Flora H.

We happily stumbled across the coconut caboose truck and pulled over. It was the last day of our trip to Maui and fresh coconut was just the thing that was missing. They were so friendly, giving us samples of just about everything, making the decision hard. I ended up ordering the coconut ice cream, which I do have to say was better as a small sample than as a whole cup that had been frozen and was a bit dense and hard to eat. I kind of wish I had gotten the coconut shaved ice. I steered away from it since we had already had shaved ice, but we hadn't had COCONUT shaved ice. My mistake. Next time. My bf had the fresh coconut which is a must get. After you finish drinking the water they cut it up for it so you can eat the meat. Yum.

This was such a cool find and thanks to our tour guide (on Road to Hana) for the intel. If you like sno cones or shaved iced, this is a special offering, ice made from coconut. That said, before this trip, I was not a fan of coconut water, coconut candy or some other coconut items (however I love pina coladas) and fell in love with the flavor because it really is different and coconuts on the island are tastier. Here's my rating of the items I tried: Shaved ice - pineapple flavor 5/5 Shaved ice w/ gelato special - 5/5 Slushie - 4/5 (mango) Coconut water float -5/5 Coco-macadamia nut candy - 5/5

Parking spot you'd find them
Kashyap J.

I wish I could give it 10 stars! We went there every day even on the day we left cutting close to our flight timings! Big applause to the adventurous flavor combinations with creamy coconut base gelato. One absolutely needs to stop by here to enjoy coconut water. They have max 3 days old coconuts but you are guaranteed with sweet water. And the taste is very close to home! Unlike the ones we get here on mainland. Two favorite flavors in gelato- Jabuticaba - big bold flavor with perfect grape smoothie color and coconut base. The best - coconut gelato. It's a perfect opposite to the above one but delish Coconut with jelly like meat- tend to be sweeter and that meat it not too heavy Coconuts with thicker meat- water is less sweet but perfect if you have skipped breakfast and one fruit would fill you up! They tend to move their parking spot depending upon space but found them on a bend right after kapulua where you will see lots of other cars parked. This is my #1 recommended place in must visit places in Maui

Tiny but delicious coconut gelato
Bamboo C.

This coconut caboose is in the perfect area near the beach and also near restaurants and shops. I recommend getting the fresh coconuts here. You can drink them, and then they'll cut the meat out for you. It's super enjoyable and the guy working there is so friendly! Amazing service. The coconut Gelato is also fantastic.

She was so sweet!! Tip her well!

I love coconuts!!! So I was super excited when I found this on Yelp before my trip to Maui. I had the shaved ice special with guava and lilikoi flavoring plus the coconut gelato. All of it was refreshing and the gelato was amazing! The woman who helped me was so nice and friendly!! You would expect all workers would be just as nice on the island, but nope lol! She was one of the few I experienced on the island who even smiled when taking your order. I wish I was able to make another visit before my leave. Highly recommend! Fun fact: the owner actually climbs and collects all the coconuts to bring to the cart. So support the locals as much as you can!!

We found this place while driving scenic Highway. Very unique shaved ice cones. The best I've ever eaten. It will be a tradition going forward

Victoria S.

Everything is handmade, organic and delicious! We got the coconut shaved ice, which was made from coconut juice, it was soooo good! I highly recommend this place. It's located in Maui Outlet Mall parking lot, you can shop and get dessert!

If you want to try some amazing coconut shaved ice then def stop by at this truck. They have amazing variety of coconut in form of shaved ice , coconut gelato, coconut Slushie etc. We tried coconut flavored shaved ice and it was so good. They even add flavor in case you feel less after finishing half of your dish. I wish they had some place to sit also but they don't. Also, if you want to try some natural coconut then they have that too. We didn't try that but many were ordering and seem to enjoy it...!!

shaved ice and coconut gelato special
Sanjna S.

Adorable little food truck along the North side drive coming back from Honolua Bay - definitely save your appetite for this creamy yummy coconut water shaved ice treat. It's certainly refreshing and amazing to see them prepare the shave ice. The service was very friendly and very informative of the menu and ingredients being used. They gave some samples as well to try. I had the shaved coconut ice and coconut gelato special w/ some lychee syrup drizzle. On a hot summery afternoon this was great. I would certainly recommend to anyone to stop by.

Marie S.

Hands down one of the best things we ate, second only to poke, while vacationing in Maui. We went all in by ordering coconut gelato with coconut ice and coconut syrup. No regrets because IT WAS DIVINE! My only complaint would be that the ice cream was too hard to be considered gelato, but I'm guessing that's because it's vegan. I only wish they had more locations so that we could've visited one last time before leaving the island!

Coconut  chopping
GiGi G.

Decided to take a scenic drive to see the blowhole and spotted the Coconut Caboose on the side of the road in a small parking area. An amazing array of coconut delicacies (shave ice, ice cream, smoothie and more!) but we just had to have the straight ice cold coconut water followed by the tender flesh. Very friendly staff! Go check them out!

