Mac Nut chocolate covered banana & Dole Whip
Brenda S.

Cutest little shack right in the lagoon of Aulani! has different dole whip options and other treats! They decorate some dole whips with Moana, stitch, Mickey or Minnie. Soooo cute! Since it was considered fast food service the food was out right away after we got rung up! Perfect snack place!

So good! This little treat shack right on the beach was such a fun find. They offer a variety of ice cream, frozen treats, and Dole Whips! We walked up to the window and were quickly handed the ice cream sandwich we ordered, while the Dole Whip took just a few extra minutes. It came in a chocolate-dipped cone with Mickey-shaped sprinkles, a tiny umbrella, and a Stitch-shaped chocolate chunk, such a cute touch! You can order it plain in a cup, but we opted for the fancier version (with your choice of character) for $11, and it was totally worth it. The price was fair, the service was great, and our little ones loved the special details like the Mickey sprinkles. It was plenty to share between the family. Next time, I'm definitely trying the chocolate dipped frozen pineapple or banana!

I won't tell you how many times I hit up this snack shack while I was there. Too embarrassing. It is so easy to grab something while you're hanging out on the beach and the dole whip was absolutely perfect. Quick service and the menu is limited so what they do sell they do really well and they get out quick. We rented out one of the loungers on our beach days and enjoying our dole whip while lounging under the canopy - divine!

After returning from our Secret Beach quest we were ready to quench our thirst. I'd read about Aulani Disney resort serving the infamous Dole Whip by the lagoon. So when we approached both my daughter and I knew we each wanted one. Hubby passed. We read the menu board posted at the kiosk. You can request a character one like Stitch. We passed on that. We both had the Dole Whip swirl in a cup - pineapple and watermelon combo. Served in a 16 oz plastic cup. So refreshing. I could have had one every day but flew home the next day.

Dole Whip Heaven! A MUST when staying at Aulani! We got the $11 dole whip with the white chocolate art of stitch and a really cool waffle cone that's dipped in chocolate with mouse ear confetti candy. You get a choice of Minnie, Mickey, Stitch and Moana as the white chocolate piece. The cool part of this dole whip place is that they offer pineapple and watermelon twist while the Ulu Cafe has vanilla and pineapple twist only. Great to share the 1 dole whip with others too!

Mickey ice cream sandwich
Katie J.

I stopped by here a couple of times and it was pretty good and tasty. I got the watermelon dole whip and it was pleasant and good. I got the Mickey ice cream sandwich and it was better than I thought. It was satisfying and nice to eat on a hot day. The people running the stand were nice. I recommend getting something from here.

Two-flavor soft serve (melting before my eyes!)

Haiku: Little 'Opihi's Enjoy a sweet treat Get your Dole Whip here Heaven in a cup. --- Located where Aulani meets the Ko Olina beach boardwalk, this shack features frozen treats and drinks and is ideal for beach goers. You can order basic Dole Whip soft serve and cute character ones like Mickey, Moana, and Stitch. They also have mini-waffle bowls. The texture of the Dole Whip is consistent (when freshly served, it holds its texture, not runny). Just devour them because they melt quickly under the warm sun.

Dole whip - watermelon + pineapple
Shantel B.

Such a nice treat when out for a swim or enjoying the sand. You don't have to be a guest to purchase from this food establishment that is apart of Disney Aulani. Such a great variety to choose from. We like to walk over from four seasons to get a scoop of Disney Magic. Love that we can get some dole whip or some boba! The treats come out quick & we're back on our way to the other resort!

Stitch watermelon dole whip

How cute is this!! Little Opihi's is a snack and dessert shack along the walkway between the beach and the pool area at Disney Aulani. They have great fruit, dessert, and ice cream options for kids and adults. My daughter loves Stitch and had to get a stitch theme ice cream. The line wasn't long at all. We were serviced right away and the ice cream came out larger than the picture. They put the ice cream into a paper bowl to capture the ice cream dripping - very smart! We ordered a watermelon ice cream that came with chucks of watermelon at the bottom of the soft serve. It was all delicious and the presentation was cute!

Pineapple and watermelon swirl float
Amanda W.

There was no line at the order window, and I can't imagine why. The two women inside were friendly and helpful. Keep in mind that the location is card or room charge only and does not accept cash. The dole whip float was delicious and refreshing. The perfect treat off the mainland!

Little 'Opihi's is a beachside stand perfectly located between the Ko Olina Lagoon and the pools at Aulani. They serve dole whip, ice cream, fruit and beverages. But my favorite thing they serve is the Disney themed Dole Whips. I got the Moana and Stitch Dole Whip fresh fruit sundaes. They were bigger than I was expecting so it was plenty for a family of 5. Moana is pineapple flavor and is stuffed with fresh pineapple. Stitch is watermelon flavored and stuffed with fresh watermelon. Out of the two Moana was my favorite.

Minnie Mouse sundae and Stitch sundae
Tram B.

The sign says open 11 AM - 5 PM but they didn't open until around 11:30 AM when I went. I'm not sure if that's a usual occurrence or if something happened. The dole whip is is great though I recommend getting the stitch or Moana sundaes. The watermelon dole whip also comes with super sweet watermelon pieces inside and it's very refreshing on a hot day. The watermelon dole whip was creamy and incredible. It beats the dole whip at Disneyland for sure. The extra dollars instead of the regular dole are worth it.

