    This location is at N. King in the same center as Jollibee. I didn't realize they had a S7-Icy Bubble here until I was in the parking lot and spotted it. I came in and got two drinks. I ordered the Mango Icy Bubble an Li Hing Mango. I didn't check the drinks before I left, but they made me a Li Hing Pineapple instead of the Mango. I drank it, since we had already left and didn't feel like going back. The Li Hing Pineapple turned out to be very good, better than the Mango Icy Bubble. Both drinks had huge chunks of fruit that were sitting on the bottom of the cup, because they couldn't fit through the straw. The drinks came in the cutest S7 bag. They also sell cheap little items as with all of their stores.

    What a hidden gem tucked away in the plaza! I didn't know this establishment existed until I was actively searching for a new boba place to try on Yelp and somehow stumbled upon this place. This shop clearly knows how to cater to my love for cute things! The shop interior is very colorful and welcoming. I also can't get over the chibi baristas that adorn their windows and cup holders. What intrigued me the most about this place, however, was their unique menu. They had flavors that weren't available in other milk tea shops. We ordered the Acai Milk Tea ($4.75) and this purple taro milk tea drink (I can't seem to remember the name of it, but its the one with sesame, nuts, and cereal!!!). Both drinks were very delicious! The Acai Milk Tea shined because of the strong tea flavor that was present from the moment the milk tea hits your tongue. The nutty flavor from the purple milk tea was also TO DIE FOR! I really appreciated the creativity and how the flavors blended so unexpectedly well together. Not only did their drinks blow me away, but their service was really hit home run for me. I ordered another of the purple taro milk tea to-go for a friend and they packaged it so nicely! The milk tea had its own little container to keep it in place in the beautiful bag. They also made sure to place a packet of tissues adorned in those cute chibi characters. The employees here really go the extra mile to make sure their customers are well taken care of, and that we leave the establishment happy. The only complaint I have is that the music is a bit too loud for my liking. It's also important to note that their drinks are on the sweeter side so what may be a 75% elsewhere, should be reduced to 50% here. I haven't tried it yet, but this place also serves rolled icecream and other desserts. I will definitely come back here again to try those! 10/10 would recommend!

    Their acai milk tea is my go to! Classic milk tea with boba & cheese foam! It's soooo gooood! They put my drinks in a cooler bag which was awesome because it was hot today and it kept the drinks nice and cold with no sweats until I reached my destination! Also gave my free playing cards and some tissues! Customer service is nice and they have all kine stuff to look at while waiting for your order. Definitely coming back whenever I'm craving boba.

    In store prom that business did not honor.

    Be wary of participating in deceptive advertised promotions as business does not honor promotions they advertise in-store. Disappointed at the lack of customer services, dishonesty and non-responsiveness. Participated in the summer $45 promo card which comes with a free drink a day and after the month ends, the promotion includes $50 credit to use at the store after submission of a review. I participated in two months of this promotion. After the first month the staff gave me an email to send my review to receive to which I did send to given email address. After a week of not hearing back I resent the email. No response was ever given. I did follow-up with the female store manager who said they would follow-up (she was very nice and no longer works there as of September). I did go back and leave my contact information with staff to follow-up with management but have yet to receive any communication with the current store manager and/or management. To be fair, I do like the drinks, but I do not want to give my money to a company that does not respond and follow-up with a customer inquiries or honor advertised promotions. Everyone head down the street to support other asian boba drink places. There are many popping up and not far from this location.

