Adorn with celebrity visitors. This is a good stop after the koko crater hike or trekking around Hanauma Bay. A small is more than enough for anyone. Tasty

Loved it! Theres many places to get shaved ice but this place had such a variety of shaved ice flavors and other sweets! Definitely hit the spot after a day of swimming. Not too long of a line either. If you are in the area this is a must go

How anyone not love Shave ice!?Cause even Obama loves it!Besides smoothie bowls, rainbow shave ice is a must when you come visit Hawaii 🌈🤙🏼🥰Try Shave ice here and dont forget to add on mochi balls and condensed milk. Its just great!Ps. Theres Obamas favorite too. Come and try!

Shave ice is fine and syrups are yummy without being too sweet. Great after a afternoon jaunt to Makapu lighthouse.

Great shave ice flavors! Add a snow cap and you have a real treat. The downfall was that they stop making crepes an hour before they close. Then we tried again before heading to the airport and it was going to take too long for the pan to heat...bummer!

Obama’s choice for Hawaiian shave ice. I grew up near this shop, it’s been around forever. Old school style and authentic. Must try on Oahu.

Literally the best shave ice on the island. During our stay on the island we indulged in a few shave ice spots and Kokonuts was literally the best. Best ice, best flavor. I have family on the island and know where Im going for shave ice for future visits.

Great place for shave ice. Tons of flavors. Also, extras you can get in your shave ice, like mochi balls, etc. They also have other menu items that you choose from like tea, ice cream, Smoothies, acai bowls.

Extremely good shaved ice!!!! Just the right amount of flavour syrup to make the shaved ice delicious.

Dropped by this place after snorkeling and pizza at an early afternoon. Wasnt expected to see Obamas pictures in the store.The açaí supreme bowl really hit the spot. We also had a mango drink, shaved ice, and a milk tea. The lady behind the counter was very accommodating with my request of no sugar in the milk tea and açaí bowl.

Very very good shaved ice! I honestly cant remember exactly what I had because we had shaved ice all over Oahu but I can tell you it was one of the better places that stands out in my memory. It was a little bit crowded when we stopped but it was a sunny and warm day at around mid day so that was to be expected especially after considering it was good and reasonably priced. Cheers to the staff at Kokonuts!

Review №21

This is one of my fave Shave Ice spots. So many different flavors and toppings. My fav being coconut and watermelon and snow capped! My boyfriend alternates from the shaved ice and crepes. The crepes are really good too. There are a lot of snacks and desserts to choose from! There is a $10 minimum for cc use, so just a heads up!

Okay so this place has a lot of high reviews, its a high-profile Area, and is even recommended by Obama allegedly. All of that holds no merits with me we simply were driving by and had a sweet tooth to satisfy. Boy am I glad we did this was the best Shave Ice we have ever tasted. The girls that make the ice are very sweet and nice and its in a beautiful downtown district outside of Honolulu right next to Kokos Mountain

Unassuming spot for shave ice and açai bowls. I really enjoyed the freshness of the açai bowl with bananas, strawberries, honey, and toasted coconut on top! Perfect treat for after hiking.

Disappointed. The açaí bowl is liquidy. The syrup for shave ice tastes way too sweet and artificial. I don’t recommend this place.

Best shave ice I had in Hawaii... Matsumotos and Ululanis were nice and had queues... but this was the best... soft and fluffy and I tried Obamas pick which I think was lemon lime and cherry and it was sweet and refreshing.Its tucked away in a nice neighborhood, in a small mall by the marina. Theres a Leonards Bakery truck in a car park too.

Great little place. The family goes in a few times a month for dessert. I love their cookies and cream shake. Daughter gets the melona creamy bubble drink, mom gets a bubble drink as well.Shave ice, acai bowls, candy, drinks, hot dogs, chips and snacks - All of them are goodWill continue to visit as long as they are open

Oh man! The best shave ice that we had in Hawaii. President Obama knows how to pick the best shave ice, stop by when you are in the area and enjoy a delicious treat... And maybe meet a former president.

