T C Hawaiian Ice - Hollis

One of the biggest servings of ice cream I've ever had. And I ordered a small lol. The service was good. Nice place

Pricey compared to traditional shave ice, but portions are big and you can share . Real fruit with just the right amount of sweetness. I couldn't stop eating eventhough it was 9:30 at night and I had just had a full meal. I prefer this to ice cream not only because I'm lactose intolerant but because it's lighter, healthier, and tastes better to me! Monster ice is finely shaved and melts in your mouth. Sooo good l! Not many flavors to choose from so it's much easier than ordering shave ice. Normally I don't go for strawberry flavor because it often tastes artificial but this one is the bomb and somehow tastes more like strawberry than real strawberries. Mango was also very good. Both had chunks of real fruit in the dish in addition to the syrup. I might have to change my routine and get strawberry next time!

I was excited to get shaved ice in Hawaii, and this place lived up well to my expectations. Fast service from the counter, and you can watch the machines make your shaved ice right there. I appreciate that the shaved ice is flavored all the way through; I know some places just drizzle syrup over plain shaved ice and it leaves some ice unflavored. The place is nice and modern, featuring artwork of its mascot, and there were plenty of tables inside the air conditioned building.The mango sensation tasted really good! A yogurt center and real mango chunks compliment the actual shaved ice.

Yummy yummyServiceSpeed demon modeAmbianceIts really casual and a bit sticky on the floorFoodGot the Mango sensation, oh ya its good. They put the boba on the side which is nice bc i did not want any of that. It's solid and i would come againAlso there's so much space here lol it's crazy

Decided to try this place after seeing a 15% off offer in Oahu's best coupons which I found at a stands (you can find it online too! . Greeted warmly by the staff, Ava. She helped us decide between the matcha and the mango, by letting us know that the matcha was more of the traditional sweet, but she could make the mango more sweet by adding condensed milk. Ended up deciding on the matcha snow since I usually don't see black sesame sorbets offered with snow so that was unique to me. Got a small size which honestly for me was a good size to share between 2 people after a hearty dinner. I liked all of the stuff that came with the matcha snow, with the black sesame sorbet, panna cotta, condensed milk, and boba. I really appreciate that they put the warm fresh boba in a separate cup from the ice--that way the snow doesn't melt faster and the boba doesn't harden as fast. The black sesame sorbet was my favorite part of the whole sdidn't skimp on the strong sesame taste, one of my favorite sweet flavors, and it also wasn't gritty that sometimes makes sesame difficult to swallow. The snow itself was smooth and finely shaven. Would've preferred more matcha flavor as it tasted more watery than I expected. Also, the price is a little steep for dessert, but at least there's the coupon, the food tastes great, and the staff were nice. All in all, it hit that craving for Taiwanese shaved ice. Great way to end the night!