    Ugh... I really wished it could've been better but due to unforeseen circumstances it was pretty junks. Kind of doesn't make me wanna go back any time soon as it was disappointing. The last time I've been to this store had to have been more than a few years ago and I don't remember it being bad. I rolled in on a Thursday a few months ago around 1030am, opening time. I was eyeing the 'Lychee Blush' and 'Peach Glow' drinks advertised in the window. They looked super delicious. I went into the store and there was only one worker working. I asked about those drinks I mentioned. The worker said they were currently unavailable as the shop just opened. Oh no... *sad face* I asked about another tea drink and she said it would take like 30 minutes to make. She asked if I wanted to wait. So after learning that information I asked what teas were available now (with no wait)? She told me the 'Acai Milk Tea'. So then I asked if there was boba. Sadly... again she told me no, as there was no boba made yet. *heart breaking* She did mention there was rainbow jelly. So I chose that for my drink. And then I waited on the side. As I waited for my drink, I overheard her conversation on the phone. With who I'm assuming is the boss? It was in Mandarin. Something like "the worker that was scheduled for this morning did not show up". I'm assuming it was this person's job to open the shop and prep all the ingredients that were not made yet? That "it was a few days of no call no show for their scheduled shifts". So after learning about this, I understand the reason behind the lack of preparedness upon the opening of the store and the limited items available. And I understand what the poor worker had to deal with. As after I ordered a bunch of people rolled in to order drinks. It's not easy having to walk into a situation like that without proper coverage and support. When I got my drink and sampled it, I realized it was mochi and not rainbow jelly... *sigh* Overall it was sort of a sad and disappointing experience. I don't blame the worker. But as a company there needs to be better management to prevent situations like this for their workers. Shift coverage is important. So is brand representation.

    Icy bubble sure made a name for themselves. I remember going to the icy bubble in Pearl City years ago. One of my favorite things to get is their afternoon delight and sunrise surprise. Depending on the mood, I'll get one or the other. Today, I decided to get the banana Nutella smoothie. I love Nutella and it taste just like their ice cream rolls that they made before. My favorite part is the Nutella walls they add. It's a nice touch and brings out the Nutella taste. One of my favorite things about icy is their random items for sale. From toys, to kitchen items, cords, and so much more. Also, the price is a bargain! Honestly every thankful for icy and their business!

    Here is my honest review: S7-Icy Bubble @ 555 N King St is located where Jollibee is (that area). It's not that noticeable [Maybe some kind of neon lighting would help? But that might be costly] Inside: They sell some inexpensive merchandises but not all were of my interest. I took pictures of the ones that might be ok to buy. Other than that I suggest limiting the inventory to make the shop look more spacious. It would be nice if there were tables and chairs instead (with Wi-Fi and background music [how's Kpop? ^^,] and that might attract more customers in my opinion. The menu has a good amount of selections and I tried Midnight Milk Tea w/ boba (100% sweet) and Wintermelon Milk Tea w/ lychee jelly minus the boba (100% sweet) as I have included on the pictures. If you don't like your drinks on the sweeter side, I recommend lowering it down to at least 75%. The drinks and toppings were not bad at all (I can't complain). I'm down to try other selections next time! Staff members were pleasant, so keep up the friendliness and have confident on your skills! All in all the improvements that I mentioned above must be implemented. Lesser merchandise would be better and also always keep them organized (you wouldn't want it looking like Walmart on a Black Friday sale). Anywho see you guys on the next business day! ;)

    When I ordered this glass of watermelon juice, I found that the color was not as correct as before. I reported to the clerk that the watermelon juice was wrong, but they thought the milk covering fell off and told me it was okay, and when I drank it, it tasted sour, bitter, and numb!

    S7 is one of my daughter's favorite boba places. This location is in a rather sketch area, unfortunately, but the drinks are delicious! There's a large menu selection of drinks from milk teas, smoothies and non-dairy selections. Some drinks come with boba and the prices are hard to beat! They sell miscellaneous items, such as compact fans, pop sockets, pens, notebooks, etc. it's a cute store! A few of our favorites are the Aloha Taro (smoothie), Acai milk tea, midnight tea & mango smoothie. We got a cute lunch cooler bag with our drinks (assuming it's for drink orders that exceed 2 or 3+). The drinks are consistently great and the workers are nice. Can't quite go wrong when the results are on point and staff are friendly.

