It is truly an experience to work with Chef Pete Coleman. I was planning a girl's trip in Oceanside, CA. The first time my friends and I have seen each other since the pandemic. I wanted to plan something nice for us our first evening after a full day of traveling. During my first conversation with Chef Pete he listened and immediately caught my vibe and began making menu recommendations. Everything he recommended was right on par. Only one change had to be made a little later in the process but he was so very flexible. Chef Pete and April were prompt upon arriving to the location. Their attire was of culinary professionalism. They were attentive, attuned to our needs. The food was exquisite. Each course filled with so much flavor. The wine pairings were phenomenal. My only negative is probably only how rowdy my crew and I got towards the end of the amazing dinner. The food was spectacular, the drinks were flowing and the music we piped in had us in high spirits. I only hope Chef Pete and April will consider having us again.

See all

Who would have thought we would find super yummy shaved ice in Carlsbad?! As good as Hawaii! Not…read moretoo sweet and some great flavors! Finely shaved ice and syrup that wasn't too sweet. The macadamia nut ice cream had lots of macadamias and they were nice and crunchy. The coconut whip was super good! They had color changing spoons too! So fun! Lots of great goodies to shop for too! Found some cool gifts and snacks. They even sell poke! Quaint little place with outdoor seating only . Liked the open windows. Service was great. Young man was patient and answered questions and gave suggestions.

A slice of tropical heaven in Carlsbad!…read more I've been to my fair share of Hawaiian shaved ice spots on the mainland but nothing--and I mean nothing--comes close to the magic they serve up here. One word: DREAMSICLE. I don't know what kind of sorcery they're working with, but this flavor tastes like childhood joy and beachside sunsets blended into a cup. It's perfectly creamy, citrusy, nostalgic, and refreshing all at once. I am not in Carlsbad often, but I know that the next time I'm headed to San Diego I am going to stop by and try more of their creations. But what really makes Aloha Ice special isn't just the incredible flavors--it's the people. The staff here are absolute gems. I came with a group of 6, a few kids, and a few indecisive adults. The employees were so genuinely patient, kind, and enthusiastic through the whole thing. No eye rolls, no rush--just warm smiles and helpful suggestions. Everyone ended up ordering shaved ice that they loved! It's rare to find a place that nails both quality AND hospitality, but Aloha Ice does it effortlessly. Whether you're a local or just passing through Carlsbad, don't miss this spot. Pro tip: get the Dreamsicle. You can thank me later!
