The shave ice trailer, outside a dispensary
Eric M.

Iwalan's is a shave ice trailer that moves throughout the Las Vegas valley. Today, it was outside a weed dispensary close to home so we went to give it a try. The bar is high on my end due to my fascination and love of Hawaiian shave ice. I have spent many days touring Oahu and Maui looking for their islands best. So to start in going to say, this is actually legit shaved ice. It's not snow cone garbage, which is what almost all shave ice in vegas is. This is actual Hawaiian shaved ice that you'd get on the islands, by island people. I ordered a custom shaved ice and my wife got the creamsicle. Absolutely took me back to September in Oahu. The 4 star is because we both had some clumps of hard ice, not may, but a few. The flavors are amazing, the shave is absolutely legit, and what they really need is a brick and mortar store in Silverado ranch since that is a high islander area. This is a fantastic l, delicious shaved ice: The staff was super amazing (mom makes the mochi fresh) and the syrups are delicious/. Find them on the gram and track them. They are worth the drive wherever they are planted.

Best shave ice on the 9th island! Friendly staff, bringing the Aloha spirit. Li hing mui and mochi toppings really bring me home. Follow them on instagram to find their truck locations and get in line early! They do sell out Sometimes they have music bumping and it really brings the island vibe. Family friendly and def worth the wait

I pass Iwalani's Shave Ice on my drive home during these hot summer nights. Triple digits today warranted a stop to this popular shave ice truck. We were greeted right away. They have many options including house specials and create your own options. We went with the Tropical Rainbow flavor and added mochi. After waiting a couple minutes, our order was ready. There are so many shave ice trucks in Vegas and I have to say Iwalani's is one of the best I've had. The shave ice was the fluffiest and they were generous on the flavored syrup pours. It was a perfect treat for a hot Vegas afternoon.

Stopped by on Sunday to try Iwalani's shaved ice. I always miss Hawaii so this is one way to feel connected. The line was steady and they have a call out number system to let you know when to get your shaved ice from the window, so very efficient. It took 15-20 minutes and it was 103 so it was hot. They have a few standing tables but it's not covered so we ate in the car. Most people there did just that, as well. I had the orange dream. One of my sons had to ask for more syrup because the center didn't have any. After that it was good to the last spoonful. The flavors were great. Definitely a great treat any day of the week! Cost roughly $28 for the speciality and two larges.

I was introduced to this place by a Hawaiian friend, and it instantly became a favorite. The ice is perfectly soft and the flavors are fantastic. I especially love their Ube, Mango, and Blue Hawaii. They also rotate in some fun limited-time flavors, which keeps things exciting. Toppings are a must! don't skip the condensed milk, ice cream, or mochi! I loved their vibe so much and that they Re family owned so we hired them! I needed a vendor for a Making Strides against Breast Cancer event at my company, we decided to book them for August. They post their weekly locations on Instagram and cover a pretty wide area, which makes it easy to catch them on the go. Highly recommend for a refreshing, flavorful treat on a warm day!

I've been hearing about this food truck on social media so I absolutely had to try it. I've been craving Hawaiian shaved ice since the summer started and when I saw that they were by my area I just HAD to go. I got there around 30 minutes after it opened but there was already a small crowd up and around already! With the small crowd the line to order wasn't a long wait, it was waiting for the order. I think I waited 10-15 minutes but its also understandable because they are a food truck and they actually give out orders by number order instead of skipping numbers, which is good! The shaved ice, ate it all immediately. I ordered the Hawaiian Rainbow with a scoop of ice cream. I love how they put the ice cream underneath so that it doesnt fall off and make it messy, so smart! Also the most cleanest shaved ice ive ever eatenThe apperance was good and for the flavor? Amazing and refreshing. You can absolutely tell that they make their own syrups. Even with the rainbow you can taste each flavor and it doesnt contradict each flavor. They set up small standing tables but I was able to enjoy this in the car. Like I said, it wasn't messy to eat surprisingly. Overall a very nice treat to beat the heat. Definitely will return when they are in my area again!

Absolutely LOVE Iwalani's Shave Ice! We had to wait a bit long but understandably so - the line was LONG. Totally worth the wait tho. We got the #5: Ube, coconut, strawberry with the tastiest toppings. I shared with my husband but now I know to get my own next time. Haha. By the time we were done devouring our shave ice, they were sold out.

My daughter has been wanting to try Iwalani's and we were able to catch their truck in Southern Highlands. They post where they will be on their socials. The 2 ladies were so friendly and helped us order by giving us their recommendations. My daughter got a small bowl with cherry, watermelon & strawberry and I got the Mango Sticky Rice. All the specialty flavors looked so good! If you go with the bowl you can customize it in so many ways. We both enjoyed our shave ice. The small bowl was completely covered in syrups vs the mango sticky rice had just the toppings on top and underneath was mostly plain ice. It was still good though. The mochi was my favorite part (they also sell mochi in bags) Can't wait to try more flavors!

Mango coconut with lechera and Ube with vanilla ice cream and lechera!

The best shaved ice that has ever been made. Went to check this place out about a half hour before it closed and it did not disappoint . The customer service is a little bit standoffish. They don't have any recommendations and it was just two young girls that are kind of sitting at a table staring at you waiting for you to order. We ended up getting like the Ube on some ice cream inside along with a coconut mango. I asked beforehand which flavors were natural without dye or flavoring and it's the coconut, strawberry and mango! It was really smooth and light, sweet but not wear it overpowers the flavors. Will definitely be returning!

Purple one is Large Special #5, Red one is Large Lava flow, Yellow one is Small Lychee/Banana

Sooo delish!! I saw them on tiktok and saw that they were going to be at tractor supply on rainbow/bluediamond. For my first time I am extremely satisfied for the amount of shaved ice and flavor. The shaved ice was soft and flavors were so ono, staff is lovely! Please come more to the SW side of vegas!

Absolute love me some Philly freeze me! The new location downtown is super cute. They have giant…read moreJenga and an outdoor area. It's to hot right now but eventually I'd def sit out there. Super cool vibe , once I walked in they had a dj and some other events going. I'm just there for the freeze me though lol. I'm not mad at catching a vibe and a cup of ice! Also the service is superb , everyone has been kind and they don't mind letting you sample, multiple flavors. Let's talk about the Atomic freeze by far my absolute fav!!!! It's mango , blueberry and cherry #dabomb The texture is so soft and fluffy if that's possible lol. I've loved this place since the beginning , oh and for you boozy folks they have goodies for you too.

Philly Freeze Me is definitely worth a stop. The second you walk in, there is a very intense…read morecleaning-product smell and a little muggy, but honestly, I guess that's better than the alternative! The portions are huge for the price, too. I genuinely cannot imagine ordering anything bigger than a small. They also have a ton of flavors, including a few alcoholic options, which is always a fun little twist. The staff was also very patient with our somewhat large, indecisive group! Our group tried: Peach Bellini -- FABULOUS Mango with chamoy and Tajín -- FIRE Watermelon grape -- An interesting combo Cherry and lemon -- More faint than I expected Cotton candy -- You really can't go wrong Chocolate Banana - I wanted to like it, but it was meh.
