Such a fun spot! Their shave ice is quality and their flavors and not over sweet. They don’t have any indoor seating and I could see this place getting busy so...

I tried a few shaved ice shops while in Kauai. This one by far was the best. The island nectar was delicious and I had to come back a few times before the trip...
