Andy Vargo: Own Your Awkward
A trip to Maui isn’t complete without a a real Hawaiian shaved ice. And this place hit the spot.

It’s located right at the front of the market which had a great vibe, lots of awesome local artists and small shops, and plenty of people exploring and hanging out.

We came after dinner and were able to enjoy our shaved ice while listening to live music from the nearby bar.

They guy working was super helpful and very nice. He even put on fun music for the little kids in line ahead of us to enjoy while they were there.

Be sure to check out some of the specials they have with their own combination of flavors. My sister got the Blue Wave.

Came here after eating the vegan place next door — got a shaved ice for my wife and two scoops (pineapple & macadamia nut) — BLEW ME AWAY!! the pineapple was truly the best I’ve ever had. Such a fun place — not cheap but nothing on this island is – just enjoy the flavors!

The cutest little shaved ice spot I’ve ever been to! I went with the small size, but wow, it was huge–way more than I expected! The small is definitely big enough to share, so if you’re with a friend or two, definitely try ordering two instead of one. I decided to eat inside rather than outside, which turned out to be a smart choice. My ice lasted much longer than most because of it. I can only imagine if I had stepped outside in that Hawaiian heat and humidity, my shaved ice would have melted in about two seconds!

What really makes this place special is their flavors–they’re all made with real sugar cane, and there’s such a wide variety to choose from. I had the hardest time picking, but finally decided to make my own mix: tigers blood, coconut, and blue raspberry. It was the perfect combination of tropical sweetness and refreshing flavors!

Another cool thing about their shaved ice is that you get to choose up to three flavors, so make sure you take full advantage of that and experiment with different combinations. You can create your perfect flavor profile, This place is definitely a must-try for anyone looking to cool off and indulge in a sweet, refreshing treat!

Big portions and wide variety of home made flavours from local sugar cane.

The best shave ice in town.

Main roadside access.

All the ice creams and shaved ice options looked tempting, but I ultimately decided on the Kona coffee ice cream, drawn in by its rich aroma and promise of a smooth, bold flavor. My wife, on the other hand, opted for a refreshing shaved ice, choosing a mix of vibrant flavors that blended into a colorful, icy treat. The service was impressively quick and hassle-free. I barely had time to take in the surroundings before my order was ready. The staff was friendly and efficient, making the whole experience feel effortless. The ambience was exactly what you’d expect from a classic ice cream and shaved ice shop—bright, cheerful, and simple, with a laid-back vibe that made it easy to relax and enjoy our desserts. As for the flavors, the Kona coffee ice cream was a delight—creamy, smooth, and packed with just the right amount of coffee kick. It was the perfect balance of sweetness and boldness. My wife’s shaved ice was equally satisfying, with the syrup flavors soaking into the finely shaved ice, creating a refreshing, tropical treat perfect for a warm day. If I ever find myself in the area again, I wouldn’t hesitate to stop by for another round. It’s the kind of place that delivers exactly what you hope for—delicious, no-fuss treats served up with efficiency and a smile.

Stopped by Surfing Monkey Shave Ice while exploring Kihei and it did not disappoint! I ordered a shave ice with a mix of coconut and mango, topped with sweet cream — absolutely delicious. The flavors were tropical, smooth, and super refreshing — perfect for beating the Hawaiian heat. Friendly staff and great vibes.

We loved the shave ice and ice cream here!!!❤️ They have very unique and delicious flavors!!! We came here twice during our trip and I think we agreed that this place had some of the best shave ice we tried in Maui!!! Make sure to add the sweet cream on top of your shaved ice! It adds so much great flavor!

I’ve had good, bad and amazing shave ice. This was on the amazing side. Closest I can compare it to on the mainland is Bahama Bucks when it comes to taste and texture. I got the Hawaiian Heaven with mango ice cream on the bottom and cream on the top. Their syrups are made with Hawaiian cane sugar.
They have vegan ice cream options made with coconut milk that are also great.

Very good! For artificial flavoring, it was yummy! I got 1/2 pineapple and 1/2 strawberry shave ice in the smallest size. My mom got a root beer float. My shave ice was HUGE for the price. I almost couldn’t finish it. The root beer was so delicious and fresh. It was made on the island, which is really cool!
