They were catering the Rogue Running Fun Run and Fall Training kick-off, providing shaved ice treats after the run. They came in their mobile truck and they had the menu posted on the side of the truck. They have a bunch of unique gourmet flavors on their menu. I placed my order and you can see them preparing the shaved ice. I ordered the mango and cream shave ice in a medium cup. The shaved ice hit the spot after my long run and the flavors with mango puree and cream were so sweet and fresh. I can't wait to try some of the other flavors!!

Also plenty of parking since it's in Bowling Alley parking lot. The menu is diverse. The staff are cool. The seating, photo ops, games and chalk board are well thought out. I love the vibes for this food truck. We didn't wait long at all and our snow cones were fire! I would always get Mexican rice pudding which was crazy good but this time I tried Thai tea and holy $hi!!! It is amazing!! My mind was blown and I immediately wanted another one the next day. Please. I beg you! Go try it then thank me later.

I wouldn't hesitate to stop at a location nearby. I stuck with a favorite of mine, Watermelon and Cream. Instant brain freeze as I was eating it too fast! I really like their concept, and their product is delicious. They quickly got behind (I had ordered ahead) but there were no worries. People waited patiently for their order. Now if they would add frozen margaritas ..... :-)

The ice was so smooth - smoother than any other shaved ice place we've been to in Austin. I was already planning to get the wedding cake and cotton candy syrups for my icee. Turns out they have a special that combines both and it's called the Barbie. It was meant to be. Right now they're only open on weekends but still worth checking out!

They have an amazing list of flavors, so there's something for literally anyone to enjoy, including sugar free. I've been going to this snow-cone trailer for 20 years. It's changed management a few times, but the current owner has done right with keeping the quality of these snow cones. The employees here are doing their best despite the summer heat, and are so lovely. I commend this place for giving college students a place to work over the summer. If y'all need any recommendations, try the Wedding Cake with cream. The cream here is the best!! Beat the Texas summer heat with Texas Sweet Ice!

I saw the sign that said they are open until dark so I waved to the window and she opened it also I asked when they are open until if we come back tomorrow- even though it's daylight right now. She said usually 8-8:30 but the machine is broken. Imagine an incredibly rude tone though. While she's counting all of her dollar bills at the window for everyone to see. How disappointing.

They have a wide variety of different flavors you can choose, but I always enjoy the "First Dance" snow cone with strawberry and wedding cake flavors and cream. Their cup sizes are huge, so their small sized cup is always enough for me. Always a refreshing treat during Austin's hot summers.

Hana Organic Shaved Ice is a Hawaiian-style shaved ice spot that's worth trying…read more What stood out most is that they make all their syrups in-house, and the flavors aren't overly sweet like a lot of other places. The ice is super fluffy and light, not thick or crunchy, which makes a big difference. Parking is decent, but there's no real seating, so we had to stand and enjoy it due to the limited space. It's in a nice quiet area with a couple of shops nearby. The wait wasn't too long for it either! Overall, it was a solid experience and worth trying, though it's a bit far from where I'm usually at, so I probably won't go often.

I love that this is a Hawaiian shaved ice spot because the shaved ice is very fruity and not as sweet as traditional shaved ice. I love that there's even milk, so the ice is so creamy. I would definitely come back again, and the branding/concept is so cute!

I was able to redeem the coupon in the app. I placed the order through the drive thru and then presented my coupon from the app at the window. I ordered the small sno with cherry and cream flavors.

Service was quick and friendly, and the whole place has that bright, beachy vibe that instantly puts you in a good mood. If you haven't taken advantage of their birthday treat yet, it is a great deal!
