Parking is absolutely horrible, but alas that is the fate of any plaza with good restaurants. A…read moresolid place for bingsu, but I cannot give this place any higher than 3 stars due to the price, quality, and service. I came around 6:50PM on a Saturday and there was a small line for the order kiosk. After I ordered, there were a limited number of seats since people tend to hangout in friend groups and treat it as their 3rd space, so be prepared to fight for a table if you're coming during peak times. I sat down and realized they were a whole 10+ orders behind, meaning I waited at least 25mins before getting my bingsu! I ordered a honeydew yogurt bingsu and it was $20. Inflation may be a little crazy, but this was a little above what I was expecting. It came with about 1/2's worth of honeydew. The bowl was not topped with bingsu, and I felt like there are more melons than bingsu (not ok). There were some sweet cheese pieces inside (yummy), some unsweetened frozen yogurt, and the rest was yogurt flavored bingsu. Although healthy, the bingsu itself was NOT sweet enough and I felt sick after eating so much unsweetened yogurt. I wish they gave us a cup of condensed milk like they do at every other bingsu place... Service was slow and everything is self serve, from getting your bingsu at the front to bussing your tray. I do believe there are other bingsu spots in Bay Area that give a similar experience with more variety and better pricing. I do not look forward to waiting almost 30min after spending $20 for a bingsu that's only half bingsu with honeydew layered on top.

I grew up in Kauai, so I'm pretty picky when it comes to Hawaiian shaved ice. Ever since moving to…read moreCalifornia, I've been trying to find a place that actually tastes like home, and Pau Hana absolutely nailed it. This is by far the most authentic shaved ice I've had outside of Hawaii. The texture of the ice is perfect, the flavors are spot on, and getting it with condensed milk and macadamia nuts takes me right back to the islands. One thing that really stood out is that they source their ingredients from Hawaii. Their li hing mui powder is the real deal--the best I've found anywhere in California. The first time I came in, I asked if I could buy some because it was that good. They said they would've loved to, but they didn't have any extra at the time. Fast forward to today--I came back with my fiancée and asked again, and they actually remembered. They had some set aside for me and wouldn't even let me pay for it. That kind of customer service is incredibly rare. I didn't catch the owner's name, but he was genuinely kind and went out of his way to make our day. They've earned customers for life. If you're from Hawaii and miss the real thing, or if you've never had authentic Hawaiian shaved ice before, you need to come here. I recommend Pau Hana to everyone I know!

If you are craving a sweet treat stop by here for their Hawaiian shaved ice. I was really carving a…read moremango bobo, but they aren't offering it on this block so this is the next best thing. Inside they have a little bench for you to wait for your order. When I arrived it was being taken by 3 people already. Seating is quite non existent. There is one cement bench out front that was being half occupied by a woman so I sat my husband down next to her to wait for me as I ordered inside. Mango is my favorite so I ordered a Mangonada- Mango syrup, Mango ice cream buried on the bottom, diced mango on top, chamomile, Tajik, and tamari a straw. This treat is a little spicy and sweet. I wish there was more mango pieces. I felt it was quite skimpy. I ordered this just for the mangos. The shaved ice was perfectly syruped. There wasn't any white shaved ice peeking out. Under the shaved ice was the mango ice cream. How it was placed you had to eat most of the shaved ice before you can reach the ice cream. Today was only a high of 79 so it wasn't too hot out. Thus I didn't have an issue with it melting too fast. Actually it was only 77 when I ordered it so it didn't melt at all. Parking wasn't too challenging as today is a Sunday. Plus the meters don't run on Sunday so parking is free. We parked around the block in front of J town Pizza. A hop skip and jump.

The cafe does feel a bit cramped and the shape of the building enhances everyone's conversations by 10x so it's always loud inside. But the shave ice (bingsu) here is so delicious, smooth, and the wait isn't too bad if it's not a busy night. My party ordered my personal favorites: matcha red bean and injeolmi. The matcha red bean is probably the best flavor on the menu. The earthy flavors pair so well together and it's not too sweet. The injeolmi bingsu isn't very sweet either but it is on the drier side. I usually just ask the employees for extra condensed milk to pour over. There's a reason it's always packed in here!

My only note is that I wish the layer on top was a bit thicker for a creamier texture. Even so, the quality and consistency keep me coming back.
