The Story

The vibrant colors and sweet scents of that cozy parlor felt like a skip back to simpler times. Each spoonful of artisanal gelato swirled with the taste of pure island sunshine, perfectly matched by the crispy, warm Belgian waffles. It’s the kind of friendly spot where every treat brings a smile, making a perfect little stop on a Hawaiian afternoon.

    Shave ice today was not as good as other places. Gus’ Shave Ice in a VW microbus nearby had much better flavors and used the same shaving machine. These flavors were not spread well and had fake colors that discolored your mouth. Gelato is good though.

    Usually gelato is smooth and creamy, we tried 4 flavors and all were kind of icey and grainy. The flavors were decent but nothing to write home about. Texture was more like low quality ice cream than gelato. May be worth it for the waffles (we didn’t try) but would skip for gelato unless you’re just craving something sweet.

    Very good! Be advised they said it takes 15 minutes to make a waffle but it's worth the wait! We had the Banana nutella and the peanut butter banana chip. Both were fabulous. Definitely one waffle is good for two people 😉

    Outstanding gelato - this is the real deal! Waffle cones baked fresh on site. They're happy to mix two flavors on any size order, which is really nice! Try the tropical fruit flavors like lilikoi and the lemon ginger gelato! We'll definitely return. Support this small business!