    Christine L.

    This was my first visit here and I am in love with this place already! I love bubble tea and little knick knacks. This place really delivered! I ordered the coffee smoothie with boba and regular sugar. It was so yummy!! Not over sweet. No aftertaste. Just perfect coffee taste and boba ratio was just right. Lots of cute finds here. From Sloth socks to headphones to puzzles! Lots of parking on a Saturday early afternoon. Same parking lot as Jollibee Chicken and Jiffy Lube.

If not, just ask and the owner will try and get it for you. They get new merchandise in regularly so it's worth stopping in to see what's new. They have a great page on Facebook that shows a lot of what they have as well as new arrivals.

This store is located on a very busy corner of Piikoi and Young streets. If you are coming from the west and set your GPS, it will take you east on S King street, turning left on Piikoi, then left into the Daiso parking lot. Do not follow these directions! You cannot make a left turn into the parking lot because they have it chained off and closed. The only entrance to the parking lot is on Young Street. If you turn left on Young from Piikoi, you cannot turn left into the parking lot because there is a huge no left turn sign. I had to go down Young then turn around by Longs. Talk about frustrating. Finally got to the parking lot and saw a couple of open spaces. It is a small lot and spaces are pretty tight. There are signs saying to wait for the attendant as he directs cars. If there are no spaces available at the moment, you sit and wait for the attendant to direct you. Fortunately, I was able to grab one of the last 2 available spaces. From the outside, the store looks small but once you walk in and turn to the right, the aisles stretch the length of the building. The store is well stocked and clean. Somehow in this small space, they manage to not only pack in so many items but seems neater and more organized. I found what I was looking for which were silicone covers for bowls. The cashier that helped me was very nice and friendly and she did confirm that this location is smaller than the Pearl City store. Overall, I had a good experience here except for entering the parking lot. Best thing for next time if coming from the west, instead of coming down S. King St, come down Young St heading east and then turn right into the parking lot.

Don Quixote? The titular protagonist of Miguel de Cervantes' 17th-century Spanish novel, often considered the first modern novel? No, not him. Side-quest unlocked: Go to Don Quijote to looks at Trader Joe's-like bags and peruse affordable macadamia nuts. Imagine if a Japanese convenience store, Costco, Walmart, Japanese pop culture, and a late-night snack gremlin all moved into one building and decided to co-habilitate. That's Don Quijote, or as locals lovingly know it: Donki. Don Quijote is Japanese discount megastore in Honolulu where you walk in for one bottle of water and somehow leave an hour later with Japanese cheesecake, body wash, a rice cooker, novelty socks, a plush penguin, Spam musubi, an ankle brace, and at least one item that made you say, "Well, I've never seen that before." Every aisle is an adventure. It's part grocery store, part pharmacy, part souvenir shop, part beauty supply, part snack paradise, and part "why are they selling this and why do I suddenly need it?" The shelves are packed to the ceiling, the signage is loud, the deals are good, and the whole place feels like a treasure hunt designed by someone who drank three Red Bull Kyoho Grapes and said, "More products! More fun! No empty shelf space!" The Honolulu location is also gloriously open 24 hours, which means it serves a very specific and beautiful type of chaos: jet-lagged tourists like myself, night owls craving Japanese curry, and people making questionable but spiritually necessary 1:11 a.m. purchases. TL;DR, Don Quijote is less of a store and more of an experience. A slightly overwhelming and delightfully unhinged retail adventure.

The staff here was nice as I browsed around with many of the items are collectors dream the prices actually are quite nice and with the Pokémon Championship coming into town places like this is a gem and a great place to shop at and many must scavenge around here as I can see why. Thank you!