Minnie Waffle Bowl w/ Pineapple Dole Whip

Wanted Dole Whip. Found Dole Whip. Enjoyed Dole Whip with a nice beach front at the Disney Resort. Service quick and sweet with an attention to detail (the toppings that make the characters come to life and hard to eat). Fun experience and not too expensive for what they charge at the theme park

The local sister who help me is very nice. The local boy who loaded up the side is very kool too. They all have great customer service and very polite and friendly. The place is clean n parking is ok. Setting is fine When they get busy, honestly its worth the wait. Putting the word to go and try it. They won't let you down, they give a lot. Thanks again Gina's n see you again soon.

I ordered the kalbi plate and had a pretty disappointing experience…read more While I appreciated the kalbi being conveniently cut up, the meat did not taste or feel fresh off the grill--the packaging temperature was lukewarm at best. The flavor profile was also a bit off, leaning much softer and significantly sweeter than what I would expect from good kalbi, making it tedious to eat. However, the real nail in the coffin was the rice. It had a bizarre, soapy taste to it--almost as if it had been sitting in an overly soaped plastic container that infused into the food. It was highly unpleasant and killed my appetite. The sides: The kimchi and japchae were good! The shoyu potatoes were just okay and nothing to write home about, as it didn't have any particular flavor.

The potstickers were fine. The fish and chips were some of the best I've ever had. They use Mahi Mahi. They said that earlier this year they were unable to procure it and had to use a different fish and it just wasn't the same. So be sure to verify that they're using Mahi Mahi. Delicious! They have a legit pizza oven and make amazing pizzas. We got the combo they call the Kalua Pork & Pineapple. Note that it has other things on it too like jalapenos and pesto. We made no modifications and got it how it normally comes. Amazing! The scratch made crust is really great.

The Korean pork tacos were our favorite bite. The avocado cucumber salad was surprisingly good and very refreshing. The lobster deviled eggs were a nice treat, and you really can't go wrong with the Parmesan fries. Good food, good drinks, and a Ko Olina setting. Sometimes it's fun to play tourist in your own backyard. Make sure you pay for parking and do it accurately, the fines are steep and they are very strict.

He never asked whether I wanted dinner or mentioned any evening specials. I came in intending to eat and watch the Hawaii college football game. Two beers into my visit, I still hadn't been offered a menu or asked whether I wanted food. I don't know the bartender's name because I didn't see a name tag. A simple greeting, a menu, and a little attention would have made a big difference. Instead, I felt ignored throughout my visit. Easily one of the worst hospitality experiences I've had.

I don't know if it wasn't mixed right, or was just plain old. Laulau was small and dry. Kalua pig was good, but tasted a little old. Lomi salmon was good. The poi was like 2-day old, thick, dry, and sour. The haupia was little funky, solid, and grey. The white rice was brown and old. The loco moco gravy was super dark and chunky, the meat paddy tough. The mac salad tasted like detergent (like they never wash the pot good). Felt like everything we was eating was Sunday leftovers.

Its feels like eating at your friend's grandma's house, will this is how I feel, home comfort food vibe whenever I grab take out or dine in. Camille's Hawaiian Food is tucked all the way in Waipahu at Westgate Center, there are many shops here and it blends in but look for the wooden board out front with the daily specials. The prices at Camille's are reasonable and the portions size are great too, you really get bangs for your bucks here. I like they have the options of mini and regular plates. I've been here a total of 3 times, first time we tried the Hawaiian food, got take out, and most recently dined in and luckily we got some entertainment. We enjoyed the Hawaiian food, but I have to give credit to the other local foods we tried so far I got the pork chops with mushroom, garlic shrimp, crack chicken and smoked meat fried rice. Everything was tasty, really enjoyed it but just the crack chicken may be on the sweeter side, I would request for light sauce. The macaroni salad was fire! Rice cooked perfectly! There are many goodies in the fridge, pistachio cake, Ho'i'o salad, dried Aku, Opelu, Smoke Marlin, pickle onions, smoke tako, dried shrimp, drinks, and even Dubai chocolates! There are T-shirts, snacks, candies, chips for sale in front of cashier and towards the back of store. I love the color green and had to get a slice of pistachio cake, ($5.) what a treat, its been awhile since I last had pistachio cake. It was a huge slice, shared w/the hubby. It was yummy, so refreshing and moist. When I had my last bite, it got a little too sweet means I need to stop eating. hehe. Check out Camille's, support local. Oh I remember that the business is named after the owner's daughter.

When we first got to the restaurant, the bartender asked us how many and then directed us to choose our seat. The music was very loud by the bar, so we elected to find a seat as far away from the music as possible. My family and I sat down and looked over the menu. Five minutes passed and no one came by our table nor acknowledged us, other than the bartender at the beginning. After ten minutes passed, a server past us twice, but we still didn't get any acknowledgement nor any water. So we elected to leave and go to a different seafood place. My family and I are pretty understanding people, and it would have been different if someone came by and said something along the lines of, "sorry guys, we're short staffed and will get your order in a bit," or "I'll be right over to take your order," just some type of acknowledgment. Instead we observed a server walk by us twice, look at us and continue to be on their way. That left a sour taste in our mouth and made us feel like we didn't belong. Second, it appeared as though other people were also waiting to either order, get their check, or their food. But the servers were more focused on the patrons at the bar than those on the table. Overall, we were disappointed by the service and decided to go somewhere else for our family dinner.
