Had to wait a couple minutes for the lady to finish someone's order (since it's only one person, be patient!) They gave me a buzzer and within 4 minutes my dessert was ready. This dessert is huge, definitely made for two people I think. I ate half, and saved the rest to take home. It is so delicious. The ice cream, the topping and the mangos were sweet. I will definitely be coming back another time to try more flavors.

The BEST bingsu I've ever had! Came here once before this trip and though Yelp said they were open,…read morethey were unfortunately closed. Finally came back a year later an hour after they opened and was so happy that they were open and ready to take orders. You place an order and they give you a buzzer for when your bingsu is ready. It took some time but it was well worth the wait! You can walk around the other restaurants/ food trucks while you wait. The mango was sweet and not tart whatsoever. The condensed milk evenly coated the ice and the ice was the softest texture. Each bite was heavenly and had me craving the next bite. If you have a sweet tooth, I highly recommend this spot!

Sometimes I'm not even looking for shave ice, but then it finds me lol. Rainbow House Shave Ice in…read moreKahuku is one of them and is a keeper on my go to list. I've noticed that the local vendors a bit off the beaten path in Oahu often turn out to be the best spots to try local favorites, so I figured this one had to be a gem. SHAVED ICE: 10/10 SERVICE: 9/10 AMBIANCE: 9/10 SHAVED ICE: 10/10 I don't usually care much for shave ice, but this one felt different. The ice is super soft and fluffy, not like the crunchy, gritty stuff you sometimes get. The flavor was really clean and vibrant and did not taste artificial. I tried the Waiola special, and it was EVERYTHING. Those portions were perfect. I love how they put a scoop of ice cream in the center of the mountain of shaved ice. Each bite was paired nicely with either mochi bites or vanilla ice cream. The menu was massive, ranging from acai bowls, smoothies, shakes, sundaes, etc., with so many yummy selections, and I was so indecisive on what to pick. They do both the classic flavors and some more creative combos. But the Waiola special was perfect. SERVICE: 9/10 The place has a laid-back, aloha feel. We did not experience a wait and were actually the only ones there, which is great as I heard this place can get packed. AMBIANCE: 9/10 The vibe is super relaxed with open-air, shaded seating, and very casual. It's the kind of place you stop at during a North Shore trip just to cool off, soak in the sun, and treat yourself. Parking: Pretty easy, which is a big plus when you're driving around Kahuku. I came in thinking shave ice was "just okay," but Rainbow House changed my mind. Their shave ice is genuinely memorable... light, flavorful, and fun. If you're anywhere near Kahuku or just driving the North Shore, this is absolutely a stop worth making.

Dare I say we were spoiled by the best on our first go?? Laura makes all her syrups herself from real fruit.

Bonus that we got to meet her very sweet senior doggo who was making the rounds on the patio. Love the truck and the woman behind the magic! Such a great find! Mahalo!!

This is the tastiest, most delightful shaved ice my family has ever had. My son demanded that I leave a 5 star review ASAP. Full of flavor with no shortcuts taken. Stop by, if it's nearby, stop by. And even if it's a drive and a little out of your way, stop by! You won't regret it. The cream on top isn't just the delicious coconut foam; each delightful bowl is served up with the kind nature and warmest aloha from Laura. We'll definitely be back.... In just a few hours even.

On top of that, it's overpriced--$7 for the base and an extra $1.50 per topping adds up quickly. The flavor selection is also pretty limited, which is disappointing given the cost.

We had a pineapple banana smoothie and it was so delicious and refreshing--it's the perfect treat for a warm day! You can order your drink in a cup or in a pineapple and we chose the pineapple.

I visited this famous spot last week while in Hawaii with my wife, and it honestly did not live up…read moreto the hype. We ordered the Spicy Shrimp and the Shrimp Scampi plates, and neither was impressive. The food came out almost instantly, which proves it is not cooked to order. Because it sits around, the shrimp is incredibly difficult to peel. Anyone who cooks shrimp knows that if you do not peel it right after cooking, the shell sticks to the meat, which was exactly the case here. The Spicy Shrimp had a decent kick, but it lacked actual flavor. The Shrimp Scampi was better but still bland. Honestly, 9 out of 10 shrimp places back home in Southern California make a better plate. To make things worse, the two ladies managing the truck were rude. My wife asked for extra napkins, not realizing some were already in the bag. The worker snapped back, "Are those not enough?" and made her feel super awkward. We also asked for a cup of ice to go with our canned sodas. They flatly refused and told us to ask another truck nearby. Luckily, the other truck owners were much nicer and gave us the ice. Save your time and money. There are much better, friendlier options out there.