Dianna G.

Amazing! Maui must have! This shave ice is like no other. 100% organic and vegan. Their shaved ice with coconut gelato in the bottom is amazing! They also have cold whole coconuts that we all love. For a caffeine pick me up the have a delicious coconut cold brew. Everything is amazing and the owners are awesome, good people. As an added bonus the view to enjoy your treats is one of the best.

Coconut Caboose Stand
Fred L.

We stopped here on the way back from Nakalele Blowhole. Our oldest, 7, loves fresh coconut and our youngest, 5, loves shave ice so this spot was a win-win. We really enjoyed the Coconut gelato, some shave ice and a fresh coconut which was a great treat after all the hiking. The guy running the stand was very nice. It was cool watching him open the coconut with the machete. After we drank the coconut water he carved out the fresh coconut and bagged it for us. I highly recommend making a stop and enjoying the experience.

While I adore and often cook a lot of Asian food I'm not such a fan of Filipino food yet around it more than any other food with family. Bad choice. After driving there from Lahaina for lunch, this dish was unavailable?? Even yelpers rave about it! So we ordered the pork belly and wanted chow fun but they only have the chicken variety? So there is a reason why the Asian restaurants we usually dine at make beef chow fun. The chicken version was bland and wanting for something else to complete it! But surely edible and nicely cooked noodles. The pork belly was ok but not slap your momma I'll go back for that good. The Mac salad was awful compared to much more affordable plate lunch places. It was flavorless, overcooked pasta, and a gritty texture! Weirdly the chairs there at the tables are low and you feel like you are at the children's table at Thanksgiving. So much so that us and two other groups including the ones that moved after ordering to our vacated table moved from the regular tables to the ones at the window with a bench on one side. We had fun joking with our replacements about that! So for the most part here it appears to be tourist clientele and not many Filipinos but my wife. I think that these exceptionally high prices for basic dishes and burgers (she asked why would people go to a Filipino restaurant and order a burger) are why not many locals eat here. And frankly most aunties make better Filipino food better at home. Glad we tried but not again. Checked off of our try try list. They didn't even have a signature dish available that we went particularly to get.

If you wish to watch, Chef and his staff will engage in conversation with you while cooking and serving the delicious courses they are making. For our 2 amazing experiences there were signature drinks which were flavorful and refreshing. It is a succulent, intimate and personal experience for you and your loved ones that you will never forget. The food is as good as any I have ever had, maybe a little better because of the experience that comes with it. Chef will go over the menu when you make a reservation. I have had two dinners, however they also do a brunch which we plan on trying next time we visit. I unfortunately did not take pictures either time because I was at family functions both times and we did not have our phones with us, my photo is the amazing meal we had at our second dinner. This is an amazing experience that I highly recommend.

With the top down in our rented BMW, the drive to the farm was magnificent and set the perfect tone for the day. When we arrived, we were greeted at the gate by Jake, who welcomed us as we waited for the rest of the guests. Once inside the open-air kitchen, Whitney warmly introduced herself and gave us a brief overview of the schedule. Jake then shared an introduction to the land and his farming philosophy. As a former finance manager, I appreciated how clearly he understood both the economics and the regenerative methods that make the farm sustainable and healthy. We began with introductions, sharing where we were from, our names, and what we were grateful for which created an immediate sense of community. Jake then guided us on a tour of the farm, walking us through the plants and trees that would soon become our lunch. We tasted herbs, vegetables, and fruit straight from the earth. His depth of knowledge, from soil health to post-harvest practices was impressive, and he thoughtfully answered every question. After the tour, we moved into meal preparation. Family-style, we chopped, stirred, whisked, and even made our own tortillas. The fresh salsa had a wonderful bite, and preparing the vegetables and eggs ourselves made the meal even more satisfying. To top it all off, we enjoyed a homemade vegan ice cream made with fresh fruit from the farm, the perfect ending. Jake and Whitney were gracious, kind hosts who mingled easily with the group and created an environment that was both educational and welcoming. We highly recommend this class. It was not only delicious, but deeply informative and memorable.

The server said it would take about 15 minutes, and I think that was pretty accurate. We ended up ordering the following: Salmon Nigiri - 3/5 this was a little bit more salty than I normally expect of my nigiri. Spicy California Roll - 5/5 tasted like a fresh California roll with some spicy mayo on it. It wasn't very spicy though? Mild enough for the non-spice lovers. Tempura Roll - 5/5 this was probably my favorite roll. It was simple yet delicious. You can't ever go wrong with unagi sauce. Smash Roll - 4/5 the smash roll was really good. It had a good, well-rounded taste with the tuna and salmon. This was my husband's favorite roll. If you're feeling like you need some good Asian-American sushi, check out Smash Maui! It's going to hit!
