Aoki's Shave Ice

Bypass both here AND Matsumoto 's since the best ice shave places are in town . Aoki's ice is chunky and syrup tends to end up on the bottom, leaving you with more lightly flavored ice on top.

HEALTH TIP: Sugar Free Flavors.They offer really great sugar free flavored shave ice here. Great for diabetics like me. This is what I get every time I come here.

Be sure to get your shave ice with ice cream on the bottom. Get the cone holder if you're a slow eater or if it's hot out. When the shave ice melts, it gets messy. It'sopen later than Matusmoto's.

The new Shark's Bite flavor is great, but banana is always best. We come every day of our yearly trip & are loyal to Aoki's. Matsumoto 's is too touristy . Aoki's is way friendlier!

The Shave Ice shakes are my families favorite... We favor the blue Hawaii , vanilla , Melona and Lychee flavors!

Aoki's has moved directly across the street from Matsumoto 's, next Haleiwa Bowls! Both are the best!

the small is big enough for two if you get ice cream ! get the volcano and vanilla ice cream ! so good :) they are so friendly here!

Skip the line at Matsumoto 's! Get ice cream or red beans . Say size and which one at the cashier , pay, then tell which flavors you want.

Amazingly delicious!! Get the ice cream on the bottom :) Blue Hawaii ROCKS!!

Definitely worth the wait. Much better than Matsumoto .

Read the sign when you enter on how to order, and def try the North Shore with Vanilla ice cream !

The sugar-free flavors are really good - i liked strawberry . Melon is good too (not sugar-free)

Don't wait at Marsumoto's!!! Just walk across the parking lot to get a shaved ice with better flavors and almost no line EVER!!

The line was decent compared to Motsimoto's. I dug the ice cream mixed in

Aoki's is better than matsumotos (tourists tend to flock to matsumotos even though it isn't ad good!)

Usually busy but worth waiting in line for! Try the mango

Strawberry is a little too sweet but lychee is amazing. Try it with both the vanilla ice cream and azuki beans !

Great shave ice but you stand in a long line in the sun

get sweet condensed milk on top... adds a little more flavor.

Like the ice better than Matsumoto 's. Get the snow cap!

Azuki beans are great!

Ice is more airy than Matsumoto 's down the street. Service is friendlier too.

The original location is moving on July 31st!

Shorter line than their neighbor

I don't know if it's because they're closing on July 31, but the syrup seemed watered-down. My shave ice tasted really bland. ????

Did taste test vs Matsumoto -- Aoki's is clear winner!

Aoki's is now closed for business

Get the shave ice with ice cream on the bottom!

why wait in line at matsumoto 's...go here - same ting!

Too much brain freeze? Try to eat a bit slower! Do not ask the staff to make the ice warmer.

The "North Shore" is a hit here.

try the blue hawaii
