Waikiki Grass Shack Reviews

This is a must visit cute hidden gem in Waikiki Beach. This is the perfect tropical treat while overlooking the ocean. This drink did not taste like the typical coconut drink that usually has a light texture. It had a thick texture which resembled an arroz con leche (rice pudding) texture with a subtle sweetness. The pineapple was fresh. Nonetheless it was good and refreshing!

I went to four shaved ice places on my trip to Hawaii. The Wakiki Grass Shack had my favorite flavor of all of the flavors I tried. The blue vanilla was so good I kinda wish I had done the whole thing as blue vanilla but instead I split it with another flavor, pineapple. It was still good but the blue vanilla was literally sensational. It's a small location on the beach. The Apple Maps has the location incorrect so I almost didn't find it. It's located on the side of the street where the beach is. It was so nice to just be outside and cool off with a shaved ice.

Everything was great and they were very friendly definitely will come back again for all of our drinks. Nice summer refresher

I would have gave this place a 5 star if they served alcoholic beverages. A small shack that served non-alcoholic beverages, sandwiches/snacks location on the beach. Just a place to grab a quick simple bite if you got hungry while on the beach. Great place just to sit and relax. The pineapple drink I was having cost $15.00.

Whether it's shaved ice or a loco mock, this place has it! Located next to world famous Waikiki Beach, it's a popular spot for tourists. Only steps from the resorts, prices are reasonable and everything is served with the Aloha Spirit! Can't wait to get back and enjoy me some Hawaiian Goodness!

Try the coconut dream! So yummy, creamy, and refreshing. It's served in cute coconut-shaped container with a little umbrella and flower. I wish they served a version of it with alcohol. They close pretty early, so I wish they stayed open later, too.

We have walked by this place so many times and never stopped. Glad we finally did! This was arguably the best poke we had on the island. It is very simple and doesn't offer many add ons.. probably because it doesn't need it! Awesome place to grab a quick bite and sit by the beach to enjoy.

Refreshing Reviews from Visitors
Waikiki Grass Shack has earned praise from its visitors, who often describe the experience as a delightful and refreshing retreat. One reviewer, Katherine F., recalls discovering the restaurant while on vacation, attracted by the sight of people enjoying large pineapples. Initially, she thought it might be like a pina colada, but upon trying it, she found the pineapple and coconut drinks to be wonderfully refreshing, if a bit pricey. Despite the cost, she enjoyed the unique flavor and the refreshing qualities of the drinks.
Another visitor, Christy R., describes Waikiki Grass Shack as a hidden gem with a tropical vibe. She mentions the coconut drink, which she found to be a thicker consistency than most coconut drinks, and compares it to the texture of arroz con leche (rice pudding). She notes the fresh pineapple and appreciates the overall refreshing taste that accompanies the stunning views of the ocean.
For Shayna H., the standout experience at Waikiki Grass Shack was their blue vanilla shaved ice. She had tried several shaved ice places during her Hawaii trip, and this flavor stood out as the best. The sweet, creamy blue vanilla was so impressive that she wished she had tried the entire serving with just that flavor, although the pineapple combo was also tasty.
These reviews reflect the charm of Waikiki Grass Shack, from the tropical flavors to the picturesque setting and friendly service. It’s no wonder why this restaurant continues to be a favorite among locals and visitors alike.

On vacation, we saw some people with big pineapples and we decided to try it!! At first i thought that it could be like a pina colada, it wasn't. We try the pineapple, and the coconut... definitely refreshing, a bit pricey but i enjoyed my pineapple...
