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 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.

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!

They use Alpha Water filtered water to make their shaved ice! Means it starts with a good clean base! Locals supporting locals! Yay!

Wanted to try this place while out doing uber. The hospitality alone would make anyone want to…read morereturn. The food smells amazing & there's a lot to choose from. I would definitely recommend!

I love this taco truck! It's my go to taco truck! They have the best in my opinion taco Tuesday…read morespecial. I take advantage of it almost weekly! And during the other days, I still eat their tacos I think this is a really good truck. I would highly suggest coming here to get some tacos. They have really good Pollo tacos. Also, I love their pollo asada tacos the best. I think the flavor and moistness is hands down the best I've had. My boyfriend loves their Al Pastor and Carne Asada tacos. They have a large assortment of meats to choose from, lingua, asada, birria, abodado, carnitas. More than just a taco truck, they have birria ramen, tortas, carne asada fries. I have not tried any of those yet. During the day you'll find lovely ladies that are helping you at night and I find that it's usually the same guys helping you every night. All the staff that I've seen has been very friendly and very welcoming and eager to assist. It's just a taco truck right next to the Arco gas station. Can't miss it, big red truck. Sometimes there is a wait especially if you come during peak hours, but usually they can get your order in and out within about 10 minutes. They do have a rewards club that you can join. It's 1 point for every seven dollars that you spend. And then sometimes you'll also get text specials and freebies which I enjoy. I think that the food here has a lot of value and it's good portions. Don't miss out on the taco Tuesday special which has two dollar tacos. That way you get to try a few different kinds of tacos.
