Two locals were here during out visit letting us know this was the place to be for shaved ice. The keiki was very good sized. Don’t miss the specials on the board in the back, they are special for a reason. We ordered 8 different combos. All were so good, the coconut add on for $1 is totally worth it, though opt out if you want a less rich and more refreshing version. The lady at the counter was the kindest lady with a pleasant genuine smile that never flinched while the 8 of us lined up calling out our 24 flavors and toppings. She made the whole experience that much nicer and all for under $40.

I personally think they have the best shave ice in Hilo and probably on the island. When you order, small is not so small, but I’m not complaining. The flavors are great, and I love the add-ons. The owner is super nice and she has known my family for many years. If you’re looking for good shave ice, this place is a must!

Great selections and options! Generous proportions. Be certain to read the specials board inside on the back wall. We enjoyed a Regular Deluxe Pineapple, Li Hing Moi, Lillikoi (passionfruit), and pineapple with cream.

Great quick option . This is take out only however, there is two benches on the side of the building that you can sit and enjoy. Prices reasonable and so many choices. Portions are large. There is parking on the side of the street. However, I did not see a parking parking lot. This is located directly across from pineapples and you could miss it if you didn’t have GPS.

Some of the best if not the best shave ice I’ve had. Perfect texture of ice and flavors are distinct. Get the ice cream under and sweet cream top. It’s enormous so allow plenty of time to enjoy it and get lots of napkins because it’s messy but so worth it!

We asked a waitress at Ziggys what the best shaved ice there was in the area. By her reaction, we HAD to go here. WE WERE NOT DISAPPOINTED!
You order at the door and eat it outside on benches. Heavenly!

Definitely the most pleasant and friendliest business that we visited during our stay on the big Island! The young woman making the shave ice just kept a big smile on her face and kept everyone in line happy. Her young daughter did a good job of finishing the shave ice and helping out. Theirshave ice was the best we’ve had on the big Island! It’s just a block away from the tourist area so it seems that most of the people in line were locals. Had fun eating our shave ice out on the front bench on a hot day and making a mess!

Such a sweet lady who was so kind and patient with us as we have never had this Hawaiian ice before. She gave us great ideas and was super helpful and friendly. I wish we would’ve caught her name but would highly recommend this place. Not to mention the ice taste amazing! Definitely get the milk added to it!

Wow this was probably the best shaved ice we’ve ever had. We ate lunch across the street at Pineapples (which was just ok) but then saw this place and the kids wanted it so we walked over. The keiki size is perfect and only $4. It was soooooo dang good I couldn’t stop taking bites off my kids shaved ice… I should have just got one of my own. Highly recommend.
