the entrance to Big Save.
So I stopped by here because I'd read about this place, then heard about it during a tour once I was on the island. I'm not sure I'm a Shaved ice connoisseur, but I have had shaved ice in Oahu and Kauai multiple times. This is overall my absolute favorite place to go. He truly is just a stand set up outside a grocery store and doesn't have all the frills- no ice cream, none of that weird powder, no beans... Just pure delicious shaved ice (and "snow cap"). I arrived in the late afternoon, some locals were just finishing up theirs. I ordered mine and met Aaron. He is a delightful man. I was beyond lucky to have the pleasure of his company while I sat and ate my shaved ice. We talked about me and my visit and where I should go for my last two days, his life and the shaved ice business. Halfway through my shaved ice he got up and added more snow cap, just because. I would have just been fine sitting there alone eating my shaved ice- it really was the best, but add Aaron's hospitality- and you have a small local place that I will never forget to tell people about!
This is a small Shave Ice stand outside the Big Save store. Aaron is the guy that makes the shave ice and all of the syrups. There no ice cream, red beans, or fancy toppings, but if you stick around and enjoy the experience you'll understand why people come here. You'll see locals that stop by for their "regular" shave ice and some that will sit with you and ask where you're from and give you suggestions on where to go and eat. There is a sense of community, family, and aloha here. Take some time to enjoy it.
