Our usual shaved ice place is closed on Sundays, and a quick search led us to Hokulia. This place…read moreis great. They sell shaved ice, ice cream, and smoothies. I had a simple short board (small) shaved ice with strawberry colada syrup. The ice was perfectly snowy, not hard and crunchy. The syrup had serious flavor and was very satisfying. Two persons in our party tried the ice cream and had good things to say. There are so many options in this shop that it will require repeat visits.

I got the shaved ice cream here! Matcha flavor…read more First off I will say you should bring at least 1 other person here. Don't be like me and come alone! This is a huge portion of ice cream. You could probably split one among 4 people. It's also a cute place to hang out, pretty pastel and wood cozy interior. I really liked the shaved ice cream! The texture was light and fluffy and while it reminds me of bingsoo, it's creamier because it's cream instead of milk I think? Overall it ended up being quite rich, especially with all the whipped cream, and the matcha flavor is a little too sweet. Next time I'll probably try a fruity flavor (and bring friends). I think this place is worth trying at least once! Really unique ice cream that I haven't seen or tried elsewhere.

The attention to detail and decor in the space is very fun and thoughtful, with a photo booth and plenty of pictures of their offerings! There is also plenty of seating in the space, and it seems to be kept clean. My friends and I always make sure to get a bingsu and at least one other dessert, we especially love the taiyaki! I would definitely recommend sharing a bingsu, as it is pretty large to eat by yourself. Additionally, they have a wide array of offerings on the menu, and plenty from drinks to ice cream and other desserts.

I've tried this place 3 times to give it a chance, but it is truly awful…read more One time, there was barely any syrup in my shaved ice at all. So, I paid extra for more syrup next time thinking it would help. Instead, they filled a cup with syrup and put a tiny scoop of ice on top. I thought it was a full cup when I walked away, but I took one bite and there was nothing left but syrup. Not good! Run! To top it off, their staff consists of a bunch of chatting teens who seem irritated to have to do anything.

These days I'm loving sour apple & strawberry with sour spray. They have an extensive flavor selection so you're bound to find one to your liking. Each summer when we head to Lilo's for the first time my husband makes the same bad joke: "I'll take a medium shaved ice...plain." Terrible, I know, but it's a tradition now. The shack is in a parking lot, so plenty of parking. And the line moves pretty quickly. Tables and chairs can be rather sticky, but many of the satisfied customers are little ones. Give a kid a cup full of sugar and that's what you get. Sticky surfaces with a side of summer joy. Wouldn't want it any other way.

I got a milk tea with boba and the custard bao buns (they were too cute to resist!). Really liked how you can customize your drink by choosing ice and sweetness levels. The custard buns were warm, the custard wasn't overly sweet, and overall had a nice balance. Definitely planning to return soon to try the pork bao. When I went it was a single person working, he was really nice, but it can be a little wait if there is a crowd.