Probably the best shaved ice we’ve ever had. Perfectly shaved ice, not grainy and disolved instantly after hitting my tongue. Flavors were great, ice cream topped it off. Great service, fast and friendly.

This place is adorable, loved the owner, such a sweet passionate lady. It has amazingly great food. The Açaí bowls with toasted coconut were amazing as were the energy bars and shakes. We visited a few times cause it is that good!!

Review №65

The cashier lady was pretty rude to me & my family. All we tried to do was ask her questions on our order because we were waiting a while and seen everyone behind us get theirs before us. Instead of talking to us kindly as we were to her, she was super rude in tone like we were irritating her. She talked to my brother as if he was slow in the head. Jus was a little shocking cause she treated all the other customers there differently. Nevaaa EVAAA coming back to this place again. WORK on your customer service 👎🏼👎🏼

Nice little place with great shaved ice and large portions. I got a medium sized shaved ice. I could barely finish. Great for a hot day!They lose a star because I asked for raspberry and pineapple but ended up with raspberry and banana. The banana was good however so I didnt complain.If your in the area check it out!

Review №71

I was craving shaved ice and looked it up on yelp. This spot popped up.It was in a busy complex, so at times the parking can be busy.The girl we had was there alone. She was pretty diligent with getting orders done. They offered Acai bowls, but I just stuck to the shaved ice.You get to choose 3 flavors and the serving is pretty good!Price is good too!My boys have dairy allergies and she was pretty good with making sure there was no cross contamination.

This is absolutely my favorite place for shaved ice on the island! They also give you options for ice cream and sweetened condensed milk. Even the small Shave Ice is rather large. With an Entertainment Book (download the Entertainment Coupons app), you can do a buy one get one free small shaved ice. I recommend a raspberry and coconut shaved ice with ice cream in the bottom.

Review №75

The girls always wear a smile and put together the best products. Go there after every hike or snorkeling on that side and never had a problem. Acai Supreme bowl is perfect post-hike meal. They offer bubble tea, shaved Ice, crepes, ice cream shakes, and all kinds of toppings. Stop by and youll will find your own favorite. Just remember to bring cash, cash only! :)

Review №76

Great store that offers so much! Candy snacks to absolute health drinks, I love it here. Theres so many different drinks and its generally cheaper than Starbucks. I get a matcha blended drink with soy and rice balls. 4.75, cheaper than Starbucks, and way more delicious. And Im vegan and the woman in there will always make off menu items to suit my needs. Love it! Prepare for a wait as it IS LOCAL and not hugely staffed but that makes it better to me. :)

Review №77

Super slow service. Waited 25 minutes just to get two medium shaved ices. There was a line out the door on a Saturday night and the girl working couldnt have been any slower. Why is there only one person working on a Saturday night? Additionally, the flavors were not special and were very artificial. Dont go there just because Obama did.

Jo

Yummy shave Ice in a bustling shopping center in Hawaii Kai Marina park. No frills but friendly staff and high quality flavors and toppings. Try their lilikoi, coconut and guava with condensed milk, its all the island flavors in every spoonful!

Went there, bought shave ice but it was horrible, its super sweet. The cashier also seem impatient when my kid is deciding what flavor she wants. We cant eat their shave ice, it just color with a lot of sugar.

Horrible ,horrible service !! If I could have given this place 0 stars, I would have !!! Rude and condescending waitresses kept looking at each Other when I was trying to order and kept laughing at my answers and made meFeel very uncomfortable. I will never go to this horrible place again. Chose to walk out and not buy anything. And I told the 2 servers that I would not be buying anything due toHorrible service, I walked out and they were completely silent. But as soon as I left, I could hear them yelling obscenities at me. HorriblePeople. Horrible service. Just so traumatized!!!!

Hands down the best acai and pitaya bowls on the island. I have been to so many on Oahu and after considering price, service, size and tastiness. This place trumps all! Its a small little shop that isnt ever super busy but those who go know its amazing! Highly highly recommend!

Not a fan -- basic offerings and not exactly user friendly. I prefer Uncle Clays House of Aloha in the Aina Haina shopping mall.