    More and more Funkos!! This craze is never ending, especially with Marvel/Disney pumping out…read moreanything and everything. You see Funkos everywhere, but there's only a few places where you can buy and sell, and this store might be the only ones that carry brand new Funkos as well. Let's welcome a new store to Hawaii that keeps us adults young at heart, The Scavenger's Vault. I first saw this store when I went to Mei Sum across the street as I saw a wall of Funkos through the clear glass. I had no idea what exactly it was, but someone posted about this store, and I was there the next day! The Scavenger's Vault is a small Funko specialty store that really has a wide variety of items that are brand new, hard to find, and probably some secondhand. You won't know it because ALLLLL the Funkos are specially encased in a quality plastic case with the store's name imprinted on top. Immediately there, you can see the care and pride the owners take for their items. Everything was super organized, clean, and easy to see. All the prices are very fair. Better than other places. And the variety is better! Better than the "other" store 5 minutes away. I seriously never bought anything from that store after several visits, but on my first visit to The Scavenger's Vault, I bought something! The owners are very friendly and nice, and kindly explained to me their business. They also have a stall at the Aloha Stadium swap meet and participate in various events. Overall, this store is awesome. Owners are great, and take pride and care for their Funkos. I really want to go again, but I do need to cut back on this stuff lol.

    Marukai is that spot where you can find products from Japan that aren't mainstream, but are…read moreabsolutely delicious. I enjoy the seafood and the meats are absolutely prime cuts. I haven't tried their hot and ready foods, but the foods that we get to cook with are top notch in quality and value. Hubs is one of those guys who will drive the cart and add what he sees and wants to try, so when I just need one or two things, I leave him home. What can I say, sometimes willy nilly shopping can get expensive! The staff are all friendly and helpful and they have spotlighted areas in Japan which rotate regularly. If you want to know what area they are spotlighting, I suggest getting on the digital mailer so you can see the sales and specials. If you are a fan of wagyu and kurobota pork, this is your spot. When I make sweet and sour spare ribs, this is the only place that I can find the ribs cut long way (makes for more meat and easier eating). If you are a fan of hot pot, they have soups ready to go. They also have veggies and noodles premade and all the cuts of meat for that shabu shabu experience. The construction on the rail makes the entrance a little tricky depending on what side of the island you are coming from, just know there is a back entrance behind the gas station.

    This store has a lot of products, food, and drinks to choose from. So much great food and…read moredrinks...my goodness! The hot foods and cold foods like the sushi...amazing! I really enjoy the hot food line they have. Everyday there's different dishes they have you can purchase for plate lunches. The store is pretty clean. The only thing is that the store needs to have the floor fixed and redone. The floor has cracks all over the store. Plus the floors are uneven. If you leave your shopping cart unattended, you may see your cart rolling off in different directions due to the uneven floor. The staff is friendly and helpful.

They told me to park in the Pantheon Garage, same building as the store as well as other businesses. Address for the Pantheon Garage is 71 South Pauahi St. The entrance is located off Pauahi Street, a side street. Guest parking is available on the first floor only. You turn into a narrow lane and there is directions and a card scanner on the left side of the wall. You need to scan your credit card to enter the garage. When I scanned my card it said $10. It doesn't give you a parking ticket but make sure you know the license plate number for your car. Downside, parking is limited and stalls are narrow. Once you park, look for the corridor which brings you out onto Fort Street Mall. Exit, turn right and right again then you will see Daiso. A security guard is stationed in and around the garage at all times. After you make your purchase at Daiso, be sure to let them know you parked in the Pantheon Garage and give them your license number. You will be refunded for your parking payment. The charge will show up as pending but after a day or two it will be refunded. To exit the garage, just drive up to the gate and it will automatically open.

I found the store bright, clean, well organized, and packed with a surprising variety of Japanese designed items. It's not a huge store, but they manage to fit a lot inside. Overall, the experience feels like a bit of a treasure hunt. You can find useful office supplies, household items, toys, and small gifts at reasonable prices, and sometimes you're pleasantly surprised by the quality. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the store itself is well maintained.
